Updates:
- Can now view members testimonials in a little box on the testimonials page.
- **NEW FEATURE**
- I've not sussed the full blown chat room idea yet, but I have managed to create a way for members to chat to me. On the front page there will be a little box on the top left above the main menu. It will say "Fancy a chat?" and then under that it will say if I'm online or not. (please allow for the "Donnas chasing around after a 2 year old" possible delay.
- If I am online, just click it and I should appear. It's only available to registered members (to reduce spam).
- Donations:
- We're over a quarter of the way there!!! A big thank you to all of you who donated since the article (Keeping icklebits FREE ) was published last weekend. (For those of you who didn't see it please click here.) Some were anonymous donations and one was a sponsor.
- The sponsor for this week is LLCrafts:
