Undergoing MyBlogLog Verification

What exactly is a photograph?

This image from my site at DeviantArt used to qualify, but some tweaking later, I’m not sure that it still does. (The image links back to my gallery on that site).

Rethinking this blog

Looking at that first post, and then taking a look at the blog I ended up uploading elsewhere (the one that was going to occupy this space), I think that you can see what the problem would have been – the print is small. Imagine going through a medium length essay like this. Yet, as WordPress itself explains, one doesn’t have the option to increase text size, and the attempt to circumvent that lack of an option will tend to leave one with one line of text overlapping the next.

Yes, this was a very foolish oversight on the part of the developers, who apparently never thought about the possibility of anybody over thirty reading a blog, but I do know that much of my readership falls well into that category (gosh, do people live that long), and so I have to think about that. At least one person I can think of seems to have circumvented the problem by redoing the CSS, but I don’t have the time or the patience with the subject matter needed to learn CSS at this time, so what, as somebody who’d like to use this service without torturing his readers, should I do?

Craft my material to meet the quirks of this blog. What I’ll have here will be material that emphasises visual content and keeps text to a minimum. I am playing around with photography and have set up a flickr membership, so maybe that should suggest a good use for this blog.

Return to Your Ring

If you entered my sites and groups from a webring via Joseph Dunphy’s Myopic Midnight Special or its homepage on Atspace, you should see a navbar for your ring below. If you don’t, that’s probably because either Webring.com has merged some more rings or because you entered my sites somewhere else; in either case, just go to the ring return page for this site and you should find that your problems are over.

At least, the Webring.com related ones.

[No ring memberships, yet. More later, when there is enough content present to justify a ring application]
