Have You Found Lenscrafting Easy?

From the lens Fresh Squid Graduation Class April 2009 .

Or you encountered on some difficulties? And what helped you go though them?

    I think it's easy enough literally anyone could do it. I overwhelm easily sometimes and it's never overwhelmed me or confused me at all. Plus there are so many lenses on 'how to' write a lense I just had others guide me through the process.

    It doesn't get better than this folks! Even if you have no HMTL skills whatsoever this place makes you look like a pro. "Easy" doesn't even describe it.....more like "super simple" My seven year old wants to start building her own lenses and with Squidoo it's totally possible.

    Now I do. In the beginning it confused me, and seemed overwhelming. Now it is just fun. I also had some content I had written previously for articles, that I had never finished or published saved in my computer. I turned some of that into Squidoo lenses and was able to get some done pretty quickly. I have had writers block from time to time and I would have to say the best thing for that is to read. Type in a subject you are interested in and learn more about it. That almost always gives me motivation and ideas on creating my next lens.

    The act of lenscrafting itself is simple and straightforward, although I tend to spend quite a lot of time on each lens I create, and generally a lot of effort as well. I can't commit to publishing a lens and letting it go live until I have quite a lot of info and visual interest laid out. But then of course I continue to edit them when I have more time or more information to add.

    I found it easy to make lenses, of course, but I've had to go back and seriously edit them. I started by just shoving too many pictures up and not having enough words! It has been so helpful being a part of the Wiwon giant squid challenge team because I've learnt so much from my team members.
