I am sorry to say that I really messed up yesterday and uploaded the wrong PDF file.
It was a file containing the Mat Chart and Flash Cards, but they were the unedited ones.
They had all kinds of errors on them.
I was using them as I was testing making a PDF file, so if I screwed up, it would not matter if I somehow lost the work.
I did not want to lose the corrected work.
I had a couple of different PDF files for the Mat Chart on my desktop.
One good and one bad.
I uploaded the wrong one.
I was so happy that everything worked that I didn't even check the file once I finished uploading it.
How embarrassing.
This mess up is one reason why I did not want to charge people for the chart and flash cards.
Graphic Design is fun to work on, but I am by no means a professional at it.
The chart and flash cards are just meant to be a helper for groomers to show an owner of a matted dog, while the groomer adds all the extra detail that they need to.
When I checked my e-mails this morning, the very first blog commenter asked if I was going to fix all of the spelling and grammar errors.
What!!!
Oh No!!
I knew what I had done right away. Grrrrr
All I had time for before work this morning was to remove the error filled file.
My heart also sank when I saw that 49 people had already downloaded that wrong file.
Once again I am so sorry to anyone who already downloaded the file full of spelling and grammar errors.
Here is the new link for the corrected file.
At least I am pretty sure there are no more errors.
I have proof read the darn thing so many times now that I am not even sure anymore.
So much for trying to be helpful to my fellow groomers.
I think that I will stick with grooming. :)
If you already downloaded the file last night, please delete that file and go back and get the Mat Chart and Flash Cards file that does not have errors.
Sometimes I wish that I did drink, because at least that way I could blame being drunk for messing up so badly.
But, I don't drink, so I can't use that excuse. :/
Maybe I have just inhaled too much dog hair in the last 30 years.
That's it!
I'll stick to that excuse for my stupidity. :)
✂ Happy Grooming, MFF ✂
hahaha, thank you LISA!! We love ya regardless of spelling and grammar errors!
ReplyDeleteLisa, this is such a useful resource to educate dog owners about matting. Thank you for sharing it. I'll be sharing your link.
ReplyDelete(There's a variation on the matting theme on my website at http://www.furrynuff.co.uk/the-invisible-straitjacket. Its available as a .pdf. If anyone would like a copy, I'd be happy to email it. Contact me on raona@btinternet.com)
Wow Trudy!
Delete'Invisible straitjacket'......never thought of it that way. That is a great chart! I am very impressed. Anything that would help pet owners to take care of their dogs is great.
