News from TasteStopping

Just a momentary break in the photo action to give a big thanks to all of  YOU: visitors, submitters, followers on Twitter and supporters.  It has been an awesome couple of weeks, with more great rejected photos to come.  I hope you have been checking out the comments under your photos and also those left on the TasteStopping “About” page. 

Plus, if you’ve missed it, here are some words of praise for TasteStopping:

Thanks to all of you for helping spread the word and grow this site!

**************************************

Please keep those rejected photos coming.  If you submit more than one at a time (and I thank you!), I will spread them out over several days (or weeks, if necessary) to get you the most exposure.  Please be sure to include the URL link to the specific post for your photo(s).  And, as always, you will receive an email notification when your photo goes up.  So, don’t fear if you don’t see your submission right away, it will be up here soon.  (If you’re worried it has been overlooked, don’t hesistate to email me.)

And finally, I am in the process of creating the new (or the alpha?) version of TasteStopping and would love to hear what you have to say.  What do you love about this site and what could be better?  Let me know in the comments below, or if you’re shy, drop me an email or a Tweet.  Email is: info (at) tastestopping.com and you can find me on Twitter @tastestopping.  I welcome your feedback as I move forward creating a site that will make it even easier to find a home for your rejected food photos.  (And, don’t tell, but I’m also working on a way to include all food bloggers in the fun here at TasteStopping.  More to come on that!)

Thanks again!  I look forward to hearing and seeing from you soon at TasteStopping.

Best,
Casey
