I was cleaning the nib, when it slipped and stabbed the top of my hand. I jerked it away and it went flying. When it landed it stabbed me AGAIN an inch from the first stab wound! Don't ask me how that even happened, but it did. Now there are two tattoos on the top of my hand visible to everyone everywhere. I have my eternal shame tattoo'd to the top of my hand! Is there any way to get rid of the marks??? I was thinking about making a very small incision around it with a knife, cleaning it, and wrapping it as I do with splinters, but what else could I do that doesn't hurt like heck? Thanks! -Z

Hey, I forgot to cap my fountain pen earlier today and accidentally stabbed myself in the face. What steps can I take now to get rid of it, or will it just fade away over time?

Dearest friends, members, and visitors of the Little Fountain Pen Nut House on the Digital Prairie, Another piece of important news today for FPN: our Library skin is back! Look at the bottom left of any page here, and you will see an option called "Change Theme". Theme is the new name for a skin. Click on "Change Theme", and select "Library" from the list. In case you'd want to change back, just change your theme again, to IP.Board. The new version of the Library skin has quite a few improvements over the old, check for example the forum index list, and your PM box, or Classifieds for that matter. It is all about the goodness and easy viewing qualities of the old Library skin, in a new coat, with all the extra functionality provided by the new board software presented in a much more visible way. A special thanks goes to our own Chris Chalmers, who made a donation specifically to get the old Library skin back. @Chris: it was a long wait, but I reckon it was worth it . Enjoy! Warmest regards, Wim FPN Admin (and skinner )
