I can't read his chicken scratch."

That's still an improvement on mine.

I teach journalism and language courses, so I definitely enjoy the ability to just have my students type everything for me. It is bad enough trying to decipher what look like hieroglyphics when I ask them to show me their notes..

Penmanship is a lost art, I really enjoy reading something written by someone who can still write in proper cursive.

Ok, some new colors and such, working on a solution for the ginormous background image this weekend, I think I have an idea for it though.

Still not as easy to read as it is before the background pics load, and the different colors of the background pic make the borders between the updates slightly more difficult to notice. But the grey is better than yellow.

Wondering if a larger font size might look better, it seems small to me.

Size looks fine to me. I usually prefer smaller fonts, but that font doesn't seem overly large or small.

The "h" might be a little wonky, but I guess that's what I get for lack of practice.

My best friend had really good cursive handwriting. Of course, he's also a terrible typist.

Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread

Well, to be fair, I don't just have poor penmanship, my hands are pretty poor in general. Sure, they're good at pressing buttons on keyboards and gamepads; but if I try to freehand anything? I'm screwed. This is why I only ever got into snap together models; nothing else was easy enough for my hands to handle.

It is coming along nicely, the little changes are making a difference. For me, I do not have a problem reading any of the text. The background could be more opaque, perhaps putting a translucent layer of white over that image would help create more contrast between that and the text. If you would like me to do that, you can always send me the image

To Feba: Have you ever wondered that the reason your hands are so limited is because you always put a limit to what they could do?

No. I've done plenty of art, hobbies (again, modeling and the like), writing, and so on. They just aren't good at it.

Sociology is all about finding new reasons to dislike people en masse. If anything, you are probably not cynical enough for sociology.

cynical enough

Feba! I need you to tutor me!
