Have you ever thought about how great it might be to have a forum tied into your website or blog?

If you’ve thought about it, but perhaps haven’t taken the steps to create a forum because some forums require installation and a steep learning curve, you might want to check out the GoBoardz – Free Forums where you can create your own free forum in minutes.

Just sign up and create your forum in a few simple steps. It’s that easy.

At GoBoardz you can use images from your Photobucket account, and embed Revver videos. There’s also support for RSS feeds. Plus, a new version of the GoBoardz system will be coming out soon. Version II will have even more features and web 2.0 type of updates.

If you do create a forum don’t forget to promote it on your website!






New Look coming soon

by

All weekend I had planned to make some time to work on updating this site with a new look and feel. Obviously it being a busy Easter weekend I didn’t get a chance to work on the site as I’d planned.

The site will continue to have a similar look and feel as the current design, but I hope that it will appear to be more organized, less cluttered and I think that the theme that I picked out has a slightly wider text area so I should be able to post larger images in my articles.

I hope to work on the new theme over the evening, but if I don’t complete it tonight be assured that the new theme will be up sometime over the next few days.

If you have any suggestions for the new design- things you’d like to see more of or even less of please let me know. Constructive criticism and suggestions are always welcome.

Who got engaged on Valentines?

by

Ok, so tell me … Did anyone get engaged today? It is Valentines after all and I believe that this date, and New Years are the two most popular days for popping the big question.

No, I didn’t get engaged. Uh huh. Nope, back when I got engaged – 13 years ago, it was New Years Eve. I didn’t even get an Engagement Diamond Ring that evening since we were both jewelers at the time. Yes, believe it or not I had a rare disorder known as “Jewelry burnout”. I bet that you don’t even know anyone else who has that disorder do you?

I still don’t have an engagement ring. Maybe it’s time to get one, although I have no idea what would go with my custom made concave diamond and emerald wedding band.

Hmmm let’s see. If I was going to get a Diamond ring I think that I might like one like this Diamond and sapphire engagement ring, but I’d see if I could substitute the sapphires for emeralds so that it would go with my wedding band.

Which engagement ring would you chose if you were looking?
