Blog Jacket

I have been doing free templates now for people for over a year, only recently have I gotten so busy that I realized that I want to turn this into a small side business.

The new business will include Moveable Type set up and blog template design - and web hosting. My partner, Kris Bernard and I are just starting out, but we are very excited.

The site isn't completed yet, but I do have a splash page so you will get the idea.

hey. this is interesting, because i was LITERALLY just on kris' site to see if she had anything new since i talked to her last week. :)

but, if i just want the hosting, and not the design, how do i do that with this new business?

Go, big guy! Uhhh, does this mean I have to pay for mine? Not that I won't, but...can I get a $10 trade-in for my novel?

Anne Fitten! Of course yours is still free, however, I want the ones that I do to be really, really good and for some reason for yours I have found myself oscillating between two types of designs. I wanted to have you looking like Eve taking a bit out of a piece of forbidden fruit, complete with snake and fig leaves... but I just couldn't pull it off without it looking tacky, but I am still trying, I even thought about doing something clever like the intro to Desperate HouseWives, but my time lately has been constricted - mostly because I won't shut my mouth on these blogs.

eddie. are you actually working today? because you're not commenting a lot, and i have questions that need to be answered.

i officially have permission to purchase justsayjes.com, and i am so excited to do that, but now i need help from Kris.

and since you guys are starting a business, i don't know whether i should get it now, or wait, or what.

please inform me. :)

Eddo - I am SO in for a new blog look! Mine bores me every day, and I am just too lazy to switch it up because all I know how to do is either switch the blogger template and/or change the colours around.

Hope you will be ready to take on Wordpress. I am really on the look out for a designer who gets me---- do you think you might get me? I have so many designs and skins at my place and yet I don't have the "real me one yet." Good luck with the business I had looked at the templets you had for blogger and you will do well I think.
