I'm just dumbfounded. I've been struggling to get a couple side bar buttons/links to work. I've been asking at their forum and no one was able to answer why the images weren't working. I contacted support, double checking that it was okay to link to my Cafe Press site as well as trying to figure out why my images weren't showing up.

Support couldn't help with the images, but told me Cafe Press was okay.

I left to take a bath, came back to post just now and my BLOG HAS BEEN SUSPENDED! No email explaining why. No communication what so ever, just saying I've violated terms of service. They highlighted this:

the Content is not spam, and does not contain unethical or unwanted commercial content designed to drive traffic to third party sites or boost the search engine rankings of third party sites, or to further unlawful acts (such as phishing) or mislead recipients as to the source of the material (such as spoofing);

All I can figure is, if Cafe Press is okay, that they don't like the blog for a year link. But why the heck don't they allow people the opportunity to take it down instead of suspending the account?

That's just awful of them to do!! Especially after you had been in contact with them. Gee whiz! Hope you get things settled soon- how else will I be able to find out what you've found in the creepiest of all places?!

Sigh...thanks for allowing me to vent my frustraions, ladies.

Karin, until it gets back up, which it should, I'm back at Blogger. And I promise not to post any new creepiness until my wordpress blog is back up and running And I DO have a creepy to share.

As it turns out, they were questioning the bucking lamb blog, where I had a whopping two posts in over a months time, and I was offering lotion for sale in one post, and photography in another. This, they say violates the terms of service, as they don't want the blogs used for commercial gain (I suspect that's just the free service )

However, instead of taking down the one offending blog, they suspended my account. They have since put the bucking lamb blog back up, but not the carpenter creek one I've emailed (naturally), but who knows when they'll get back to me!
