Latent Thoughts

I got the award as well and though appreciate the sentiment, also refused to pass it along. My recommends are on my blogroll, period. And I don't understand what a "real" blogger is. And what Marie Antoinette has to do with it. Plus awards should be given by the many to the few, if one person gives 7, and so on, everyone eventually gets one, which subverts the very idea behind an award.
I would agree that Sheria should get the Mme de Stael Award for blogging, and I'll give you the Simone de Beauvoir Award. And neither of you have to share it.

I assumed that the Marie Antinotte award was a tongue in cheek reference to how out of touch she was with the masses or the common man, you know "If they can't eat bread, let them eat cake". As far as the font, it seems fine to me, except you have a comment cheese-melt thing going on that the bottom of this entry. Don't know what that's about.

I had the same problem with the font, here's what you do. Go to Customize that little bar on top of your blog holds.

Then go to layout.

On Layout there should be a button for fonts and colors. Go there.

Then the one that says Text Font Click it. You will be given a sliding scale of bigger, smaller. You can also change the main general font type if you have an over all preference.

Hit Save...otherwise you will wonder what happened and why it didn't work *winks*, oh yeah, I'm just practicing being a smart aleck before Skye gets here. She still takes the room with her commentry....

Hope this helps. Like I said the Indigo Virus is a great thing to catch. Sheria is another of those awesome writers, not unlike yourself. (Hugs)Indigo

Congrats on your award:)

I don't care much for our size selection either. Oh well, it's still better than AOL <<<--- only my opinion. (((HUGS))) *M*

I DO read Sheria, thanks to Indigo, and all three of you are remarkable writers!

I couldn't get comfortable with the font size, either. When I had it a little bigger, it really bothered me. I felt like I was reading a first grade primer. Although the smaller size is almost a little too small, I prefer it over the next larger. I find your font very readable.

Best,
Beth

You are quite thought provoking yourself as well and I appreciate your kindness.
I am not quite sure? Was Fred really insinuating those whom won this award might too be out of touch with the masses or common man? ; )
I always enjoy my time spent indulging here within your pages and am looking forward to more frequency.

I went to that customize page and played around with all kinds of fonts, colors and sizes, but Indigo's right, be sure to hit "save" when you find a look you like.
Congratulations on your Marie Antoinette Award!

Rebecca Anne,
You are an awesome writer. I appreciate that you share your talents with us. You deserve any award that is bestowed upon you.
Good luck on your font change.
Smiles,
David

to be honest, i never EXPECTED to get this award, and especially not in the same category as YOU.

wonderful pick, i just added her to my reader :]

Rebecca...I start each day looking at my own blog and then Elisabeths,and yours always comes next..I enjoy your writings and thoughts...a ray of sunshine...keep it going.

You can't find a "happy medium"? Have you tried at the local psychic's business?

Ok, sorry, I'm leaving now:)

I tend to pass on awards like that to "everyone" - it just doesn't seem fair otherwise.

I love Ray Bradbury's work. One of my favorites is "Something Wicked This Way Comes."

Your font size works well for me and I'm staring through tri-focals.

Thanks for the kind words; right back at you.

Regardless of the root of the award, I'm always happy to see someone recognize the great writing that a select few share with the rest of us.

Nothing wrong with being a rule-breaker now and then, right?

Rebecca, I am having a struggle with awards also.

You deserve any and all awards you receive...you are a fabulous writer.
