Hey Ladies! Just wanted to let you know that Kim & I have decided on changing the way all of the contest folders are arranged. I think separating the one folder into the way it is now made it a little less confusing, but it still takes a lot of navigating to see all of the different contests & such. Here's what we came up with:

1. All open contests will be placed in a "Current Contests" folder. There should only be 4-5 threads in that folder in any given time so it will be vcery easy to see what contests are currently running.

2. All contests that have ended will be placed in an Archived Contests folder. This included all of the old Polls, nomination threads, etc.

3. Winners of all the contests will now be announced in the Siggy Lounge. This will make the announcements easier to find, and they won't clutter up the contest threads either.

We hope that consolidaitng the contest subfolders will eliminate having to look more than one place for all of the contest progress, and make everything a little less confusing. Big, big thanks to Rachel for taking on this project for us!

It will be nice to do less navigating. Putting the winners in the lounge seems strange to me, but I'm sure I will get used to it pretty quickly. Thanks Kim, Jenn and especially Rachel!

I think I got it all sorted Jenn. If it's not correct, just let me know and I'll fix it.

I like this, because I always feel like I am trying to find the current contests and never sure where or when to look. I'll do my first SOTW challenge next week, so I should post it in current contests or will there be time to get it all arranged by then?

Rachel is fast so it is done...so Kat you can go ahead and post it in current challenges...

We were going to do a winners folder, but then just realized that is one more folder to check...most of us check the lounge pretty often so we figured we can try it here instead of posting in here that the winner is posted in the winners folder...if it does not work, it can be changed later....hopefully this will still keep us organized but eliminate the need to visit several folders...since the contests are starting back up, we hope that alot of the makers will participate in them and vote...

Thanks Rachel for doing it so quickly...and Jenn and Rachel for dealing with my million emails yesterday...lol

I was just about to post about it! I finally have some time to play with siggies. It actually started out as using the other kit (this month's freebie from Peppermint creative) because it was a new years kit and I wanted to make myself a new year siggy since I skipped a xmas one. But I couldn't find everything I wanted in the other one so I went to look in yours! So don't worry about not having done everything... It's the other way around, I actually completed the other kit with your stuff!
