I decided to change my Entrecard picture because I became tired of it. I still think it’s a cool picture but probably gave a few people the creeps along the line. I really put little time into actually using Entrecard because I do not want to depend on it for traffic. I’ve seen some hardcore droppers actually propel their blog into the Alexa top 100,000 merely from using it; however, if they stop for a few weeks, their traffic will quickly diminish. I’ve been meandering a little above or below the Alexa 100,000 mark for 2 years, but I put 0 effort into promoting my blog. Currently, I get 60% of my traffic from search engines and the rest from regular visitors. My blog is personal, and branding is not on my menu – although one day I may pay someone to design a brand identity for this site or others I’m considering.
Here’s my old EC picture, which was a photo manipulation of Kate Beckinsale:
I changed it to this for more of a happy vibe:
I altered the picture through Photofunia, a cool photo-manipulation site with a wide variety of useful variations. Here’s the entire picture:
I look a little stumpy in that suit, but note the alien craft above me to the right – the perverted aliens apparently liked my build. Though I look happy in the pic, my smile was soon changed to disgust after my abduction. I was inappropriately probed, examined, scrutinized, groped, fondled, felt up and molested in ways beyond earthly description. They explored every opening, hole, groove, furrow, portal, prominence and depression on my being. I have since taken 1000 showers and have been huddled in the corner crying like a lost child for days – I feel violated and unclean.
Photofunia has dozens of other cool possibilities, check these out:
What woman wouldn’t want a Bobby dress like that…hehe!

Hi Jodi! You can say whatever you want here. I only spent five minutes constructing this entire “filler” post.

I want that mug for Christmas but I don’t want to get into any trouble… ha ha. I don’t think you have to much time on your hands, I like to dip in Photoshop myself. Cool post- see you.

Thanks Michelle! Photoshop is far too overpriced and the stock version on most new PC’s has few features. I haven’t bought software in years, everything I have is bootleg…lol!

That looks like a fun photo tool! Thanks for sharing, Bobby! I’d wear your photo dress but only if I had Gisele’s body! LOL.

Hi Teeni! Yes, it has many cool mock ups that are fun. Is that Gisele? How dare she use my picture – I will sue for millions!

Hi Bobby!
If I wear your Revellian Supermodel Dress, will it make me look and feel 30 years younger?
I hope your Revellian Java doesn’t burn like Lava?
Looks like your Revellian Coffee is the perfect brew for reading your Horror posts!

Hi Debbie! I dunno if it’ll make you look 30 years younger, but I guarantee people will stare and say things about you…haha!

You must try your talent on writing scary sci-fi stories. The description about aliens is very realistic. (Or were you speaking from experience? lol, just kidding:) Anyway, I’ve downloaded a 14-day free trial Photoshop last week. So, I must hurry ‘coz I only have 7 days left to try ‘plastering’ my portrait on a coffee mug. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Acai! I’m a fan of science fiction movies, but not so much literature. I may attempt something like that!

Thanks Lulu! If some woman actually wanted to wear it, I’d have serious questions about her…LOL!

Time to open and Etsy shop and start selling those coffee cups! And for those followers who live in the warmer reaches of the US, those dresses would probably sell too!
