Sorry about that, y’all

Update: Here are the pix -

 

I’m afraid we had to kill NMC’s Scruggs-signs post before it killed folo and dogstuff, y’all. My apologies for disappearing your comments there, but riddenword, using cyber-terms beyond my sure grasp, explained that the file-size of the two photos was many times what the server needed to be dealing with, and some code-miscommunication between his computer and NMC’s (which had transferred them to folo) was thwarting his attempts to resize them.

So until the two guys can get together and redo the works to get these pix back on the blog in a manageable size, we’ll be bereft of them. I’m sorry but there was no way to save the comments separate from the post itself.

    jsh, late last night, NC posted a couple of fresh pix from Ole Miss campus — the wall of the music building where “Scruggs Hall” had just been removed and a sign outside ID’ing the building as “Dickie and Dianne Scruggs Hall, David H. Nutt Auditorium, [etc., etc.].”

    But the file sizes of these photos were so huge, they were fixing to kill the blog AND dogstuff’s site every time somebody reloaded the page.

    So we gotta get ‘em resized from something over a megabyte apiece to a few kilobytes apiece. (Snort, betcha never expected ME to be throwing around those terms so casually, didja? Heh.)

    I’ll also try and get the resized versions

    “Megabytes” and “kilobytes”? We’ve come a long way from “sweet potatoes” and “corn on the ground.”
