A Collection of Guestbook Images
A Guestbook is often the last thing a person sees on your lens - and your last chance to get them to comment. I like to edit a bit of my art and create a guestbook image that finishes off the lens nicely, ties into the theme, prompts someone to answer, and leaves them with a lovely lasting impression. It's also a good place to link to any last minute links.
Most Squidooers know that they should title the guestbook with something at least vaguely related - I prefer just calling it 'Guestbook' so it can be found easily. But an interesting subtitle, or a question is a very good idea. Prompt your visitors to answer. But artwork - artwork should ideally be related, but even if it isn't will liven up the lens a bit. I have tried to make Guestbook images individually tailored to each lens. And this lens collects them all.
I haven't added Guestbook images to all my lenses - my early ones don't have anything, some were not appropriate to the lens itself and a few I forgot, ran out of time, or couldn't reach editing software for. I tried to use different images for each, and my editing improved over time.
If you'd like to use one of these images you are very welcome - just credit me with a link back to this page, and add your lens to the plexo at the bottom. More rules and directions further down, for further complications.

Always Have A Guestbook
Let people leave comments about their visits!
Guestbooks allow people to respond, to ask questions, to tell you things. They make your lens look more 'open'. A guestbook is a necessary part of almost every lens.

Lord Vetinari ^_^ A quick one for Pratchett-related lenses.
This was an MSPaint creation! I was at university, and only had a mouse and a lot of boredom, and a lot of inspiration for the Invisible Cupcakes lens!
Would You Like To Use One of My Guestbook Images?
Leave a request here, and read the rules!
If it's on this lens, and I don't specifically say otherwise, you are welcome to use these images for your own guestbooks. I do obviously have some simple rules:
1. Credit
2. Credit me
3. Say where you got it from
4. Don't claim it as yours... wait, these are all the same!
How to Credit
You have a choice - You can simply link the image back to this page, or you can add a bit of text underneath, with a link - copying the HTML below is probably simplest. (You can edit it if you wish)
If you copy and paste this code into the text box:
<p align="right"><b style="font-weight: normal; font-variant: small-caps;">Guestbook Artwork by <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/guestbook-artwork">Flynn_the_Cat</a></b></p>
...it will appear neatly under the image on the right like this:

How to Add Images to Your Lenses
You can do a simple hotlink (It's all within Squidoo, anyway) or you can save one of the images and reupload it on either your own server, or directly to your lens using the 'Text with BIG picture' module. I would suggest you do the latter. If I edit this page in future, the images might change or be deleted.
Leave A Link Below
You don't have to tell me via email or comment or ask permission, if it's a simple matter of using one of the images here - but I do ask that you add your lens to the links plexo below. If you DO tell me, I can add it myself, but it's probably just as easy for you to add it and not worry about commenting! I do want to keep track of where they go, and of course
How to Request Images
If you really want something, and know what you want - you've seen a specific artwork that matches your lens, you have a phrase you want written on it - request it here.
(I do reserve the right to 1) be busy, 2) say certain art is off-limits, 3) Pick my own colours schemes on fonts - although you are free to suggest some. These are fairly rare situations though. And 4) I will upload any new images I make onto this lens.)

- I love this one that you are using for an avatar. Because of this I would never use it. It is already like a signature for you. If you are the artist, it is beautifully creative and I am very fond of it! I do rather enjoy making my own, when I do get around to it.

- I had not even thought about an image for the guestbook. I'll have to try it out, though any artwork that I could come up with would pale in comparison to what you have provided here.

- The one above! Such images would certainly prompt lens-visitors to leave a comment, rather than a plain, drab sentence.
