As I was perusing the forum threads on Etsy, I came across one that told us about Scoutie Girl, a website with great finds from various indie artists. Anyway...Scoutie Girl will allow you to put up a free banner advertising your shop if they like your stuff. I submitted a link to my etsy shop and just got word that they liked my jewelry and Jan, THE Scoutie Girl, asked me for a banner.

Ummm...a banner? Ok, I think I can figure out how to create one. So I opened up GIMP, a program kind of like photoshop, played around a little, got very frustrated, but finally made a banner! It's so exhilirating and satisfying to learn something new and face your fears. In my case...anything computer related.

Here's my banner.
