Giles ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

IIRC Liese isn't fond of the large corporate bookstores.
Which doesn't so much mean the following wouldn't be useful to those who do wish to shop there.
I think we might as well join some affiliate programs. Once we have, it makes sense to put those links where we put all our links.
I'm not fond of them either, aurelia, but I don't really care if there is an affiliate link. I'd just be unlikely to use it, as I tend to shop at indie bookstores.
I can see that. I don't shop at Amazon, on a philosophical objection. But it's not the sort of objection that means I care if anyone else does, or if we get money from others doing so.
eBay? CDBaby? I have no problem with them.
I should've finished my thought before posting. See edit.
I don't see how your user experience will change, Gus, if you don't want to use the links. Are you bothered by the other links on the link page that you don't use?
Nope. Affiliate links on the link page works, for me. People getting spanked for not using the affiliate links doesn't.

Book sales are book sales. Sell more books, I say.
t smooches Liese, in whatever smooching way is acceptable way out in the desert

Yeah, see, that's an argument you're going to have to hold onto until someone a) suggests it or b) you can show it's a likely result of my suggestion.
Cause I got nothing for you.
Holy crap! How do you bookmark a post? I have only been here a few years, so it is not immediately apparent.

You hit "Mark," fool.

Well, if rumor is to be trusted, some of the Buffistas have been known to engage in the odd spanking ritual or two, so it's not entirely unlikely....
Gus, darling, click "Mark" after the post number. Once that has been accomplished, look to the left hand side of the screen, in the Message Center link area, and click on "View Bookmarks" to, incidentally, view your bookmarks.
Mwah!
