Open for business! June 17, 2007

Destash! is finally ready to go! Thanks so much for your patience while we are figuring out all the quirks with wordpress and re-starting a HUGE group.

I’m going to be putting together an FAQ in a little bit and will keep updating it as questions come in.

Happy Destashing!

When You Get an Invite June 16, 2007

I was just checking some of the awesome people joining the blog and noticed some blank blogs on the blogroll. Just to clarify, you don’t have to accept WordPress’ suggestion to create a blog to join this destash blog. Make sure you check the option to just create an account and you’ll have access to this blog where you can include your own blog info if you use other programs like Blogger or Typepad. I hope that helps. A big thanks to all of ya’ll for keeping the passion of destashing going!

ETA: Just in case anyone is wondering, we are seeing some pre-posts and they are looking really great. The posts are in moderation land until Monday’s grand opening. Keep up the drafting and your destash will be ready to go.

ETA #2: If you can see Destash on your dashboard that means you are a member. Amy

Friday’s update and a button! June 15, 2007

Hey folks,

Things are moving right along here. Getting people added to the blog seems to be going fairly smoothly. We’re working on things from the post moderation perspective. I expect things to be up and running by Monday. I’m sorry for the delay, but I’ve never run a group on wordpress want to try to get things right the first time! If you’re a member you can work on your posts, etc., but they probably won’t get approved until we’ve got everything under control. Also, the post guidelines haven’t been finalized yet, so things may change, so draft at your own risk 🙂

To tide you over, here’s a button:

link for the button:

I believe that it is okay for you to use the code as is, since it it loaded on to the blogs’s wordpress account. I am not a hotlinking expert though, so people can feel free to correct me.

If you have any questions feel free to comment here!

Update June 14, 2007

Since the email was sent out by the original destash blog owners there has been a flurry of email activity and blog creation activity. I will say that I am happy to maintain and run a destash site along with the help of some other people who have already volunteered to help. I also have no problem with there being multiple destash sites, the internet is big enough for all of us.

I have added or invited everyone who emailed me as of 1:30 eastern time today. If you have emailed me and have not been added or received an invite, please email me again. I’ll open membership to everyone just as soon as I get the moderation team together. If you would like to help please comment here.

I will keep updating as things progress. I’m sure there will be a few bumps in the road, but I really loved the old Destash site, so I hope we can keep things going!

Hello world! June 14, 2007

This post is a place holder for a new Destash for your Cash blog.

Since the blogger one is closing, I thought that we could start a new one. Check back here in a few days for updates.
