Here it is, 2011, still waiting for basic web competency. My bishop has asked me to add my picture to my profile on the new LDS ward website. If I could find where this can be done, in between, the multiple site time-outs, that would be great.

I swear, sometimes it feels like this is one step above dancing banana gifs and 8-bit website theme music.

I was able to finally edit my profile. The problem, I think, is that the servers were overloaded. I'm sure the church runs their capacity to the ragged edge, meaning that at peak times, like Saturday evenings and Sunday evenings, they are essentially maxed out, or above max.

Back a few years ago, the sites were unuseable at such times.

If the sites aren't available when people need them, then they are essentially useless. I don't need the site at Tuesday 6am, thank you very much.
