Hey Now!!!!

[misstia]

Our new layout is active!!! I'm gonna be adding posts to the featured post widget. I believe a post for our rules, one for the long term event calendar, another for this week's event calendar, one to feature our contest winner of the month and then ???? i dunno....ideas? suggestions? should we feature an ad of the week? like the ad that gets the most comments? a weekly open post? we have 5 featured posts we can feature....we don't have use to all five, but why not?!

I'll make a proper 'official' announcement sunday, but starting monday, we'll be celebrating our new look with a week long celebration of: the good, the bad, and the how did this get approved ads!! i'll be promoting on the lj front page too....

if you won't be around or want to get a head start, here's how to do a scheduled post....

i sent them, i believe, 14 ads to pick from for our background....i like how things look....please give your feedback on our newly remodeled home!

ETA: I noticed we've also been given a paid account, so hey now there too!! I've sent a question about how to get the featured posts in a particular order (they seem to order themselves). I dunno if I can put them in a specific order or not, I'll find out.

LJ has done a great job with our design, giving us a paid account, and providing us with the ability to promote our community. Many thanks to them!!

I like the new look :D

You said "like the ad that gets the most comments?" but does the "Popular Entries" list top left cover that already? if not, a weekly feature could be fun - maybe "Mod's Choice" ;D

i plop in the links for popular entries.....(i just sent a question on how to get them in a certain order---if that is possible, like i'd like community rules to be first, then our main calendar, then week's calendar, then contest winner, then ???).....

i dunno if i should be the lone decider!! ;) i'd rather have it based on community input as i try to do all things here!! ooo maybe we could do featured member? though perhaps some members might not to be in the spotlight....(i'm thinking as i type, probably not a good idea!!)
