First, to all of you using Internet Explorer, you must know there’s better internet browsers out there! I strongly support and recommend you to use Firefox, for all those that don’t know it, aiming for a better looking world wide web!! And also want to invite you to be part of the Download Day 2008!! (click on the cutie fox to go and see what it is!!!).

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!!

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!

Are you using one of my free templates? If so let me know!!! I am starting a list with all the blogs using Birdie Says templates in order to have soon a little contest in which one lucky template user will win a custom birdie header for their blog!!

Interested in winning a new custom header? Leave me a comment with the link to your blog in this page: Themes in Action and add me to your RSS reads to be updated on the Contest!! Now you can also suscribe to the blog updates VIA email!!! (check on my sidebar!!)

Yessss, finally a few seconds to dedicate to the blog and to my own things!! Today I finally picked a font at MyFonts.com to go with my Birdie Says and with my name. This is the first step on the whole redesigning I am planning for the site, the portfolio, the shop, and even the Birdie templates and merchandising!!

So well, after picking the font, I started updating a couple of my mugs, yes, they are my soft spot. And I really really want to know what you guys think of them!!! One of them was the Hanging there one, so I took the time and added a postcard and a mouse pad to go with it

Of course, I also edited many other mugs, so now at the cafepress collection page you can find some of these down here (please tell me what you think of the look of the set!!!):
