Another 'Ideal' Uniform and Those Pesky Thumblogger Popup Problems

Hi Folks: I just tried once again – and failed - to add a Thumblogger blog to my blog list. Just like the last time I did – towards the latter part of last year – I have started getting a popup demanding a password. Anyone out there have any idea how to get around this. I have come across a whole cornucopia Thumblogger blogs recently and it seems a shame I can’t feature them.
.....
For the time being I am going to remove the one link that I added, but I'm not in the mood to give up just yet. There's some good stuff out there in Thumblogger-land and I may try to set up a list of links to these blogs in the sidebar that operates in some manner other than through the traditional blog-link aproach.

Now, recall my post: Composite Uniform Design and the Imagination (just glance down the page or click the title). Well my collaborating artist chum in the ‘States has just sent me his attempts in putting together the elements of his ideal school uniform (Well done Snooze, great stuff). Actually he sent them to me several days ago, but what with one thing and another I am lagging well behind rummaging through my email in-tray. He does admit that he would like to put together a suitable blazer to go with it one of these days, but I think it’s great, if not my own personal vision – but that’s the whole point! Let’s see your personal vision - food for thought, is it not? I’m not suggesting the others of you out there that might be tempted to give it a go should stretch to the sophistication of generating a 3D model to dress up, but be my guest if you can – I’d be on too steep a learning curve if I tried it. But I still think it would be interesting to try to put together the elements of the perfect uniform using Photoshop-type techniques – as a concept it has the potential to open up a great insight into the psyche of the dominant (or submissive) and seems the perfect exercise to stretch the imagination.

As for the new book; it presently stands at 334 pages completed comprising some 187,500 words.

Just give the URL of the Thumblogger site and don't make it a link. Anyone whw want to go there can copy the link and paste into their browser.

Voila, no pop-ups
