Great site. Hope you figure out a little revenue model for yourself. I see that the art prints idea I was going to recommend is already on the books, above, my other suggestion is a nice little ad pool called The Deck. I think that your’s is a blog of the caliber/exposure that you could get involved. http://decknetwork.net/ “The ad network
of creative, web and design culture”

Great job yours

Adsense does not make sense for high quality blogs like yours, it only works with spammy ones. Go for selling art prints, CPM ads (paid by 1000 page impressions), display ads (125*125 blog ads) and books via affiliate programs like Amazon. Also you should ask web hosting providers if they want to sponsor you. Media Temple is known to offer hosting for art and graphic design sources. Media Temple is known to provide reliable hosting for high profile blogs with big traffic spikes.

you could create a new site with the name â€œtomorrow and the day after tomorrowâ€ with the same one layout

I can also vouch for Bluehost, nothing but great experiences with them.

If you ever get really ambitious, you could consider selling limited edition _________. Any time I purchase a coffee mug or print or something small but useful from a private designer or blog or small store, I value it that much more knowing that it benefits a source I care about and have a connection with.

Uhh, you don’t have to host every single image on the server for example. Use Imageshack or s.th. like that

IÂ´m so sorry but I have no idea about this problem.
I like very much your website, to me is a very interesting window to see the world.
Please donÂ´t close it.

First of all: congrats!

Hopefully I’ll receive my salary this week and after that I’ll be able to donate or something, though I don’t have a PayPal account…

Fingers crossed and have a great time in Hamburg!
Keep up the good work! :)
