due,
all you need are words and pictures to sufficiently get your point across and this format captures that. Now go do what it is that you do…

How can I get this format for my own blog? I love the size of the photos.

I agree with Jason on several points. But I will push forward a touch: I would *LOVE* to see this (if this hasn’t happened already) as a option on my site meaning instead of creating a Diary like I have done so already, THIS blog as a theme option would be incredibly awesome.

I would assume that we would also be able to set up the photos on the clothesline to use our own…

Any plans to add this blog set up as a theme?

My site serves two main functions: 1) shows of my photos of course, but also a main gallery of my family for out of town family to keep track of us, and 2) a Diary for the same reason.

The way I do the Diary now just seems a little old now and needs to be refreshed with a new *hint* look.

I like the look (agree with Joe a bit) but overall I like it; It’s creative. It would be really cool to have a blog format included on SmugMug for all of the photographers to use on a regular basis … I know many professional photographers are starting to utilize these in their business. I know that your bread and butter is photos … and you do a killer job at it, but have you guys ever considered offering a blog template?

It’s very feminine.

I like it. It’s a nice open layout with plenty of space to show off the pictures. And it looks good in Google Reader.

Looks great! I think it may get too wide—narrower columns are easier to read. The colors definitely give better text contrast though.

It feels like a breath of fresh air. It’s so very much easier to read. Thanks, guys!

I really liked the colors of the old design, but this is much easier to read.
