For the past couple of days, I’ve been attempting to utilize my newfound photo uploading skills and put a couple of my latest pics on the front page of this blog. But things, they never go as planned. Seems that whenever I uploaded my new photos, they were enormously huge, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix them so they’ll fit.<\/p>\n
