I wanted to take a moment and wish everyone here at Solar Voyager a very happy and prosperous new year!

It's been my pleasure to host this community of space artists for the past 7 years and I plan to continue doing so without annoying ads, pop-ups or other distracting junk to detract from the awesome space art.

Please remember that we have a system in place for nominating images in our Member's Gallery forum for inclusion in the Solar Voyager header, so if you see an image that you think is exceptional, please click on the "Nominate" button and let us know that you think it should be featured.

Speaking of the header, many of the beautiful images in our website header are available on ceramic mugs from our Solar Voyager Store over at CafePress.  Please take a look and  see if there is something you'd like.

Finally, I'd like to thank my volunteer staff of moderators, JanL (Jan), Voyager (Maciej), Regulus (Brian) and Reimbrandt (Reimund), who are instrumental in helping keep things here at Solar Voyager running smoothly -- It sure is great to be able to depend on you guys!

Again, Happy 2012 to everyone and let's see what you've been creating!

--and I wish everyone here a wonderful new year too.  Being a moderator here is very easy and that is due to all of you --a great group of very talented folks....Jan

A big thanks to the moderators, and a big thanks to you, Tom, for taking over this web site and keeping it alive through the years. Solar Voyager is a one-of-a-kind community on the web, and I appreciate it for all that it has to offer.

I bought an item from the store, and I encourage our readers to visit it and see if there is anything they like!

Thanks Tom, for doing such a great job! Fahad's right, there really isn't any other place like this I'm just glad to help out

And yeah, go check out the Cafepress store!

Tom you might think about making the "nominate" button a different color or something to catch people's eye?

Happy new year guys!
