Spring at the Daye...

I've been working on some new images, which I have been posting on here, as well as a new banner for the spring/summer season, which is on the site now.  And can also be seen here right now... drum roll please...

I'm attempting to keep the feel of the past several banners, with a bit of imagery, which, I hop will reflect the general principals of this blog which are;

• Our environment, climate change and global warming
• Human rights
• Photography and the arts

I hope you like it, and as always, your comments on this or any post are always welcome. You can also sign up to receive this blog by email or by RSS. Look for the links in the right column of the page.

I'd also like to remind you that our Earth Hour poll is still continuing for about another week, so I hope you will participate in the poll and in Earth Hour. 

In the coming days and weeks I am going to continue to work on my website and will be adding some of my favorite photos and sprucing it up, now that I've finally got it online. Thanks for stopping by, I hope  you will return soon.

Best regards, Mark Daye

Updating ...the Daye...

If you are a regular visitor (do I have any of those?) you will have noticed some changes this week. I have been experimenting with photography a little and have attempted to create my own page header. You probably noticed a new one displayed now. It is a picture I took last night of my spice jars. Some other new (and I think exciting) things are the Poll of ...the Daye..., which I am using to guage what visitors would like to see more of at this site. The current poll is open until the end of July.

I have also created a sign up field where you can enter your email address and you will join ...the Daye... Google Group. Why, you may ask? Because, it was the easiest way I found to give readers an option to sign up and receive posts in their inbox. Using this feature, I create a list of people who will receive the postings when they are published. I will use it when I begin sending out the 'Word of ...the Daye...' and the 'Place of ...the Daye...' again, probably in September.

Another new feature is ...the Dave... Videos, which displays four thumbnails of David's video creations, which are all available on his You Tube page. When you click the thumbnail the video opens and plays at the top of the page, so I've tried to keep the thumbs near the top also.

Others features include the Toronto weather gadget on the right side of the screen, the fish at the bottom, which you can feed by clicking your mouse and the photo album, which is where I will display my photos that I am not too embarrased to share. I've also added a counter and links to other sites that I like.

I hope you like the changes, and will sign up for my list, participate in the polls and keep visiting. ~Mark
