Hello world!

Coming to you almost live on WordPress, because one host ought to be enough for anyone. Even cooler, it’s all written in PHP; no Javascript needed.

Conversion from Blogger was surprisingly easy. Now to customize it — because I really dislike the present look [i.e. the default template of the then current version]. How do I undo whatever makes class storycontent look compressed, when I can’t find storycontent in the CSS file?

I also wonder if I can turn off “smart” punctuation, which, in my default font, messes up the line spacing.

I’ll also have to go through the archives and remove all the line breaks that I put in to make the source more legible. sigh

    I believe that the problem with the text spacing in the story content is the font. The font selection in the CSS starts with a Mac-font (Lucida Grande) whose TTF equivalent is, well, pretty sad. I’d suggest changing the order to put Verdana first. Maybe some Mac-person can suggest whether that will generally make Macs look yucky or not.

    Thanks but I’d much rather not specify a font at all. Can I avoid it?

    Later: As perhaps you can see, I found and stripped the offending code. It was not in storycontent (which is undefined) but in the default definition of p.
