Doing Things Wrong

New Photos and Slideshows

After going through a bunch of WordPress slideshow plugins before I finally found a good one, I have started adding new photos of my projects. Eventually, each one will start out with a slideshow of the finished product, followed by whatever build details I have for it. Some of them are quite lengthy.

For this, I built a photo stand that holds each piece at a good angle under the workshop lights. This will make the job of re-photographing everything much faster and easier.

I finally got the WordPress image mess sorted out. Additionally, I resized all the images to fit in a 1000x1000 box. ( I kept backups of the originals. ) 1000x1000 is larger than the largest an image will display on this layout, about 800x800, so I have some upgrade room in the future if I want it. At the same time, it shrinks the files by 60-70%. Making even smaller images would be only slightly better, and I want to keep everything simple.
