How To Display the Guild Member 2012 Logo on your page…
Displaying the Guild Member 2012 Logo on your page is fairly straight forward…
Right click on the image above and save it to your computer and then upload it to your blog’s media library.
Once you have done this copy and paste the file URL. (You may need to edit the media file to get this.)
Go to your blog ‘Dashboard’ and then to ‘Widgets’ (normally found under ‘Appearance’) and add a ‘Text’ widget where you want it.
Once located open that ‘Text’ widget and entitle/label it. (I usually call it Mental Health Writers’ Guild Member but it is up to you)
Then in the large box add the following script (removing the square brackets/parentheses)…
<a href=”[paste your file URL here]“><img title=”mhwgmember2012″ src=”[paste your file URL here]” alt=”" width=”295″ height=”413″ /></a>
[Put your blog name here] is proud to be a member of the Mental Health Writers’ Guild.
Further information concening the Guild can be foundhere.
Once you have done this..
check the ‘Autormatically add Paragraphs’ box and then ‘save’ and then ‘close’ the ‘Text’ widget.
Then view your blog to see how it looks.
NB: Please note that you can alter the size of the logo by adjusting the ‘width’ and ‘height’ within the above script but please try to keep the image in proportion.
To help you with this here is a list of alternative measurements..
I hope this helps.
I have checked out the other blogs that are joining in this endeaver and began following the ones that I hadn’t already been following. I am excited to get to know these wonderful people and learning so much from them. anyone who wants to make contact with my can call me Carla, thats for you too kevin!
I am so sorry. I thought that I replied to this comment earlier and it is only today that I noticed that I had somehow neglected to do so. My aoplogies for this.
The membership list is growing and I am delighted that so many wonderful blogs and bloggers are part of the Guild.
I really do hope that the guild can help each of us get acquainted with other bloggers who write about mental health and am encouraged that this is something you are willing to do. I am of the opinion that we all need encouragement and support in life and who better to get that from than folk who have a fairly good idea of some of the things we face.
KInd Regards.
Kevin.
Just reminding everyone that May is Mental Health Awareness Month, with two main areas of focus: 1. “Do More for 1 in 4″: A call to help the one in four people with a diagnosable mental illness; and 2. “Healing Trauma’s Invisible Wounds,” looking at the impact of traumatic events on both individuals and communities at large. See http://www.mentalhealthamerica.net/go/may for details and downloadable tool kits. Best, Candida
Thanks Canidida. I will post this as a main article also.
Kind Regards
Kevin
Thank you.
I am very happy to become a member of the Guild.

Look how your enterprise has grown, Kevin. You have really filled a needed niche-and should be quite proud if your contributions TI mental health online.
Hi Candida,
Thank you that really is very kind of you but all I do is facilitate, it is the members themselves who make this group so special.
Hope you are well.
Kind Regards and God bless you.
Kevin.

Hi there
Just wondering if you’d consider adding my site, At the Mountains of Madness, please? Thanks very much in advance for looking
My best
Karen
Hi Karen,
Many thanks for getting in touch regarding membership to the Mental Health Writers’ Guild.
Having had a chance to pop across and check out your blog ‘At The Mountains of Madness’ I am more than happy to include it in our Guild Members List and in fact have just done exactly that.
I should perhaps explain that in response to the stigma that is out there concerning mental illness, and out of respect for those bloggers who have decided to remain anonymous in their blogging, Guild Membership (and the permission to display our logo) is given specific to blogs and not blog owners.
Please feel free to explore the blog and please do take some time to check out our Membership and Guild Members Pages. Additionally please feel free to email me a bio for our Member’s Profile feature (More about this can be found here
As a member you are perfectly welcome to display the Guild Member’s logo on the aforementioned blog and this can be copied from the Guild Members Page and at the foot of that page there are also some tips on how to display the logo should you need them.
Over the next few days I hope to be able to visit your blog and spend a little more time getting to know you and your writing, So all that remains if for me to officially say “Welcome to our little band of bloggers” and “if there is anything I can do to help please just let me know.”
Kind Regards and God bless you.
Kevin
Thank you so much Kevin
I am pleased to be part of this and look forward to checking out everyone’s blogs and making new friends. Thank you for your kind words and take care in the meantime.
My best
Karen
[...] I wanted to check out — especially those listed in The Mental Health Writers’ Guild (http://mentalhealthwritersguild.wordpress.com/guild-members/) — and some whose blogs I began reading just weighed me down because of all the bad things [...]
Thank you much Kevin for adding me to this esteemed list!
No Worries
You only add to the quality already there
Kind Regards and God bless you
Kevin,
Congratulations Moose!!
Hi Kevin, I’ve tried to add the logo to my page by following the instructions, however it doesn’t seem to show up – not sure why! Do you have any idea what I might’ve done wrong? Also, I wasn’t sure if you noticed that where you have put “Further information concening the Guild can be foundhere.” there is no link back to this page.
Thanks, Anxious Elephant
Hi Kevin. I hope this finds you well. I wanted to let you know that I’m blogging at Sunny With a Chance of Armageddon now. I know it’s been awhile, but I do fully intend on getting on board with the guild and joining up. The announcement will be official today.
xx Lulu
