Congratulations Suspsy!

What do you think about me making the front page look like this as well? So, instead of seeing the full reviews, there is a large gallery of clickable recent reviews.

Approved!

Nice touch to have a picture in the reviewers' bio, it is a way to make the blog and the community more friendly in my opinion.

Yes, putting faces to names adds a personal touch.

I think a few new reviewers have been added since I last posted in this thread.

Today I reinstated the account of @EmperorDinobot, who used to be an author many years ago, and has returned with a bang in recent years. 28 reviews and counting, thanks @EmperorDinobot! https://dinotoyblog.com/author/emperordinobot/

Remember to add a bio to your profile.

I did not realize @EmperorDinobot had reviews going back to 2008!

Yep, then an eight-year-break until they returned (as a guest reviewer) in 2016. I think it was towards the end of that break that I deactivated the original account.

I have been here since the beginning, and I will be here until the very end when the Aliens arrive...or something.

A while back I set up a 'Guest' author account specifically for guest reviews.  I also just set up an 'Announcements' account for all the content that isn't a review. It means my personal 'DinoToyBlog' account now shows just my reviews, which is good!
