| CSS Overhaul Let's give BlogShares a facelift. Satisfy these goals and we'll freshen up the CSS. We might even hold a big contest for you all to submit your perfect design for consideration as the new CSS style (or styles ???) if you all think you're up to the task. ;) | ![]() Donate B$! | |

Help the site grow, pay the coders for their hard work, and use your assets to support a community you love!
How This Works:
Each of the items listed above is an improvement, tool, upgrade, or new functionality that the Board of Directors (BoD) is considering working on at any given time.
BlogShares projects often take many hours of code work and testing, and finding time to work on all the projects on the agenda is often difficult when non-B$ paying projects must take priority.
You, the player, can help us spend more time on the site. Contribute your B$ cash or real life cash to your favorite projects through the buttons under each goal.
When the B$ Goal and Cash Goal are each met for an item, the BoD commits to developing or implementing the item as soon as possible (often within a week, larger projects may take much longer).
Note: The comprehensive blog search is a project that is absolutely a priority, but it cannot be considered a potential candidate until we have a better database box.
