Posted: Sun Nov 05, 2006 4:26 am Post subject: Our Very Own Blog Ring
I have created a blog ring just for us.
If you have a blog then you are welcome to join.
If you are not familiar with the blog ring concept this is how it works.
When you join you are given a piece of code to add to your sidebar in your blog which allows other members (and visitors to your blog) to navigate from one blog to the next in the ring.
If you don't want to join the ring, but would still like to share your blog with us then please tell us about it in this forum. _________________ Jacquie

Would someone like to come up with a button for our ring? If we end up with more than one design then members can choose which one they want to use. _________________ Jacquie

Oh wow I am a member of my first ever blog ring!!! How cool is that!
mmmmmm a button??? haven't got a clue but I may have a play in the week if no-one else comes up with anything. - I think we need Linz as she is the lady of the glitzy buttons!!!! _________________ Claire
It's my first blog ring too Auntie Noo.... I appear after Jacquie, but I think that you are the first in the ring. Even cooler! _________________ Melody's blog

You should see a block of texty programmy type stuff in a medium sized box to the left of the screen when you registered your details on the blog ring page. Copy those commands by highligting and copying them, and then pasting them into the sidebar of your blog.
You'll need to go the template part of your blog (again it's the programmy looking bits in the template) and paste them into a piece where it goes on about sidebar content.
That's what I did and it seemed to work okay. And I'm not the sharpest knife in the box as far as t'interent is concerned... _________________ Melody's blog

I've joined too
Am I supposed to put something on my blog
Yeah, there should have been a chunk of code that came up when you applied, but I have emailed it to you again.
It has to be your own piece of code (ie not copied from someone else in the ring) as it contains your position in the ring which is needed for the navigation. _________________ Jacquie
