Hey all! Thanks for sticking around, I’ve been MIA for quite a while now. There’s been a lot happening in the t-shirt world, and I’ve spent the better part of an afternoon (or more) catching up on all the sweet designs and tee companies that have sprung up since the last time I wrote.

Those of you that have emailed me, I’m working through responses to everyone right now. I’ll get caught up with you soon enough though, your patience is appreciated! Now back to your regularly scheduled programming!

Hey everyone, I hope all is well. I just wanted to thank you all for continuing to stop by during my absence and let you know I’m still alive. Things have been pretty crazy offline as spring goes, but I’ll be back in the saddle with some new t-shirt content in the next few days hopefully.

Those of you that are new here, take a look around! There’s a ton of sweet tees in the archives and stuff for you to check out while I get my butt in gear.

A special thanks also goes out to all the new RSS subscribers, you guys are awesome. I’ll catch up with you all very soon!

Thanks for your patience while I was working on things tonight. I wanted to give everyone a brief rundown of the new things here tonight. I haven’t made all the changes I’ve wanted to, and a few things are partially implemented, but I’ll continue to roll things out in stages. I’ve only got so many hours in a day!

Wordpress 2.5 Upgrade
I know I’m a little late to the party on this one, but I upgraded Wordpress to version 2.5. That doesn’t mean a whole lot from your perspective, but it gives me some neat tools under the hood to keep things truckin’ along here.

Find T-Shirts
This is a new section in the sidebar. currently, it will allow you to sort the t-shirt reviews by price. It’s really self-explanatory, and I think it’ll help you find not only shirts that you like, but shirts that are in your price range.

Related Posts
At the end of each post you’ll find a group of related posts. The related posts plugin actually reads and compares articles and doesn’t just rely on tags, keywords and the post title. The result? The posts listed are your best bet for a next move when you’ve finished a review, unless you want to buy the shirt of course!

Post Ratings
You can also rate each post 1-5 stars now. You can either rate my review or how you like the t-shirt, either one works. As always, if you really want to leave some feedback, that comment link is your best friend.

Ad Changes
The banner ads at the top and bottom of the page have been removed. They were sold through Project Wonderful (which is a great service) but you may have noticed they were not as targeted as they should be and were often unrelated to t-shirts. I’ve since replaced them with context-sensitive ads in the sidebar, so there’s more t-shirt goodness and less webcomic crap!

There’s a small handful of other tweaks as well, but that about covers it for tonight. Hopefully these changes will help you better enjoy the time you spend at T-Shirt Review Blog. Thanks again for reading!

I just wanted to give everyone a quick heads-up about some maintenance I’ll be doing tonight. Things may be a bit hit-or-miss while I’m working, but I’ll see you soon enough on the other side!

My apologies for the lack of updates lately, sometimes you’ve just got stuff offline to take care of. Anyways, back to the shirts!

Hey everyone, just wanted to give you a heads-up here. There are a bunch of new links to t-shirt companies and stuff in the sidebar today. Quite a few of them are tee shops that I’ve come across in the last few days but haven’t had a chance to write about just yet. Check ‘em out!

Hey there! Just wanted to give you a quick heads-up. T-Shirt Review Blog now has a MySpace profile, so if you’re active there..stop by and say hello! http://www.myspace.com/tshirtreviewblog

You’re probably wondering where the hell I’ve been, eh? I’ve been doing a little work under the hood lately and wanted to give you all a heads-up on the new stuff here. Feel free to leave me your comments, I appreciate the input of course.

Changes in the header
Up at the top you might notice the tagline in the title graphic has changed from “So many shirts, so little time…” to “Find your next favorite shirt!” I made this change because I feel it’s a little bit more in line with what I’m trying to accomplish here. I want to help you find something that you’d love to wear, something you’ve just got to have.

The about and advertise links in the upper right are new as well. The old about link was tucked in the lower left corner of the header…many of you probably never knew it was there!

You can now advertise here
I had received some inquiries about advertising and realized I didn’t have a page to describe the options available. Click Advertise in the header to see your choices. An ad here is pretty cheap and reaches an incredibly targeted audience.

You can subscribe to tshirtreviewblog.com via email
At the top of the first sidebar you’ll notice an image you can click to subscribe to my RSS feed. I realize though that some of you don’t use (or prefer not to use) RSS newsreaders, and some of you might not know what RSS is. The link “Subscribe via email” gives you the opportunity to have each post delivered to your inbox like a newsletter.

I have some other improvements in mind, hopefully in February you’ll see those. That’s all for now, back to the shirts! I’ve got some awesome tees in the bank for you, so stay tuned!
