Design. I am playing with NiggyBuzz Blog Design again. LOL, I just can’t stop I think. The old one was based on K2 theme and I loved it, but site loaded too slow (at least for me). This new one looks nice, but not works good with IE6. What are your thoughts? I don’t use IE at all, I truly believe that Firefox and Netscape are very good browsers, but many NiggyBuzz readers still uses InternetExplorer so I need figure out somehow how to fix this theme… Also I want create new logo - more attractive one. I am not designer or programmer so all these things take a lot of time from me. If you use some different browser (not Firefox or Netscape), please, let me know how site looks for you. If I will not able to fix this new design in few weeks I will probably go back to old one…

And now about new option to advertise on this blog - ScratchBack. This is one really fun way to advertise, basically it’s just an online tip jar where friends, readers and fans of a blog can make a donation, and in addition to good karma, they get a text or image ad that appears in the widget. ScratchBack is an online “tipping” system. It allows you, the publisher, to accept tips and “give back” links or images in return. You name your price on your tips, and you earn money from every interaction through easy-to-use automated system. It’s free to sign-up, and you can have a TopSpot widget on your website or blog in minutes. Technically people are buying ads on your site, but you’re not really “selling” ads, you’re accepting tips. Advertisers (your readers) do get something in return; a link or an image that displays on your site, but it’s not an ad buy. They’re “scratching your back”.

You can find NiggyBuzz Blog ScratchBack in our side bar, every tip costs only $1, using Auto-Bump (This is the default method for setting up a TopSpot. Auto-bump means that every time somebody new tips you, that person moves to the top of the TopSpot list. Example: If you have 10 TopSpots available, and Reader A is in the #1 spot, and Reader B tips you after Reader A, then Reader B moves into the top spot, pushing Reader A one spot down. This also means that eventually, Reader A will be pushed off the list completely). It’s really fun! Yesterday I visited some blogs with this widget and ScratchBacked them .
