Squarespace gets described as a blogging tool a lot, but really it's a full content management system. That means that it can be good at lots of things. I hadn't heard of it before this post, but I did some research and I found nothing but rave reviews. I'm not really interested in trying it out. One thing that isn't really made clear from the photographers.squarespace.com url is what the difference between the "photographer" version and the normal version is. Is it just the template you start out with? Because I registered for a trial and it set me up with a basic photo portfolio template. It still looked like I had access to all the other features though. More of a marketing thing than a real difference in products, perhaps?

But the results from tinkering around for a few minutes are really impressive; in a short time, you can build a very professional set of galleries.

What I'm not happy with is how the new layout of the site with the sponsors logos on does not display properly in certain browsers now. In particular the layout is not displaying properly on safari, with the tags overlapping the elements of the right sidebar. It doesn't look good and also interferes with the interface, making it difficult to read and interact with. I'm happy with the sponsors like Squarespace and what they have to offer.

I've been looking for something simple to use for my new photography site since I just don't have the time to code my own from the ground up at the moment. Squarespace seems to be just what I've been looking for - thanks for the introduction! Wow - I'm really impressed.

Every single sample is interesting, different, and beautiful. There are plenty of sites for the social aspects. Building a good site for commerce with support isn't as easy.
