Stylish Blogger Award

Written by Elena @The Art of Making a Baby. Posted in Daily, FUN Times

Also today I got my first Blog Award. Yay for it! I received it from the beautiful Ambrosia Clark . Thank you, darling!

So here is how this works:
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Award 15 recently discovered bloggers.
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award!

7 Things about me ( I almost  feel like it’s a Miley song)

1. I play drums and I’m kind of good at it  ( ha! That’s a recent discovery and I am still not very good from the skills standpoint, a beginner, but I am working on it)

2. I don’t eat meat. At all. Evah!

3.  I hate doing dishes and scrubing bathrooms. I’d rather fold and iron clothes for hours than do the “dirty work”

4.I’m super good with computer and any kind of technology. I can figure out anything electronic

5. I have a nude and topless shots ( modelling shots,  NOT like the trashy glamour stuff that some people shoot. YUCK!)

 6. I have about 50 bikinis.

7. I am a huge overachiever and perfectionist, but not OCD or anything like that. Things just come easy for me.

I am passing this award to:
(see, this is tough, because most people I read have already gotten the award)

1. 7x7xMommy
2. Angel Perry
3. The Bobby Pin
4. Miss Ashley in Mississippi
5. Love (cubed)
6. The Tales of Two Taylors
7. {Shutter} Mama

I am going to stop  at 7 awards for three reasons: 1. I really don’t read THAT many blogs, 2. Half the blogs I read got the award this week and the other half a while ago, 3. And I mean 15???? Really? Is it a bit crazy and makes it less special?

So here we go! 7 beautiful, fun-to-read ladies!

Gravatar – Making Blogging Personal

Written by Elena @The Art of Making a Baby. Posted in Daily, photo

You know that greyed out or default avatar picture that shows up every time you post a comment? ( I wish the defaults were as cool as these little buggers down here, but you get the idea)

Well, you can customize it to have YOUR picture show up on all the blogs you comment on ( including yours if needed)

Gravatar is this cool service that allows you to associate an image/button/avatar with your email address.
Here’s how it works.
1. Create an account at Gravatar.com
2. Add an email address that you usually use when commenting on other blogs
3. Add a picture and associate it with that email address.

Voila!

From now on, every time you comment anywhere with avatar capabilities ( mostly blogs), as long as you type in that email address, the photo you associated with it will show up.

It’s pretty cool actually. I can’t stand anonymous avatars. This makes it so much better.

So, my blogless readers ( you know who you are), take the time to do it, so that I could see your pretty faces displayed above your comment.

And don’t forget to vote by simply hitting this buttom (you can vote daily)
