Welcome to the new and improved (well, different anyway) Ericj-art.com

ALROIGHTY then! Welcome, welcome, welcome. Don't mind the dust, we're still under construction here, but I'm pretty stoked so far. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is SO much easier than what I was doing before.
    1. why the change,
    2. what took so long to update,
    3. is this going to last?


    All good questions. The answers, as best I can provide them are as follows:


    1. The change is due to the fact that I just didn't have the time, or the energy to update the site the way it was. The blog itself was easy enough, although I must say I'd grown a little tired of the way it looked. So, faced with that, and my discovery of Myspace, I just started doing all my blogging and stuff over there. Not the best solution, but it was easy, and there's the whole community aspect as well. Anyway, this weekend my Myspace page was M.I.A. for about 24 hours, and I kind of realized the error in judgement that is relying on someone else's site to connect with fans and peers, so it then became a priority to get this redesign under way and find SOME way to make the whole process, blogging, galleries, etc., quick and easy to build and maintain. I think I've found it with RapidWeaver, at least I'm stoked so far.
    2. Oh, well, I guess I answered this one above. :)
    3. Is it going to continue, meaning, 'will I keep updating?'. Yeah, if this is as easy as I think it is it shouldn't be too hard to keep up with, even with my limited time. So, best I can say is I plan on it, yeah. :)

    Anyway, so welcome to the new digs, I hope you like it. I know I'm much happier with it so far, and I'm not done yet. Some of the third party add-ons for the app are really neat, and I'm excited to see what's possible. If you can, take a moment to leave a comment and let me know what you think of my shiny new toy. :D
