I had planned to use these images in a self mocking attempt at humor for my birthday last Monday. Unfortunately, I was so depressed by the time Monday rolled around that they didn’t seem the least bit funny to me. And of course, the week did not get any better…
But hey, I’m feeling much better today and I’m eager to try out some of the new media features WordPress recently announced…

It’s so cool that I can now attach all the images for a post to that post and still have so many options for how they are displayed! Now if only WordPress can allow for true gallery centering and make the “columns” option actually work. I had to split the shortcodes for these galleries into separate two-image segments.

Thanks Jo! Good luck with the new features. I like what they’ve done but I try to remember that WordPress operates on a modified F.O.R.D. principle – Fix Or Repair Daily, but don’t bother to give any advance notice! 😆
