I have today resigned my position with the staff at Armorama, and will finish working on features sent in by members on the 19th of June. I request that any members sending in features from this point on send them to Henk or Rick. I will remain on the site and wish Armorama well, and I would like to take the time to thank all the members who have sent in features to Armorama while I was working in that area.

Darren,
I would like to say a public thanks for all the hard work since joining the staff. I wish you the best and hope you continue to share your knowledge and expertise with the community.

Obviously we will be looking for someone (or several folks) to join the Armorama staff. More on that in a future post.

Best wishes,
Jim

I think we are all surprised and saddened, but maybe this change will give you more free time for building kits and smelling the roses. Onward! Good luck and sincere thanks for everything!

Darren,

your resignation is not very encouraging.

Your matter-of-fact way has been being a great assett for the staff and this site and I hope that you stay aboard.



Let's see...

...here it is...

...yours (don't worry - it is really luke-warm)...

...and mine (cooled of course).

I am paying.


Skoal Mr. Baker.
