I think most people only give nice comments out on other members' work, so this group is a place for those who want "The Awful Truth". Join if you want truthful, objective feedback on your work. Do not join if "The Awful Truth" will make you cry...

Welcome, Aida! I took a look at your blog and I think you will fit right in. Of the things you would like to see happen here, I can suggest the following:

There is a call for entries on the front page which has been rss'd from a fiber arts resource. Other members occasionally list events as well. We have a group called "The Awful Truth" which is a place where members can ask for critiques on their work. You do have to join the group to get feedback there, or you can post in the general forum.

There isn't a main list of members' blogs and sites. Each member can list the links they have as you did, but there is also a marketing group and another one for bloggers and both will have some information. Please do join as many groups as you would like to and be sure that others will jump in when you have a question.

There are some tips on how to use this site under "Notes" on the front page. It helps if you click on the tabs at the top so you know where everything is. You can change your page to reflect your tastes- lots of templates available that you can tweak. And, every member here has a blog which is linked to the front page, a nice way to introduce yourself and to keep us updated on your news.

You are welcome to join any groups that you like and participate in the forum discussions as well. Load some photos soon as this is how most members begin interacting. Jump in and make yourself at home!
