Color me even crazier than usual – but today I tweaked this blog to upgrade my photos from 700 pixels wide to this all-new 740 wide!!
[My Canadian hometown, 2008. Kelly, Alyssa, nephew Austin.]
Okay, so My Amazing Camera is still a thing of the future, but what do you think of these 740 px wides??
I would be SO grateful if you could please let me know your most intimate thoughts pertaining to my new Ludicrously Wide photos.

In the poll below, please check ALL that apply.
Thank you all so very very much a lot!!!!
And feel free to leave any additional input in a comment below.

I like the big photos! And they don’t take long at all to load. In fact, there’s no waiting on my end and my computer sucks.

Good looking photos!
Looks like a great time was had by all there.
The pictures load well, and they are okay.
I sent you some emails, not sure whether you got them? Have to do with the Giveaway.
Best Wishes

I like this size. The pictures have a kind of crisp yet expansive feel to them. Totally cool.

I voted for the new wide photos, but was chagrined that I didn’t notice the fried chicken option. Shoot.

Lovely blue water and beautiful children what is not to love about this post? And a survey – always fun for me…
On 25 June 2010 at 10:29 pm Jannie said,
Dear FIRST Paige… it was a toss-up between cheetos, fried chicken, dark chocolate or pumpkin pie, so I went for my favorite.
Will make sure BB hears you like his hat.
Dear Sheila… I remember your HP “craptop” woes, but am so glad to hear the big pix open easily. Oh, I added in that option “open with ease and gusto” on your behalf.
Dear Ana… thanks, glad they are “okay”: to load and look at!
And thanks for the heads-up on the e-mails, I’ll check it later!
Dear Doctor J, yep knitting well but expected to take a full 6 months to be completely calcified and such.
Dear Anne, my Anne who has always been so supportive of my HUGE pix… how are ya, Girl? Hope you and the kids and chickens are all well?
Dear SuziCate, adn there you are with your sharp new gravatar of pretty you. And isn’t it cool how all previous comments get your new look?
Dear Tayah — does that mean my page sucked before?
Well, thanks, I’ll tell BB you are liking it more and more here.
Dear Talon… desn’t she look totally in command. I almost called that pic “Master & Commander” but she’s a mistress. Or a Miss?
Yep, 740 seems a right good width for sweetness! 
Dear Daisy, why thanks lovely lady. I like them, but it matters to me that you all like BIG photos too. After all this blog is for YOU guys, as well as me.
Dear Alice Audrey… “Crisp and expansive” that has a certain wonderful ring to it — that je ne sais quoi I was aiming for.
Thanks, lady.
Dear Lynn — don’t worry, I’ll include fried chicken in my next survey, some way some how. And maybe chocolate mousse pie too!
Dear Patricia… Blue water everywhere takes the blues away. So glad you like the new BIG pix, and those cute kids. And the survey.

Wey hey HEY! 40 extra pixels for my buck? Colour me cinemascope! Next week, I expect them all to be in eye gouging 3D!
Pssst… someone may want to tell Alyssa and Kelly that the thing they’re standing on works better in the blue wobbly stuff that’s behind them. Just sayin’.
On 26 June 2010 at 1:19 pm Julie said,
I like the photos.
I didn’t have to wait to see them on my internet connection. They loaded at the same speed as everything else.

Dear Sweet Jewel, I love salad too — green salad, chicken salad, macaroni salad, potato salad. Yummy! I should’ve put in this post that these pix were taken with my old digital camera, the one that died last winter. Glad you like them.
Dear Lovely, I mean manly and nice Tony, yep — great value here in Funsterland, wot?
I’m actually in the process of designing a type f mnitr add-on that will make my photos evern larger than the average PC or Mac screen! Stay tuned. And I could TOTALLY go to 780 with a mere adjustment of sidebar to 160 pix, instead of 200. hmnnnnn. 
Dear Sweet Julie. Hi! And what a cute new gravatar you have there. AWESOME they loaded so fast for you. I am beginning to feel better and better about these Ludicrous sized pix.
Hope you are extra well today!!

Would you believe I actually went to eat some KFC leftover chicken while waiting for this to load? You must be a mind-reader a day in advance…
I only get to buy it a couple times of year, so make it last awhile.
The pics are beautiful as you know.
but with my lame memory-challenged puter which likes to crash on a 50.6 bps telephone modem, it’s easier to see the littler ones n click on them to enlarge when I have more time.
All the pix below are openning that large also?

