motion blur/ panning

[goodoneian]

hey, i read this article a few weeks ago and it really interested me.

http://www.popphoto.com/popularphot...ou-can-do-it-add-movement-to-your-photos.html

i've been trying it since then, but i can't seem to get my pictures to come out right. i can get the streaks of blur but my subject does not stay in focus. any comments or suggestions on what i'm doing wrong? any help is appreciated

yes, i've read that thread. but the technique used in the link i posted is different i believe, because it said to "pull the camera in" which is what i have trouble with. i could be wrong about the technique being different

I just keep the camera steady with the subject and shot at between 1/30 and 1/50
