I use the small white ones in a bathroom to hold the ribbons back for the shower curtains and I've also used the larger white ones (size of hook is determined by pound strength) to hold up portable fluorescent lighting strips. Both are used on surfaces I didn't want damaged and they've been great. Haven't budged since I put them up. If it was my house, debra, they are what I would use for the netting and try to never nail through the siding. Kindly, Jane

Thought I'd update. Got Windows installed without a hitch, Dell talked me through it. I debated whether to put Win 7 in since I was starting from scratch but worried some of my software might not work Everything went well except I couldn't find drivers for some things such as my wireless adapter so couldn't get on line. Called Linksys and they spent over an hour trying to get the driver in and finally did. That was the best part, finally getting on line and getting hit with a zillion MS updates. I have misplaced or lost some software. We moved here in March and I could not locate my Office disk, wireless mouse/keyboard software and a few other things, might have gotten lost in the move. I'm most concerned about Office 07. I paid for it. Dell says they can't help and I could try contacting MS and see if they would do anything. I haven't moved any of my files back yet. Otherwise, I feel like the computer runs better than when it was new. Things seem different, have to fool with fonts and views, but I'm amazed how effortlessly the machine runs. This computer always seemed to have a few 'glitches' but I was used to it. Now it seems so fast and smooth (of course there isn't much running on it yet.) I don't know how to thank everyone for all the support and help I received. You are the best friends anyone could ever ask for. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks! Thanks from the bottom of my heart... Jane

What a great post! Boxerpups-your insite and especially pictures NEVER come across as know-it-allness. I could have totally broken rule #7 if we hadn't remodeled our basement 5 years ago with the idea it would be done in time for relatives visitng! Ha! But I know I need to revisit these rules regularly until we are done.

I have not used Command strips, but I have a new door and was concerned about scratches from my holiday wreath on a windy day. My solution was to hot glue pieces of felt to the back on my wreath and my wreath hangar to protect the door. So far,so good.
