Ever After Is Listed!
I logged into my wordpress account today, and on my dashboard, I see a new incoming link from Most Inspired, a CSS showcase gallery/weblog. Guess what, Ever After got listed as one of the recent inspirations! That’s not all. I visited the site just because it’s awesome to see my blog being featured, for the first time, on a CSS showcase gallery. I found out from Most Inspired that my site was also featured on CSS Mania, yet another showcase gallery! Ok, so maybe I shouldn’t be so surprised because I did submit my site in, but I was shocked that they’d actually feature it.
Obviously, I’m happy that my site is being featured out there, but at the same time, I know that this isn’t my design. I’m using a premade theme. So really, those sites are giving props to the original creator of the theme, not me. Well, I tweaked it here and there and I added banner, but really, it’s not saying much. :/ So I try to look on the bright side, and it’s that my site is up on those galleries to stay! Yay to quality backlinks.
I’m going back to submitting my site to other galleries now. Hopefully I’ll be seeing more of those incoming links on my dashboard as time goes on. You guys should do it too. Even if your site doesn’t get listed, it still gives the reviewers an opportunity to check your site out. More traffic and pageviews! 
[UPDATE] Ever After is also listed on Light On Dark and on CSS Star now! Visit and leave a good rating? I’ll give you a cookie in return

Glad to know that you admit the design is not orginally yours.

To Daus: I’ll give credit where credit is due. Besides, the original designer of this theme did do a great job.
