You wrapped! Jaysus, I looked at the steps and sure am glad there is a plug-in. I think I will give the plug-in a go.

If you want a drop cap, visit my blog and steal the code from each post. I just save it as a draft and copy and paste it into each post.

Ok, so I get where Liz is at on the coder = anal retentive. But she must be ed-u-macated too, because I had to whip out the Webster on “pedantic”.

Piggy-backing on your confession - Heat n Bond is my best friend.

JENNY! Oh - I am so happy to see you have WRAPPED! I was worried about all those lonely isolated images I was seeing on wordpress.com blogs.

Note : if you are self hosted you can just use a plug-in as explained in my post. BUT actually getting into some HTML is no bad thing anyway. So stuff the plug-in and get HTMLing. At last. I am a proud mother.

PS - Jenny - I checked your ‘code’ (doesn’t that make you feel like a programmer!), and it is perfect - no mistakes. Only thing I would suggest is to go back in and change the title to something WITHOUT an apostrophe for now. When a visitor to your site hovers their cursor over your image the “I don’t sew message” that comes up has personal issues with the apostrophe. Try it and see. There is a special may to avoid this happening but for now, just change the message to “I do NOT sew” or something without an apostrophe.

PPS - I am not ill. You have to be this pedantic to be a coder.

The new site looks awesome! You can’t sew, but at least you married into great web design. You can still be a mom, I decree.
