I’ve shared a post or two over the past couple of days about some site issues that I’ve been dealing with. For example, earlier I posted about the disappearance of images from the RSS feed – unfortunate, but it has to happen for a while until I work out some server load issues.

I’ve made a few other changes today. Some of them are “under the hood” and are not directly visible -some caching features may speed up the site a bit, for example. Others are visible – for example, I have removed the “tab bar” from the top of the page and replaced it with simple links in the sidebar. The gallery has also been changed a bit, mostly by decreasing the size of thumbnails and the number of images that appear on each page. And there are more to come: soon the full-size versions of posted photographs will be reduced slightly and the fancy script that opens them on top of the page may go away.

Thanks for your understanding as I make these changes.
