I am a new member and author and was told that you can acquire a yellow “LibraryThing Author” badge on your profile/works. Does anyone know how to do this? Thank you so much for your help.

Go to the bottom of your author page. On laptop it might be in a side column. Click on “Is this you?”

Hi everyone,
I’m Willie, an independent creator and publisher based in the Midwest. I run Hope Haven Publishing LLC, where I specialize in designing visual journals, planners, and themed coloring books that promote reflection, creativity, and personal growth. However, I posted ten books my logo, and a picture of myself on the home page. I received a message from Gilroy informing me of the guidelines I may have unintentionally violated. I would like to know if I can transfer the post, or if I will have to delete the post and repost in the appropriate Group or Talk. Please advise.
Best regards,
Willie Mack

BTW, you should delete the website link in your message.

>4 WMack72: When you say you posted to "the home page" I assume you mean to YOUR personal profile home page.

I suggest that you reach out to the LT team ... specifically Abigail at
abigailadams@librarything.com

She should be able to correctly advise you as to what is appropriate / allowed.
