This one reminds me of the jagged profile of the Black Cuillin mountains on the Isle of Skye.

I've just seen your website. Is that new? I don't remember seeing it before. It's looking good.

I see what you mean with the mountains. I used to watch a series '2000 Acres of Skye' I think it was called with whats'er'name off EastEnders. It looked a lovely place.

The website has always been there, just with a different template. I changed it to the Christmas template last night. It's done with Auctiva.com which is linked to my eBay account and lists all I have for sale on eBay. You can change the template with the click of a button.

By the way, what do you think of Facebook? I can't decide whether I prefer Facebook or Blogger for showcasing work.

I don't know what to make of Facebook yet. I got into it because it was being talked about so much and I thought I'd better try it. I get a lot of "Friend requests" so it may be easier to build up a network of contacts with it.

It certainly seems a lot easier making contacts on Facebook than it does on Blogger.

You might want to think about setting up a Facebook "Page". They seem to be more suitable for business use and that is what I am using at the moment. One advantage, as I understand it, is that Pages can be viewed by people without a Facebook account. I have just been reading a bit of information about them here and here.

I've just found this in the Facebook help pages as well -

"Why is a Page a better solution than a personal account for artists, businesses, or brands?

Personal accounts are optimized for individuals, not artists, businesses, or brands. Facebook Pages allow artists, businesses, and brands to showcase their work and interact with fans. These pages come pre-installed with custom functionality designed for each category. For example, a band Page has a music player, video player, discography, reviews, tour dates, a discussion board that the artists can take advantage of. Third party developers will also build an array of applications that they will compete for Page Admins to add to their Pages. Facebook Pages are also not subject to a fan limit and can automatically accept fan requests."

Thanks for those Keith. I'll have to have a good read.
