i helped evil upstairs neighbour lady in with her boxes yesterday. hey, she may be evil, but she’ll be gone in two weeks. i can afford to be nice. now.
absolutely nothing is going on in my life that’s worthy of conversation. i can’t even get myself worked up about anything to go on a good rant. well, there is that whole gay marriage thing in san francisco, but i’m canadian, so you probably know where i stand on that issue already.
all i really want to talk about is food, points and scales; but, that gets boring to everyone else after two and a half seconds, so i’m trying not to be that person. of course, because it’s all i think about, i can’t seem to think of anything else to talk about. oh the irony!
julie launched her beautiful redesign yesterday with a neat “send this photo as a postcard” link under her photos now. i’ve thought about adding postcards here for a while (after falling in love with the now-defunct jezebel.com), but i couldn’t ever figure out what to make the postcards out of. i’m not very artsy, you know, so i just kind of let the whole thing go. now, julie’s resurrected the idea in my little pea brain. i could use my photos! of course, then there’s the whole copy-cat aspect. although plagiarism is the highest form of compliment, right?
i definitely think you should offer to send your photos as postcards. not only does it promote your photography and your site, but it also offers people who fear being added to a mailing list the chance to send a nice postcard without worry.
i loved jezebel’s cards, and sent them often. i was devastated when the site was shut down. i’ve been sending heather’s cards from hchamp.com, which is basically where i “borrowed” the idea from. i plan to put up my favourite photos on my site and offer to send those as well.
hope you have a good weekend. get outside and take some pictures for us please!
Speaking of “plagiarism as the highest form of compliment” … I love your opening/closing sidebar options, and I used the idea on my site. (You can see at myperkyworld.com.) I hope you do take it as a compliment. I’ve learned tons from Scriptygoddess, but your adaptation took a new approach as far as I could tell.
I hope you don’t mind, because it does clean things up! :-D
