Another week on a roll! It’s such an awesome feeling when you’re working on something you love to do! It’s been a really long time since I’ve had the feeling of wanting to work on my blogs over going out. Now if only I could get this pesky little thing called “a job” out of the way
Anyways, onto my action steps for the week:
- Through the help of my Mastermind group, I came up with a new name for this site. As much as I love the name Cats & Starfish, it just wasn’t descriptive enough with my tagline (which I love) for the site. Also, I want to save the word ‘Starfish‘ for my next project as it makes more sense to use it there. So soon enough, it will be resurrected. In the meantime, this blog will now be known as A Life Set Free as it seems to resonate more with the mission of this site.
- I bought my NEW domain name! This site is now going to be located at www.alifesetfree.com!
- I spent the better part of Sunday configuring the theme for CityVids.tv. It’s really a robust theme from WooThemes and I highly recommend them.
- I also went through almost all our posts on CityVids and added images and edited them. Still have to finish this up…
- I re-did my About Me page and am editing the About this Site page.
- I added the following plugins: Subscribe to Comments Reloaded and CommentLuv.
- I finally added my site to Feedburner and added my new social media/subscribe icons to the sidebar.
Now you can subscribe to this site via email!

Just curious – where did you get your social media icons / subscribe icons? I love them.
thanks Katie! I searched all over for free social media icons:
http://www.bloggodown.com/2009/05/400-beautiful-twitter-icons-for-your.html has a bunch of super cute twitter icons. I don’t think all of them are free, but a lot of them are.
This blog has a lot of free icons sets you can download from various sources: http://vandelaydesign.com/blog/design/best-free-icon-sets/
This is where I got the FB and RSS icons I believe: http://www.wpbeginner.com/showcase/mega-collection-of-the-best-free-social-media-icons-for-bloggers-and-designers/
The envelope icon, I downloaded free a long time ago from a web design blog and added the words “subscribe” to it.
Hope that helps!
