I believe a lot of the over-exposure is actually self-inflicted, lol. I did a lot of editing in Photoshop after and I thought it looked artsy, but I suppose its just too much! </p> <p>Your advice is super useful though; it's really cold and snowy here, and I'm not home during the light hours a lot of the time, so I have tons of lighting issues. Those lights you linked to are fantastic, and I think I might have to swing by Wal-Mart soon and build myself a make-shift studio! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-blog-hows-the-layout-and-formatting#post-510343 Sat, 14 Jan 2012 03:29:39 +0000 rachylou 510343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful banner. Your white dresser is great! </p> <p>The over-exposure of the photos could have to do with the all-whiteness of the room, I think. You might invest in some cheap clip on work lights, a bulb that puts out a warmer colored light, and aim them at the ceiling.</p> <p><a href="http://www.walmart.com/ip/Bayco-8.5-Clamp-Light/14003467?ci_sku=14003467&#038;ci_src=14110944&#038;sourceid=1500000000000003260370" rel="nofollow">http://www.walmart.com/ip/Bayc.....0003260370</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-blog-hows-the-layout-and-formatting#post-510283 Sat, 14 Jan 2012 02:42:34 +0000 Jyoti 510283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Mo! That's a great idea-- I think I'm going to do that for the headers!</p> <p>Yeah, I tried to do some editing on the photos in Photoshop, but it seems that people don't really like the effect too much, so maybe I'll just keep them closer to the original photo with less post-work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-blog-hows-the-layout-and-formatting#post-509664 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 17:20:52 +0000 Mo 509664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! Perhaps play with more than one font - like the sidebar "about me" area could be in a different font than that day's blog post text, etc? And the pics look a bit too light or washed out on my monitor . . . unless that was done on purpose to affect, in which case, ignore me!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-blog-hows-the-layout-and-formatting#post-509637 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 16:53:18 +0000 Jyoti 509637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks citygirl! That's really helpful for looking at maybe how I should weight my content. I do plan on having a variety of posts that will be different lengths-- hopefully most if not all will have at least some photos or drawings and many will be much shorter. This one's pretty text heavy because of the content.</p> <p>I will also play with the font size, maybe make it dynamic so people can change it themselves based on their preference? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-blog-hows-the-layout-and-formatting#post-509508 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 15:13:42 +0000 citygirldc 509508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For me, I like to look at style photos more than read long posts. Frankly, I don't have time to read but I guess some people do. I do like the layout and you can make your fonts size a bit larger. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-blog-hows-the-layout-and-formatting#post-509496 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 15:07:38 +0000 Jyoti 509496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Nicole! Your feedback about the photos is very useful! I'm going to have to mess around with a few different sizes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-blog-hows-the-layout-and-formatting#post-509331 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 06:11:34 +0000 Travelgal Nicole 509331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really like the banner along the top. The photos might be a touch too large but that's just my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-blog-hows-the-layout-and-formatting#post-509325 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 05:47:07 +0000 Jyoti 509325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey everyone! It's been a while since I've been around, but I'm slowly trying to make somewhat of a return to the internets after a med school beat down.</p> <p>I'm going to actually (really truly) launch a style blog in the near future, but I wanted to test the layout and formatting and stuff first, and I thought you guys would be awesome as I know everyone is very thoughtful and intelligent in their feedback here.</p> <p>So please let me know what you think about:</p> <p>- readability<br /> - photos (size, quality, etc.)<br /> - layout<br /> - length and wordiness of post<br /> - and any other comments or criticism you would like to let me know about!</p> <p>Just a note, I put up a test post that's part of a closet organization series I've written up in advance. It's the third post in the series, but one that has a lot of different content contained in it, so it was good for testing. Apologies if it doesn't make too much sense in isolation!</p> <p>Thanks so much in advance!</p> <p><a href="http://vitj.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">http://vitj.blogspot.com</a> </p>
