Frugal hackers: new badge for the blogroll!

Posted by: kimc on Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

The Frugal Blogroll is growing by leaps and bounds, and maybe you didn't expect to have the entire blogroll overtake your sidebar when you joined. Whiner. That's OK. You have a good reason to whine.

Try this on for size: instead of adding the entire blogroll, members have the option of adding the Frugal Hacks badge with a link back to the blogroll.

Just save this nifty why-yes-I-made-it-myself button and upload it to your blog with a link to http://frugalhacks.com/?page_id=65.

Your code will look something like this:

Need more help? If you ask really nicely, I'll upload it to flickr or somewhere for you, and give you the complete code to insert. But you'll have to ask. Otherwise I'll procrastinate forever.

update: I uploaded the image for y'all. The code above will actually work if you don't want to upload the image to your own location.

The code would be wonderful!

For some reason the code for the blog roll does not display the blogroll on my site – could be user error, but even I can copy and paste!

So code for this would be lovely!

thank you so much!

I think I’ll try this badge. The growing blogroll looks unwieldy on the sidebar.

The badge redirect should make Frugal Hacks traffic zoom, though! Kim, you are so crafty!
