Had fun recreating my logo in Photoshop after many years of it being in Indesign. Photoshops use of type is close to being acceptable for this now. The only problem I had was when rotating the ‘your’ 90 degrees to vertical, it wasn’t then possible to edit the text. Did some reading also on creating small text items for the web … difficult area as as soon as you save as small jpegs the text goes mushy. Ended up using the save to web tool with the highest quality settings. Not quite as crisp as some I’ve seen, but not bad. Think I need to do a bit more work on this subject though.

W3C validation

Got all my recent sites passing W3C validation … to find that the Google ads code I am running, (not sure why as I have made only $7), doesn’t pass w3c validation, so I don’t get that green tick. Hmmmph.
