Just Some Updates

I’ve been working on the site some, but nothing too spectacular yet. I found an old layout I drew up, so I’m going to work on getting it coded and uses it as the basis for my first Wordpress theme. I hope to release it very soon. I’m a lso looking for some suggestions of things you would like to see on the site, so please comment with a few.

1. First update is an addition to the brushes family, a 2nd set of grunge brushes.

2. I’ve put up some buttons for you to link to me with. It seemed kind of self defeating to ask people to link back to me for using my stuff, but not offer a button to link me with. I followed a tutorial (poorly) to make these buttons and I like the way they turned out.

3. I also added a Facebook for Lala Land, which I’ll be working on. The button to view it is on the sidebar and I got it from here (more than just facebook, they have many web 2.0 icons). There’s currently nothing on the page, but you can view it here and go ahead and become a fan. I plan to put all my freebies up there, too. Maybe even a few extras.

4. I put up some stock images from my own photography. These images are only to be used with credit back. Don’t even look at them if you’re not willing to credit me if they’re used. This includes any sort of textures, brushes, or any other way the image may no longer be identifiable.

5. I added some new fonts to the fonts page. I found these online and I loved them, so I thought I’d share them with everyone.

6. I also added a ‘Mentoring’ section that I plan to turn into a service matching advanced users to beginners to help them grow. Before I spend the time getting into all of this, I’d like to know if this is something that would interest anyone. Would you like to help others achieve their potential? Would you like help from someone who already does what you want to do? Let me know if you think this is something I should move forward on. This is taking the place of the old “sponsoring” section Lala Land used to have. I took that word down for fear that Google would misinenterpret it send me to my doom.

Lastly, I’m trying to get a better reach and more readers, so I’m ready to link exchange with those who might be interested. I have standards (it can’t be a link farm) but I’m not going to turn down any sites just because I don’t think they’re “elite”. Let me know if you’re interested. Also looking for suggestions on how to make my site more popular.
