You can't be bothered? GREAT. But don't sit there and try to convince me that it's not going to look like crap.

And worse, then tell us all you're going to do X, and ask us if that's "okay" or to give our nod of approval. If we thought the shortcuts were "okay" in the first place, don't you think we would have said that?

The DX is 1200x824. Think about how that will look on THAT. URGh, why the hell did you even ASK us, if you have zero interest in really learning how to fix it? Why???

That's not fair, Hitch. I'm not here just to waste anybody's time. I started this post because I was freaked out by the tiny images (that I now know come from KFX). That was the problem that needed to be overcome. I figured it would be easy.

And yeah, I'm a little intimidated by all that's involved with overcoming it the right way. I'm afraid of screwing up or not knowing if I'll ever fully understand what I'm doing. Plugins. Media queries. You're used to them. To me they're foreign.

A big part of my fear is not (I should get a Kindle Fire HD8 today) knowing what the heck these images will look like on anything other than my Kindle Touch 7.

Honestly, without knowing, it seems like 400X600 should look good on DX's 1200X824 screen. That's the way it seems to me. You know better because you've seen it.

I'll try Slowsmile's plugin. It sounds cool. If you think I can handle it, I'm sure I can.
