Sisters

My sister is visiting me! We have not seen each other since Katrina.

I have also been busy with some freelance projects, and some changes for The Visual Vamp blog. which is as they say, "under construction".

New and frequent posts coming soon. Hang in here with me.

As part of the changes, I want to ask you guys how you feel about the "Follower" feature. Is it important to you? I appreciate every reader and follower. How would you feel if I did not include the "Follower" feature on the updated Visual Vamp blog?

PS The sisters in the photo are Lady Gaga with her sister Natali

    Keep the "follower" feature! Over 900 is most impressive, indeed!

    It's hard to disagree with the ever tasteful Reggie, but I think the follower feature looks a little "facebookie". I would delete it.

    Looking forward to the new look, I'm not concerned about the follower feature, as long as you leave you and Alberto dancing. You are an inspiration.

    Hello Valorie,
    I don't like the look of the follower gadget either but I think it is important to make it easy for readers to connect if they want....I think it can be hidden on the dashboard page but then it makes it just that bit harder for readers to follow....Compromise... always a bore! xv

    naive or obvious question - Different or the same?

    Change can be so exciting. Have no opinion on the "follower" issue. You can proceed without it and if you need to, always add it back later, can't you?

    I'm a regular reader and read sooo many blogs, but I have no idea what the purpose of the Followers is. You don't need it.

    My sister is following me to Chicago in 2 weeks where I will be working, illustrating a wedding and my daughter is following me there so we will have BIG FUN with each other. I love following you.

    Keep the follower box...I agree it's not the most attractive thing, but I think the FB one is worse! I am betting the updates will make you bothered by it.
