Please bear with me....

If there's anybody out there actually reading this blog, I apologize for the huge photo files. They're probably taking forever to load. Please bear with me as I'm still trying to figure out how to shrink the files to a more reasonable size. Right now, I'm at a standstill, surmising that I need special software. Windows XP has an automatic means of shrinking photo files when sending emails, but I can't find anything for uploading to the web. Seems kind of stupid to me to have it available for one use but not another.