Nevermind- pics are just a .3 inch smaller below I think..
Oh, I had to open my browser wider too!

Hello, all you little cuties of the universe.
I’m at the library. You probably don’t really need to know that, but I feel better sharing exactly where I am at all moments of the night and day with you.
Hi William! Why, thanks so much. I’m nt sure why I like sharing phots so much, and so big, but I just do!! And will keep on doing so fr as long as I can.
Hi Short Poems — a.k.a. Marinela…
Thanks! I’m glad you could view them fine and enjoy.
Ahhh, thanks Alice Audrey. I appreciate honesty. And LOVE your gravatar! how cool. Did you draw it yourself?
Ahhh, Caity — that is just the sweetest comment ever. Thanks. You know I’ll be sharing a lot more of Jannie Land in the many many years to come.
Oh, cool, Mama Z! All I really did was take out some margins and spacing and move my available blog area over, and bigger. And ta-da! Thinking 780 px might be nice!!
Okay Snaggle! Were you joking or serious about going for your left-over KFC while the photos loaded?? I think you are. h yes — I was a total mind-reader!!
I LOVE KFC to a fault. Wish I had some right now. So, if your computer were not so memory-challenged do you think even with dial-up they wuld load and open faster than now?
Jeanne!! Oh, how awesem t have that wide-screen monitor. I’m actually on my little Acer Netbook now — screen very small, but as son as I answer these comments I’ll be off to the BIG library computers to blog-hop. Nice FAST computers too.l And hey — did ya drink your tequila yet??

Well howdy — excellent people.
Luisa… Ooo sunshine to the world, now THAT is nice to hear. Oh, and I can’t wait until I get My Amazing Camera. It’ll be super-max sunshine!!
Hey Debbie, thanks. Well, we’re watching a show called Out Of Control drivers. Pretty wild stuff. Hubby’s at the remote, no chance for Jannie to get it a show edgewise.
Sheila — between my hot photos and your hot business we are burning up The Net today!!
And yeah, thinking if my sidebar goes to 160 px, I could totally .. NO! My pix are BIG enough now. Oh, and I’ve got 4 i..ps to vote from, but YOU deserve it.
Wilma!! That is a really good way to put it — it is nice to see the detail in a photo. Should I go for 780, or rest?
And thanks for voting.
Hey BK — I sure do like to hear bigger is better. I just love them and love sharing. I am quite a visual person.

Hi Jannie .. great big photos .. perhaps too big if you put lots of words with them?! Please tell BB if he’s out of the pool .. that he looks extremely smart in his sailor’s hat, and he must be quite strong holding the paddles for so long – smart bunny!
Great pics .. haven’t they come up well .. bye for now – hugs to all Hils xoxo

Hello Dear Hilary, I am not exactly sure what you mean by your first line. You mean words would be the straws that break teh camel’s back, and adding them to my ginormus pix, mught “break” the Internet?
Oh yes, BB has finished with his pool paddling and is now off mending his rucksack. He tore it escaping over the garden wall last night as that cheeky squirrel Jasmine was chasing him after he caught her in hide-and-seek.
That pic of his is a still of course, he sure is cute, I think!
What do you want to see him with (or as) next?
xxoxox
hugs and such.
On 29 June 2010 at 3:35 pm Hilary said,
Hi Jannie .. wot I ment was: if you’re doing a wordy post – ie an article .. then the pics might be too big ..
but if you’re doing a post like this one .. with some captions to the photos and not many additional paragraphs .. then the large pics are great ..
Is that better?
I’ll have to get BB to translate for us .. if he can spare the time between his sails and paddles??!! hugs form here .. xxooxo

Ahhh, very good my Hilary of the browning meadows. I kind of knew what you meant, but clarification helped know for sure. Good and true point — so I best keep things pithy around here with these ginormous photos!!!
Very much enjoyed your lastest post about the community towns, takes a lot of cooperation eh, to keep all local. And wind and solar powers will hopefully rule the day, one day.
It’s raining here!!
Hugs from here too!

Hi Jannie .. glad it’s clarified! You’re right .. keep it pithy as appropriate.
Glad you enjoyed it .. it was one of those posts where I found so much more information .. expecially about Pz .. then I get muddled tying it together etc .. anyway had to get it done .. and must write some more in the next day or two .. so they are done for the next few weeks. I just have so many ideas that I’d love to do – I need to get organised – once I’m out of here & settled?? then life will be easier.
Rain got here .. well it’s cloudy! Not nearly as nice as the last 10 days .. enjoy today .. hugs H xx
