Are you participating in Bloggiesta?
I would love to participate in Bloggiesta (both because there are about a million things I've been planning to fix on my blog, and also because I just want an excuse to post that adorable button), but with my big move coming up, I really don't have the time.
BUT, hopefully you are participating! And if you are, I'd love to help. I've written a bunch of tutorials that you might find useful and I've listed most of them here for you.

Great post, Smallsie!
ReplyDeleteYou give superb technical help, you know?
I'm doing Bloggiesta Lite this year 'cause I'm just slammed with work and books to read and stuff, so I'll probably just take part from friday to saturday and just get some stuff done :D
Thank you! Good luck with your Bloggiesta goals :D
DeleteAnother fabulous post from you :) I always love your tutorials (I've linked them a few times, as they are some of the best bookish tutorials I've found) and I especially like your Maximizing Links tutorials! I found them really helpful.

Thank you :) And thank you soooo much for linking my tutorials! I really appreciate that. *hugs*
DeleteThanks for the list! I'll be putting this in my Clock Rewinders post on Sunday. :)
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you so much!
DeleteI've learned so much from your tutorials, Smalls! They're informative and easy to understand. I've been living under a rock and didn't know about bloggiesta at all. I'll definitely check it out for next year.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to hear that! Bloggiesta seems like such a great event, but I still have yet to participate in it. Maybe next year!
DeleteI am definitely bookmarking this one!!! Thanks you! xoxo
