    Love the new look! I’m so excited about the new features, I already have a few broadcasts from my fellow bloggers. I can’t tell you how excited I am about this feature as I am going live with my coaching website soon! Plus the look is much more clean looking, I really love the things you have done!

    Also wanted to let you know about another campaign. I made a post in my blog about it. Here’s the jist…for everyone who visits the site IChooseTrust.com and leaves a message (it’s free) about hope and trust, they will plant a tree in that person’s name. It’s a great service and I’d love for you to participate. You don’t have to broadcast but I value the wonderful campaigns and community involvement you promote so I thought this would be great for you to do personally.

    Okay enough from me. I love the site and am so grateful to be a BlogCatalog member! Keep up the great work!!!

    The site looks great now, but I noticed that some of my thumbshots are really out of date, still showing themes that i scrapped months ago.
