I think this sets a record.
The badges were actually ready by 10 p.m. on Friday night, borne of nervous energy and insomnia, but I was not going to be that loser notifying the Twitter world I was ready for the next weekly writing challenge fewer than 24 hours after the first one ended.
So here we are a few hours after that.
If this is your first time here, I’ve gotta tell you how to find the coded badges you’ll need for yeah write #62. Look up in the far right of this page for a plus symbol inside of a disc. It’s up and to the right of the three social media icons. Click the plus sign and the hidden widget will drop. Grab the code you need for either the challenge grid or the hangout grid.
I made you guys on the hangout grid two new badges, the making of which is another sign of nervous anxiety. Some people drink, some people pull out their hair, I do both of those while mixing and matching design elements in the middle of the night.
Out of the eight badges now available, you can choose the one you like best for your yeah write post. If you’re on the hangout and you wanna use a challenge badge, change the coding.
Change
62-open-hangout
to
62-open-challenge
Same thing if you’re on the challenge and you wanna use a hangout badge.
Change
62-open-challenge
to
62-open-hangout
This is especially handy when you’ve already coded your post for the challenge grid, but something weird distracts you like a circus train getting lost in your neighborhood and you’re the only one who knows how to direct a derailed train filled with elderly elephants and psychotic circus queens back to the tracks near your grandmother’s old farm, and by the time you get back to the grid, it’s closed at 50 bloggers.
Simply change the coding in your challenge badge from -challenge to -hangout, link up on the hangout grid and have fun with us over there with the satisfaction you not only single-handedly saved the town circus, you now have a really good story to tell us for yeah write #63.
Yeah write #62 opens Tuesday.
I can admire them all, but that red one just screams “Pick me!”
The new badges rock! I am totally using one next week! 🙂
That orange and green is screaming my name…but I’m so in love with the retro badge you’ve got that I can’t shake it. I’m off to Twitter to ask for a prompt for my hangout offering…see ya!
those are swoon worthy and i don’t fancy myself a swooner…..
Then I shall take that as the most sincere compliment ever. Thanks, Robbie!
you know, you just pretty much impress the shit out of me. a feeling that is no less heartfelt for being inelegantly phrased. the interwebs are a better place because of this place you’ve made. had i an ounce of badge-ly talent, i’d make you a BIG badge that said something like CREATOR OF FANTASTIC WRITING SPACE or GODDESS or something.
The badges take a lot of insomnia and Photoshop. And trial and error. Do you remember my first ones? Ew. I’m like the goddess of eventually figuring out how to use design programs. That’s hard to fit on a button 🙂
You’re awesome, Deb.
