Testing of new layout

I've changed my layout completely. Mostly because I messed up the old layout and it just seemed easier to pick a new template! haha I've (re)discovered a downside of Blogger - my photos were linked to a picasa web album that I deleted, not realizing that would affect past entries. And so, there are now many old entries with missing photos. Oops. I don't know why the photos weren't embedded as permanent fixtures in the blog...it's a mystery to me. I was going to resurrect my old SlowTrav blog but I'm unable to access it (a report's been filed...apparently it's not a priority.) So I'm in blog limbo...still trying to decide which platform to use if ever I'm able to migrate my ST blog elsewhere. Maybe I'll try wordpress...
