Zoom!!!

New title image.  Yay!  For sake of side-by-side comparison:

You may notice that the actual title and description are text elements of this webpage, not a part of the png/jpg image.  Though this makes composition a little more challenging, it's better for everyone in the long-run.  Search engines and screen-readers can't read text inside image files, they can only read what's in html code.

Handy tip: if you need to break the title or description in half, use the tag <br /> where you want the split to be.  Html code, allowing people to defy the default formatting since... I don't actually know when.  For other handy symbols that seem to break when punched into the blogger textbox, here's a nifty list of html codes that will make them stay put.

Earworm of the Day:  Oh, you're so going to hate me for this one... Larger Than Life by the Backstreet Boys.  I linked to the actual music video because even if the song is two decades past run into the ground, the choreography is still decent.
