I don't ask for followers, cause it means putting the person in an awkward position.

Are you on the MN bloggers network, Janglitz? If so, you are allowed to post a link here.

I think your blog is nice, and will likely be popular. The post on play was good - you should do more like that.

It is well set up, but you might like to look into doing a logo banner to make it a bit more personal.

I like your site also.

As for a banner, you could make one yourself in something like Paint, as it's not a bad graphics program these days, or, if you have a few bob, you can hire someone to make one for you.

I don't ask for followers, because I want people to follow my blog because they WANT to follow my blog, not because they've been asked or feel obliged to, if you see what I mean?
Likewise, I'll follow a blog if I like the content and style.
Not sure what I'd feel if someone said 'follow my blog and I'll follow yours." Um, I'd probably have a look at it, and if I liked what I saw then I might follow if I thought it was a good read.
If I didn't like it, then I wouldn't.
