Rating system

[Jencey/]

I would like to create a rating system that is better than I have now. Where do I find one and what am I looking for?

You could always look at other blogs for 'suggestions' of how to rate things. I think ultimately the way your rating system works is going to be something you decide, though. Do you want it to be simple like: 5 Stars=AMAZING 4 Stars=Pretty darn good 3 Stars=Ok or do you want it to be more than that? Questions to ask, I suppose. There's always the route of not rating books by stars or anything as well, I've recently decided that works a lot better for me.

If you're talking about something simple like a graphic or something than excuse that message and sorry I'm no help!

I chose Stars origianlly only because my blog was first called "Where You Wish Upon a Star". I've kept it since changing my blog title because i still love stars and they are an easy shape to create in Word, Paint, etc.

The Chicklit Club has an excllent 1-10 rating system that you can read its details on their About Us page. http://chicklitclub.com/aboutus.html

I am looking for the graphics that I can put into my blog. I just think it looks a little more official looking. I don't know if this helps.

GRaphics are virtually limitless!! I usually grab mine from google images and then cut and paste them with a paint program. I did this on my previous blog for funky and jewel toned stars. Now I use the basic syar from Word's autoshapes. Have fun!
