We’ve Had A Makeover At POD For You!

Posted by: | Comments (3)

I’m sure you’ve probably noticed by now…. we’ve had a makeover! With school starting back, I’ve neglected the main page at POD For You terribly. I’ve finally gotten my second wind and I’ve planned a lot of fun new things for the site! I have several articles coming out and have added some new categories:

Behind The Scenes- We’ve been talking to the POD companies and some of them have agreed to assign guest authors who will be posting some peeks behind the scenes. Stay tuned!

The Bookshelf- I’ll be featuring books that I think will be beneficial to your life in some way…. self-help books, helping you become a better business person, personal finances….. whatever I think is appropriate for the week.

Friday Frolics- Fridays are the beginning of the weekend and a time for fun. I’ll be posting a little humor and frolic on these days. If you have an old picture of yourself that you don’t mind sharing, I’d like to start something called Guess The POD’er! Send it to me with permission to post it….. I’ll feature one in the Friday Frolics and give everyone a week to guess who it is before posting the answer.

The Saturday Social- Are you one of my Twitter tweeps? I’m going to let everyone Meet My Tweeps.” We’ve had our first victim…. er…. uhm volunteer! You can meet Brenda Boo!

Weekly Round Up- On Sundays, I’ll give a round up of what happened on the site and in POD news for the week.

The main page is totally different as well! The latest feature articles can be seen in a cool slide show. The latest news from all the POD companies will be shown in the tabbed feature underneath. Keep an eye on it because we’ll be adding the Behind The Scenes tab soon! We’ve added a mini-font shop that you can browse through. Our latest Resources posts are underneath…. you can click the numbers to switch the article to find great tools to help build your shops and websites. And of course, I can’t forget to let you Meet My Tweeps.”

The sidebar is organized a bit better with a quick Subscribe button and handy search bar near the top. Tabs in the sidebar give you quick access to the latest posts, categories, comments, and archives. Scroll down to participate in the latest poll.

So what do you think? Love it? Hate it? Sound off and let me know.

The one, the only, Brenda Boo!

2. Do you have a website?

I do www.thebootique.com
It’s amazing, spectacular a true site to behold.

3. Why would my minions be interested in following you?

I am witty, take good care of my toenails, smell nice and am tidy. Also, I make graphics of all kinds and have severe mood swings so you are always in for a new adventure in chaos.

4. Out of all of the tweets you’ve made, which one makes you smile the most?

Yawn….. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…. Toot …. he h e….groan….Zzzzz

5. Which famous person, living or dead, would you like to be tweeps with?

John Waters. That is all.

6. Name the most embarrassing thing about your home office or desk right now.

It is laying on my belly as I lay on the couch typing this. Is that embarrassing?

7. Shhhhh! Be quiet and listen. What do you hear right now?

Some crappy techno (all of it is crappy IMHO) and animal planet.

8. How many cups of coffee did you have this morning?

I forgot after 3. The day is a blur.

9. If you were an animal, what kind would you be and why?

Panda bear. Why you ask. It´s a frickin panda bear , just look at it. Who hates a panda?

10. Anything else you have to say for yourself? We know you must be guilty of something or you wouldn’t be following Kayecee around.

I am guilty of boredom and in that guilt I stalk Kayecee. It is my burden to bear.

Follow Kayecee!

POD For You Welcomes New Mods!

Posted by: | Comments (5)

We are pleased to announce that POD For You is welcoming new moderators to our forums!

As most of you know, I am a teacher. Unfortunately for me, that means that I will be returning to school next week. Our forum is growing and members are participating more and more each day. (I heart you all BTW.) This seemed to be the right time to introduce our first round of moderators to help me out when I’m not available.

So I’d like to introduce you to our new mods: Brian, Carl, DustyLeaf, and RobertPlantFan! I hope to be adding even more mods in the future as we grow together! But for now, y’all play kissy-face!

*throws mods to the wolves*
