whoa, this is atypical

Well, I don’t really think i’m MEANT to be a part of a blogging community, i’m too soft hearted and when the slightest thing goes wrong, i run for the hills.. i guess i will just keep posting and people will keep not commenting, and life goes on. i entered a contest to win a blog template, and i won, but it’s not up because i like pretty froo froo templates… i also won an ebook about blogging, lol, how ironic.. perhaps i should read it! anyway, my photoblog is pretty, but i hear it’s slow loading.. i think all photoblogs are slow loading. it’s almost midnight, time to ping that my photo is up..

Well I’m having a grand old time over at my photoblog… It really is rather an artistic OUTLET.. Somehow I am expressing a part of myself that just didn’t have the where with all to get out before this. I was missing something, and now I think I’ve found it. Such a small thing to have asked, but it eluded me for so long.. I just wanted somebody to know I existed…

TADA!!! isn’t it beautiful? and there’s no tagging involved, which is known to drive all Elaines nuts
But I will share the love with my friends, that are indeed friends, some for years, some for weeks, but friends for sure…
1. Elaine over at Commotion from the Ocean of life – haha back at ya babe!! you’re my best commenting angel friend baby, love ya!
2. Megan at Silent Messenger, which is offline at the moment coz she keeps getting attacked by evil hackers… but we have been online friends since 2001, and it’s about time she got an award gosh darn it!
3. Sherri over at pearweed even though you can’t display your award coz you have a photoblog, I consider you a fast friend.. no no, not fast, hehe that sounds bad.
Ok, I know I didn’t have to give anybody the award, and this isn’t tagging, it’s just honoring some friends.. Love you Elaine!

There’s always fun to be had over at Elaine’s blog… turns out we are both honest, but i kicked her butt in a couple of areas, don’t know WHY… sorry Elaine lol it was fun tho
Your result for The Best Thing About You Test…

Honesty is the human quality of communicating and acting truthfully. This includes listening, and any action in the human repertoire — as well as speaking. And you? You cannot tell a lie. Both loved ones and strangers should trust you, because you won’t (1) lie, (2) lie via omission, or (3) sit there and let lies be told. (Can you even let a sleeping dog lie?) All 7 virtues are a part of you, but your honesty runs deepest.
Your biggest risk is hurting the feelings of your most sensitive friends. However, most appreciate you for your candor.
Honest famous person: George Washington, if you believe the propaganda.
Your raw relative scores follow. 0% is low, and 100% is perfect, nearly impossible. Note that I pitted the virtues against each other, so in some way these are relative scores. It’s impossible to score high on all of them, and a low score on one is just relatively low compared to the other virtues.
YOUR VIRTUES
70% Compassion
67% Intelligence
63% Humility
78% Honesty
13% Discipline
43% Courage
25% Passion

Well I have been thinking of how I should have everything set up for days now, and I am really melting my brain.
I think, after MUCH thinking… that I will downgrade my website from 2 gig to 500 meg, and just have my photoblog seperate, i mean that’s what threatens to take up all the webspace anyway, so i think i will keep my blog online here, because after experimenting with the free wordpress, i just don’t think i will be as happy there as here.
this just in.. my webhost dude just informed me that i had a smaller package and he recently upgraded me for free.. so i might be stupid to give that up.. but my time to pay my yearly bill is coming up at the end of the month, so if it’s not going to be the same as last year, i will still downgrade..
i totally DIG the new photoblog tho, i owe it all to Sherri, who got me onto the idea of having a beautiful standard photoblog.. now i need a new camera!

is over here at my a different blog that i was trying out

Hi Elaine, actually I’m still busy rethinking all of this, my most recent idea is to get rid of my website all together and just have a blog and a photo blog, on OTHER people’s servers lol i’m sick of getting hacked and all the hassle that goes with keeping this site up… i’ll let you know what i think, as soon as I know what I think lol

Ok, i revamped the design so that it’s now a photoblog I’m creating, and people can leave comments on individual posts, even if i do have more than one, a couple of thumbnails in it… I’m just starting to upload pics but you can look at the birth of my photoblog here, it’s called shuttering. let me know what you think!
Ok, Sherri, whose opinion i value, has said she doesn’t like the wordpress photoblog for some very good reasons, so i guess i’ll populate the pixel post one and see what you guys think of that. I know there’s a wordpress plugin for getting a thumbnail from a pixelpost blog. I installed a black theme on it with no problems, and i think it looks not bad, wish it had a batch upload though…

I have decided to separate my gallery and my regular blog, that way template issues won’t get in the way, right now it’s so hard to find one template that works with both. if i take the gallery out of this blog, then i can use them purday skinny templates ![]()
Somebody recommended pixelpost, and I installed it and such, but didn’t like the templates, i had a plain white photo gallery before and got bored with it. So I figured I might as well stick to wordpress, and just use a blog template, instead of the boring photoblog templates… wordpress photoblog templates don’t have thumbnails, i hate dat.
So now I have thumbnails, but no comments on each individual photo. because I’m using lightbox. I imagine having no comments for each photo will make me nuts too, and it’s not a photoblog, it’s a gallery, so i can’t join all the photoblog rings… hmmm.. perhaps i should rethink this.
I have a moth phobia and an aversion to sewing that I think come from watching 'The Silence of the Lambs' at an impressionable age.
