Designs-a-go-go

Filed under: Blog design

I have gotten a few comments here and at Unexpected Miracles for requests for designs.  I apologized if I haven’t gotten back to you.  I am extremely flaky right now and can’t be relied upon for squat.  That being said I do want to look at working on some designs for you guys.  I can’t remember who wants designs.  So here is a lesson in following directions.  To qualify for a design you must complete the following tasks.  (did I mention designs are free?)

1. you must be an adoptive parent or Pre-adoptive parent.  Just because they need some pampering right now.  I’ll get to the rest of you in a while. 

2. email me with your name or "name" and your blog url.  You have to have an existing blog.  The trick is my email address isn’t listed on this site.  (I don’t think, remember I am dumb)  So you have to find it.  Hint: a link to the location is in this post.

3. leave me a comment to make me feel better about myself.

4. your blog must be hosted by blogger or blogsome.  My mental capacity for designing for other hosts is limited.  I am too tired to learn something new right now. 

I want your url because I do go and read everyone’s blogs.  That blog roll over there ———————>  I have read the all the content on each.  Yes, I need more to do with my life, but it is just what makes me a decent designer.  So if you follow all of these simple instructions I will consider you for the next Elle Makeover.  (no you will not be featured in a high fashion magazine with a similiar name, but I will make your blog pretty)

  1. Well I am one who has said how much I love your designs, but am not yet an adoptive or Pre-adoptive parent yet. So I will just go to the wait list! I’m excited for the folks who get new blog makeovers though!!

  4. Hi - your blog templates are awesome and so unique! I would be honored to be considered for a blog makeover! Also, would you be interested in helping out the May 2006 DTC group with their logo? Just a thought… :)

  5. I am one who had groveled in the past for an Elle blog design before. However, I’m going to have to keep deciphering that post to figure out your e-mail address! I just think your designs are “mah-vel-ous dahling!”

  6. My sister is in Russia right now adopting 2 brothers, and I have been maintaining a pretty medicore blog for her. Yours are just amazing - love Margaret’s and Julie’s. Keep up the great designs - it truly helps.

  7. Hello Elle! Beautiful designs, you’ve done wonders with blog. I too would be honored for a make-over for our newly adopted (may 2006) son’s blog. I sent you an email from the link but in case you didn’t get it…
