It looks like I’ll be the first to post a blog here with a graphic. So, here it (the graphic) is – a picture of my dog, "Greta". This blog site won't let you adjust image sizes. She’s a miniature Schnauzer. That’s about as much exhibitionism as I can muster today. Hope this doesn’t come back to haunt me next time I’m applying for a job or going to a new school.
On the subject of dogs, here’s one of the dogs in my website project. The whole project is about dogs. Bridie is a Briard. There isn’t much choice of typefaces or other style elements here, but in my website, my client wants the thing done in a new typeface, Sherwood. In this blog site, looks like the logical choice is either Verdana or Georgia, according to the WSG. Or is it? Later, he says it's Times New Roman. How about these paragraph separations? But, the style reading doesn’t cover what to do when you have to please the customer. My website client wants it in Sherwood to match his other sites. He even supplied the font. So, I’m looking for comments here, both about the pictures and the style. Oops! Can't get the image (Bridie, the other dog). It won't even paste. When all this stuff works, it's great. But, when something goes wrong or it's beyond your expertise, your time gets spent fast. We have to be pseudo-techies as well as practice our real craft of writing or teaching.
As for the picture of Bridie - you'll see it in the presentation of my web project. Hope you don't think I was flaming or anything because I didn't mean to.
p.s. That failure to include the second picture wasn't planned.

I very much enjoyed the picture of your puppy. Cute. I'm not trying to burst your bubble but I also posted an extranaeous picture a few weeks back. It wasn't all that relevant to my post, but I felt like a visual was necessary and fun. Sometimes having fun is the sole reason for blogging, right?
