Thirteen Reasons to NEVER start a photoblog…

1. You will start with something like typepad, or some other given site that offers their services, and then you will become disatisfied with how they control you..

2. Then you will buy movable type

3. Then you will realize you have no idea how to make a photoblog out of movable type..

4. Then you will pay blog moxie hundreds of dollars to make you blog templates along with the photoblog because they have a special on

5. Then your site will get hacked, and blog moxie offers to help you for THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS AN HOUR..

6. So you set out to look for FREE blogging software that has photoblog templates

7. you don’t find any

8. So you try gallery software…

9. many, many, many galleries you try

10. you upload ALL your photos so many times you run out of space on your server

11. you have to change webhosts

12. you finally find simple viewer, but want it IN YOUR BLOG, your nice free blog

13. you have a nervous breakdown installing wordpress plugins, and none of them work… you hear God laughing and you find some kid that has one line of code to add your simple viewer to your blog…. BUT… by this point.. it wasn’t worth it
