Wordley, Splat...time to reel it in a wee bit.  (In general, I really don't mind freewheeling randomness, but get a little distrustful when it starts to take up largish amounts of screen real estate)

No problem.<BR>

Hey, anyway, you can see a sneak preview of the new digest/frontpage look (well, the plan is for there to no longer need to be a seperate frontpage) at <a href="http://www.loveblender.com/2002may/newlook/">http://www.loveblender.com/2002may/newlook/</a><BR>
i haven't made all the links active, but it's pretty close to what the site may be going with.<BR>
<BR>
Mad props (or other more ethnically appropriate accolades) to Lupschada, you can see her orignal design idea at <a href="http://www.loveblender.com/2002may/newlook/luplook.jpg">http://www.loveblender.com/2002may/newlook/luplook.jpg</a> , and stop by her site, <a href="http://www.lupschada.com">http://www.lupschada.com</a> <BR>
<BR>
Bring back feedback here...like, should "blend-o-matic" get a permanent place under "Features", or should it be hidden away under the past digest dropdown, or what? Any other links missing, or not needed

I love the new layout.  I believe that you used one of my favorite fonts--Tempus Sans (or something like that).  I know that I've spent wasy too much time writing at the computer when I can recognize fonts like that.  Hehe.  Personally, I've always enjoyed the Blend-O-Matic a lot--so I'd keep it as a feature.  <BR>
<BR>
Well there's my two cents.  *smile*<BR>
<BR>
Love and wistful rain, Ali

Ali~ "Till it Postively Hurts" was awesome. I loved it. You go gurl lol, anyway, thanks for your comments.<BR>
<BR>
Bridget O~Welcome to the Blender, I hope to see many more from you in the future. I'm loving your stuff so far.<BR>
<BR>
Me aka Nikki~I have always loved your work, I think I could connect with a lot of what you write. I'm glad you liked "upstream", too bad you can relate though.<BR>
<BR>
Kirk~Love the new layout, hey do you think you can create some sort of an icon to answer the survey questions? Heh I think it's happened to almost all of us once when we click on "Add Message" instead of clicking on "Answer Latest Survey Question". Anyway just a thought. Everything else is great.<BR>
<BR>
Take care and all that Begun-This-Clone-War-Has stuff.<BR>
