Hi Cadell - No I do not. Customtwit.com looks like a great place to use though!

Do you, by any remote chance, design twitter BG’s?

Karen - the same thing has happened to me - I went in back in early march and set up a twitter account - ( we had the floods and sandbagging stuff up here in the Fargo Moorhead Area - Red River Valley and twitter was the BEST way for us all to be kept up to date!!) Then low and behold - in April I started a Direct sales business as a Consultant with Heritage Makers - Sooo I began to explore the possibilities of using Twitter and Facebook to announce my business both to the “world” and to my family and friends - I too came home on or about July 6th - and discovered that my account has been suspended - filled out the trouble tickets - and have Not heard a Darn thing - even went as far as contacting the 3 guys that created Twitter - Still a,most 3 months later nothing has been corrected or unsuspended - in the mean time I had to go and create an entire new account - tied in with my business - The thing is - I had darn near 3000 following me - and vice versa. and now I have none _ NOT EVEN MY FAMILY AND Friends! I have repeatedly sent what ever communication I can to Twitter and they still todate have not unsuspended my account associated with my main and personal email account - I to am very upset and even angry! all that work and time for nothing! -

Thanks Awnya and Shawn! Well I am back now, but a little cautious of 3rd party apps on Twitter. Even though they may be OK if Twitter judges you if you use them I am not so sure I want to any more. I’d feel better if they had a little more of an explanation but this will have to do for now: http://status.twitter.com/post/136164828/restoring-accidentally-suspended-accounts
Thanks for your support!

That’s just bad .. really bad. I’ve never ever seen any of your post out of line. I know you put a lot of time and effort into building your business and your twitter account. Kinda makes me question the wisdom of investing too much time into twitter. I’ve never seen an organization such as twitter with such subjective wording such as: “updates consist mainly of links and not personal updates” I mean .. is there a percentage? Define “mainly” By design twitter encourages linking with it’s acceptance of html in tweets. Sorry for the headache .. I’m sure you’ll be reinstated soon.

Oh My Goodness!! That is aweful! I never have thought of you as a spammer on Twitter…actually I rather enjoy your posts!
I’m sure they will find you not guilty and restore you really soon!
Big hugs!
