Hi everyone, Katie here.
THIS JUST IN. Glogirly and I are proud to announce the (birth?) of GLOGIRLY DESIGN. Most cats get their jollies out of playing with stuffed mice. A select few are lucky enough to get their paws on the real deal. But it probably comes as no surprise that MY toy of choice is Photoshop. So with the help of my
Glogirly and I just finished up an extreme blog makeover for our friend Bunny Jean Cook over at Bunny's Blog. In fact, she's running a GUEST POST BY ME on her blog today! As long as I promised not to eat any of the bunnies over there, she graciously turned her blog over to me for a day. Please stop by to see her new look and to give her some bunny-love.
Sneak Peek at Bunny's Before & After

ReplyDeleteThis is very exciting. And I think you will be very excited when you read Pricilla's blog in the morning....
ReplyDeleteI know Pricilla would love to enter this since I am so very helpless with Photoshop and she is a much cooler goat than I could ever make her.
I am so down with this! My human does lots of stuff in Photoshop, but one thing she kind of sucks at is the cool, modern, graphic work that Glogirly does!
ReplyDeleteYou know where to find me if I win! ;-)
We would LOVE to be included in the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOur Mommy finally got Photoshop but has yet to figure out how to make it work...
I do not know. I thinking eating the bunny sounds like much more fun!
ReplyDeleteYou know, this is one thing that Mom Julie is pitifully poor at is how to make me look exciting, debonair and all the things a mancat should be..
ReplyDeleteTo make up for it, I'd like to be entered in your drawing for a do-dad do and a better representation of my handsomeness..*ahem*
Tom xx
Well this is a brilliant idea. Goodonya GG&K for doing this!! :) For some reason Austin doesn't feel he needs to be entered for this???!!!! lol But good luck to everyone xx
ReplyDeleteBunny's Blog looks so cute after your makeover. We wonder if all of us would fit on an avatar?
ReplyDeletePlease enter us!! We need a new avatar. And we definitely need a blog make-over. We're gonna have the mom contact you about that.
ReplyDeleteHow cool! Whoa! Please enter me...I'm imagining an avatar of me with a sock...or cheese...or something!
ReplyDeletexoxo Cory
I would love an avatar.. I run a blog that has shared stories of many "differently abled" cats (such as Moki, Penny, Oskar, Brother, Anakin to name a few) and I'm expanding to include other animals. I would love to have an avatar better than the one being used now.. maybe YP with cat whiskers or a paw print in the background with YP written inside since it's the initials.
ReplyDeleteIt's going to be fun week on your blog, Katie! We're not going to enter today's draw, but good luck to those who do!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Count us in!
ReplyDeleteHi Katie - I just wanted to stop by and thank you and Glogirly for the Extreme Blog Makeover. I'm just so happy with the way it turned out. Good Luck to everyone who participates in Giveaway Week!
ReplyDeleteHow way cool is this!!?? Bunny's blog looks great. I'm on the fence whether to try for the av cos you've already made me such cool ones. Concats and much success on Glogirly Designs. xoxo
ReplyDeleteWe agree with everyone else. This is very cool! Please enter us.

This is a great giveaway! Please include us!
ReplyDeleteThe Florida Furkids and Lexi
Well, we would like to enter this giveaway, but not if winning it would disqualify us from the grand prize. Because you know we really, really, really NEED a blog design!
ReplyDeleteOMC OMC OMC!!!!!
ReplyDeletePlease sign us up! Mommy can barely press the shutter...
This is a great prize Katie, and I think you are a "hit" judging from all the comments. We'll pass on the make over for now. M is trying to learn Photoshop Elements, but she's slower than slow! Even the Book for Dummies was too complicated. ha ha
ReplyDeleteHey Callie, and everyone else too!
ReplyDeleteYou will not be disqualified for the Grand Prize if you enter and win any of the other days prizes.
: ) Katie & Glogirly
Hello! Of course we want to be entered and we can count FYI. Do you take Salmon bribes?

How neat is that! Katie, you and I have a lot in common 'cause I'm a bit of a reporter, too. Remember how I got that job with the animal shelter the peeps help? But, I'm afraid, that's where the similarities end 'cause your peeps are super good with computer stuff and whatnot and my peep is a technologically impaired duffer. I can say it 'cause it's true and I wouldn't want to be accused of lying. purrs
ReplyDeleteOoooooo!!! Please enter us! We would love to have a blog makeover, Meowm is useless in this area!
ReplyDeletejuniorbabee AT hotmail DOT com
How very exciting. Also the Woman said, she knew you had questions about WordPress but she can't remember what your person's questions were! Can you help?!
ReplyDeleteoh ya! a week of goodies!! I wanna win for sure, glad to hear I can enter this giveaway and still have a shot at the grand prize later in the week!
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful giveaway!
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT giveaway you are having this week !!!
ReplyDeleteI already have a GREAT avatar to use , that of course are made by Glogirl design :)
So I can skip this day´s giveaway and give the chance to somebody else.
No me and mom have NOT missed that you are one of the finalist in Best Blog Post in the 2012 Petties :)
Wooo-hoo! Mom doesn't even have photoshop in her puter. I would probably starve if she had it. She would be photoshopping away all day!
ReplyDeleteBut I do envy the results. And dream....
We already voted today. Wonder who gotted our votes????
ReplyDeleteI was over by Bunny's yesterday, darn impressive gang!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea for a giveaway! So glad that the overseas folks can win, too. Bunny's blog looks fabulous. Our email is in our profile. Purrs.

ReplyDeleteHi Katie,
ReplyDeleteThat's very cool that you're allowing Glogirly to work with you on your design business. I can't wait to see all of the prizes you plan on giving out this week.

This is too cool, too! We tried avatars, but we still like yours better! Please enter our names for this as well.
ReplyDeleteKatie, you are a very cute kitty! My favorites are you with the tiara and you with the heart & fish! I'd love to be entered in your avatar giveaway. I found your blog through reading the Petties nominees. I look forward to reading your posts, Mary splendidsummer@aol.com
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a blog so we don't need a make-over, but we love the new bunny page look. The green is so nice and soothing. Didn't you also redesign the Housecat Confidential blog? We love that one too!
ReplyDeletePS. I do miss the picture of Glogirly strangling, I mean with her hands around your shoulders.
Wow, your new stuff is just THE COOLEST! If we could design like you, we wouldn't have to shuffle and jive to get an extra bit of sumthin' in our bowl.... Hey! Can we get a little tuna over here!
ReplyDeleteoops sorry, We would love to win,win,win!
