I changed
themes just now to recognize the baby-it's-coooooooooold-outside weather;
changed fonts as well. This blogservice is even more tweakable than it lets on —
I'm not given a choice of fonts and colors thereof (though at least bold,
italic, and underline settings are available)… so for now I
pre-write my entry in Word, and tweak the paragraph spacing, font size and
color, and other goodies while tapping it all out, and then cut 'n paste to
here…
… and
I get my paragraphs chopped up. And then, viola (much like the one my
daughter used to play): with that change in themes, the paragraph-spacing in my
earlier postings has also been killed. Aaargh! Well, I'll keep
tweaking it. And, yes, I'm perhaps a bit too esthetically demanding about how
my words are presented here. Too bad; I'm going for a particular look (which
will also be fluid), and would like to be able to make it work the way it ought
to. I don't give up, either.
Stressed: I am not
faulting WordPress on this; there are some absolutely awesome-looking blogs on
WordPress, so I know that all this and more can be done very nicely; I'm just
beginning to find my way. I'll take credit for the words, lousy or good, and
the stupid formatting bobbles; WordPress gets the credit for allowing me to put
it all out there. Over time I'll embed more pictures (not videos or music;
those I'll just hyperlink — gotta conserve the MB allotment); if it gets futzed
in the process of the regular rearrangements… well, content first, spiff
second.
Later: Nope; juggling
the paragraphs doesn't space 'em the way I want them; let's try another theme.
The snowy pines were nice, yes; but... sorry. Buenos nachos!
And again: Change of
theme ("presentation"), then. This one looks classic, and will do for
a while. Ta!
