I was thinking it would be nice to have a logo for Stitching Exchanging that we could put on our own blogs with a link to this site. What do you think about this one?

Like so many I love cross stitch & enjoy exchanging items I have stitched. How much more fun is it to get wonderful stitchy surprises in the mail than bills? Since many of the groups and blogs I have encountered are full, I decided to start one!! So I hope we end up with some great new friends here and can have lots of fun! If you are interested, contact Yoyo at yoyo_9203 at yahoo dot com (temporarily until Marie is available).

As you already know Edit, I really like this one :-)
I think it is very nice.....I will need vast and detailed instructions to actually put it on my blog....I am VERY non tech!
Willing but not apt...
Great Idea!!!
Sharon,
This is the way to include it on your blog:
1 Save the image to your computer.
2 Log in to your Blogger account and go to "Dashboard".
3 Choose "Layout"
4 In "Page elements" click "Add a Gadget" and add a "Picture"
5 Now appears a window called "Configure Image"
6 Choose "Image from your computer" and browse the location of the logo and select it.
7 To the line "Link" type the address of Stitching Exchanging (http://stitchingexchanging.blogspot.com/)
8 Click "Save"
9 Picture with the link is added.
Now it appears in the top of the list below "Add Gadget". You can move it down if you want (just grab and move it down).
Click "Save" and it is finished.
Good luck. Edit
I like it very much - we'll puzzle it out together, Sharon! Marie, am I part of the Just Nan exchange, just being anal.....!
Hi Gillie
Yes you are - I added you to the list, but didn't think to actually tell you lol. Can you email me with your snail addy please :-)
I like the script...but I would like to see it in a "stitched" version more. Any possibility of that?
Sorry, forgot to say, if you want to put the image on your blog and you do not have a Blogger blog E-mail me and I'll give you the procedure for your blog type.
Great Idea!!!
Yoyo, I don't know how to do it in a stitched version :( Any idea?
Edit, This looks like a familiar font to me, do you know what font you used to make the design? I might be able to do it in my software and actually stitch it will quick, that's one way. Or, I think I have a couple of "stitch fonts" that might look good too, I can play with that a little and see if just putting it in a stitch-like-font might give it the 'flavor' of stitching. Tell me your font name if you have it and I'll see what else I might have.
Yoyo, I used the font "Lindas Lament" on the page http://cooltext.com/. There are a lot of other fonts there, but I couldn't find any stitched ones.
Edit, I couldn't find a font I liked either. Please take a look at this and tell me what you think. If you think it's trash that's fine, I just played around with your image and came up with this. It's a thought.
Yoyo, it looks good, maybe a bit difficult to read (?), but it is fine for me :)
Edit, you're right. I changed the lines to be thinner and not so many. Have a look now and see if this is better.
