Comment/entry number 4 - Emily from Sparkle and Shade! I will contact you for your address today. I have been following your blog for quite some time and was very excited that you were reading and that you'd entered. Hope you enjoy your goodies, you deserve them. Anyone that doesn't follow her, you should. Not only does she do lovely reviews and make-up looks, but more recently is jogging and eating right and it's very inspirational reading. I like.
Second of all, Some of the feedback turned out to be stuff I was considering but forgot to ask directly such as would you prefer dark text on a light background to the white on dark blue. It turns out most people would. And twitter - people are either ambivalent or very enthusiastic so we'll see. I do read a few peoples twitter feeds anyway, but I'm still not sure how it all works. Since blogging I am realising the internet is better when you're interacting. It may be another week before I get the time to set that up, but I plan to.
I also plan on having tags listed at the side for browsing and so on - now I have more posts this makes sense. Bekka's feedback that the centralised text is a bit weird - I had wondered why I was doing that (something to do with the photos being central?!)
It seems overall simplicity is best and I am worrying about nothing.
One more thing - thanks for all the comments calling me creative. Since I finished my art degree I have picked up a paintbrush maybe three times in total; make-up has been what I felt like doing for the past two years. It's pleasing me that it's pleasing people :)
