Call for Prompts

For July 8, Harshad Mehta of Space Within Me suggests balloon.

For July 15, Prema of Inner Space suggests friend.

The New Look of One Single Impression

Before the prompt is posted in just over one hour, I wanted to tell you about our new look. I've been thinking that the old OSI is dated. Blogger has new, versatile templates and they are fun to work with.

I need your feedback. What needs improvement? If you can't read something, it has to be fixed. So please let me know. All comments are e-mailed to me, so I'll be reading them and I will be paying attention to what you need.

My first question to be answered is the text on the banner — I think it is superfluous and redundant. Does anything besides "One Single Impression" have to be there? If so, what should it be?

I don't know if I'll be keeping the hydrangea banner or not. You may have suggestions for banners. They have to be 980x215 pixels. The banner text is not on the banner — it's from an element in Google. We could have seasonal banners or collages . . . just about anything that reflects the phrase "One Single Impression."

Let me know! Don't be shy. Just be gentle!

Call for Prompts

It's time again to extend our list of prompts. Please send one suggestion to us in a comment on this post. We will update the schedule and post it so you can write as the spirit moves you. Also, we like to post a poem and image each Sunday with a link back to the poet who suggested the prompt. We need to have your work by the Friday before that posting date. Of course, if you finish it any time before it is schedule to run, we can prepare that post well in advance, too!
