For those who pops by my blog before, you'll noticed that I am giving the blog a new look. I just wanted to freshen things up a little - frankly I have gotten bored of the previous blog template & set-up (it was dark and grey - kind of gloomy). Also I have recently subscribed to SmugMug, so this is also an effort to create a seamless surfing experience into my SmugMug website.
The website is not done yet (still quite scratchy & needing a lot of work... I guess I know what I will be doing this weekend), hopefully my interest in building the site doesn't diminish too quickly. Yes, it is a lot of work. I have already been working on the website for about 2 weeks now & it still look very scratchy. The end game that I am trying to achieve is to continue to have my blog located here while expanding on my website in SmugMug.
At the moment, I feel that Blogger has a much better blog interface compared to SmugMug. It's template for blogging is a lot better than those offered by SmugMug. Things are also a lot less complicated in Blogger (kudos to the guys who build this blog site) compared to SmugMug. This is an area where SmugMug is lacklustre in - honestly I am not sure why they haven't done anything about it. I will probably put a write-up of my SmugMug experience soon. At this stage, I would say that anyone wanting to use SmugMug should be prepared for a rather steep learning curve. I had some experience with html during my schooldays but those little knowledge seem totally insufficient to get my website going. Most of my time was spent going to Dgrin forum to source for solutions. Fair to say that so far my experience has been rather average. But, I will withhold judgement for now and give it a little more time.
I just made a trip to New York City, so there will be photos coming up shortly.
