Could you put a bit of this under a cut and get rid of the picture? Actually getting rid of the picture might take care of the cut issue.

ETA: Yup, think I fixed it.

Sorry, it seems to show up a normal 10-12 point, posted on Chrome, at least. What browser are you using?

I just edited the whole thing, I hope it's more readable now?
