Change to Wordpress
Saturday, June 16th, 2007I switched from TextPattern to Wordpress today, so some things could be kinda messed up. Email me if you see a problem.
i also eliminated the galleries as Flickr is a much better solution to photo display than my home-grown solution. My user name is PoorBC. For $25 a year, I can upload every photo we take…I mean the real 3 to 5 meg photo, not just a dumbed down version for the website. Flickr by default displays a bandwidth-friendly version, but the original photo is available for download if you choose to print a copy. You can do all sorts of things with the photos if you just open your wallet…printing on canvas, making postage stamps, etc….

That did the trick for me. I think I’ll like this service…
