I was searching the web for potential courses offered in Victoria for learning Koine Greek and came across your site. I have studied a fair bit on my own but am now looking for some further direction. Do you know of any courses, or classes offered in Victoria?

What about the people coming to the new site, Jordan? They will likely do the same thing, read the posts by scrolling down and they'll completely miss EGINA I, thus missing the archives and defeating your purpose.

Chas has a point about using Flikr serving slower than Blogger.

Personally, I think you should give up Blogger and host a WordPress blog of your own. You're a big-boy now and Google hasn't done anything innovative with Blogger at all. I know you like the fact that its owned by Google and that gives you some comfort in knowing that it will be indexed no matter what, but if you set up a WordPress blog correctly, use the proper meta-data in the head and images, and people are linking into you (which they are) you will have no problem getting indexed.

Yes, that's a lot of images. My rule is to have no photo or other image larger than 25 KB. Quality issues are not that crucial here.

cheers,
Chas

I don't think the masthead is the problem, it's the 150+ large images on this one scrolling page. That plus 270 text entries. It's just... big. My concern is that people wouldn't drill down through archives, and I wanted them to be able to encounter the serendipity about which I receive frequent e-mails.

Hence, volume 2.

If you (a) try condensing the size of some of your graphics (does the masthead have to be 40 KB?), you would be helping those readers with slow connections.

It might possibly help to load frequently used images, like the masthead, into Blogger. I think it serves them up faster than Flickr does.
