I really want to look at this, because it looks like it's exactly what I need, but it won't display properly on my computer. The picture shrinks down to a little column on the left side of the screen once the page loads. I tried saving it as a picture and then zooming in, but that cut off a lot of text at the right edge and was hard to read. Do you know how I could fix my computer so it will display this properly?

Yes.
Open it in the browser. Once it has shrunk automatically, move your mouse over the photo and hold it still for a few seconds, you'll see that a little icon appears on the bottom right of the photo with exapding arrows pictured on it, now, move the mouse ot it and click on it and the photo will be displayed correctly.
We'll bundle articles in a webpage with fixed dimensions next time so this annoying problem does not occur anymore.
Sorry for the late answer.

seriously, it's very interesting to read and I'm sure for a lot of people it will come in handy.
