re: What's in a name?

I knew that this is little bit controversial theme, but I didn’t expect so much hard feelings. My fault is that I didn’t have time to read the editorial before it went live, I just checked the formatting – my bad.

I would like to answer to all your questions:

1. Editorial is written by the Editor – Sharon and do not necessarily reflect the views of CakesDecor.

2. We are not going to change anything on CakesDecor – no badges or labeling – CakesDecor value and respects all members who are creating cakes – no matter if they use real cakes or dummy cakes. We believe that cake decorating is more ART than food industry.

3. I’m little bit sad that you accuse CakesDecor of deleting or blocking comments, because we have NEVER block or delete anyone’s comment on CakesDecor or CakesDecor facebook. That’s why I took the time to reply you instead of deleting your blog entry. If you’ tell me where exactly did you add the comment(url link of the Facebook post) I can try to investigate why it’s not showing.

4. We are sorry for removing the watermarks, we deleted the photos already.

5. And the last one … I would like to react on your sentence “You earn money from our beautiful cakes being posted onto this fantastic monetized site.”

We (CakesDecor owners – me and Martin) spent almost 95% of the money we earned from CakesDecor back to CakesDecor(all costs that are necessary to run the site and promote it) and to give away to you, CakesDecor members(awards, challenges, give aways …). We can’t even afford to work on CakesDecor full time, because it would not pay our bills … we work on it every day in our free time – early mornings and nights.

PS: So many negative comments and no-one noticed that we added discussion into the gazette :(
