I’m writing today about a few new things on my blog for those who might be reading my articles only through their feed readers.

The first thing is that now I have a logo. Have a look at the guy on top left corner. Not a big thing, I know, but a felt such a strong desire for it. The way I got it was that one day it came to my mind that I still had a few credits on www.stockxpert.com which is a stock photo and graphics site. I entered “camera drawing” into the search box and selected a few of the results. Not being able to decide on which one to choose I started a thread on the forum of Freelanceswitch.com- and incredible blog with tips, tools and lots of other things for freelancers: writers, designers, photographers or programmers – asking for advice. Members of the forum helped me and I implemented their suggestion.

The second thing is related to my About page. I put a photo of myself on it. It is a common wisdom amongst bloggers that it helps being personal on your blog if you are not hiding yourself completely behind your writing. And I also put there a profile widget – provided by bighugelabs.com – of my Flickr photos.

A somewhat technical thing is that I installed a Wordpress plugin called Feedburner Feedsmith. The plugin redirects all requests for RSS feeds of my blog entries and comments to feedburner.com enabling me to keep a track of the number of my dearest subscribers (feed readers). (Did you know, by the way, that Google has acquired FeedBurner?) Believe me it is really heart warming to see a number of subscribers above 300. Keep me happy and subscribe.

And finally I added a contact form to my blog helping my readers sending me notes. I really enjoy receiving suggestions, comments from anyone interested in photography.
