<div>After much deliberation between Sandy and myself, we determined that canned Web sites were not for us. We needed a brand new look and feel for our organization, a site that allowed us to maintain the entire Web and Blog content, plus the physical layout necessary to remain current with todays Social networking. &nbsp;</div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<h3>Second Decision</h3>
<div>After many hour of research we decided to utilize Squarespace <a href="http://www.squarespace.com/" target="_blank">www.squarespace.com</a> a fully hosted, completely managed environment. It provides us with full control over our content and site customization.&nbsp; With customizable photo galleries and Lightbox integration, maintaing image resizing is simply a breeze. Not to mention the seamless integration of Florida Digital Gallery&rsquo;s blog and Web Site all on one platform. Lastly the Social networking integration and vast amount of &ldquo;plug in&rsquo;s&rdquo; available provide powerful analytics for viewing traffic and behavior of our visitors.</div>]]></content:encoded></rss:item><rss:item rdf:about="http://fdgblog.com/blog/2009/12/2/imaging-usa-show-expo.html"><rss:title>Imaging USA show &amp; Expo</rss:title><rss:link>http://fdgblog.com/blog/2009/12/2/imaging-usa-show-expo.html</rss:link><dc:creator>FDG</dc:creator><dc:date>2009-12-02T14:51:00Z</dc:date><dc:subject>Out &amp; About</dc:subject><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="full-image-inline ssNonEditable"><span><img src="http://fdgblog.com/storage/post-images/iusa_logo.png?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1256571913730" alt="" /></span></span></p>

<p>Terry Klein, contacted Florida Digital Gallery for a exclusive studio photo session to capture Sofia for the Fort Lauderdale's Children Ballet Theatre program book, Coppelia. Sofia has studied ballet for over 6 years and is very passionate about the art of ballet. This two hour photo session captured both the classical along with some creative movements.</p>
<p>We found Sofia very graceful and incredibly focused, but most importantly she knows how to have fun and strike a pose! Mrs. Klein enjoyed the end results and will share some of these wonderful photos with family and friends.</p>
<p>Florida Digital Gallery always enjoys photographing fun and delightful children of all ages.</p>]]></content:encoded></rss:item><rss:item rdf:about="http://fdgblog.com/blog/2009/11/9/happy-hanna.html"><rss:title>Happy Hanna</rss:title><rss:link>http://fdgblog.com/blog/2009/11/9/happy-hanna.html</rss:link><dc:creator>FDG</dc:creator><dc:date>2009-11-09T15:26:20Z</dc:date><dc:subject>Pets</dc:subject><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="full-image-float-right ssNonEditable"><span><img src="http://fdgblog.com/storage/post-images/HanaComboblog.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1257780368258" alt="" /></span></span>To say that Hanna has spirit is an understatement.&nbsp; It is always a challenge photographing a 16 pound dog on a product table. <br /><br />Hanna was such a trooper, posing as if she was a runway model.&nbsp; Hanna&rsquo;s beautiful course black hair, plus a very pink tummy worked well against a white back drop.&nbsp; Cindy DeMichele, the dogs owner was thrilled with Sandy and my photographic results. <br /><br />Toward the end of our session Hanna became a bit bashful with the flashing Pro-photo lights but we accomplished our task, over thirty pictures taken with a pristine look and feel. <br /><br />Much thanks to Cindy &amp; Rich for trusting us with their loved one.<br /><br /><br /></p>]]></content:encoded></rss:item></rdf:RDF>
