Year 1 Banner Gallery: Sept 19 2005 - Sept 18 2006

Designers who Blog is not just about blogs (the written word, design or lack of, plugins, platform or subject), but the designers behind the blogs. The face behind the posts.

As I scroll down through the 134 or so banners I think back to first contact. Back to strangers sharing ideas and talents, enlarging the conversation, becoming acquaintances, some becoming friends.

With all the time and effort it has taken, I have to ask myself. “Has blogging enlarged my life for the better?” Absolutely.

And how cheesy it that?

Be sure to check out the banners from Yr-2 (91 banners) and Yr-3 (still growing).

Note: The banners link to the individual features on DWB, not their blogs. Reason, blogs come and go and keeping up with dead links is crazy making.
