This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Start a WIX Warbird Restoration Blog - easy and FREE!

Tue Oct 16, 2007 9:42 am

THIS EXTENDS TO ANY AND ALL WIXERS INVOLVED WITH RESTORATION PROJECTS

I am willing to design and host a blog with photo hosting capability to any WIXer who is working on a restoration project of their own or on a team (like the PBJ in Camarillo). It includes:

- Setting up WordPress (blog software) on radial-group.com or (if Scott is cool with it) warbirdsresourcegroup.org

- Basic design to match your aircraft or theme... including buttons for RSS and donations (if you have a PayPal tip jar)

- Photo FTP account on the server, so your photos can be hosted native instead of through Photobucket or the like.

- Instructions on how to setup and use Microsoft Live Writer (beta = free) ... truly the EASIEST program to update with.

The only catches are:
1) A banner on the site that advertises WIX or WRG (or any future WRG warbird related advertisers - no spam),
2) a small banner saying that I designed it,
3) You must make at least one update per week! And put a post on WIX directing people to it!

Simple as that! For an example of what you can do with a restoration blog, go to Brian Karli's blog on his 1918 JN4D Jenny restoration at: http://curtissjennyrestoration.blogspot.com/

PM me or email me (email preferred) if you are interested. If you'd like to call me, please see my contact details at: http://www.ryankeough.com
