1st & 2nd Header Giweaway - June 7th/14th!

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

Yes!! You have time til June 7th to leave your message in HERE to enter the contest for a free custom header for your blog!!!

And just so you know, after contacting the winner and fixing up her/his blog during that week there will be a second giveaway, on June 14th!!

Not only that, but my next coming contest’s prize will include a FULL free blog design for the lucky winner. So you know, keep updated on the news from this blog, I’ll be announcing that contest after the header’s giveaway ends.

Also, wanted to add a little suggestion for those trying to customize their own blog’s template. I get lots of requests for new templates often, of course, each blog has it’s own thematic and it is ideal to have the template matching that… Of course, even if I try, I do not have enough time, I am really sorry. So what I have been suggesting lately to those bloggers in the process of customization is to pay a visit to Istockphoto.com

At istockphoto you’ll be able to find really cheap and amazing vector illustrations, as well as photos and videos. I have myself a couple of images there available for those interested, that you can check on my portfolio.

Well everyone, that’s all for now. I wish you all good luck and don’t forget to leave a message to win your own custom header!

In more news, about the Blogger errors, check this message by faa from Lips Don’t Lie in my last blog post:

hi,i had this error too while trying to change a new blog skin/template.
I think there’s error with the blogger service/server because i changed my blogskin to one of the Birdie’s recently.
So, just give it a few hours or so, and try it again. It worked for me.
Good Luck and Chao!

So you know, KEEP TRYING! Give it a little while and it may work

Hugs to all!! And hello back Annieeeee!!! Missed you this week!!

Errors uploading Blogger templates

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

Hey guys! It has come to my attention -by the number of notes in the last couple of days- that something has changed I assume in the Blogger template layout, or coding, because several of the templates are showing errors when trying to be uploaded. And not the common issues that always existed, but new errors, like when Blogger directly shows an ERROR PAGE and tells you to let Blogger know about it with a code.

I am in no way a coder, so my knowledge is limited. I honestly try my best to share some Birdie with everyone. However, as soon as I have some free time I’ll try to review the different themes to see if I can update them. As soon as this happens, I’ll let you know!!! But keep an eye on the blog if you tried to update a theme, couldn’t and still want to try if possible!

Hugs to you all and thanks for understanding!

PS. I think at some point I’ll start looking for a partner for the template designs. Someone that knows more about coding so I can focuse better on making better-looking templates, with less errors! So if you know anyone interested to recommend let me know!
