    How To signatures, please
    I'd very much like the "How To"s to be signed so there could be some way to give feedback to the author directly. Since the gallery isn't really his, just leaving a comment doesn't really work and it may also be more public than appropriate.

    And these things are a lot of work, I think the author deserves credit.
    If not now, when?

    That's fine, Rutt. Will take care of it. You've been around long enough to know, not to start new threads when you can post to one that exists :D

    I moved it here.

    And, I guess you didn't see my smiley face up there, either.

    FWIW, all the book reviews have an author.

    Some of the tutes have them already, too.

    and many of the others. I'm finishing the attribution now.

    Ah, lighten up I don't always find it obvious what you'll want. On the whole, I think I do as much of the work as I can do. And make the best gueses I can where to put things. Move them if you want, but please don't complain if my mind reading isn't perfect.

    And you didn't read mine between the lines. I guess it was black on a black background.

    My pleasure.

    Can I make one nitpick, though? Whats up with the bold fonts in the review galleries? When it was journal style in my gallery, the captions were nice and normal, now they're all bold and harder to read.

    Cool changes.

    I've been watching them coming for awhile as you've been making them. Seemed like there were changes - then things went back to original - then back to newer versions of control bar etc. Might be my imagination.

    I like "In Da House" :):

    Great tutorials and other stuff.

    Thanks for the appreciated efforts.

    Hmmm.

    If you recall, I did some major changes to my journal style - I had at one point forgotten to close a bold tag, and all my journal entries were bold. However, that is now fixed, I have non-bold entries, and all photos lined up on the left via CSS customization. But I don't recall every specifying non-bold fonts. The Crumpler review looked "my way" when I made it up on my site, but when moved to the dgrin gallery, its now controlled by the dgrin style. So journal style over there is back to alternating left/right alignment and the font is now bold. its the same for USair's Kata review - bold fonts.

    So its not me this time, I think. headscratch.gif

    Is bold font just the norm for journal style?

    I'm on FF 1.5 (MacOS)

    It's not a big deal, just kinda hard to read (IMO).

    Much better. I mainly didn't like it because a couple of the captions got bigger than the photo and started to wrap underneath.

    mmmm mmm mmm. The pictured variety is the hefeweissen - quite tasty. Not as good as Harpoon's UFO, but still quite good. (and of course, neither is as good as the weiss beers I came to love on my trip to Western Austria 2 years ago).

    Nice use of props though, eh? Sadly, when SB800 and 70-200 arrive, I'll have less room for my pint glass and refreshment.
