I love these works and showcase three of my favorites: Arabesque, The Chase, and Harmony of the Angels.

Please, if you appreciate forum people, you may stop using this forum as a platform to promote your blog. One, two, or even three promoting posts can be funny but from 40 messages and up it becomes a bit annoying.

Thank you for your understanding  :)

I agree, and I wondered if and when anyone would say something.  Even if this pattern doesn't violate a policy or rule, it seems rude to post daily for the sole purpose of driving traffic to one's blog.  It seems to amount to advertising, after all, and that's not permitted.

music32, I wonder if you've tried doing this at Piano World.  The traffic there is much heavier ... as is the moderation.  I have a feeling it wouldn't be tolerated.
What passes you ain't for you.

Unfortunately she has, and sadly it is (though not without grumbling amongst the ranks).

Wow.  It never ceases to amaze me what is and is not tolerated at Frank Baxter's Sunday School.  The only thing that isn't surprising is how arbitrary the "rules" are and against whom they are enforced.
