For quite some time I’ve considered privatizing my blog, but doing so would place a sweeping ban on all of my guests and force everyone to gain access with a username and password. This is not what I want for my blog, not at all. Which explains why I haven’t done it! What I want is to be able to kick up my feet (they aren’t stinky, I promise) and get comfortable. Right now there are times when I feel comfortable, there are times when I don’t.
I found something that is going to change things for my blog, and I hope it doesn’t offend anyone in the process.
Here’s how it works. Guests do not need to register to visit my blog, every single guest will be able to view my works in progress, captionable critters, and other art related tidbits.
That’s going to be it for entry level/public reading from here on out.
Registered guests will have access to the more personal side of me. I am not going to screen anyone, everyone can register. The point? If I’m going to get comfortable, I want to be among familiar faces, names, friends. I would like to think you guys know who you are, but if you’re wondering – please don’t think twice about dropping me an e-mail about it.
I have not been comfortable for some time now; I very much dislike banning IP’s, and frankly I’m not the stataholic I once was.
I think I found the answer I’ve been looking for, now it’s up to you to either register… or not.

That seems like a great solution to your dilemma, Leanne. Good work. You’ve got such a great blog from the technical side–and artistic also, of course.
It’s all so new to me…how do I subscribe?
To register for full access, click here. Fill out your “signature”, how you would fill in your name when you leave a comment. Your e-mail must be valid. You will be sent a random password. You can log in with your username and password, and in your options you can modify your password to something you’ll remember easily.
Don’t worry about being “in my admin panel”, there is nothing there that can be altered in any way that would screw up my blog. When in doubt, log out. Just drop me an e-mail if you have questions!
:biggrin:
I registered a few weeks ago and have forgotten since then that I am a “registered user” :giggle: I think it’s a good idea. I think it will discourage inappropriate comments, spam and the critisism that is meant to hurt, not be constructive.
Good for you. I’m all for it chica. I love your blog!!!
I’m in 🙂
I hope that I am registered for your blog.

I just registered again…just to be safe.:wink:

I can’t log in! I tried, but the password is incorrect – even the new one I was sent when I clicked on ‘lost your password?’
