Photo Album Magnifier: The last change to the TP Photo Album changed images to be displayed on the page rather than in a popup. This meant that images would often be displayed smaller than they actually are - harder to see folks in large group shots, for example.
SO, I wrote a little magnifier applet for use on the TP Photo Album. When you see the magnifier icon (shown right) in the top right corner of an image, you can click it to reload the image with the magnifier activated. You can move the magnified window around the image to see more detail. Resize the magnified window: left-click-hold and drag the mouse left or right. Added: 02-23-10
Improved Calendar Display: The TP Calendar will no longer display any past event listings for the current month unless you choose to see them. To see past events for the current month, you can click the Include this month's past events link above the event listings. You can then turn off the display of past events in the current month with the Hide this month's past events link. Months other than the current month are unchanged. Added: 1-31-10
