\Using categories to divide your photographs by type is a great way to make it easier for visitors to navigate your site, especially as your portfolio of images continues to grow. For example, as you categorize photos as “Travel” or “Black and White,” you can then add those category pages to your site’s navigation bar. If you’re using your photo blog to generate business as a photographer, this means that someone who’s looking for some black and white images can easily take a look at your gallery of black and white photos. This guide explains how to add categories to your post, and you can follow these steps to add those category pages to your site’s menu.

When displaying a series of photos, you’ll see that there are a handful of options for inserting them into your post: slideshow, gallery, and individual images. If you’re adding a large amount of photos to a single post, you may want to consider using the gallery option. Too many photos on the front page can cause a slow load time for visitors. By loading your posts as thumbnails first, visitors get the full effect of the breadth and variety of your photographs at a single glance. If you’re looking for feedback, visitors can comment directly on your photo by clicking on the “Permalink” button in the gallery carousel.

7/6 notes from Joanna



Categories-re each post Larger scope than tags (sometimes can appear under both)

Ex: If I say in my blog.for example “ I baked cookies for Surtex”.

Then Category is Surtex cookies

Tag would be: cookies



Tags show up in google People will be directed to the post that mentions cookies.

Tag is Empire State Bldg. Anyone googling that in will be directed to the post on our blog that mentions Empire State Bldg.

Categories –Only add something as a category if I am writing about it in my post.



Joanna suggests that your blog be:

One part entertainment ex: what I ate for breakfast-photos and how I made

One part inspirational – how I made food look like Disney characters

One part educational – ex nutrition value of foods

Great home décor blogs lots of florals

Googler Home Décor water color florals 2012 – images will take you to great blogs

Watercolor looks are making a splash on fashion, eye make-up trends, hand-painted wedding stationery, bedding and all manner of home textiles. This fluidly romantic painting style is perfect on plates as well. The unstructured, yet naturalistic, flowers and leaves on this "Watercolor Petals" salad plate by Shelley Hesse for Anthropologie are charming with na ïf elegance. Like a painter working from a palette, I'd mix the colors in these quasi-transparent brushstrokes with other solid color or banded dishes to make my own table setting work of art.

interesting workshop at MOMA

Blocks Tell a Story: Creating Narratives in Space and Time

Led by toy designer and educator Karen Hewitt of Burlington, Vermont–based Learning Materials Workshop, these two workshops and drop-in activities invite visitors to channel their inner sense of creative play to design their own stories and reinvent their urban landscapes with building blocks.

Workshops begin with a brief visual tour of the history of building blocks as a learning tool from the 1850s to the present—from Friedrich Froebel to computer Smart Blocks. Participants then create narratives using only blocks. Without the aid of figurative miniature objects, the blocks must be used creatively to symbolize objects, people, and animals. Participants’ narratives will be documented and shared.

Can Food Be Art?

Artist Nancy Hwang has been engaged in making communication-based participatory art projects, and she proposes that food—cooking with strangers and sharing their recipes—can be a good way to get to know one another on an intimate level. Following a brief introduction to previous works by Hwang, audience members are invited to share their childhood food memories to open up a conversation. This participatory talk is open-ended, much like Nancy’s own performance work.

Nancy Hwang has been producing audience-participatory projects in galleries, museums and public spaces over the last fifteen years in North America, Europe and Asia. She holds a Master of Fine Arts in Sculpture from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Maryland.

Midori Yamamura, Ph.D., is Visiting Assistant Professor in the History of Art and Design at Pratt Institute and a Lecturer at the Museum of Modern Art. She is the author of Yayoi Kusama: Mirrored Years (2009) and a contributor to the Whitney Museum exhibition catalog, Yoyoi Kusama (2012).

ABOUT HEADERS

You need to differentiate and express your blog with an original and eye-catching header graphic. It needs to be unique to grab the attention and give a good first impression to your visitors. Good blog header graphic creates an appropriate atmosphere and sets the tone of your blog.

You need to define the purpose of your blog and decide exactly what you want your blog header image to communicate about your blog and about yourself to your visitors.
