Just realised that most of the photos I’ve been uploading have been regular size (eg. 2-3 MB) instead of being properly re-sized for the web. Apologies to anyone who’s still on dial-up (uhm, is there anyone still on dial-up?) Not sure if it’s been mentioned on my blog yet (if you’re following Shea’s Facebook photo […]
