I'm doing fine taking pictures--every day so far--and OK on layouts, though I find the layouts more difficult than I anticipated. I want to keep it simple, but I am also so into my photography these days that I want every shot well represented as I shot it or as I processed it. This means many templates just won't work for me--I never have 7 portrait oriented shots in a week, never have a picture I want cropped square, never have 7 horizontal pictures, and so on. So I'm struggling a bit with that aspect.
I upload my pictures to my computer every evening and clear the card for the next day. I upload to Flickr either that evening or the next morning. Sundays I keep the computer off, so the rhythm is a little off, but I get them off the card Monday morning. I really like seeing what I got during the day. On some days I'll get whatever pictures I've taken onto the computer partway through the day just to see if I have something I like or if I need to take more pictures. I really try to have a picture I genuinely feel good about every day--it doesn't always happen, but that's what makes me happiest.
