Coke. </p> <p> Kat let me know these things were loading slowly for her peeps so I dumbed down the images and rebuilt the widgets.  They’re less than half the file size they were on the first draft and they load in less than three seconds for me.  Faster for everyone else? </p> Mmmm.

I’m glad to hear that someone got this working on WordPress.  We would like to add it to our new blog too and it’s based on WordPress.

The two bloggers (Evangelical Outpost and Family Research Council)not going on the trip are still showing up in the large widget.  Can you try removing those again?

Also, what do you think about pointing to Compassion’s Flickr page at http://www.flickr.com/photos/compassioninternational/.  Keely, our photographer, is planning to upload all of her photos to a set on this Flickr account.

Thanks!

Tom
