That may be true, but Smashing Magazine would need to change the page title of the article then. That's where my title is being pulled from.

Web Creative is a tumblelog, it does not provide articles but links to articles and other content.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
"A tumblelog is a variation of a blog that favors short-form, mixed-media posts over the longer editorial posts frequently associated with blogging. Common post formats found on tumblelogs include links, photos, quotes, dialogues, and video. Unlike blogs, tumblelogs are frequently used to share the author's creations, discoveries, or experiences while providing little or no commentary."

This is a link to the unmatched style article with a teaser image - nothing is ripped - if you click on either the image itself or the actual link below it you will be taken to the unmatchedstyle.com article.

My site is a tumble log that links to articles and other websites in this way as a helpful resource - it does not present information as it's own and have never claimed too.

It's a great concept isn't it. It is a campaign that is running in Thailand, but I think they should do it here too.

Hi Bill, not at all.

As I post all the links to my website and the Twitterfeed (I am presuming you came through it?) is auto generated by my site's RSS feed, it means the link from Twitter takes you here first. You have to click the above link to get to the article. Sorry if it is confusing. I am going to look at a better way to do this moving forward.

Take care,

Leeanne

Hey Andy, no worries. You have a great site, and I'm sorry I didn't come across it sooner. Looking forward to future reviews. I'll be buying the Paul Rand book base don your most recent one :)

Hi, the Twitter stream you are using to find the links I provide is an auto feed of my site's RSS, hence being directed here first.

Hi Paul, because I post these links to my site, if you are accessing them via the Twitter stream then the reason it goes to my site first is because the Twitter stream is an automatic grab of my site's RSS feed.

I think about you everyday. This morning I was remembering wading through the snow in Wolfville with icicles in our hair, which may have been the day we thought it was a good idea for me to cut your hair with kitchen scissors. And the night your neighbour called the cops thinking you were having a party and it was just me and you very, very drunk with Guns n' Roses blasting. These are the things I remember. And that you always had faith in me, you never let me down, you were always patient, always kind, and that every single person who met you liked you instantly and liked me because obviously there must be something good about me if you thought I was so great and believed in me so unquestionably.

I miss you.

I'm interested to see what other industry bods think on this.

Sorry about that guys. The username and password was unintentional. It should be downloadable now!

Hi Kristy,

Thanks so much for remembering Seth and for posting at his site. Yes, I am so very sad to tell you that you have the right person. After you left Bermuda he moved to Canada himself for several years , he also lived in Ireland and the US. He never lost his love for metal (and would be happy to hear you say he was the one who introduced you to it!) and became a very accomplished guitarist. He was a Web Programmer and wrote several successful web software applications - which is how he made his living. He remained the great guy you remember and would have been surprised that you remembered him so well because he always underestimated just how much of an impact he had on people. Thanks again for your message - I think that this picture may be how you remember him http://tinyurl.com/6m6gmr

Kind Regards, Leeanne

If I keep holding out,... will the light shine through?
Under this broken roof,... it's only rain that I feel
I've been wishing out the days,... come back

I have been planning out,... all that I'd say to you
Since you slipped away,... know that I still remain true
I've been wishing out the days,...

Please say, that if you hadn't of gone now
I wouldn't have lost you another way
From wherever you are,... come back

And these days, they linger on
And in the night, as I'm waiting on
The real possibility I may meet you in my dream
I go to sleep

If I don't fall apart,.... will the memories stay clear?
So you had to go,..... and I had to remain here

But the strangest thing to date
So far away
And yet you feel so close
And I'm not gonna question it any other way

There must be an open door
For you to
Come back

And the days, they linger on
And every night, what I'm waiting for
Is the real possibility I may meet you in my dream

And sometimes you're there
And you're talking back to me
Come the morning I could swear you're next to me

And it's okay.

Fixed the positioning of the comment box! As you can see.

As for HTML email - yes, bit of a nightmare.

Many people, including me, were hoping for standards compliant HTML email using valid XHTML and CSS. That way developing a to be sent via email would be not so different to a page for the web, It was almost working too, then Outlook 97 was relased (which for reasons only known to MIcrosoft uses the Word rendering engine for HTML emails).

Now the only way to ensure your email is gojing to look exactly how you want it to is to go back to using nested tables and inline styling with depricated tags like <font> (so going back in time 10 years basically). Which is depressing but fine for people like me who used to build sites like that back in the day, but a bizarre and alien way of constructing a page for those who only ever worked in XHTM/CSS.

I am in the process of tagging all the old content on this blog and I know that I have made numerous links to articles about creating HTLM emails, so hopefully finding them will soon just be a matter of clicking a link.

In the mean time, the email standards project is web site is invaluable:

Liked this image so much I reblogged it, hope you don't mind! Also, had I not found your blog I would have had no idea you could integrate a comments system into Tumblr - so thanks!
