a brand new look and a brand new partnership!
We've been working very hard to bring you some fun new changes, so please spend some time checking out the new look of BigPictureScrapbooking.com -- we've introduced some new features and redesigned our site to make our website experience better for you!
As you're looking around, you'll see our brand-new Digital Studio, where we're launching an exciting new partnership with our friends at Shutterfly.com. You'll see some digi kits, some tutorials, and much more to come! I do hope you'll take the time to fill out our survey, too -- we are eager to create a site that gives you what you seek. Please give us some feedback!
Now, I could talk on and on about how much crazy fun we've had putting this together, but I want you to go check it out for yourself. When you're done, please come back to the blog and tell me what you like best and/or what you want us to expand. I'll pick one random lucky winner from the comments for a $25 gift certificate that can be used anywhere on our site. Have fun exploring, and come back to comment by 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on Sunday, July 27th to be eligible for the giveaway!
Have fun checking out our new site design and new features! We hope you LOVE what you find! (Now... we're going to take some much-needed naps, right, team? LOL!)
Great updated site! It's nice to see how much easier it is to navigate :) I'll be keeping watch of the new things coming!!

Clarity and simplicity are two words that surfaced when I visited the new site. I love the rolling quotes.
Nice colors

The new look is great and more manageable. My computer is loving the compatibility - no logging on EVERY single time! My dream wish would be to have the colour/quote combo e-mailed to me daily with the capability to forward it FAST to a friend! Love the new site - keep up the good work! Jennifer

I love the new look. The partnership with Shutterfly is a wonderful addition. I love how the classes are flashing on the home page. Good job on the design.

Great new website! I have to admit the "old" one wasn't bad either. Just keep offering those wonderful classes! Loved Baker's Dozen with Darci and I'm looking forward to Product Playground. Keep it coming!

Great job! I do web design so I understand the work involved. It looks great and I love the rounded corners on the images. Everything loads really fast for me. Congrats on your new "baby"!

Love the new face of BPS. Staying logged in is great, navigating is so easy. It would be cool if when in the gallery looking at the comments and who made them, one could click on name and go to their personal gallery. Just a thought, that i'm not attached to. Thanks for always looking ahead, moving forward. ( the addition of the digi component is brillant.

I like the new look and also the added digital studio. Am looking forward to trying a digital class soon.
Would enjoy a mini-album class in the future.
Your new partnership with Shutterfly looks like a good venture for everyone and look forward to seeing what else that partnership brings.

Wow--love the new look and new content! I'm a Shutterfly fan, and not (yet) a digi-scrapper, but am interested in learning... so I'm really pleased to see a BPS/S'fly partnership! I'll be hoping to see more digital kits/classes for newbies like me!!

I love the new digi section!
Posted by: Jill | July 24, 2008 at 07:59 PM
I like the new site. I like that I can show and hide classes that are already finished. I like all the pictures with the class links for registration.
Within the classrooms, I really like that we can comment on items in the galleries.
I don't do much digital, so I haven't explored much, but I have registered for the free classes.
I will complete the survey soon. The $25 will help with the $99 Cathy Z class I'd like to take!

I love the new digital section with the free digital designs. Thanks!

Loved it before and still love it now! I'm really enjoying just spending time browsing the site and dreaming and planning...
Posted by: Carol Darlene | July 23, 2008 at 08:44 PM
The new site is great! If I were you though, I would slow down the quotes a tad in the first page.... I find it is difficult to read that fast before they switch to a different designer quote. It sure does look nice though!
New free classes are nice, but my favorite thing is the thought of the upcoming class with "the great Cathy Zielske". (Now, I just have to come up with the money to pay for it... better find a new job soon! Although, if I were the $25 winner, that would help, too.)
Keep up the good work!

I love the new layout especially the fact that you can hide classes that have already been completed! That's awesome!! (or should I say...BIG!!) :)
Posted by: Irene Savakis | July 22, 2008 at 10:02 PM
The new layout is fantastic, and I really love the free digi-kits! I downloaded them the first day they were available and can't wait to take some time to play with them. I also appreciate how reasonable the cost is for the digi-classes; that makes me more inclined to give one a try.

I am signed up for quite a few classes and I am having a "FUN" and productive summer...I look foward to seeing what comes in the fall when the kiddies are back in school.I am so excited about going digital.
