(i hope it’s ginormous enough for the theme: Big.)
[this is not to glamorize any kind of armada (i don’t like wars) — but World War II was a just war. my photo-post for the WordPress theme is a homage to the heroes of that war.]

here’s the WordPress sample photo of the theme: “Big”
“a GIANT mortadella in the grocery store. It must have been 10 feet long.” -photo on the right and text by Sara Rosso of WordPress.
wait a few seconds to pixelize; while waiting… here are the notes: the theme is “Happy”, general enough, but the technical requirement is new: you have to use the new program called “Gallery” in WordPress, see Weekly Photo Challenge: Happy.This new tool, according to WordPress, was announced yesterday but i didn’t read it. i didn’t know where it was, but i found it after 20 minutes of…looking at all the prompts and symbols… there it was! on the topmost margin of the window post, labelled “Gallery”. that’s been there since the inception of WordPress or since WordPress changed format a couple of years ago, WordPress added new features within it that allow the user to use a multi-photo format. I learned something new today. The program does the layout for you. (my “talkies”, annotation, below the Gallery.)… while typing this, i realized that my first photo for the gallery — Myra at the Museum of Modern Art in New York — is… an art gallery. Myra sent this photo today. What are the odds…
Wordpress Weekly Photo Challenge: Happy
Posing beside an original Marc Chagall and… all life and all expression: Everything is “modern art” if it makes you smile… dream… wonder… or turn your head counter-clockwise, close one eye, and ask “What’s that all about”
