RogerV: I know you're right. Making the Join links more visible will always be better. I will work to make it as obvious and inviting as possible. More than I've done now will take a more serious rework, but I will get to it.
I set-up a new join page for Blood Dolls. I haven't linked it yet, as there's a lot of pages to link from. The URL for it is
http://www.blood-dolls.com/signup/ I was wondering if that looks good to you guys, and if it's loading a slow as death for you too...
