Post Of The Day (Bonus Edition)

Today's joint winners are Shadow with The Moon and Sniffles And Smiles with Honey, I Shrunk The Slipcover. The other top contenders were Deb with Swine Flu And Mexican Restaurants; Deborah Godin with The Declension Of Loon; Erin with Ponte Vecchio; Bateau De Banane with Bonfire Of The Vanities; Ocala Daily Photo with Rolling South On I-75; Breeze with Missing Link In The Weight Loss Chain; Arne with Odd Shots; Quiet Paths with Tactile and Marburg Daily Photo with Hirschberg No.1. Do pay them a visit and leave a comment if you have time.


And here's the bonus: I'm delighted to point all bloggers and anyone with a creative instinct to the website RedBubble - a virtual art gallery that offers free membership.

The site serves many purposes, including the opportunity for all writers, photographers and artists in any medium, to sell their work to a global audience - without worrying about packing or despatching items yourself.

You determine your own prices and you can easily link from your blog to your RedBubble site, as I have done on my blog's sidebar. I signed up for the site three days ago and had a long conversation on the phone yesterday with one of the site's co-founders. You can check out my RedBubble photography here, or by clicking the link on my sidebar.

Good luck, happy RedBubbling and feel free to pass on the good news - and the links.

What an absolute gem! You are, as they say here, a good egg and you put bloggers in touch with each other all over the world. This bonus though, is the pinnacle I'd say! You didn't have to do that - thanks. And thanks to redbubble for making such an opportunity available.

I never thought of selling stuff before. I might now. Thanks. :)

David, those photographs on your RedBubble site are absolutely spectacular. Wow, I'm still agog with awe... I want to order ALL of them and have them framed and hung on a wall all to themselves. Stunning, simply stunning!

Oh, thank you, too, for the POTDs - great writings.

Thank you! But I want you to know that I am simply tickled that you stop by for a read...and that your POTD is MY bonus!!!! Thanks so much for the link tip! And for including me in this wonderful list! I'm looking forward to reading everyone's posts! I know they'll be super!! ~Janine

Hi David!

Thanks so much for the link and also, thank you for the other wonderful blogs which I'm going to check out today. :)

Very interesting site here! I hope you don't mind if I follow you.

Have a terrific day!
Deb

I've seen Redbubble, considered it, mulled it... but how do you know when you've made a sale? Seems like you'd be basically putting your work in their hands on blind faith in their honesty. It's not like a local gallery where you can pop in and see if your piece is still on display or not. In the digital age, an unreported sale here one there, skim the money and nobody knows the difference, right?

So I guess I've been waiting to hear from somebody else how it worked out for them.

This is like buying a cd of your favorite band, and it comes with a bonus track!
Congratulations!

Terrific, a bonus addition. I will go a-reading. And, thank you so much for the POTD yesterday for Ash and Rain, my blog about crazy clients and their wild birds. You are amazing, I'm sure other bloggers agree when I say, I just don't know how to thank you enough, Elizabeth.

Eleonora Baldwin said...

Thank you for the link, David. And for your usual gracious list of POTDs, I have met so many wonderful bloggers here.
Ciao!

David, thanks again for the nomination. Much appreciated and I'm only sorry that the intrusion of real life work deadlines is prohibiting my more prompt responses to your posts.
