Dhrishti-remedy for the site?

A few weeks ago, I posted a topic on Dhrishti, in this Culture category. I'm sure you remember it. If you do, then you will also remember, that almost all of you who posted comments on it, tend to believe in the belief, and the different remedial measures that one undertakes to get rid of the evil eye/dhrishti.
I've been thinking about this site, which showcases all of our kolams and rangolis, and the different art and fabric-work creations too. Don't you think the site can become a victim of the "Dhrishti" too?
Do you think we should close down the ikolam site for a day - called a Dhrishti day. 
Do you have second of your time to type "yes" or "no" (to close down site for a day)?

So, you two ladies would be back in Chennai for Navrathri? I just got 2 golu invites. You ladies must be busy with attending many many golu invites? Both in Bangalore as well as in Chennai?

So, that's one vote for yes, and one for no. We'll decide in maybe three days.

Ok, I'll take that as a "no" vote. Subashiniji, your comments make me read them over and over again, where ever you comment! Did I tell you Mani too, is a big fan of your writings?

I too go with Jaya and Rajamma - whenever my net does not connect or there is a weekend when the whole family is around and I cant visit the site I feel terribly lost - so that says it all....

U know what, Lataji initially I never used to get a chance to sit on the Laptop on the weekends...... would totally miss IKOLAM after joining you all..... But now, Ramesh is also a fan of IKOLAM & I am happily allowed to Login to Ikolam everyday, without fail....... So may be earlier I would have said Saturday or Sunday would hv been fine for the Shut down..... But as of now, its a big NO NO....

I think you should take as many days off as you need! Besides, you already do so much for us and this website, like making new things for us to do, and (in my opinion) it's not fair to ask you to not take a break. It's almost like you're online 24/7! i just think you should inform us first, so we know when and when not to post our kolams and rangolies.
