Urk - Huh?

If you're new around these parts, I just want to say how much I appreciate your dropping by! Oh, and you may want to subscribe to my feed. Thanks, and a tip o' the hat to ya!

Well, this is weird. I’m adding some widgets to the template, and now the text size has gone bonkers over the center and right side columns. The text should like like that in the left column. Hmmph.

Anybody have a clue how to fix that?

UPDATE

As my grandpa used to say (he was a carpenter), “A good carpenter always blames his tools.”

I’ve been tinkering with all the widgets on both sidebars, and apparently the one that displays the “Quote of the Day” somehow affects text sizes and justification for all the rest! Don’t know how or why. Thank goodness for the Wordpress toolbox*! Looks like everything is back to where it belongs.

*In case you didn’t know, Wordpress installation includes a toolbox - but it contains nothing but eleven sizes of hammers. You just pick the appropriate size and start whacking. Works, too.

You know, it would just be absolutely finer than a frogs hair if you would subscribe to my RSS feed!

    I do not see any problems with the text size. You must have fixed the problem, no?

    No, Allen, it still looks “off” to me. The text in the center and right columns are larger than the text in the left column. Like it’s all been set to “h2″ size. Can’t figure it out.

    When I was in the Air Force we used to say if all else fails, read the directions. If it still doesn’t work, get a bigger hammer. It’s good of the folks at Wordpress to give you so many different hammer sizes. :-)

    Yep, couldn’t have done it without that! Thanks for dropping by, Rick!

    Wow! Karin, I looked this up on Google Earth and now I remember actually visiting the town of Urk in 1970! My family and I lived in the Hague for six months and we drove all over the Netherlands whenever we could. Lot’s of fun, and what a wonderful place! I’ve always wanted to go back and visit again. Heck, I wouldn’t mind it if my company were to transfer me there for a few years!

    Thanks for jogging the ol’ memory cells loose, Karin!

    Always glad to be of ’service’ ;-)
