I haven't been writing any additional text, but have been photoblogging my daily photos as well.

As a visual person I have found my element to express in images, but even as a reluctant writer I have found writing a few sentences or a poem to describe each day's photo within Flickr's description field, makes it easy to include writing daily. An example is Farewell my Cactus
To follow this visual story on my blog Shaun's Learning Odyssey I created a Flickr gadget to show my 365 photos as a slide show in the side panel.
I would love to do another daily photo journal perhaps using a site like Blipfoto Journal, but perhaps after I have survived a few months of 365 :-)

I'm blogging mine, too. I already have a daily blog, but put up a separate one just for my Project 365 photos: Lynn's Project 365.

I'm in the great group as well. I have a great blog format, on word press. Looks like you are using the same one D'Racy. It's perfect for this project.

So far, so good. I'm a day ahead and I'm off to DC for the Inauguration. Great photo ops to come!

I have a photoblog, but it's not necessarily based on my 365 photos: anabuckmaster.wordpress.com. I would love some feedback since I'm very much an amateur. =)

I also have a photo blog where I post my 365 photos with a little paragraph or two. safotari.wordpress.com
I am a few days behind, so need to scramble to catch up this weekend before I lose it completely!

I have been blogging about each of my photos. everydayinaphoto.blogspot.com/
This was a project that I undertook while on winter break and I'm hopeful to stay faithful. ;o) I'm very proud to say that as of day 18, I have uploaded and posted everyday.

I have started to put the photos in a blog because I saw that flickr could blog the picture. loonyhiker2009photos.blogspot.com/

I haven't done this yet but think it is a great idea. I am finding the little description piece helpful in freeing up the writer's block within. Thanks for all the links above, I think I will go take a look.

I gave myself the gift of time last summer to play, experiment with and enjoy my new camera. I set up a photoblog, www.dibytes.ca/ and have now added the 365 project to it. I'm going to use it as a journal of lessons learned. Drop by if you have a few minutes to spare.

Interesting variety of responses. I periodically use my flickr bits to be the base of a longer post, blogging it from within flickr, but I also experiment with writing extended captions as a form of blogging within flickr:
flickr.com/photos/cogdog/sets/72157612378449421/
I'm fairly fanatical about writing titles and captions for almost every photo.

Oi, I got inspired by D'Arcys's mindfulseeing.org/ -- the Monotone template is cool since it matches the photo's tones automatically as background color for a photoblog.
I just hoisted one on WordPress.com (it does not offer the wider template D'Arcy probably coded), but I have it set so I can blog directly from flickr to add them. I am about 20 behind, but will catch up soon:

DWDD? ;-)
I think the theme adapts automagically to the width of the image - I have my photoblog posting 800px wide images, and the theme accommodates that. I don't remember hardcoding the theme (doesn't mean I didn't do it) but I think that was an automatic thing.

Maybe. I'm using the free wordpress.com one; I tried uploading a big image and it seemed to resize it to 500.
I did not want to run another blog, so what I am doing is blogging directly from flickr, and the biggest size the templates use is 500.

Weird. It's supposed to be the same code in the theme - I wonder if the settings on that blog are forcing resize to 500px? check the Settings > Media page and see if you can crank up whatever size is being used.
But if Flickr is only sending over 500px-wide images, there's not much else you can do. I export an 800px version from Aperture and upload that directly to the blog because I didn't like how WordPress desaturated the images when resizing them.

I've been writing on the Flickr photo descriptions as my blogging platform instead of creating a blog just for it.

I have a 365 project blog as well. I found I enjoyed this way of organising my thoughts. My blog is at threesixtyfivecountdown.blogspot.com/ Don't write much but it is worth it for me
