The front-on view of a garment is the conventional, possibly the only acceptable way we are expected to show our outfits.  The Comme des Garcons A/W 2012 show, with a report by Tim Blanks, provided a fresh and provocative commentary on this phenomenon.   In that spirit: personally I like the back view of this cardigan I am wearing here.  I think it is more interesting.
My daily activities included housecleaning, the day's highlight of a short walk on the beach, followed by hours of driving, then more housework.  It's been one of those days.  I'm tired.

Thank you so much for the helpful suggestions yesterday.  I've checked out the links everyone recommended and especially found helpful the articles on blog-scraping recommended by ElleC.  I've also removed the link to the bogus blog from my post on the excellent advice of finishedgarment.  I am working on my complaint via that blogger form.   Thanks again, everybody.  Your kind support was and is, very much appreciated  :)
