It is great, I have learnt so much, and I have discovered so many things I didn't know, and artist I hadn't come across. Thank you :) <br /><br />In the time that you have been writing, things on the internet have changed a lot, now so much of the activity is moved to the newer social medias Before there where more people making blogs, and I am guessing more comment activity and conversations going on. On the other hand, maybe more people are getting tired of the ads in social medias, and noise of those platforms, as well as that they mainly are for short form things.<br /><br />I wonder, what do you think of blogging today?Skogmørkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05450561998138330305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-48926555665864112582017-07-22T03:21:59.194-04:002017-07-22T03:21:59.194-04:00Have you thought about placing an Amazon.com spons...Have you thought about placing an Amazon.com sponsored link in a more prominent position in your sidebar?<br /><br />Some sites have a generic Amazon.com link which works the same way but is not associated with a specific product. The following is an example:<br /><br />http://www.twotruefreaks.com/main.php<br /><br /><br />In any case, congratulations on Gurney Journey's excellence so far, and best wishes for even greater future successes!Mei-Yi Chunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05537801066768162187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-22662231979144391082017-07-22T03:17:20.679-04:002017-07-22T03:17:20.679-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Mei-Yi Chunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05537801066768162187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-62555790166168281622017-07-20T04:55:13.085-04:002017-07-20T04:55:13.085-04:00Thanks for all the GREAT posts and information and...Thanks for all the GREAT posts and information and artwork shared with us.

You've inspired me in many ways - I've built a pochade box along your suggestions, I've been educated on different techniques and impressive artists, and I've been encouraged through your endeavours to paint my world and post my results on my blog.

You have a lot to be proud of.<br /><br />You didn't list it as one of your 7 goals, but there is an 8th factor which I think has been more important to your success than any of the others on your list: your blog consistently has a cheerful, optimistic, constructive tone that welcomes and warms your readers. You have a generosity of spirit that comes through and makes learning your content that much easier. <br /><br />You've made a great contribution to the art world over ten years, and I'm looking forward to the next ten.David Apatoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11293486149879229016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-70990347190113436022017-07-17T11:47:41.649-04:002017-07-17T11:47:41.649-04:00Thank you for producing such a wonderful resource,...Thank you for producing such a wonderful resource, James.
