January 16th, 2009
On January 16 2008 we launched the YLF forum. I wasn’t sure how popular it would be with YLF readers, and I was totally unprepared for the extent to which I would get addicted to the site we created. I never imagined feeling a connection to online friends, let alone actually meeting them in person. I was so, so wrong.
Logging on to hear and see you express your style quotient is a highlight of my day. Thank you forum members for helping me by helping each other. I am in constant awe of your generosity, kindheartedness, perseverance, assertiveness, intelligence and wit. You make the YLF forum a safe and wonderful place.

Happy Anniversary to YOU! I know I started reading your site on a regular basis after seeing the link to the ’short rise vs. short waisted’ article you wrote but I can’t remember where the link was posted.
In any case, it’s been educational and I’m finally starting to feel more comfortable in my wardrobe, thanks to you! Here’s to many more years of success!

Angie – it is absolutely due to your expertise and true love of fashion, and your desire to make all of us as fab as we can be.

Congratulations Angie and Greg and the forum members who make it so special. I have never been involved in an internet forum before this and am amzed at the community and goodwill that has been brought out. The opportunity to actually interact in implementing fashion advice makes a big difference. Thanks for all your work!

Happy birthday, YLF forums! Generally I do not participate in online forums because they always just seems to bring out the worst in people, but the people on these forums have been nothing but kind, helpful, gracious, and generous. I am SO happy I decided to give it a bash. I have yet to see a more positive and encouraging group of people on the internet. It also amazes me that I have made a group of friends who are so different than my usual demographic. It’s nice to have more diversity, especially in age. I appreciate the wisdom of my elders
Thank you so much Angie and Greg! It has been a great year!
Posted on January 16th, 2009 at 7:25 pm

Congrats.
I enjoy this site a lot. I do not participate in the forum much. But I definitely feel like I learn a lot by just reading the questions and Angie’s posts. I am always surprised at how everybody in the forum is willing to help each other.
Thanks Angie & Greg and all the forum members.

I have followed this site almost from the very beginning when Angie started blogging and I was so happy I found it. The forum took this site to a whole new level. I am truly thankful for all the wealth of information that I have learned on the forum this year. I tell everyone that is interested to come and check out the site!
Thank you sincerely for all the hard work Angie and Greg! You have truly touched the hearts and lives of many.

*sniff*
I am taken aback. Your awfully kind words and loyalty to this site means a great deal to us. I can scarcely believe that there are people who have been visiting for almost 3 years. Please know that sharing my knowledge with you gives me great, great pleasure. YLF is a natural and important part of my day. To be without it and therefore you, would cause major withdrawals. Thank you everyone.
Posted on January 19th, 2009 at 9:14 am
Oh Angie, I am just catching up on blog-reading. This entry really touched me. I cannot believe the forum has only been going for a year. Its an amazing group of people you have gathered – that really says something about you!!!
