100 Lenses and Counting

So this is it, lens number 100. It didn't dawn on me until this morning that this lens should be a special one, I don't care if it gets a lot of traffic, but that would be cool. I just want to give back to those that I have met and networked with on Squidoo throughout the 2.5 years that I've been here. I have used so many of their help lenses, tools, and support which have helped me keep moving forward over the last couple of years.

The order of the lensmasters listed here, really doesn't matter; it's the thought that counts.

Thanks to my favorite lensmasters 

Check back often, I'm adding more great people every day.

GypsyOwl 

I kind of borrowed this idea from GypsyOwl's 100th lens so I'm going to put her first.That's not the only reason, she's also a really cool person that gives back to the community. She runs the Gimp Tutorial group which I'm going through with a fine tooth comb in the near future. I really need to start expanding out and doing my own graphics or at least some of the more simple ones. Gimp is a great way to get started because the software is open source and free.

Another reason GypsyOwl is listed here is she is always running cool contests to help other lensmasters think of ideas for a cool lens.

Thank you GypsyOwl for being a great Squidoo member.

PotPieGirl 

There are many people that know Jennifer from Potpiegirl.com and I can say I remember her from when back when before she was famous :)

There are many people that agree and disagree with Potpiegirl, but no matter what you think about her One Week Marketing plan, you can't disagree that she is still a wonderful and upstanding citizen of the community. I also look up to her because she is living proof that you can work from nothing to making a living online.

Potpiegirl.com updates 

I love Jennifer's blog posts, she has a real simple way of teaching the most complicated things. I even learn things from her when I think I know what her post is about.

Gypsy Pirate 

Gypsy Pirate is the whole reason that I'm a Giant Squid right now. She must have been perusing Squidoo one day and found me. At the time I actually had about 80 lenses, but I really didn't think they were good enough so I never submitted my own name to be eligible. She said I should, but I still didn't think they were good enough so I didn't submit my name. Well, Gypsy must have submitted my name anyways which made me even more surprised when the Giant Squid emails were sent out and I had found out that I made it. I don't know if I ever thanked her, so I hope she'll accept my sincerest thank yous here from this lens.

Fluffanutta 

When talking about Squidoo, who can forget about thanking Fluffanutta, creator of a bunch of great tools that we all take advantage of. If you aren't using the tools he provides over at Squidutils, then you are absolutely crazy. Of all the tools I use the most over there, I'd have to say it's the backlink checker. I use this tool more than I should, I tend to find myself there when I'm stuck which doesn't help me get somewhere faster. That's not his fault though :)

I've always wondered what his name stands for; maybe he'll tell the world sometime.

Seth Godin 


Tribes:
We Need You to Lead Us

How can anyone that uses and loves Squidoo have a thank you lens without mentioning it's founder, Seth Godin. Thank you for offering this free platform to all of us to get the word out about our favorite subjects and things. I am so glad that I found Squidoo when I did.

Why Build a Lens is a must read for you if you think you may be interested in building a lens.

Thank YOU for stopping by, I appreciate it 

I hope to add more lensmasters soon, but I have tons of ideas for fresh lenses and I truly want to make this lens my 100th published on this account.

Janusz 

Janusz is the lensmaster that made the 100th lens graphic at the beginning of this lens. I believe he also made one for those of you that are on their way to publishing 50 lenses. He has made a ton of graphics on his own free time that you can find through his lensmaster profile. The funny thinkg is, I have Janusz as a friend on Facebook, but I wasn't even following him on Squidoo.

If you are looking to jazz up your lens a little, stop by Free Spacers and Fillers for your lens and give him a great big thank you for all he has done now and in the future (we hope).
