Comments on: New digs http://humblemusings.com/archives/2007/10/02/new-digs/ Family life commentary by Amy Scott.

Er, I mean Valerie.</blockquote> Thanks, Jeana! I really am pleased that everyone seems to enjoy it so much. But, in the main, the credit goes to Amy. She was the one who chose the dominant colors, photos, and basic structure. My job was to figure out how to make it all go together in a way that was satisfactory to her (and she really does tell it like it is - for which I'm very thankful, it allowed me to get the job done cleaner and quicker).

Looks great, Amy! Er, I mean Valerie.

So I had verified that Amy's design looked good in Firefox both in my Windows XP and Vista computers. I am not certain what FF feed reader you might be reading blog posts through. On one of my FF installations, if I click on the Subscribe button, it brings up a cleanly-rendered "feed" page, with summaries (Edit: Well, not actually summaries, just the first few lines) of Amy's latest posts. All apostrophes and quotes show up as they should. Are you using a feed-reader plug-in for FF? I really am interested, and would like to help if at all possible. :biggrin_wp: Hey! I had no idea you were going to post that, Amy! :embarrassed_ee: :smile_ee:

It’s when robots leave comments on your site, linking to their trash.

Am I stuck with this for my using Firefox?

Is this a firefox feed??

I come for the content and the packaging is just a bonus anyway! Very nice new look - In IE it’s like rich chocolate milk and cheap dollar store cover girl foundation, but somehow it works!
