For those of you that are loyal SMP-ers, you know that we’ve been testing out our new social network, the Style Circle. Well, although we are still in Beta (read…test mode for all you non-techies like myself), we are opening up our circle to the first 500 brides who are looking to get a little sneak peek of the new feature!
The best part (aside from the fact that you get to shmooze with other like minded, totally style-savvy brides)…the inspiration board builder! It’s AWESOME. Completely awesome, people. And although we know that others have built similar tools, this has been in production for a long time and to be honest, it kicks some serious butt.
So…line up ladies! We are opening up the doors to the first 500 brides and wedding junkies! We’ll have a proper unveiling and launch in the next couple of weeks. Until then, I hope you love what you see!!
PS…The Style Circle works best in Firefox. We are still working out some kinks in Internet Explorer.

Does anyone know who designed the dress shown on the inspiration board used to announce the new Style Circle community?

Thank you, Abby!
I can't get over how fabulous the whole Style Circle is! Abby, this is truly taking your site / career to a whole new level! Genius! Congratulations, it's obvious how much love and labor you have put into this new feature.
Very cool Abby. I'm excited I'm one of the first 500 brides to try it :)
Please sign me up! I've been stockpiling images for weeks in anticipation of the inspiration board feature!

Oh and we are working on allowing you to upload your own photos with the board builder. It should be done soon. For now, you can only use photos in our galleries:)
I would love to be involved! The inspiration board feature sounds amazing! Please sign me up!
Great! I was wondering why I couldn't add my own photos!
Yay! I'm in!!
The Inspiration Board Tool is SO user friendly! The boards people are making are flawless and beautiful.
I would love to be involved! Although my wedding took place on 5/2/09, I used so many vendors from your site to plan my day and am now planning the rehearsal dinner for my step son and his fiancee, both of whom were a part of Joe and my wedding.
That is so much fun. Just spent 30 minutes without even realizing it. I will be back for more, more, more! THANK YOU!
is there a help section... I'm not quite sure how to add my own favorites. thanks!
Pick me! My wedding is in t-3 weeks- so if I wait until it comes out my wedding ship will have sailed!
Yep, here is the link to the help section and a post about the favorites.

Yeah, the Inspiration Board tool doesn't seem to be working with Internet Explorer. Boo! (Probably better since I'm at work-- and should actually be working...)
Awesome! This is so exciting!
I'm so excited by this!
I'm trying to link to my blog, but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there a way for the style circle to automatically update my Style Circle blog whenever I update my own blog? My user name is modernbridewithabudget.
Thanks!
Is registration closed already for Style Circle? I got "We're sorry, registration is by invitation only."
It looks like there are a couple of space left but it might be a lost in translation thing...if you aren't able to log in, we are probably at testing capacity. We are going to have a grand unveiling soon though!
Hi Abby,
It's telling me that "registration is by invitation only" but it can't be at capacity b/c I have seen additional people being added in the right hand side window of users just joining. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
I am getting the same error message as Rosann - must have been slow on this! :( Will look forward to the grand opening.
I, too, am getting the same error message. Has it reached the 500 person limit?
Looks like we've reached our limit! For some reason, it is saying 498 members but I am pretty sure we are over capacity. Don't worry though...the grand opening will be really soon!
oh alas, I am sad that the 500 limit has been reached! Can't wait for the real thing!
love,love love it!!!!!! can't wait for the grand opening so I can sign up!
So sad that the 500 has been reached --> can't wait to sign up!
I'm so sad that I missed the chance to sign up-please open it up soon! :(
bummer...Site looks good from what I can view.
