Good news for Subscribers

DateTuesday, June 16, 2009 at 11:18 AM | CommentPost a Comment |

A bit of good news for those of you who subscribe to Karmalized via RSS or email. Last week before the 'big change' I mentioned you may have to update your settings because I wasn't sure if the old URLs would redirect to the new site. Well, thanks to the magic of a tool called Feedburner, the old URLs still work! You probably figured this out because you are still getting updates / emails whenever there is a new post, but figured it was worth mentioning anyway. (If for some reason you stopped receiving updates, click the RSS icon in the sidebar to make sure you're using the right URL).

For those of you who aren't subscribed to receive automatic updates, they're pretty handy. You can sign up to receive an email whenever there is an update to the site (that is the ONLY reason I'll ever use your email address, cross my heart). If you visit a lot of sites each week and wish there was an easier way to keep track of them, you might consider looking into RSS feeds. Here is a great 3 minute video that explains it much better than I ever could. That said, if you aren't interested in these tools and you'd just simply like to visit me every few days, that's cool too. I accept all kinds here. :)

Welcome to the NEW Karmalized!

DateSunday, June 7, 2009 at 11:57 AM | Comment4 Comments |

 

I am excited to announce Karmalized.com has undergone a major overhaul and is relaunching today FRESH and NEW!

Those of you that have been with me for awhile (this website has been around since 2002 if you can believe it), you know full well that I get restless and change my design once or twice a year. That said, this is a much bigger change than the ones I've made in the past. As my photography career has grown, it was clear I needed a website to keep up. With that in mind, I've left Wordpress, the platform that has been 'powering' my blog, to go with a company called Squarespace. You can learn more about Squarespace over here. In a nutshell, I'm able to have a more robust website (a blog, portfolio, extensive navigation, etc.) while maintaining the flexibility to design and update it myself. It's actually much EASIER to design and update, but that's a whole other blog post.

Now that the website has launched you might see a few new pages, most notably the addition of a proper Portfolio. It was tough to pick those few photographs to showcase, I have so many more I want to share. I guess I'll have to keep shooting and updating that section to keep it fresh! I've also added a Happy Clients section. I've been fortunate to work with some amazing clients and I'm thrilled they enjoyed my photographs.

Last but not least, with such a major update of importing the old content into the new website there are bound to be some old posts that look a little strange or have broken links. I've done my best to go thru the 2009 posts, but the rest will take me some time. Feel free to leave a comment if you see something really out of whack.

Thanks, as always, for your support. I hope you like the new site! :)
