    OK!!!!!!!!!
    for what i lack in left brain i sometimes make up for with
    that neverending persistence. i think this is it. i think
    it will be just ok.
    i am going to bring in some wood and make some fried rice and
    and come back to see if this is real or a figment.

    deanna…thanks for hanging in with all this. i never
    DID understand the following thing here…i have tried
    to follow other people in the past, Linda for one, on
    TypePad to no avail.
    but that’s ok….who ever talks to/with me does, follow
    or not…i am ok with that part.
    thanks tho for letting me know that it didn’t work for
    you. as i said, their HELP department is great and
    maybe i can ask about this.

    yes! i think so…seems to have? i will need to fool around with
    some other pics to be sure, this one isn’t the greatest in general,
    but i think yes. i really have no clue much about that whole
    left side??? i don’t understand it, but i’m not going to
    try to understand how the Picasa and the Windows Photo merge…
    that is unless i HAVE to, then…maybe…and i was able to
    make the pic size smaller by going over to that big Compose page,
    not the “quick one” and do the thing over there…
    oh JEEZ all i want to do is sew.
    so, i think it’s all systems go.
    Thank you SOOOOOO much for all your offerings of help…it gave
    me the wherewithall to keep trying….xo

    yes. i think it’s the Picasa version and it’s smaller…
    so…good enough.
    Tomorrow i will try another pic that i know more about
    and see if it repeats and if so, i think i’ll make
    the switch.
    it seems like a very spacious place here tho…the
    old one felt all small and cozy…..

    If you haven’t had a chance, check out some of the other layouts. It’s very easy to preview and to change them back and forth. I bet it will feel more home like when you get links up too.
