I was so happy to be able to buy 2 ribbons this morning! But I was wondering, what does everyone's ribbon stand for? It would be nice, if we could select which cause we want to represent when we buy the ribbon, but it doesn't give us the option.... so, if it's not too personal, what does your ribbon stand for? Which cause do support?

my 2 ribbons are:

lavendar, gynelogical cancer, something I suffered through as a teenager
yellow, military support, in honor of my dad, a retired Lt. Col who has served our country many times.

My yellow one is military support cause you gotta love the men and women who fight for our freedom (even if we dont agree with the reason for the war)

And the USA ribbon is for the men and women who died on 911.

Mine is for the adoptee part mostly (cuz I am one) but also for child abuse because my future nephews have a dead beat mother. Plus, child abuse happens way too often.

I was just happy to buy SOMETHING


I got the gray for Diabetes.

I didn't see one on there for animal shelters and such. They're the paws ribbon.

I don't see yours. Did you make them private?

I think you can if you go into you user CP menu.

Yep go into edit plaza options. Then you can change if you want everything to be hidden or not!

Hmm...nope. That's all set to "No".

I did post in the FAQ, so I'm sure I'll find out soon.

The yellow Ribbon for me is for 2 things.

Cancer (of any type, it is the color of the Canadian Cancer Society's ribbons)
And for our Military personelle serving anywhere in the world.

My yellow ribbon is for Troops Serving anywhere in the world, BUT especially for my Nephew, James, he´s in Afghan, a Royal Marine and its really kicking off at the moment, his unit 45 was involved in some fight over the past few days and they lost a soldier
they went back to rescue him but he had already died, they got his body though

yeah, I was shocked too....I kept thinking, "out of stock?! they're virtual gifts, not real gifts?!" and then this morning....taxes, interest rates, banks?!
I have enough stress in the "real" world.....now I'm stressed about buying virtual gifts.....
