Did You Notice the Revamped Homepage?

Wed, 9 Oct 2019 04:44:14 -0400

Indeed, it’s been a longtime coming, but the homepage makeover is finally here. For comparison, feel free to see the way it used to look as captured through the inescapable Wayback Machine Internet Archive 🗗. As you can see from this, we’ve made some major as well as subtle changes. For the main differences, we removed the Table of Contents (TOC) and replaced it with much cooler photo montages plus related paragraphed write-ups. In addition, the subtle changes include more white-space and larger button menus to make it all easier on the eyes. We’ve also added some fun interactive site previews such as Idea of the Day and Random Finds for you to explore. Apart from this, we hope to include some quizzes and polls soon – just for fun as another interactive way for you to test your card crafting resolve. So, thank you for your patience during all the site construction. There are still a few more kinks to work out. Nonetheless, the new homepage is now ready for your perusal at www.Creative-Greeting-Card-Ideas.Com.

The Itinerant Greeting Card Adventurers Returns!

Thu, 30 May 2019 01:50:58 -0400

Yes, the site has been less active than we would have liked for a while now. This is because we focused on our itinerant status, which meant less attention to creating new greeting cards. The good news is that the opposite is now true. Hence, as we’re now settling down, we’re also increasing our focus on our greeting cards - slowly but surely. Needless to say, the first steps would be to bring the site up to date with regards to current global conditions and expectations. This includes converting the site to the much more secure (https) status, adding a privacy policy page, and many more. So, we’ll work on these first before we even start thinking of creating new greeting cards for your perusal. Either way, please don’t hesitate to let us know what you think as we share all these rollouts with you. Enjoy!
