Shellacked! --Sad News



All my blogging life
I wanted a signature and tonight I created one.

In gold.

(Because if my living room can't be gold, my signature can.)

In other news, maybe you've noticed I've switched blog ad agencies?

That is right, I am now part of team BlogHer.

Already I feel at home.

Every time you visit my little place here,

you'll be glad to know you are helping me:

one, raise money for The Chief's future

and

two, buy maternity clothes.

Gold maternity clothes.

Put that in your visualizer and enjoy the thought.

(Thank you for both!)

And now . . . . my signature:



Post-edit: Too many problems with my signature (Mac readers can't see it, for one) has forced me to ax it. The tragedy is all mine. All mine.

Believe me, it was beautiful while it lasted.

crissy said...

You look like a rock star in your picture. Gold photos suit you, but you're muy muy lovely, so anything suits you.

Ashley Millward said...

Love your picture! Can't wait to see your new outfits

Ashley said...

Best of luck on this new little one. And remember, bosoms are always in vogue..especially the bountiful ones-so flaunt your assets.

{april kennedy} said...

I love the title of this post. Your picture is hot and your signature...wicked! Now go buy maternity clothes that will make us proud!

Calico Sky said...

cjane you look lovely! Perfectly beautiful and glowing :)

The Queen of Chaos said...

Congrats on the new additions!

Gorgeous picture!

Amy said...

Love the sig! I just saw the CUTEST gold shoes for baby girl at Payless...might be worth the purchase just in case you need them!!

If all else fails you could put them on The Chief when Chup is not at home. My son liked girly things when he was little.

Gina said...

Love the signature, very posh, very superstar!

Tabitha (From Single to Married) said...

the signature looks great as does your picture! ps - you'll definitely need money for maternity clothes, those things are expensive!!

Liz said...

Love the photo! Love the signature!

Lisa said...

The picture is tres lovely, yes gold suits you, but all I can think of is "Busier than a one legged man in a rear kicking contest" and you know I mean that with nothing but love~!

KatieRae said...

Uh, just a lurker, but I wanted to let you know that I really can hardly see the signature. Is it just me? Everyone else said they liked it, so I even adjusted the contrast on my monitor, but no, not really. It is nice, but barely visible. Maybe I am color blind to gold...

Gerb said...

Always glad to contribute. Enjoy my 2 cents!

Heather said...

Well I've been reading your blog for over a year and wanted to say congrats on baby #2! While you are changing the signature to gold are you going to change your header picture? You look great in all your other photos and I think the angel photo just doesn't do you justice (couldn't find a nicer way to put that but really consider it!).

Teachinfourth said...

Anything to help Cjane reach 'Solid Gold' level...

By the way, did you realize that you're missing a leg? I think you must have dropped it someplace before the photoshoot.

Janelle said...

I'm with KatieRae, I can't see you signature... I thought it might just be me.

SO said...

Love that picture of you. Congratulations on your move. Shellacking suits you.

p.s. I have a hard time seeing your signature as well. You may want to up the gold factor...

Marianne said...

Hey! Is that the gold color your green walls should be? Very cute picture! What were you doing? Love the signature but it is light. Can you bold the gold??

Wendi said...

I love that you love gold. And what a fun title for your post. :)

cindy baldwin said...

Dear C Jane, the signature is nice but awfully hard to see!

Katy said...

I think you should darken the signature too. Kind of hard to see.

Chad and Jordan Wilson said...

love it!!

Staci Dombroski said...

Loving it!!!

Butternut Sage Designs said...

sexy!!!!

funderson said...

woo hoo! hot one-legged mama!

Clyde said...

Love your post photo - it suits perfectly your gold personality!

Get a darker shade of gold? Is that possible? At least, it's a good suggestion.

michelle said...

Buying new Mat clothes is one of the few fun things about a growing figure! Show us some great ones!

Ber said...

Your signiture is too light...razzle dazzle up the gold if you can and it will be perfection!

Jenny said...

Very nice! Can't wait to see the clothes.

Deborah said...

Good grief, you are a stunning woman! What I love about this photo besides your beauty is that it shows how much you love being a woman. Sizzling!

Queen B. said...

LOVE THAT PIC !!!!!!!

The Redhead Riter said...

Very cute signature. Lovely picture.

Emz said...

THe picture could not be any cuter! LOVE IT!

Gold is the new black.

beck said...

You look pretty.

chelsea said...

Where do you get a button to the Church's website? I've been looking on the website and can't find one anywhere

Sue said...

I'm having trouble seeing the signature, too. Is there any way to make it darker. It is just barely visible.

Motherboard said...

You've arrived now. GOLD signatures AND Blogher? I bow to your awesomeness!

(congrats on bambino numero dos!)

Brown Thumb Mama said...

w00t! Congrats on joining the BlogHer team. I've supplicated their advertising gods for ages and never heard a peep from them! I will click vigorously on your behalf. :o)

Erin said...

