I Can Has Question?
You can!
From GSTF -- "Why wait until you’re dead and pushing up flowers from the grave? Life is too short and we endeavour to inspire people and help them discover their reason to be and be the best they can or at least think about what they can change in their life for the better! Who doesn’t want that?"
Someone gave you the heads up and said, "I award you this marvelous green badge that says 'flower smeller' because I think you're a flower smelling kindah dude/dudess."You don't need to panic, but you should feel pretty nifty. Think of it as a pat on the back and someone giving you huge props. They like you, they really like you.
What do you do next? We'd like it if you told everyone that so&so thinks you're the bees knees, but you don't have to. There aren't any requirements. No obligation. And that's about it.
Should you be inspired to spread the love -- or become involved, you can. Pay it forward by nominating five other folks a few times a year. The standard is once a month, but we're not picky.
You COULD join the Blah-g Ring. That would be kinda kewl.
Eventually, there will be a book. You may be approached to add a blurb in the book about yourself if you've been given the Flower Smeller award. Again, you don't have to participate. A simple, "no thanks" is good enough for us.
So you think chartreuse is a yukky color? That's okay. We don't. If you have mad photoshop skills and want to make your own badge to match the dreamy colors on your website, we won't mind.
We're not a club, we're not a cult ... well, maybe we're a blossoming cult (didya catch that?) so you don't have to join up with anything, however -- should you be interested in participating in the forums or the blogs at Go! Smell the flowers, we're not going to stop you. Just be aware that there are thorns in this garden, and lively debate does happen from time to time.
For more information, do feel free to jump on over to the ABOUT section at GSTF, or message the Garden Ho, your very own Blue Collar Goddess right here.

Hi there. SuSu has honored me with a flower smeller and I don't know how to put one of your terrific badges on my blog. I wouldn't make it for the tech smeller badge. ha ha. Can you advise?
@Jaynebug - Save the image to your computer by right clicking and then click save, and then upload it to your Xanga either with the add photo feature in xTools, or with the Xanga uploader, then you'll have it, OR paste this: inside an image tag: http://x5f.xanga.com/c40c4bf005333187508345/w144026137.jpg
That is the URL of mine. An image tag begins []
If that doesn't come out right in the comments, it won't surprise me and I'll message you with the correct code.
@Jaynebug - Okay, the software here removed my tagging, so, I'll put it in a message.
We will get this done and you will feel like a web goddess when we're finished. At least that's how I felt when I learned how to do this stuff.
@SuSu - Ahh. Thank you for the help and I will enjoy the glow of wed goddessdom.
I has questions. You made me one that I will like. Did you tell me where to find it? Did I miss that? What does BUI mean? Here is what Google told me:
"Related phrases: bui tuong phong phong bui qui bui computer bui tin bui doi
Definitions of BUI on the Web:
<li>Arelative number expressing the cumulative effect of daily drying
factors and precipitation on fuels with a 10-day timelag constant.
www.bugwood.org/pfire/glossary.html
Find definitions of BUI in: Dutch English French German Italian all languages"
Unhelpful.
@Jaynebug - Thank YOU for the help. I found the blue
badge and it is now comfortably placed in my left sidebar. The green
one was just itching to get out of there.
@SuSu - BUI = "Blogging Under the Influence"
Similar, of course, to a DUI, but much less dangerous in most cases.
@BlueCollarGoddess - most cases?
...probably about as dangerous as I am BBA, blogging before awake.
BCGII... I has think you can be blahgaholic.
About time we dropped by - we've updated our profile here aswell!
