YummyLolly.com is now BloggerCandy.com

Yes, yes, yes, my URL has changed from yummylolly.com to bloggercandy.com (details coming soon, GROAN), but if you would like to grab a new button for your sidebar - or UPDATE your current button, please grab one of these.  It would make me super happy:

<center><a href="http://www.bloggercandy.com"><img border="0" src="http://www.suckmylolly.com/yummylolly/yummylolly1.png" /></a></center>

<center><a href="http://www.bloggercandy.com"><img border="0" src="http://www.suckmylolly.com/yummylolly/yummylolly3.png" /></a></center>

<center><a href="http://www.bloggercandy.com"><img border="0" src="http://www.suckmylolly.com/yummylolly/yummylolly2.png" /></a></center>

<center><a href="http://www.bloggercandy.com"><img border="0" src="http://www.suckmylolly.com/yummylolly/yummylolly4.png" /></a></center>

Not sure how to add this code to your sidebar?

1. Click on the DESIGN tab in Blogger and then PAGE ELEMENTS
   
2. Click "Add a Gadget" in your sidebar/footer
   
3. Select the HTML/Javascript Widget (see below)
   
   
   
   
4. Paste the html code in this window - no need to give it a title unless you want to!
   See below for how mine looks:
   
   
5. Click save!  Done!
   You can now drag and drop this widget wherever you want it to be, as per normal!
   
   
   
   

(please please please with sugar on top)

It's easily done!  Go to your DESIGN &  EDIT HTML window in Blogger:

Scroll right down to the bottom of this box of code and you will see that yummylolly.com is referenced twice.  Please change this link to be bloggercandy.com instead of yummylolly.com

It should now look like this:

I will love you forever and ever if you do this.  I know it sucks and it's not ideal.

It's just all about sharing! Dead links are not fun.

A few random things.... (and a request for my readers - yes, YOU!)

Hi everyone, hope you all had a great Holiday Season and New Year!

I have a few random things to mention in this post, so please bear with me. Time permitting, normal programming will resume shortly.

I would love to write a few simple tutorials, so if you're a reader and have a good idea, please leave a comment and let me know what you'd like to know and I'll try and help. Of course I might not be able to explain everything but hit me up with a comment and I will get started.

• I have now opened a twitter account just for this site. HOORAY!
  I realise I had previously linked to my personal one before now but most of the time I complain about the public transport system in Melbourne (ie: nothing to do with Blogging). Therefore, I have made a dedicated Twitter account which I will post random Blogger points/info etc. Follow me: Yummy_Lolly
  
  
• I had a request from Dana to make the "She May Adore Me" template with a post divider image - ie: between the posts. Yes, that is easily done, so what I have done is removed the image from under the sidebar headers and put it under each blog post.
  I guess I'm not 100% sure if that's what Dana meant but you can see what it would look like below:

• I also had a request to have the lovely font "Mountains of Christmas" used for block quotes from 'Owner of the Blog' (great name).
  
  So yes, as I am a nice girl, I have done that too:

Momentary Image Lapse!

Apologies if anyone's images in their template were broken (aka: Photobucket bandwidth exceeded gif from hell). Unfortunately this is something I pay for myself and I had accidentally let my pro account lapse.

It should be fixed soon as I have just upgraded my account.

Almost 1000 Google Followers! Thank you, thank you!

Hello!

I just want to write a post saying that I've almost got 1000 Blogger Followers and that BLOWS MY MIND COMPLETELY!

Thank you to everyone who comes to my site (and stays for more than a second :D), thanks to those who download and enjoy my templates, thanks to those who take the time to email me and say thanks - that makes my day! I don't always have time to write back but I appreciate it so much! Thank you to you all. I enjoy doing this so much and I'm always happy that others can get enjoyment out of it too.

I have had a busy busy year! (I bet you have too) and I haven't been able to post many things of late due to everyone in my family having the flu (except me! ha!) and being in the process of transferring everything to my new harddrive. So things have been painfully slow.

This may be my last post for the year (boo!) but I will be back as soon as possible with more designs (yay!).

I hope you are well and if Christmas is your thing, I hope you have a very very merry one. If it isn't your thing, then I hope you still have a good time over the holiday season.

All my love,
Sharnee

Happy New Year! (yes, it's a little late!)

This isn't a personal blog, so excuse the personal nature of this post.... but I know some of my readers wanted an update....

YES, I had two babies (oh my goodness, almost a month ago now, where has time gone?) - George and Julius - and we are all doing well - except of course I will probably never ever sleep again! Seriously!

I have not forgotten about suckmylolly.com - but it hasn't been possible for me to make any templates lately due to the two little men I have to feed! Wow, everyone says that having a baby is hard work, but you really have no idea how hard it's going to be until they actually arrive! And to have two at once! Wowsers.

I will be making some more templates in the coming weeks - apologies for taking a bit of time out. If you want get get notified when I make more templates, then you should join the email subscription or subscribe to this site >> here.

Just a quick note....

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays everyone!

suckmylolly.com has almost had a million page visits and for that I say THANK YOU (I'll let you know when it happens because it'll be a pretty big milestone)!

Hope you all have a happy holiday season.

Gah!

Sincerest apologies to everyone out there for not posting a design in the last week or so!

I'm in the last phase of what is known as hell aka: "moving overseas for the 4th time in 10 years".  Luckily for me I'm moving back home (and home is where the heart is after all) so things are CRAZY and exciting, all at once!

If I get time, I'd like to pop another design up before I disappear for a few weeks - please please don't forget about ol' suckmylolly.com - just know that I haven't abandoned ship.  What a perfect chance it would be to join the email newsletter to know when more designs are made.

(the links on the right there)

I've received an exceptional amount of love letters this week all telling me how much you like my designs and appreciate the fact that they're free - please know that I love and adore knowing that people get some joy out of something I've created.  Yes, even if it is a blog template - I love the fact you've gone to the trouble to tell me how much you like it!

It just makes it all worthwhile.

Thanks again, peoples!
