Post image for We have a new look!

YES! We are so excited to have a new website!!

Photo by Week 40′s Excited Challenge Winner Lyndsey Fagerlund.

Thanks to you, our website has grown into something we never imagined! Because of our growth, we have moved from Blogspot to WordPress. Little did we know transferring the content would not be so smooth. Many posts and comments are gone. So needless to say, we are working hard behind the scenes to find missing posts and fix all the links. Sounds fun right??

We are very happy with our new look and features though! Here are a few changes:

  • We designed a nifty sidebar tabbed box to hold popular links (to be working soon), guest judge information and the latest photo challenge themes.
  • We love the new navigation bar with the scroll down menu. Much easier to find everything!
  • We’ve seen your amazing talent! For those of you who love to write and teach, we’ve added a submit a tutorial section. We can’t wait to hear from you.
  • Don’t miss our neat tool bar at the bottom of the page. You can easily share posts and do all kinds of fun things with it. We love how easy you can connect to Facebook and Twitter.
  • We also have a Give Back page and we would love to fill it with all kinds of great charities for photographers. So use that new suggestion page please.

Hopefully we’ll have everything working soon. In the meantime, if you can’t find something, our old website is still available.

Important: For new content, be sure to visit this site and please change ALL button links to www.iheartfaces.com.

**If your badge is not showing up on your blog, grab a new button here. Sorry for the inconvenience. (Just change it on your most recent post and sidebar… you don’t need to go back through old posts. We’re nice like that:-) If you don’t know how to add a button to your blog, we have instructions for blogger on our “grab a button” page. For other blogs, visit this site for instructions.

Love it!! (So does this mean we need to change the link on the button on our “Pets” blog posts?)

18 Julie {Angry Julie Monday} June 30, 2010

It looks beautiful! Switching to Wordpress took a ton of work for me, and I’m still getting used to it, over 6 months later.

19 Jeanette June 30, 2010

Awesome!! that’s much better!

It looks so great girls! Keep up the good work!

21 Alicia June 30, 2010

Love the new site! However, there is not a code for the buttons to put on our entries? Just curious as to how we need to go about attaching the button to our blog post entries. I’m sorry if I am missing something somewhere!! =(

22 Maranda June 30, 2010

Thanks for posting this! I wouldn’t have realized that the icon disappeared from my page if you hadn’t. The site looks great and I look forward to seeing what you guys do with it! Congrats!!

23 Coley June 30, 2010

Love the new look and much easier to navigate.

24 Jennifer June 30, 2010

Awesome!

25 Caroline (Frogmum) June 30, 2010

Looks nice, though I am a little sad you left blogger. I never find WP sites as easy to navigate! If you don’t mind though I am not going to go over the 125 iheartfaces posts that I have on my website to replace links and icons, but from here on in I will link up with the new codes.
Have fun with the new site :D

26 Pam D June 30, 2010

LOVE it!! It really is great to watch you stretch your wings, ladies… I can only imagine where you’ll be by January, at the two year mark. And wooohooo for the Pioneer Woman shout out that she gave on her contest post; what a HUGE plug! Now… do you have any merchandise out there with the new logo? My tshirt is getting a bit faded and the logo is obsolete. I need a new one! :<)

27 Haley June 30, 2010

29 Erin June 30, 2010

Love the look! How did you change from blogspot to wordpress, a wordpress website? Is there a link you can send me that would help? I love the look of your large left side margin, with the column on right. Much thanks!

30 Rhonda June 30, 2010

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!!
Great job ladies!!!

31 Becca June 30, 2010

Love the new site! But love more that it doesn’t freeze and crash my internet!!!

32 Screwed Up Texan June 30, 2010

Great job y’all! The new site looks fabulous! I’d change to Wordpress if I knew how to do all the server changes and what not, but I’m too chicken and broke to do it!

33 CM June 30, 2010

37 Victoria July 1, 2010

Love the site, but cannot find the code for the icon – just able to save image. HELP!

38 Kristen July 1, 2010

LOVE the new website!!! Ya’ll rock!

39 Maoda July 1, 2010

This is soooo friendly!

40 Sandra July 1, 2010

Great site!! But, having trouble with the code for the new button – I am only able to right click and save – is that what we are to do? Please help, Thank you!

41 Karen O'Donnell July 1, 2010

I too am having trouble finding the code for the new button. It only lets me copy or save the picture. When I paste it to my blog….it is just the pic not a link. I have tried a million (I may be exaggerating slightly here) solutions but nothing makes it a link. When I put the url for the button in it just shows up as a typed url not a button. Help please!

42 Karen O'Donnell July 1, 2010

Oh by the way…..I love the new site! Sorry I didn’t mention that in the previous post where I was pre-occupied with finding out how to use the new button icon.

43 Angie from I Heart Faces July 1, 2010

At this time we only have the right-click and save option for buttons. Once we get some of the behind-the-scenes work done (which will take some time) we’ll be able to have the coded buttons again.

Once you have uploaded the image to your site, you should be able to highlight the image and then make it linkable through your blog. If you don’t know how to do this, just put a text link back to our site underneath the button.

HTH!

Congrats on your move, girls! I just got a big-girl camera (Canon T1i) and hope to participate in some of your contests now. I’m having fun with it already, but have so much to learn.
