Oh, forget the tropical colors. They’re too wimpy.
Here I am back at the webpaint store, but the redecorating is almost done.
VACCC — VisiBone Anglo-Centric Color Code
Oh, I don’t know, too many choices, maybe I’d better keep shopping.
There’s still a bit more tinkering with fonts. I love the look of Garamond font for the posts, but need a more readable italic.
It is to sigh.
Guess I’ll trudge back to the default standbys – Georgia and Palatino.
I managed somehow to install Blogroll on my own but it looks crappy. Hey, guys, it’s not as simple as clicking a link and installing a bit of code – the background gets hosed if you don’t know what you’re doing.
Which I don’t.
But at least I remembered to add the div and sidetitle tags in the index, since I’d seen David do that before… and figured out how to at least get the blogroll to adhere to the basic style of the rest of the side. I have to tinker a bit more, I don’t understand why the border and side don’t extend to the bottom in a predictable way. But I’ll figger it out, and at least for now it looks a bit more consistent.
Except for the italics. I have to figure out where that’s coming from. ‘Cause it’s not that readable, and it’s out of synch with everything else. It may be coming from Blogrolling’s preferences screen.
Italics. Here we are again. This post appears to be disappearing up its own backside.
Oh yeah, I love Garamond!
i’m sorry, i posted that twice. But you’re right, the italic of garamond is kinda stinky. Oh well, true love can’t always be perfect. One must accept the imperfections.
It’s old fashioned and elegant, yet “friendly-like” somehow. I use it on the church website I maintain, but it won’t work over here with all the italic I use in the “travel journal” thing in September.
Yikes, two things I’ve been putting off, I’d much rather gab about Garamond. Oh, well.
Thanks for your comments (all of them)!
