No more bifocals!
I changed the font here in the entries section to "8pt" rather than "size=1" -- hopefully it will be a lot easier to read from now on! (Unless you have Netscape, and then, it really is your own fault now isn't it? Tee hee!) It's been a frustrating night with Movable Type on Todd's blog. (BIG, HUGE thanks go out to Dawn for all of her help today!) It seems like for every one thing I fixed, two would "break" in its place. We finally figured out the paragraph-tags -- it's something you have to turn off under "edit blog configuration". Did that, got the css up on his site and changed his text to "8pt", and got rid of that pesky extra line between his blog entries and the timestamps. But then...it took out all of the forced breaks in each of his previous entries...so they all just jammed up together in one big paragraph. It was at that point I feared he was going to toss my laptop out into the hot tub, and he said, "switch it ALL back". So I did. And maybe again this weekend... It's best to approach him in situations like this after a big OU win. LOL! So thanks again, Dawn -- you were a tremendous help to both of us today!







Gah! 8pt font is unreadable on Macs (too small for us). We can bump it up, but just thought you'd want to know.

Well, your welcome. I only wish I could of been more of a help. Yay for Robyn and Todd for getting it fixed!

Chel -- do you know of one that makes it easier to read for us and you at the same time? Maybe by px size rather than pt? Not having a Mac...I have no way to check when I publish... Thanks!

11px did the trick for Macs -- whoo hoo!
