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.

Those who follow this site, either directly or via the RSS feed, may have noticed some “issues” during the past week. I’ve been working to deal with some hosting issues and this has caused some problems – and they may not be over just yet.

Those who follow the site via the feed, in particular, may wonder where the photo thumbnails have gone. I hope to restore them before long, but for now your best bet is to click on the article’s title link and visit the site to see them.

Thanks for your patience.
