Just some random thoughts on blogger, twitter and Facebook guys. I do not claim expertise in these social networking sites and blogging, heck I think I am not even a year old member of both twitter and Facebook and have been blogging since November 2009 only. But I do have some insights that could be helpful to some newer bloggers, twitters, Facebook mainstays out there.
my New avatar and twitter, well I have used quite a lot of avatars since starting my blog. But it is only recently that I have started to actually design my own though. I envy Toymaker's and Bmecha's avatars, it is very unique and they have been using it for a while now.
The sudden change in avatar is primarily because of twitter yesterday. As I was looking for good twitters to follow, I found some really cool looking avatars that stood out of the bunch. I then designed an avatar that would also look good even when it is very very small already ( important specially in twitter ).
My new avatar is yellow and black and is obviously based on the color scheme of my Kampfer. I added a bushy goatee as I sometimes forget to trim mine in real life. I also designed it to have a frown and a smirk at the same time ( close friends knows why ). I like my new avatar, even though it says nothing about my hobby, it pretty much shows my personality in a glance.
Facebook, I manage a couple of Facebook pages and have my own personal account. As most of you know by now, my wife uses my account for playing some Fb games even though she has her own account ( I wonder why? ). I am a bit active at our Mech Arts Community group page and a few fellow modelers and Gunpla enthusiasts like Gundam Guy is active in our community page as well.
As much as I have fun with interacting at our MAC Fb page, I feel I kinda neglected my own DC23 mech arts artist / fan page. Most modelers have this fan page stuff, just copied mine from Kenny ( Toymaker ). I am now starting to visit my own page more often these days, post a few photos once in a while and answer inquiries if there are some. It is easier to manage yourself than a community after all.
Blogger, Blogger is NOT free! This is important coz as much as I enjoy blogging, I felt it was kinda unfair that I thought it was a free service. However since last month, I could NO longer upload photos in my blogger account. Once you've reached the 1 GB quota for photos, you have to pay a premium for continuing to use it. Good thing I have a Pro Photobucket account, I now upload photos, even banners through this account.
SO, if you blog and upload photos as much as I do, be ready to pay a premium or have a Pro Photobucket or Pro Flicker account at hand. Heck, I have a Pro Photobucket account coz I also have exceeded the FREE quota in Photobucket. hehe, I guess I do blog too much.
Anyways, thanks for dropping by! Til' next post guys! :)