Cool...you look lush!

Pierce and Stacy said...

How did you make that?! I love it.

Jennifer said...

Love love love the signature. And I'm so proud of you switching to BlogHer. I'm sure you feel better about that.

Marianne said...

Long time reader. First time commenter--and I just wanted to say thanks for your humor. I LOVE it. And now I have my own signature, too!!

Rachel said...

Dear Courtney,
I can't see it! Is it because I have a MAC? People around here at work like to blame my inferior MAC for everything, so why not this? I say add a drop shadow to that signature, then your "golden." Oh why...why do I try to be funny? Hey hey!

Brian and Tonya said...

I am echoing the above comments. You look gorgeous and I love the signature :)

{Ginny and Paul} said...

Gold is your color! And I love blogher, very cool.

thedomesticfringe said...

Great picture! Very sexy in a chaste sorta way.

-FringeGirl

jones said...

congratulations!

tharker said...

Cute picture!

Petunia said...

I can barely see your signature. It's too pale against the white background. Maybe you need a darker gold color.

Azúcar said...

This is all because you saw my gold living room isn't it?

I knew it.

amelia said...

hey cute prego lady,
did anyone mention they couldn't see your signature? :O wow!!!
wouldn't it be nice if all monitors were created equal?

love the new touch!

Chelsie said...

I LOVE everything. You are adorable.

Merri said...

Ahh I love the signature! I need to get one.

Emily said...

I also cannot see the signature, and have a Mac. I can imagine it's quite beautiful...but it would be nice to actually see it. Please?

Maggie May said...

i love that photo of you. it shows you as the goddess you are.

Jennifer said...

you are so fabulous!!!!! btw, i love the tag on this post, i have seen it on a couple of your other posts recently & now i can't shake it... i think about being a crazy pants head & laugh!!!! my little family is definately a bunch of crazy pants heads...lol thank you :)

Jeannie said...

add me to those who think your cute signature is way too light. saturate it, girl.

pieface said...

I love the pict as well, and thought for the teeny, tiniest moment that maybe you only had one leg. Which I found even more impressive.

Liz said...

You look soooooo cool with those glasses on!

Congrats on your baby!

Jennifer said...

Congratulations on your switch and signature! Great milestones for your career!

Alexa Mae said...

HELLO Gorgeous!! You are one hot mama. Love your signature. Its so....you!! I actually think that color is perfect. Its not too gold where it's a bit much, but just the right amount of gold to top off your lovely posts. Have a fab weekend!

Amy F. said...

I'm disappointed not to see any mention of conference on your blog. You have such an amazing following, and it would be a great way to invite people to check it out.

Debor said...

I read your blog daily, Courtney, and now that I now my faithful following will aid in your new wardrobe, which in turn gives me something to look forward to - you wear the bestest stuff - I may have to check in twice a day!

Sandy Toes said...

Get "gold" curtains...with a little green??

Can I tell you? I love that video of you cooking with your friend...I laughed out loud!!!

Thank you for being real and just YOU! It's fun to watch!

HomeSpun Threads said...

are you being all sexy in one of those plastic storage buildings? It kinda looks that way? so, you think you can be so sexy anywhere? Yes Momma you can! Do you think maybe you have your spice back?

Raich said...

Can't see the gold sig very well :( I've gone to my blog before on someone elses computer and been so sad the font was weird or not how it is on mine..weird computer mumbo jumbo...My walls in my old house were gold, they were fabulous...except when my daughters first birthday pictures taken at night in my house had an unfixable gold tint...then i was giving the gold a dirty look, and then the recession took its turn at our house and i have wood ceilings..now I give them a dirty look...YOU look fab in your gold PIC!!

queenmari said...

i love your picture. you like a star! but wait, you are a star :)

--mari--

Rebecca said...

I love gold and I love you - but is it me - I can't really see your signature that well?! - maybe a darker gold is in order....just saying....:)

Kristi said...

I can't see the signature either. Sadly, I think gold might not be a web-safe color.

Sammi said...

Golden everything!

Anne said...

I know all of c jane's faithful followers will jump on me, because believe me I know her fans get really rabid when there is any criticism. With that being said, I just have to say that the way you all worship c jane is more that a little disturbing. She's just a person, folks.

Emilee said...

I can't see the signature.... I just happened upon your blog & was watching you make quesadillas. Your laugh is absolutely contagious. It reminds me of SSV- what fond memories I have of that place. :)

Lynda said...

I have a Mac. I saw the signature just fine. The other Mac users who couldn't see it must have been using an older version of Mac os.
Anyway, we can all see how beautiful and happy you are!

Jeannie said...

no! just pick another great color.

The Farmer's Wife said...

I must say...
You look like you belong in a magazine, girlie.

no foolin'
