I have a netflix account. My queue is filled with martial arts movies that my dad wants to see. I have no idea what to watch. Any recommendations?

1) I make a layout that I am happy with.

2) I start making thumbnails of my work. This is where things start to go downhill. I HATE MAKING THUMBNAILS AND I DON’T KNOW WHY I DO IT… I JUST DO. AND IT TAKES ME FOREVER.

3) Meanwhile, I’m not saving my work as little jpegs. This means that I’ve got to open up all the files AGAIN and resize them when I could’ve done it before.

4) Making pages for each of the projects is also time consuming. I know there’s an easier way with PHP, but I like making things difficult for myself. (Plus, the last time I tried it, it didn’t “click” with the layout I had planned.) This also takes forever because I tend to hit “Save” instead of “Save As” and then I’ve got to write stuff over again.

5) By the time I’m close to the finish line, I’m already sick of the layout.

I’ve got to come up with a better system for this…
