The pictures show you've been working quite a bit! Congratulations: You could probably have the admin adjust your title on the avatar to read something like "Recent Graduate of Newness" or "Novice NoMore".
If you attend a gathering and the old timers give you a hazing, I mean warm welcoming....(which I won't reveal what they might do to you or your TD) then you are definitely no longer a newbie. Also, if Newbie status is based upon having completed a teardrop, I shall remain a Teardrop Groupie instead for a long time. That means I've gone to gatherings, met quite a few TDers, and even co-hosted a gathering, but don't personally have a TD of my own....yet. Best wishes and perhaps our paths will someday cross. Check out the IRG website below.
