Just looking for constructive criticism. Too many photos? Not enough photos? Too much "story time" for each one? I'm also trying to find a way to make my images bigger, anyone have any tips?

Thank you ahead of time. rolleyes.gif

on a 1024 wide screen... that header is going to be really big. yes.. to make the images bigger... upload through photobucket or flicker. smile.gif I think you're off to a good start!

Thanks Bobbi, I appreciate the feedback. I'll try that upload method for the images. thumbsup.gif We'll get it there. smile.gif

I like your header- although I agree- it might be more effective if it was larger- I might consider making your pics in your posts larger as well- to me they seem small-

Hey Jim,
I don't think you have too many photos!

There are several ways to acheve larger images in you blog posts, but the first step is manipulating the HTML code in blogger.

The three things that I adjusted in mine was
1) outerwrapper *width: 1070px*
2) Main wrapper *901.5px*
3) Sidebar wrapper *150px*

Do yourself a favor before you start jockeying with the code... (if you are on a PC) Save a copy in typepad, so just in case you mess it up you have a safetynet.
As far as the "large" images go, When I create a new post I type in <img src= "image address from photobucket"/> and I link in the images from Photobucket.
You can host the images on your own server but you would have to type in the URL for every single photo. Photobucket automaticly spits out the URL of the image. And I like that `cause I'm lazy... rolleyes.gif
My image size for my blog is 900x601px

Hope this helps! PM me if you need a hand...

Thank you, I'll try that out and see if I can figure it out. rolleyes.gif
