5 Star Blog ReDesign – Comments Now Open
The blog redesign and upgrade to WordPress 2.3 are complete, aside from a couple little CSS tweaks here and there. COMMENTS are open again, now that we have all the latest spam plugins.
I’d like to thank Teli Adlam author of OptiNiche for all her help with the re-design and her patience in putting up with me and all the Vbulletin forum gremlins during the process. If you ever need a great designer you can find out about her services at Creative Blog Consulting and TeliDesign.
Charles Sels from Brussels designed the new 5 Star logo. He was the winner of my SitePoint logo design contest. If you need a graphic artist, contact me for his email or you can reach him through SitePoint.

Absolutely LOVING the new design Linda, it’s fantastic! And don’t get me started on how much I am appreciating the comments. Sorry but signing up for another forum was not on my immediate list of things to do!
I noticed the design change over the weekend and have to say, It was the first time I actually explored your directory and links in your right sidebars.
One request though, PLEASE install the “subscribe to comments by email” plugin.
Keep up the great work.

Thanks Dave. Means alot coming from you since I was so thrilled with the new design at Redfly Marketing.
Good catch on the “subscribe to comments by email” plugin.
I’ll have Teli add it.

Linda, you have me blushing.
Thank you for the wonderful words and I have a smile from ear to ear seeing the comments form already being put to good use.
I have to admit, it’s very refreshing to have the comments form open. Sometimes I came across an entry that just fired me up and I wanted to drop my two cents in, but since the comments weren’t open I had to bite my tongue…not so any more.

P.S. I’ll be dropping you an e-mail in a few.

Thanks Sam. I’m pretty excited to have comments back too.
Nice to see that people are jumping in and it’s no longer
just a one-way conversation.
I was getting tired of doing all the talking around here!
