We have our first 100 beautiful babies! Aishah Brooke was the 100th baby to be successfully added to the web site.
I'd like to thank all of the parents and relatives who have added to this site to make it so beautiful. My apologies to those who tried to submit their babies, but ran into difficulties when attempting to upload photos. Feel Free to send me the photo, and your baby will still have his/her page set up.
For now, no more new submissions will be taken. I plan to revamp this site to allow more baby submissions, but this will take some time, and I have no projected completion date.
Until then, continue to marvel at one of the most beautiful pages on the internet.

We're back! I (finally) fixed the upload form to be more secure. It's still not perfect, but it's a step in the right direction. Hopefully it will keep the spammers out long enough to fill up the home page the rest of the way! So, if you haven't done so yet, or if you have another baby not yet shown on our site, add your baby now!
Just a note: when uploading your baby's picture, please wait for the script to finish processing. This will save me a lot of time processing the picture manually. All you have to do is wait for the page to stop loading, and your baby's picture will be up on the site. Thanks!

You've heard the phrase. One bad apple spoils the bunch. Well, there we more like a few dozen bad apples. Apparently, some spam bots decided to hijack the baby submission form, so I've temporarily disabled it until I get a chance to make the form more secure. Until then, sorry, no new babies will be added to this site.

One more baby, and the home page will be half full! Come on people, it's free, and your baby is so cute that (s)he deserves to be on this site.
My wife told me just now that she could probably fill up the second half in one week. I challenged her to do so. Let's see how fast we can fill the rest of the squares.
If you haven't put your baby on the site, now's the time to do so. It only takes a few minutes, and you can show your baby's page to all of your family, friends, and neighbors.

It's not a huge update, but I did add a little character countdown on the add your baby page, making it easier to know exactly how much more content you can write for your baby's page. No more guessing or wondering :)
I have truly enjoyed taking this project on. Maybe it hasn't exploded like I originally thought it would have, but seeing the love that even a few parents have for their children has been more than worth all of the time I put into putting this site together. Thank you to all have added their beautiful babies to this website. God bless you all.

I'm sorry to those who have been trying to add their babies recently but have been unable to do so. I fixed the problem, so you should be able to add them now, so please do :)

There were some errors in the automated process. Thanks to those who pointed them out. It's all fixed now, and even easier to add your baby to the site.

It's really exciting to see all of these new babies being added. Just imagine what it will look like once the home page is full: a hundred precious little baby faces looking back at you. I can't wait.

Another baby was added!
After adding a couple of babies manually, I realized that adding pages and editing pictures myself for each baby would take too much of my time. So, I took a day and set it up to auto update. This means that as soon as you submit your baby, he/she will appear on the site. No more waiting!
If you run into any errors during the process of adding your baby, let me know. I've tested the whole thing, but I may have missed something somewhere.
I'm very excited that this site is getting new babies added. If you haven't added yours yet, what are you waiting for?

Yea! A proud mother became the first person (other than us) to add her beautiful baby to our our web site. And Joshua is a cute little baby!
I made a small banner to link to this site if you don't want to use the big banner below. To use the small banner, use the following code:
<a href="http://www.100mostbeautifulbabies.com/"><img src="http://www.100mostbeautifulbabies.com/images/banner-small.gif" border="0" alt="Click here to see the 100 most beautiful babies!"></a>
It, too, will automatically update with the number of spaces left whenever new babies are added. Help us fill this page up with beautiful babies!

We were clearly not cut out to be marketing or advertising people. Putting little effort into advertising our site has resulted in, as expected, little response. We decided, then, to just make this site completely free for now. Sign up your beautiful babies, and take advantage of this free service while it lasts!

No sign-ups yet. We're starting to think that $100 to have your baby on our site for 1 month is a bit overpriced. So, we've changed it to $100 for 1 year! Everything else is the same, but now your baby can listed as one of the 100 most beautiful babies for an entire year. So sign your beautiful baby up and tell your friends!

We've not yet gotten any sign-ups, but we're still hopeful! We're starting to get some traffic to our site, and we're still working on making the site look exactly how we want it. I made a small banner to promote our site as well. Copy and paste the following code if you'd like to show the banner on your web site:
<a href="http://www.100mostbeautifulbabies.com/"><img src="http://www.100mostbeautifulbabies.com/images/banner.gif" border="0" alt="Click here to see the 100 most beautiful babies!"></a>
In the next few days we're going to email everybody that we know about the site. Feel free to do the same if you know somebody with a beautiful baby!

In an effort to create one of the most beautiful pages on the internet, and to raise money for our family's educational expenses, and some Christian organizations we wish to support, we have started this site. If you'd like to learn more about us, check out our personal web site, chrisandabby.com.
We bought the first square and donated $50 to Focus on the Family because we're proud of our baby. We hope you'll check back often to see all the beautiful babies and how much has been given to Christian organizations. And, of course, we welcome you to add your baby!
