I hope all of you are having a great  holiday, keeping warm and toasty or nice and cool wherever you are! A LOT has happened over the past month so let's get down to business and take a look: Several of our members have left the group as well as the scene due to personal conflicts. Among them are: Arsenik, our former ftp site coordinator, and all around kick-ass ascii artist. Maldoror, our former literature coordinator, and very talented poet. sC (aka Silent Cry), a great coder, who coded one of our earlier viewers (FLiP vision). Terrakomm, who has been a  valuable ansi and ascii artist. We thanks them all for their contributions to the group and wish them luck in their new ventures... Also we have a FLiP member missing in action! Blenderhead, one of FLiP's ansi artists, has mysteriously disappeared. His e-mail address no longer works and we have unfortunately lost contact with him. If anyone knows of his whereaboutsplease have him contact one of the senior members so he can be returned to the memberlist. Sadly, we also learned of the passing of Tourian[BLaDE], a former FLiP artist and sysop of Damage, Inc. [313]. He joined FLiP Productions July 1995 (pack 11) as Scott Summers and left in November (pack 14) as Tourian. He will always be remembered as a very down-to-earth person whose positive attitude and sense of humor made all those around him happy. His untimely death (heart attack at age 21) reminds us how fragile life is and that there are 'real' people behind the 'handles and electronic mail'. Our deepest condolences go out to his friends and family during this holiday season. Luckily there is some good news this month! The Warden has taken the position of Lit Coordinator. He also has a lot of great ideas for FLiP that will soon be implemented in the future. Lysander, the BBS modding coordinator, has made a new website for new applicants of BBS Modding. Please take a look at it on http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/6162/app.html. Starvo, one of our Lit writers, has become the Webheads (HTML) coordinator, currently he is working on helping FLiP out with another site. And speaking of webpages, the FLiP webpage has undergone a massive makeover for this month. It's still under construction as we speak, so be patient. Also available, will be Maldoror's final releases, which were extremely large poetry XM's. If you would like to download them, please check out the ftp site as wellas the webpage very soon. In this pack, the talented coders of FLiP bring various utlities. Votiputox  codes FLiPmail and FLiPfinger internet clients for Windows 95 and Redcoat cranksout a new VGA FLiPapplication generator with mouse support and a new viewer  called FlipSee. Wow! End this year with a BANG!!! Now that we're on the verge of a new year, we will make a point of giving our selves a few New Year's Resolutions. During the next year, FLiP will continue to improve communications and the quality of artwork by implementing some coordinators in several departments. As a member, if you have ideas or  comments, please voice them out... FLiP is a group for the members and encouragemember participation in shaping the future of the group. In the near future, there will be many things to look forward to. There will be a change in the format of the flip member list and info file.Both will be combined into an emag format where members may contribute articles about various topics that spark their interest (email Cat about it...but please,NOT with FLiPmail).  To improve communication between members, the FLiPnet message network will link the various FLiP BBS's together and those members who do not have internet emailaccounts; and also, we will soon have a FLiP mailing list and 'official' IRC  channel for members that frequent the internet. Many great changes will occur as the group gets bigger and expands its scope, and we're happy to have made it this far. We always welcome new ideas and  talent. If you are interested in joining a group where you can share your  talent with others as well as working at your own pace; no need to look further!Fill out an app (with the new appgen), we'd love to see your work. So until next time;}  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
