The pages will look more like Multiply as a result. I'll give you a heads up when it's complete. To be honest...it took me a while to get used to the set up over there....but the social interaction is much easier. I find Blogger very time consuming, hard to navigate and impossible to keep track of comments on friends sites.Rivergirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16370008475938225630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4317458159222048512.post-60308364909095447292012-10-29T19:00:38.885+00:002012-10-29T19:00:38.885+00:00I've had a quick look and my initial reaction ...I've had a quick look and my initial reaction is that Blogster is a little messy ... not your site ... just Blogster generally.

The levels in the reservoir seemed quite low at that time. I really like those 'touchstone' sculptures, a great idea.
