Good news for my site. Today I got another link submission and have added the website to my directory. This new link went on to the shopping page and the shop sells Business Greeting Cards, they offer a wide range of greeting cards for business purposes covering all the holidays and special occasion such as birthdays, anniversarys, sympathy cards, get well cards and much more. Online shopping is increasingly in popularity for a ton of different reasons. Mainly because its much easier to find the things you want online and can save you the hassle of travelling to a shop, finding a parking place then waiting in a line for the checkout.
I have worked it out that if i get another 12 or so submissions i will be able to extend the directorys life for another year.
I decided my site needed upgrading so i payed the $25 and got myself a copy of the latest version of the php directory, the new admin area is a lot better than the old one. However when i upgraded i lost my old template so had to rebuild something quickly. In the old version i could add individual things to each page by using some of the smarty code {if $categoryid eq 8} type of thing but i cant seem to do it the same with the newer version 
Anyway the new admin area makes up for that. Since upgrading i have had a few more submissions, i need to re-configure the acceptance emails as im not sure i have them set correctly yet.
The latest link added to this directory is about rugs for your home, it has gone into the http://www.sparedirectory.com/shopping/home-and-garden/ category and you can read more about it here.
I might have a look around at some of the other templates later and see if there is one i like. Its much easier to add or change the template now with the newer version.
