We went apple picking at an orchard over the weekend and I took this awesome picture of Emily. This is what’s on my desktop now. Isn’t she cute?

    Anybody have any idea why I’m not getting photos on blogspot (blogger) sites? All I get is the little square with a question mark in it. All other sites (such as this one) are working just fine. I’ve tried looking at these blogs in Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer (on the Windows side of my MacBook), but do not get photos or logos on any of them. I spoke to someone at Apple, and they didn’t know what was causing the problem. I’m frustrated, because I used to get all these photos on all sites. I don’t know what caused the change, except going to Kansas City and back with my MacBook.

    Thanks guys for the kind words about the pic. It actually wasn’t that difficult to do in Photoshop. I’ll maybe throw together a tutorial for how to do it for anyone who is interested.
