Yep, the image came from 123. It cost me one credit, which I think works out at about 86 cents. I think it's a photo of a cave painting. LOL! Yep, the image came from 123.

This is going to be very useful for me too. I'm always finding good sites and them forgetting where they are. It'll be very handy to link to them all on here. Thanks, Mike.

At least now I'll be able to go to My Goat and find things! Thanks so much for your comments. (Meanwhile - not relevant to anything - there's an awful lot of bees coming into our house and I'm having to duck and dive a bit.) Hi Mike

I have to laugh because I’m always finding great resources and then I can never find them again. At least now I’ll be able to go to My Goat and find things!

Thanks so much for your comments.

]]> Comment on Step 8 – some more tweaks to the appearance by admin http://www.mygoat.com/step-8-some-more-tweaks-to-the-appearance/comment-page-1/#comment-9 admin Sun, 12 Jul 2009 23:21:29 +0000 http://www.mygoat.com/?p=74#comment-9 We used to have all our sites hosted with Keiron and he really does give a great service. But we grew too big for it (so many sites and so much traffic) we needed our own VPS. We asked several times if he could or would do it, but it's not a service he offers. Reluctantly, we moved on, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him if you don't need a VPS. I like our new hosts too. Maybe we'll post about them soon too because they're pretty good and not expensive. Just a thought, if you've got several sites that need hosting you do have a reseller package don't you? It's the best way for people with lots of sites - no marginal cost for adding another. It's not expensive, we're talking about maybe $30 per month or something.

At the moment, I have a chaotic jumble of overpriced hosting packages which don't work all that well. It really is time I contacted Keiron.

Where did you get the masthead image, which looks like something by a well-known artist? The strapline is an image in an unusual font. How did you create that?
