Hello to all you #frothers
Thought I'd take the liberty of starting us a nice new thread as the other is getting rather full. :)

Looking good Smile

Thanks

I cannot get a big pic, it will only work if tiled.

Or should I replace with a different pic?

KateMiddIeton · 05/12/2011 12:49

I think a different pic would be good instead of tiling.

Maybe Font could do some bubbles that would work being tiled?

MmeLindor. · 05/12/2011 12:52

Have used a frothy water scene that was on the standard pics.

Hi how do I go about submitting my blog post? Have got a gmail account and am following the blog currently.

KateMiddIeton · 05/12/2011 13:00

It looks like brush strokes on my screen. Better than graffiti though I think.

I can't upload the image to Facebook because it's too small. It keeps going blurry. Will wait for Font I think

KateMiddIeton · 05/12/2011 13:01

I am doing a lot of thinking Blush

KateMiddIeton · 05/12/2011 13:04

I really like the grey on that background. I think it looks good with the orange.

Now, what to do with Twitter...

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 05/12/2011 13:08

Oh, great job guys!

Re: frothers, hunty okay'd it but yes, would hate to be hurting people also. I think we are extremely clear that we don't mean it in that sense at all, but we can always debate it again if the objectors want to come and say hi.

Peachy · 05/12/2011 13:10

TeWi excellent post thank you- so different to the response people often get when raising issues.

KateMiddIeton · 05/12/2011 13:12

Could you have a look at the Twitter page and let me know what you think please?

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 05/12/2011 13:17

Twitter looks good too! The mini logo looks great.

The blog logo is bothering me slightly, I think the picture needs cropping and then reloading to make it align with the text? What does everyone else think?

MmeLindor. · 05/12/2011 13:20

I like it Kate, but think it would be even better if we could get blog back ground and Twitter background the same.

Visual recognition is very important, I think.

Maybe Font can think of something.

MmeLindor. · 05/12/2011 13:20

I can try that, Te. But it might be fiddly.

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 05/12/2011 13:22

Yes, I did have a look through the code to see if I could centrally align the logo from there (and cheat) but it's really messy. Need to print it out and have a good look through, probably easier to try fiddling with the picture first!

KateMiddIeton · 05/12/2011 13:23

Yes I agree. With all points.

Now to sort out Hully...

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 05/12/2011 13:26

Oh yes, Hully... can you access any of the blogspot blogs?

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 05/12/2011 13:26

what's the file name for the logo?

MmeLindor. · 05/12/2011 13:28

The file name? Dunno. I uploaded from my pc.

KateMiddIeton · 05/12/2011 13:31

No she can't. I've just resent the invite. Then I will hold her hand and whisper encouraging words in her ear.

Would it help if I made the frothy photo bigger? If you tell me what size in pixels I can make it bigger. I've just worked out how.

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 05/12/2011 13:31

I think google might have renamed it. bah.

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 05/12/2011 13:34

Okay - how does that look?

TeWiharaMeriKirihimete · 05/12/2011 13:35

the logo i mean

KateMiddIeton · 05/12/2011 13:37

I like. Would anybody mind if I re-wrote the blurb underneath? I want to get in a short, punchy summary and the links.

CardyMow · 05/12/2011 13:39

I didn't think 'frothers' was offensive in this context - We are frothing with rage and indignation at the Government cuts.

Since my diagnosis of epilepsy 8 years ago, I have been called many things - Breakdancer, R*d, S*z, and many others, but I have never been called a frother.

To all the people out there with epilepsy, and those caring for people with epilepsy - we do not mean anything offensive. That was not our intention at all!

As KateMiddIeton says, I personally find 'epileptic' more offensive as it reduces me to my condition, rather than showing all the different facets of who I am.
