I just wanted to say thanks for the link to my post over at blogelephant. I’ve been desiging websites and blogs for awhile, but I’m just getting into blogging myself. So, it was a great feeling to see the link here.
I really like your blog’s redesign by the way. Its cleaner, I like the icons, and it kept well to the original brand, which is important in a redesign.

January 6th, 2008 at 10:24 pmMany thanks for bringing our recent tip on the “Idea Addiction” to the surface. One reader on our blog commented that many of us creatives should have a form of Ideaholics Anonymous (or IA?) to help us stay focused and productive…
We’re fans of Freelance Folder: what a great set of resources. We hope that your readers will also make use of the Behance Network (behance.net) as a helpful (and free) tool to disseminate your portfolio of work and get new leads…
Thanks again for the article link!
