EclaireArt's Facelift




Here is a little video about my life.
If you are living a life you can be passionate about, you are "into something good".



Welcome to the new and improved EclaireArt!

There are some subtle changes around here. All of the headers have been re-done on the side pages. My goal for the site update was to incorporate social media/subscription options and to create a clean, aesthetically pleasing look that is easy to navigate.

Check out the changes:

Photobucket

The "Portfolio" (Photography & Photo Styling) page is now up to date with all my recent photos (aside from the ones being published).

Photobucket

The "About" page has been updated with the video and more information about photo styling.

These little guys are social media buttons and help give you options for us to connect.

* The first button is for the RSS feed subscription, which is a method of updating you when I do new blog posts.
* The "f" button is for Facebook. If you click "Like" on EclaireArt's Facebook page, you can get notifications in your news feed about new blog posts.
* The "P" button is for Pinterest, an amazing image board site. I literally just got started at 4am this morning, but you can check out the boards I made so far. I created an EclaireArt board, which will just feature photos from this site. I also have other inspiration boards where I gathered images throughout the internet that I thought were appealing and grouped them together. It is a lot of fun!
* The little envelope button is for e-mailing and it will start an e-mail to me in your default program. You can also e-mail me through the contact tab.

Towards the top is a new search bar, where you can search the website alone for key words to better navigate to specific pages.

There is also a "follow by e-mail" bar where you can enter your e-mail in order to receive notifications of new blog posts.

Photobucket

The new "Pet Photography" tab is at the top, which I will update on a regular basis. Just click on the buttons for each pet to see a specific post. I am hoping to do the same thing for the recipe section once I organize it a little better.

Photobucket

Yui now has her own page! I kind of like the dog, you know? I will continue to update future posts she is in at the bottom of that page.

You can also "grab a button" by copying and pasting the html coding and placing it on your own site to link back to mine. - Thank you if you do!


Hopefully these changes to the site will make it easier for you to navigate and subscribe. I have some exciting news to share with you soon. Thanks for stopping by and take care!
