Comments:
I’ve mostly been happy with the template I selected for this blog. But I think one of the main drawbacks is that it doesn’t let you click on the picture to enlarge it. Subscribers can click on the photo in the e-mail to enlarge it, but casual visitors can’t. I try to post photos at a size that can be easily viewed without overwhelming the whole post, but sometimes it would be nice to be able to see greater detail. The other day I realized I can create a link to the location on WordPress where the image is stored so that people can view my scan full-sized if they want to. Not that I create such enormous scans, but being able to enlarge the photo two or three times can make a difference. So in an effort to make this blog as enjoyable and user-friendly as possible, I’ll try creating a link like that with each new post, as I did above. Of course, that requires manually creating the link each time, which might get tiresome, so if people feel it’s not worthwhile, let me know and I won’t bother. But if people like it, then I’ll keep doing it, and I may even try to go back and do it for some old posts. Meanwhile, here’s another interesting face from out of the past for you to enjoy staring at.
