Need help choosing a blind color for my log home?

August 13th, 2010
ashanabu asked:


Any opinions or experience would greatly help. Ordering 2 cellular blinds for the bedroom. It is a log home with warm orange tones. I have narrowed it down to a white (not bright but with a warmish tone in it) and a light fern/sage green. On one hand if I stick with white then it would make redecorating easier down the road. On the other hand the green makes the room just a tad bit darker which would be nice for sleeping. Also it adds some color to the room. They are 2 large windows measuring 90 inches wide. Willing to take other suggestions for instance I was looking at an orangey color that matched the wood but I was thinking that would add too much of one color to the room.. Please answer fast as I am ordering tomorrow afternoon.
I have thought of the wooden blinds but since I’m in a v ery cold climate I thought the cellular (double) will help add extra insulation. Very good suggestions so far!

Do log homes contribute to deforestation?

August 10th, 2010
Michael G asked:


I’ve always been fascinated at the beauty of log homes and dream of owning or building one in the near future, however, I will reconsider if owning such home would contribute to deforestation.

Does anyone know whether or not this will cause deforestation?

Thanks!

Does it make any difference to log out from a website on a home computer?

August 6th, 2010
transorbian asked:


I log into financial websites from my own home computer (which no one else has access to) and I wonder if it makes any difference if I log out when I’m done (they tend to log out automatically after a few minutes of inactivity anyway). I know it “can’t hurt” but does it actually make any difference to go and click the little “Log Out” button(s) each time I’m done?
