January 4-10
« on: January 03, 2010, 10:34:31 AM »
Our first talented artist Seedlings!  She is a fabulous jewelry artist who has been a HUGE help from the beginning of our little forum family.  Her blog is http://seedlingsjewelry.blogspot.com/  and is really beautifully done.

Your job, as a member of the ring, is to check out her blog and shops and write a post during the week extolling the incredible talents of our seedlings.  Return to this post and link to the article so we can all jump over and ooooh and aaaah over both seedlings and your writing talents and comment on your blog.

That is it for now...so let the fun begin!

seedlings,  I have checked out and blogged about your sites, they are very cool.  I just wish I could steal your badge to stick on my blog for the post 

http://dreamriverdesigns.blogspot.com/2010/01/check-this-site-out.html

someone PLEASE let me know if this is NOT what is requested of the blog ring,  I don't have a clue about them.  Kinda silly but, that's the way it is  :o

Also, thank you for the blog lurvins and I've added you to my RSS feed reader. I couldn't figure out how to leave comments on your blog though.

I posted about you and your shop Sharon, but I couldn't copy and paste photos tonight. I've been having puter problems lately, so I'm sure that's where the problem lies. Anyway, you can see what i wrote using my blog link below ...

Okay, here goes. I just started my blog yesterday as it was my new year's resolution to do so. Therefore it is in very rough shape because I have never done a blog before and don't know much about them. BUT, I did do the featured shop. You can find the review at http://www.redfoxjewelry.com/blog/ . I didn't use any pictures because I wasn't sure if I could grab any from seedling's blog or not. Like I said, I never did this before. But it can still be edited, it's not written in stone.

The general rule is that if someone willingly joins a ring they will allow you to use their pictures.  Heck, who wouldn't want  a bit of free promotion!

Groovy feature, thank you! And yes, unless somebody takes my photo and removes the lil logo or watermark and puts their own, it doesn't bother me what gets used.

I have put a little post on my Facebook page to see if that style of blogging works really...
 I have called it Artisan of the Week.

Hope this is acceptable!

Okay, great! I will grab what I need. I am working on the looks of my blog. This is really hard. I am usually quite saavy with php and css but I can't even find where to change the color of the footer. They don't have very many free templates that you can just install within the program and the other sites that have free templates are even harder to edit.
But I had fun doing the review, and I am glad that you like it! It was my first one, believe it or not!  ^-^

I'm assuming you've already went here http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/ 
I use http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/atahualpa a lot as it has an admin section inside the dashboard wher you can easily change the colors and stuff as I'm a CSS idiot.
Hope this helps.
