It's amazing to think that Photo 365 is almost 1/4 completed. When I first started the project, I made sure that I didn't set some insanely high standards for myself. I knew it was quite possible that this would be something I'd start with good intentions, but then drop at some point along the way. However, grabbing my camera at some point during the day has become such a habit that I don't even think about it anymore. But I'm fully aware that while I'm still interested and going strong right now, that might completely change 2 months, 2 weeks, or even 2 days from now. So I've put together some resources, products, blogs, and other Photo 365 goodness to share with you, in case you're in need of some inspiration or motivation with your Photo 365 project. Enjoy, and feel free to leave links to your own favorites in the comments section!
1. A great article at Photojojo
2. 365project.org -- My friend Lauren uses this site, and I think it's a great place to keep your photos organized and captioned, as well as share them with friends and family
3. P365 Flickr group, started by Liz of paislee press -- a great way to share your photos and feedback with friends
4. daily prompts from Two Peas in a Bucket -- you can find these on the General Scrapbooking board in the forums, with a message thread for each day (here's the thread for 3/22)
5. Inspirational Sketches by Kitty Design -- I love the white background and graphic style of these templates. A perfect way to put your photos center-stage.
6. Habit blog -- my own habit of jotting a few lines underneath each photo on my weekly posts came directly from this blog. It's a daily read for me
7. 365 Days Photo & Journal Overlays by Ali Edwards -- a great, flexible product
8. Creating Keepsakes has a list of 365 photo prompts to choose from if you're feeling stuck.
9. Design 365 Month + Year Stamp Set by Deena Rutter: another great graphic set of date stamps
10. Feeling like your photos are of the same things day after day? Why not go with a theme? Here are some great collections for inspiration:
Self-portraits
Your town
A Collection a Day
For date stamps I have been using Carina's A Year of Rubons (http://www.designhousedigital.com/carina-gardner/design-365-a-year-of-rub-ons) and I really love them.

I love the Habit blog... It is so unique, minimalist, yet saying a million things ;) I am really enjoying your 365, well and your whole bloggy life too. The layouts have been inspiring of late... now, if I can hollow out the minutes to work on such things...
