<p>So once upon a time <a href="http://www.dailybooth.com">DailyBooth</a> had some sort of spiffy photo-sharing widget, and there was even a <a href="http://www.wordpress.org/">WordPress</a> plugin (aptly named <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/dailybooth-fetcher/">DailyBooth Fetcher</a>) that would display as many photos as you would like to have displayed on a WordPress-powered blog. But the widget seems to have disappeared, and the plugin reports a 404 error with the .xml file it is supposed to be fetching and displaying photos from.</p>
<p>The good news is that DailyBooth makes it <strong>very</strong> easy for you to share your latest photo on your blog about <a href="http://www.babystuffgifts.com/gift-baskets-for-baby.html">baby gift baskets</a>, or on any other type of website. It&#8217;s just not something that is publicized. In fact, I only know about it because I saw it in action on <a href="http://www.glam-girl.org">glam-girl.org</a>!</p>
<p>So, the super awesome method of displaying your latest DailyBooth photo? Simple &#8212; use the following image URL (be sure to substitute <em>username</em> with <strong>your</strong> username):</p>
<blockquote><p>http://dailybooth.com/<strong>username</strong>/latest/large.jpg</p></blockquote>
<p>Small &#038; medium sizes are available as well (simply change <em>large</em> to <em>small</em> or <em>medium</em>).</p>

<p>Spring is coming, and with spring comes renewal, bright colors, and warm weather. In between checking out some pastel tablecloths and potential Easter baskets, and deciding upon what kind of <a href="http://www.lightoutlet.com/lighting/advSearch.pl?ct=55,63,70,72,106,107,121">outdoor lighting</a> I want, I&#8217;ve been thinking about doing some blog theme makeovers. Spring is about lighter colors, and I definitely love these color schemes:</p>

<p><a href="http://www.colourlovers.com">colourlovers.com</a> is great for color schemes. You&#8217;d be amazed at the inspiration you might get from just a simple color scheme.</p>

<p>In addition to being updated often, your blog is deserving of a makeover. Keeping your <acronym title="Content Management System">CMS</acronym> and its plugins/modifications up to date is good for security and functionality, but a makeover is a great way to refresh your blog&#8217;s style. Even if you&#8217;re writing about a bland topic like <a href="http://www.faucet.com/decor/static.pl?S=promo/Danzestore">Danze faucets</a>, the right look can still make the content seem exciting!</p>
<p>Here are a few great ways to makeover your blog:</p>
<ul>
<li>Choose a new color scheme. Color schemes are carefully coordinated colors that blend and contrast beautifully. I recommend <a href="http://www.colourlovers.com">Colour Lovers</a> for finding color schemes. You can search by colors, patterns and keywords, and even browse palettes by votes, popularity and more.</li>
<li>Throw in a few new plugins. <a href="http://www.wordpress.org">WordPress</a> in particular has thousands of <a href="http://www.wordpress.org/extend/plugins">plugins</a> that can improve your website&#8217;s functionality, and/or just make it more fun to interact with!</li>
<li>Spice up your <a href="http://sixrevisions.com/web_design/20-websites-with-beautiful-typography/">typography</a>. A simple font change can really dramatically affect the look of your blog, without all of the hard work involved with creating a new layout!</li>
<li>Stylize your comments. For WordPress users, here is a great list of <a href="http://www.darrenhoyt.com/2007/08/18/styling-your-wordpress-comments/">inspirational comments styling</a>. The list includes screenshots of the comments in action, and the coding that makes it happen!</li>
<li>Create a new signature look for your blog. Pick a logo, a set of colors, or a way of presenting your website title, and stick with it!</li>
</ul>
