Gonna Make This Garden Grow...

in ctp •  5 years ago 

My last few articles explained the need to brand yourself, using your own name and avatar.

Of course, we need to spice up our offerings, as to keep to the same format is boring. Also, there's that old saying that a picture paints a thousand words. To convey a story, consider the slideshow technique to add interest.

Given that I was using free open-sourced software, I was unable to work out how to get the slideshow file with extension .odp (OpenDocument Presentation) to upload so I have just uploaded each slide separately, using copy and paste from that file. Please use creative license and pretend you are viewing the slides in rotation.

The first few photographs were taken in January 2019, and we end with November 30.

"voter.proxy.size() == 0: A proxy is currently set, please clear the proxy before voting for a witness.""

Yep, witness'd you guys back in October. Shows you how effective your commentary strategy is! Have a nice day.

Very cool garden. Great work!

Thank you for your kind words, and thanks also for your support. I'll be going to my brother's place in another week to check out the garden, and take some my pics. Work in progress!
