Your...Just reading back through your entries here. Your woodpecker photo is gorgeous and I love your dog's 'resigned' expression. :)<br /><br />Re Zenfolio: I had an account about 18 months ago and liked the way my photos looked on their site but found their pricing + margins structure a little tortuous for my non-maths brain. Then I ordered some sample prints to see what they'd be sending out. They were *dreadful*. As an example, a bright red tulip came out as a bleuch, pallid orange. I cancelled my a/c as soon as I could and moved to Red Bubble where pricing is dead simple in comparison and I know from ordering stuff myself that reproduction and quality are great. Hope this helps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-30089633624693075882011-06-22T20:37:21.433-04:002011-06-22T20:37:21.433-04:00birds are hard to get - nice job!

Anyway..) I am debating whether to switch back and give Zenfolio another try.<br /><br />Currently I use Smugmug and have for a little while. It seems to work okay, but I think the layout of the galleries and how to purchase photos is a little too confusing for my taste. I am not 100% happy with it. <br /><br />If you switch to Zenfolio let me know what you think of it and its customization. I may follow your lead :)Jen at Cabin Feverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619554503287689988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-31127852503329155902011-06-14T10:09:55.191-04:002011-06-14T10:09:55.191-04:00Ah Kate .... you must know that this post steals m...Ah Kate .... you must know that this post steals my heart.
