I haven&#039;t been working on it in the last couple of days, but I intend to go back to it soon, and I will probably take the font size down a notch and narrow the column a bit to compensate.  I&#039;ll be experimenting with it.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Cornflour:

They got unblocked because I found them and unblocked them.  Sometimes, after that, the spam filter learns not to block someone.  I&#039;m sorry to hear the spam filter there hasn&#039;t learned yet. I&#039;ll keep unblocking them and then hopefully the problem will go away.  Let me know if you continue to have problems.

Also, I got rid of comment preview because it wasn&#039;t working and I thought maybe it&#039;s the culprit.  We&#039;ll see.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t have time to examine the new format in detail, but will say that the new font is definitely too big for my taste. I don&#039;t think it&#039;s anything freakish in the browsers. Looks exactly the same in Opera (my usual) and Chrome, and typing a few lines into a word processing file in 16pt is about the same size. In other words, I clearly find 16pt to be too large. It results in less text on screen at any point. A matter of personal preference of course but the type size on the existing blog is fine for me, about optimal for the size-amount tradeoff.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Reading comments I looked at your new site and your old, back and forth a few times and the line length on the new might be a bit too long and the font size might be a bit big.

					<description><![CDATA[Julia:

That seems odd.  It doesn&#039;t do that for me at all. I&#039;m wondering whether it has to do with your settings.  What browser do you use--Chrome, Firefox, what?  Do you have it in a very large format?  Have you tried making the whole thing smaller and seeing how it displays?

It seems that you&#039;re seeing it in something like the format for a cellphone, where the photo of me with the apple and the sidebar are pushed to the bottom.  I&#039;m not sure whether that&#039;s what you&#039;re describing, though.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I like or am neutral about most things on the new blog.  One thing I don&#039;t really care for is the top image covers the top half of my screen (I&#039;m on a laptop.)

Also - your picture goes to the bottom of the page.  

I like being able to start reading right away.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;b&gt; But now that the blog has a nifty “comment edit” feature, I’m not sure anyone cares so much about the preview anymore. I’d rather have both, and I’ll keep trying, but it may not be possible. &lt;/b&gt;

As long as you permit plenty of edits, yes. DISQUS has no previews, which means that you have to EDIT if you don&#039;t like something you have written. Unfortunately, if you have more than one or two EDITs, DISQUS will send your comment to the Spam folder, where it will most likely die, as very few blogs actually check the folder for otherwise good comments.

I like your new sans serif font and font size.

I have used your blog to preview comments on other blogs that do not have the PREVIEW function.]]></description>
