Is there a place on this web site that you can go to to update information or find a list of all the people who have ever posted their poetry on this site...I have been looking but am not able to successfully find these features. Any info would be appreciated

Hey gang... <BR>
<BR>
I've been thinking about that idea I had to have a 'standard button bar' for site wide use... sort of a combination of that lame envelope icon I used for a combo "Comments or Material that you want to see in the Blender of Love?" link (a concept which dates back to when everything that appeared on the Blender was mailed to me) and the Blender icon gif.<BR>
<BR>
So this is my best effort so far: which isn't saying much<BR>
<img src="/blimage/bb1.gif"><br> (I think I'm going to cheat and include an image in this comment-- regular users can't do that, but hey, what's a little power if you can't abuse it every once in a while.)<BR>
<BR>
So what do you think? I was also thinking of trying to do an abstracted fountain-tip-pen nub for 'submit work'. I'm open to ideas for icons to use, or for links that *need* to be on all these pages. (I was temped to do a link to 'new submissions', but wasn't sure if it was needed, and it's hard to come up with an icon for...)<BR>

hehe, those are kinda cute Kirk... I like em. How about a little pair of wire rimmed glasses for 'read new subs'?<BR>

I like the toolbar/icon idea.  One addition I'd like to see is a link to a list of all registered contributors -- that way you can look up someone's poems even if they don't have one currently posted that month (or maybe there's already a way to do this and I'm just a nimnul?)<BR>
<BR>
One thing crossed my mind last night: does anyone else think it might be a good idea to specify "it's free!!" after anywhere it says "signup for an account"?  I know WE all know it's free but these days people won't assume that.  I would hate to miss out on good material just because potential contributors think an "account" means "money"...

I really should find more time to rest here at the blender.<BR>
<BR>
I just came by and found I made front page...<BR>
Thanks for the recognition, Kirk!<BR>
<BR>
And a deep bow  to all the regular Blenderites.<BR>

Harem ~ I don't know how you do it... you write more in a day than I do in months!  <BR>

Echolocation ~ WOW!  Top notch!  (That's one of my favorite myths, BTW)<BR>

Peace, Love, etc  - tc

Hiya. Found the Blender just a month ago. What a great site this is. I've enjoyed reading stephen's Admiration Cycle, there are also Ali's works, and Madison's "Ancient Remedies". Kudos to all and the great works!<BR>
