The layout is solid and clean, and navigation is very user friendly! Being easy to update is a nice big cherry on top!<br /><br />Also, I'd like to comment on your book Imaginative Realism: after spending months looking for it and buying what I was told was one of only two copies the bookstore chain had in the entire country (gotta love living in Brazil), I have to say it was worth the effort! I'm not a painter by any stretch of the imagination, having fully moved to digital art a couple years ago, yet I found that most of the information contained in that book was perfectly applicable to my silly cel-shaded scribbles!<br /><br />Plus now I finally have a book I can glue my "this Book is from the Collection of" sticker I got four years ago! I didn't want to put it on my two Dinotopia books (A Land Apart From Time and The World Beneath), since those <i>never</i> leave my house, but I'll be carrying Imaginative Realism around at least a few times. Gotta show it off a bit! :D<br /><br />(Now to save up to get Journey to Chandara... this time I'll probably just order it online.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-5525363247574743232011-09-22T12:29:59.812-04:002011-09-22T12:29:59.812-04:00OK, ONE last thing I don’t know HTML coding.

With his user-friendly website system, if you can blog, you can update your site</i><br />to any other artists that might be dealing with this - that's the advantage of a 'content management system' (cms) like wordpress (there are lots of other ones - drupal, joomla (which i don't like so much) but WP is best for people who aren't familiar with coding.. once its set up (and most hosting companies have an automatic install) updating and changing pages is not much different than composing a rich text email.My Pen Namehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10163003696435139513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-23022754784677237052011-09-22T12:24:28.928-04:002011-09-22T12:24:28.928-04:00sorry one last thing.. there are plugins that you ...sorry one last thing.. there are plugins that you can put into wordpress that allow you to post on your site and into facebook, blogger, ect, and tap into other social networks.
