Thursday Bit O' Beauty
OK, I know this is kinda a cop-out, but today's bit o' beauty is my new template.
Still just one of the basic Blogger templates, since I haven't learned CSS myself yet, but kinda funky.
Hit refresh, or click the title to change the colors.
Very Technicolor, if you ask me.

One thing I really love about Blogrolling is how it allows me to set my preferences to list my links in order of being updated. I just get a kick out of that, seeing what is the freshest. I've noticed that wannabegirl is at the top of this list most frequently lately. I always enjoy the cool things she has found, like the Sandwich Project, to which I added my infamous PB&M (don't worry, I've never made one for anyone but myself). Thanks Firda for a great (IMHO) blog!

I decided to make a Yahoo! Group to display the artwork I've been doing lately. Take a look.
I'm very happy with what I've created this weekend. I really got lost in the creative moment. Don'cha just love when that happens?
But crazy run of bad luck, first I can't get the new graphics to show up on the blog, plus error messages on my template, then after doing a couple more this evening, all of a sudden my monitor is going whacky. Everything looks blue. It comes and goes.
Oh, well, I guess it must be time for my blue period.

BOY!
All these little red X's everywhere is awful annoying!!
I worked all weekend on cool graphics, and I can't show them to anyone.
WAAAaaaa.
I've got them on GeoCities.
Anybody got advice on image hosting??

Working on graphics this weekend. Here's a few:
Now I need to figure out the hosting issue. I haven't found reliable image hosting that's free.

Today's B O' B comes with a splash of pride. This doll artist just happens to be my cousin! We share a wonderfully creative grandmother who taught us to sew and always encouraged all our projects.

I have a few favorite inspirational quotes displayed in various ways close to my desk. Last week this quote dislodged itself from the bulletin board, and wafted down to my desk, landing face up, right where I was working.
Everything happens for a reason.

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'
Another cool thing I've just implimented, Blogrolling. It will keep my list of Blogs I like to read fresh, and get this it puts the most reciently updated Blog at the top of my little list over there! It also tells me on my personal Blogrolling page who and how many have linked to me and my links.
Um, hey G-Man, for all your supposed media empire I was the first to Blogroll you.

Here's some fun caricatures, and if you go to her Home page, you'll see some of the wonderful movie star dolls she has customized. I especially liked her rendition of Whoopi, very realistic!

Whew, found that nasty missing piece of code!
Warning, this post contains geek speek
In case you didn't notice, the last three days my blog has had this terrible empty space at the top right, due to one tiny "tr" missing.
Helpful geek hint: I remembered what my friend Bobbie taught me about comparing documents in Word, and I used that on my current code vs. the origional code. It was still a needle in a haystack, but it definately made it tons easier!
Funny side note: I haven't learned yet what the tr even means!
