Yeah, we get it. You can write your name in a script font and use it like your signature.

I bet you do that on your work email as well, like those 50 year old women who think it looks like their actual signature

Ah, watermarking. An obvious necessity for places like iStockPhoto and GettyImages, because they’re trying to get you to buy the image.

However, blogs watermarking images of a half used and scratched up bottle of hair serum? Um, OK. Still not sure why.

BRIT Awards 2010

Today marks the 30 year anniversary of the BRIT awards.

Its all about who’s wearing what and you can bet Heat magazine will be out in force to beat down those celebs.

Official sponsers this year include…

Sanctuary Spa- keeping those nervous and stressed celebs calm backstage with massages and facials…jealous!

Revlon will also be providing manicures. Any colours you see, you can bet they are from the new Spring Summer range and will be hitting our shelves soon.

Why yes, thats the whole post. No images, and not even a bit of fluff to say the author is looking forward to the Brits, or hopes so-and-so wins, or even why she’s mentioning these brands.

Nope, just this.

Perhaps this is a bit too nerdy. Perhaps I’m just being fussy. But bloggers (and I’m not specifically targeting this at the fashion and beauty lot, there are other culprits) - you can change fonts, etc by setting this on the actual web page.

Changing these things on each individual post is not only time consuming, but for those of us that use RSS readers to follow your blog, incredibly irritating. So you used a fixed width font to show you are indie, well done. Or you used all purple writing because it looks pretty.

Bad blogger, bad. Go sit in the corner and learn what CSS is.

The BeautyJudge UK Beauty Blog Awards 2010

Oh, gag. Overuse of italics and bold a little there?!

And yea, beauty bloggers are unpaid. Apart from the ones that get loads of free stuff that they then sell in ‘blog sales’ or on ebay.. plus their ad revenue of course.

I can’t wait to see which Everyday Woman (does that even make sense?!) has had the courage to start blogging, and the determination to keep blogging. Because the relatively anonymous world of blogging is such a scary minefield, honest. You need buckets of courage for this crap.

This whole awards website makes me squirm.

Lost 2 subscribers today which sucks!! “Followers” on a blog has become a very popular item on Blogger powered blogs lately. It seems to let people subscribe to the posts (although I’ve still not seen how, it doesn’t import the posts into Google Reader or anything) Mourning the loss of subscribers like the above quote is kinda pointless though. Are we back in high school, where the aim was to have as many friends (indeed, followers) as possible?

Outfit Photos

I get it, really I do. You want to show how unique you dress every day. But honestly, I don’t care about your clothes to want to see them on every post, especially when the blog entry is nothing to do with clothing. Start your own Tumblr to record what you wear every day if you want to save the details that much.

♥ Seen EVERYWHERE. Why are there millions of these all over the place, being used in titles, bullet points, etc?! Trust me, you’re more unique if you don’t pepper your blogs with these things nowadays.

Sorry Gala, but your random little sign offs (which are probably very cute on an email) are probably the thing thats started all this off.

Glam Kisses!! Spotted on the much talked about Independent article about fashion writers complaining about fashion and beauty bloggers, this was the perfect quote to start off this Tumblr
