- Won 3rd place at EffinStealers’ SOTM*!

- Updated webmiss awards with a MOTM from TeahouseMB
- Updated website affiliates with Vi!
- Updated gifts from affiliates. Thank you Vi!
- Updated website link exchanges with Lyanne!

- Fixed the plugboard (edit: it seems to cause errors in WP when ever I reactivate it so for now, I’m leaving it off)

My affiliate Liz is holding a Site Of The Month contest for the first time on her website and it would be lovely if she gets many contestants. So if you have a website and would like to have a go, so far there are no other participants so you have all your chances!
Liz has the SOTM link in her latest blog so check out her website at Liz.Embrace-me.org. She has a really cute farmhouse themed layout at the moment. And if you’d like to leave her a kind word or two, her tag board is under the “Farm Land” menu. Thank you!

I have 3 gifts to showcase in this update.
The first one is from Kat, the second is from Liz and the third is by my sister Saffy.

I’ve also been made aware of a commenting problem. I don’t know yet if it was a Wordpress plugin that was out of date and that I have since updated, or if the problem is elsewhere. So if you try commenting here, remember to copy your message before sending, just in case. I wouldn’t want to be the cause of message loss frustration to any more visitors. xD And the Guestbook and Contact Form are there as alternatives if indeed the problem is still there.

Continuing with site related news, I’m going to be link exchanging with Lynne. Lynne’s website is called Silver and Black and lives at Crystallized-Layouts.webs.com.

Things that will be popping up over the next couple of days are… Wait, there must be another word I can use other than “things” and “stuff”. There’s the word “features” but I’m not sure that it’s really the right word..
So “things” to look out for are:

• The Feral Accessory Trunk
• The latest Costume Trunk called Android Dystopia (it’s pretty cool :3)

Oh and on a more personal level, I treated myself to a digital camera!! A photo of it coming up later.

I could be offline for several days because I can’t connect to the net from my laptop anymore. Many many hours have been spent trying to fix it today but we’re just going no where. Right now, out of the three computers we have, only one can connect. My sister has generously let me use the connection to write this and hopefully hop on to read my emails.
I’m not sure how long this situation is going to last. We’ll have another think about it in the morning. Meanwhile, hope you all sleep well and don’t have internet problems!!
