Hello! Just wanted to see if I could leave a comment. I have tried to email you on the contact me page twice and have been asked for a word verification and both times it said I entered the wrong one.
It looks like I'm able to leave a comment. I've never had any problems or had to do word verification. I'm signed in under my Google acct for Blogger, using Internet Explorer.
Okay ... now that we have established that I am able to comment ... Hi! I'm Beth and I just joined your followers. Found my way here via the request for a blog critique. Keep in mind that these are my personal opinions ...
I LOVE the picture of the chair. Looks like somewhere I could sit peacefully and enjoy a book, a cold drink, the warm sunshine, a bit of a breeze, etc. I think I would take that picture and build a blog theme from it. Maybe choose a green, or maybe lilac (from the little flower), for the background color of the blog. Build a header with that chair as the main image. Maybe some grass blowing in the breeze behind it. I have fun playing with ideas like that. Feel free to ignore me. ... Or to ask for my help if you like my ideas! Either one! I promise not to be offended. And if you are a LOVER of pink ... please do not change it on my account!
Moving on ...
It may not be something you have control over if your blog is monetized but the flatter belly ad is on here twice really close to each other.
And I think you would get better results with the friend's widget closer to the top.
All that said ... I LOVE the theme and spirit of your blog and am looking forward to getting to know you! :)
Ahhhh ... really pretty! I like the green MUCH better than the pink! Are you using self hosted WP? The reason I ask is that I use software that allowed me to design my own blog theme. It had suggestions but I was able to tweak and modify to make my blog design more fully my own! It's not terribly expensive and it's really easy to use. It's called Artisteer 2.0 http://www.artisteer.com/ The only thing I'm not sure about is whether or not it is Mac friendly. If you buy it and need some help .... holler at me! Design is not my gift but I do enjoy playing with it!
Okay good..all seems to be well and better. It appears maybe the real problem was my contact me page. Now that I deleted that, maybe all will be well. Thanks for everyone's help and input!
