After much consideration and watching the site languish I think it’s time to move JDMLove in a new direction. I don’t have enough time or really the desire to continually keep up with posting new articles and as a result the site has become stale and hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves. The JDMLove flickr pool however has been a huge success and is wildly popular! It’s with that I am finding that people have more time to just post a simple picture to flickr as opposed to wanting to write quality content for a blog and I think that’s fantastic and has leant inspiration for a new direction.

The plan is to move JDMLove off of wordpress and onto Tumblr. I want to try and set it up as a community site where fellow tumblr (and maybe non-tumblr members) can simply post a picture with a brief caption. Tumblr has a wonderfully simple and intuitive authoring interface which members can post straight from their iPhone! So if it all works out like I plan, contributors can simply snap a photo with their iPhone at a meet and post it immediately.

Tumblr also supports various forms of posting from text posts to audio posts. With such a wide variety of post mediums I hope the page will stay fresh and provide the content I was hoping the blog would.

I’ll post up designs on here as I go and those who do read or visit are free to comment on them. I’d also like to give a very special and sincere thanks to the authors who did contribute here, it wouldn’t have been even worth it without you! And thank you to the readers, I hope you follow the progress as we move over to Tumblr!
