ProPhoto Blogs…

Wednesday, February 17, 2010 4:00 PM Posted in Business, Life, Photography, Technology

I’ve been using ProPhoto for a little over a year now. Once upon a time I worked hard, laboring over HTML code on a Blogger hosted site. After a couple years, I moved over to wordsarenotenough.com and installed WordPress. WordPress took very little time to figure out, but in order to customize my themes, I was forced to learn some CSS (Cascading Style Sheets- it’s all very technical.) I don’t like coding things, and I lost interest in keeping up with HTML and CSS. So a year ago I decided that getting a ProPhoto blog was the way to go. Using ProPhoto is simple. It comes with a bunch of different themes to work from, and each of them is easily customizable to your own tastes.

Now, unlike Blogger or WordPress.com, I had to pay for things. It cost money to get wordsarenotenough.com, and it cost money to host my blog on it. (I started with GoDaddy.com, but now I use BlueHost.com as my domain host.) I pay about $80 a year to run this site, and I use it for more than just photography. Words Are Not Enough is about life- travel, photography, friends, mission- lots of things. Anyway, I’m writing this to tell you that you can get a ProPhoto blog too. Your blog doesn’t have to be about photography to use it, but if you do have a photoblog, ProPhoto is the best I’ve seen.

So here’s the deal. Check out this video about ProPhoto Blogs. If you like it, get it. It’s got wicked awesome customization tools that are simple to use- you can make a professional blog without paying an arm and a leg.

And if you sign up, use this promo code: JOEKEN654. It’ll save you a little cash, and it’ll give me a little, too.

I realize I haven’t had a comment since last year. Literally, the last comment was at the end of December 2009. Consider this an open thread. Leave a comment if you’re a visitor, whether I know you or not.

Is anybody is still reading?

[SNOWPOCALYPSE! NOW!]

A WHOLE COUPLE MILLIMETERS! SHUT DOWN THE WHOLE TOWN! Or… complete overreactions followed by total letdown. At least my oak tree will survive.

[Project 365 Week 5]

Friday, February 12, 2010 9:00 AM Posted in Architecture, Life, Mobile Alabama, Nature, New Orleans, People, Photography, Sports

Week 5 of Project 365 wasn’t that much more eventful than the last 4 weeks… unless, of course, you count the SAINTS WINNING THE SUPER BOWL! Which I do.

Here’s the rundown: Friday I took a shot of my backyard at night. Saturday I went to my friend Justin’s birthday party. Sunday, THE SAINTS WON! THE SAINTS WON! Monday it sunk in. Tuesday I looked up where all those “Indianapolis Colts Super Bowl Champions” t-shirts would end up (Africa and Haiti). Wednesday I thanked God again for THE SAINTS WIN! And on Thursday, I took a before-picture of the back porch in preparation of SNOWMAGEDDON! SNOWPOCALYPSE!

My NFL Predictions Revisited…

Monday, February 8, 2010 3:56 PM Posted in Life, New Orleans, Sports

The first day of the NFL season I posted my playoffs predictions. Boldly, I had the Saints and Chargers duking it out in Miami. I thought it would be an entertaining game, especially with the Brees-San Diego story. I knew better, because San Diego’s head coach is Norv Turner, and I have a strong theory about him. You see, no Norv Turner- or Wade Phillips- head coached team will ever make it to the Super Bowl. Anyway, the Chargers got whipped by the Fighting Rexes and the Colts made it to the Big Game (which if you didn’t know, then how did you get on the Internet?).

So I got a lot wrong. I only got half the NFC teams right, and 4 of 6 AFC teams right. The seeding is all messed up. But hey, who really expected the Cowboys to make the playoffs? Who thought the Titans and Steelers would tank half their seasons? (On a side note, have you noticed that the last two Steelers teams to win the Super Bowl ended up missing the playoffs the following year? They’re the exception to the rule, lately… with both the Cardinals and Seahawks making the playoffs following a Super Bowl loss. DUN-DUN-DUN!)
