A New Feature Here At The Asylum

UPDATE: Shan's Wordle Wednesdays will now be Shan's Week~End Wordles starting Saturday, March 7, 2009

Starting this week, we {I do have voices, you know...} will be hosting Shan's Wordle Wednesdays {NOW UPDATED to Shan's Week~End Wordles}.

Originally, I was just going to make this a weekly post for myself to see what would show up, but one of the outpatient therapy group members, LadyStyx, wanted it to be for all of us. A few others from the group seconded and thirded, etc., this suggestion/request and Shan's Wordle Wednesdays was born. Thanks guys! {I think...}

Not sure what this is? Then go here to see mine.

Wordles are completely customizable with colors {you can choose your own, or use their palettes}, layouts and fonts. You can put in your blog URL or just type in some random words to see what you get.

Shan's Wordle Wednesday participation suggestions/instructions:

1) Download MWSnap so that you can have a good size image on your blog post. The link the Wordle site gives you as a picture of your creation is very small. The site suggests making a screenshot for a larger image. I tried this, but it only gave me a blank image. A good friend suggested MWSnap which worked like a charm AND you can choose exactly what you want it to "snap" for you, just make sure you click the button that says "snap any area". {This is optional if you have another program that will do the same thing}

2) Go to Wordle.net to create your Wordle. {I use this color code chart to completely customize mine}



3) Post it on your blog with a link to Shan's Wordle Wednesdays {now updated to Shan's Week~End Wordles} or Last Shreds Of Sanity

4) Come back here to the Shan's Week~End Wordles post for that week and sign the Mr. Linky. Please leave a comment as well. I love comments.

{I am hoping that A) this will be a hit and B) No one steals this idea as their own or worse yet that someone already had the idea before me! Fingers crossed y'all!)
