I got this in my email box today and thought I would share it with you. It’s a simple message but if you really believe the words, it is very powerful:

Love yourself; you deserve it.

Have a great day!

I have a cool little app called WavePad and I can edit mp3′s and wavs with it. I thought I’d create a couple of audio files so you visitors can hear me if you want to. I had lots of fun messing with this and I think I’m going to get some more recording equipment so that I can combine a guitar track with my voice.

You have 2 choices: click the blue arrow to play the audio file or click the link to download.

1. Karen – A Reading from The Lord of the Rings

2. Karen – A Small A Cappella Clip from Here Comes the Rain Again

Last week I received an email from Ethan S., who asked me about licensing issues regarding my free XHTML templates. After I re-assured him that my templates are restriction-free and in the Public Domain, he emailed me to show me what he did with his site.

He’s using my template, Golden Leaves, and has put up a new twist to the MillionDollarPage concept.

We have created an interactive, self-guided virtual world where the only limits are the imaginations of the numerous contributors.

For a mere $99, contributors or anyone looking for a great advertising concept can purchase a spot on one of the pages using a 130 x 100 static banner in .jpg format. For more info, visit PathofChoices.com.

I think this is a wonderful idea and wish Ethan best of luck. I hope he reaches his goal of $1,000,000 over the next couple of years.

This template is a 2-column fixed width style with 5 images: header, main wrapper, footer, and left side backgrounds and one more for display purposes. It has been tested on the latest version of Firefox, IE6 and Opera. Feel free to use it for whatever you wish as it is released under the Public Domain and I’ve just submitted it to OpenWebDesign.org. I would love to hear from you if you do use it.

I’m in the process of creating a WordPress theme for this template so there are lots of extras in the stylesheet. Be sure and come back soon for the latest news.

Fall is really a beautiful season. I live 2 minutes away from a country road and right now it’s so gorgeous. The leaves are changing colors to red, yellow and orange. I just love it.

Fall is also the time for harvest and Thanksgiving. In that spirit, I’m in the process of creating a template called Harvest. I should have it ready in a day or 2.

Meanwhile, I have 2 other templates created last fall that might suit your fall-themed website:

Fall Leaves
A fun template with a clean crisp feel of leaves in fall. View/Download

Golden Leaves
A simple clean template for a fun site consisting of 3 sliced images to create the container, header, background, and footer. View/Download

Enjoy!
