On This Date

On this date, January 12, 2014 It used to be that Google Photos prepared “reminiscences”, putting together a little album of images uploaded on a day years prior. Those albums could be shared. The sharing does not seem to work any more, hence this post. It was a cold, wintry, but bright day at McDaniel…… Continue reading On This Date

Once Upon a Time

A long, long, time ago there was a tool for preparing blog posts called “Windows Live Writer”. It had some fabulous features. You could do something like this: Demo-1 VIEW SLIDE SHOW DOWNLOAD ALL Or this: Demo-1 VIEW SLIDE SHOW DOWNLOAD ALL Alas, those days are long forgotten. No longer can these things be done.…… Continue reading Once Upon a Time

An Era Ends

Here, at the end of 2018, we are “blessed” with a revolutionary change from WordPress. Along with WordPress 5 comes the new “block” editor. The fanfares have sounded for many months. The unveiling shows an astonishing lack of understanding of the needs of users. The many superlative adjectives of ease and speed are empty promises.…… Continue reading An Era Ends

Change Happens

It started here, in this out-of-the way, hard-to-get-to corner of the internet. A bit more than a year ago my curiosity led me to sign up for Blogging 101 at the WordPress Blogging University. You can see the badge and link in the sidebar at the right. That in turn led me to participate in…… Continue reading Change Happens

First Impression

The First Impression of a Photograph There is that saying that “you don’t get a second chance to make a first impression” and we are all aware of the importance of making a good first impression. In social encounters our future relationships are shaped by those first impressions. In our world, where everything and everybody…… Continue reading First Impression

Celebrating “Hover Fly”

Facebook reminded me that is was just two years ago when “Hover Fly”, my cafe art image of a little eponymous creature on a yellow flower, was an honored participant in an exhibit at the Rectory in Norcross, Georgia. Here some views from that cherished event. After the exhibition “Hover Fly” was on display at…… Continue reading Celebrating “Hover Fly”

Cafe Art and Photopainting

As far back as I can remember I have always been fond of dabbling, drawing, painting, and doodling. Photography has also been my hobby. When the technology became available to combine both, of course, I could not resist. What resulted from my early efforts I could hardly call art. It didn’t seem that any of…… Continue reading Cafe Art and Photopainting

Growing my Audience

Hardly a day goes by without at least one message in a spam folder that offers sure-fire ways of increasing my readership. Some want to sell me Twitter followers, others offer Facebook friends. It isn’t just those no-name fly-by-nights, but the biggies do it too. Witness Facebook pushing its own advertising. Why for just $5…… Continue reading Growing my Audience

The “Peach Blossom Artisan Market”. Oh, you have to visit the site I built: Peach Blossom Artists. More to come as…… Continue reading My past two months

A day for gotchas

There are days like this It started like any other day. I checked my emails, followed up on a couple, deleted advertising and then came across an email from Quora. Somebody was asking “Why should we use Windows Live Writer”. I had just been checking out some features in the new Open Live Writer so…… Continue reading A day for gotchas
