I have been pondering/talking about/banging my head against the wall and shaking in fear about what to do concerning the whole “Blogroll” thing.
For those who have been here since the days of Blogger, you may remember that I once had a blogroll and that it caused much drama. You may also remember that when I tried to tinker with it using my STELLAR techno-skills, I completely destroyed my blog template and also caused Dick Cheney’s toilet to start randomly flushing.
I never want to go through that again. (The Secret Service are immune to my dorkish pleas of techno-ignorance. Just in case you were wondering.)
I’ve been wanting to give linky love to my readers for a long time because my readers are the awesomest and because HELLO? Who doesn’t love linky lovin’??
However, I have been scratching my head about how I want to go about it, exactly.
I think I finally know what I want to do.
Yes, I know it’s taken me over a year.
I’m special like that.
SO….
If you want some linky loveage from Looney Tunes, could you please leave a comment with your URL?
Even if I already know you and/or stalk you back or send you love letters saying that I want to make out with your blog, please leave me your URL. It would be ever so handy for my addled brain to have a list all in one place so that nobody gets left off.
(Have I told you about the nightmares I have had regarding this? Leaving someone off the linky love page on accident? It is not pretty my friends. I’ll just say that it involved a couple of rolls of duct tape and Yule Brenner and leave it at that.)
It will take me a bit to implement it, so I may end up leaving it in my sidebar somewhere, but I am determined to get this sucker up by the end of February.
I’m slow.
Don’t mock me.
Mockers go to hell.
(So, I guess I’ll see you there, then??)
Hee.

Hey! Thanks for the nickname. You thought I forgot, didn’t you?
I’m all in a tizzy about the blogroll stuff myself…I can’t keep things straight. Do you know for the longest time if people clicked on what was supposed to be YOUR link on my blogroll it sent them right back to my homepage? Derrrrrrr. It would have been genius if it hadn’t been a mistake.
Your caption is hysterical!

All you need for a rotating image or text blogroll is a line of php code. Just sayin… If I had a long blogroll, I would put it on a separate page, but the rotating thingie works well on the sidebar.

Can I play?
I was wondering about the etiquette on this one (still new to this world). Should I ask permission before linking to people I lurk at? Or do people generally not mind all the stalking?
(Dragging foot in the sand) Would you mind, Loralee, if I link to you on my blog?
Thanks man!
