I chose to use WordPress for my own site, with a theme designed by
Cudazi at ThemeForest. I hacked it up a bit so it has a look all my own and works the way I want it to.
My favorite thing is my blog, The Painted Journal. It's a google blog hooked up with a little Feedburner widget for collecting email addresses from all the people who are interested in seeing my new paintings. Works really great!
