Thanks for a fantastic thread guys Especially you Claire 10 browny points.

I have learn a lot from this thread and the fact that I have just gone through the pain of interviewing copy writers and it is not an easy task as each one has a different style and cost both are subjective.

I must admit that I thought Copy writing was a alot of old tosh you put it in writing and job done until I decided to employ one.
I had a unanounced meeting with her this week and she has totally immersed herself not only in my site but also my personality and my target maket.

her office looked like an advert for post-it and sellotape there were piles upon piles of research everywhere.

It's saying I don't have permission for a signature

Steve does this on purpose, he made me wear a tutu and sing silent night before he let me have a signature!

Can't sing in tune and I'm definitely never going to be seen in a tutu - in public or in private!

Shhh Kip, The tutu was supposed to be a secret!

Just checked Claire, you should be able to create a signature, go to your User Control Panel and try again, and send me a Private Message if it still doesn't work.

Not quite sure what happened, Once you reach 10 posts, your account should be automatically upgraded, although sometimes it takes an hour or so to kick in

OK - I was probably too quick off the mark - it's working now.

Thanks
