IVRPA Web Badges & Body Font Face

I think the new site is great! Keep up the good work. Good to see how quickly email subscriptions to threads was added..although one email per message seems a bit over-kill for busy threads.

I thought I saw some IVRPA web badges we can use to link back to our site here, but maybe I was mistaken since I can't seem to find it. If I'm overlooking it, please excuse, and point me in the right direction.

Also, I really find sans serif fonts distracting and hard to read for body text. Maybe it's time for me to learn how to teach Safari to use a style sheet of my own making...but I'm wondering if something that even hints at serifs can be used for body text, like Trebuchet MS or Verdana?

Thanks, Drew

Um, Verdana is san-serif,

Um, Verdana is san-serif, sorry, but for sans-serif it's much easier on my eyes than arial or helvetica. Sorry if this sounds petty.

fonts …

arial, helvetica, trebuchet, verdana, geneva, etc are all sans serif … and yes harder to read online in dense bodytype than serif: georgia, times etc. But for a forum, imho, I guess they are ok as long as a hierarchy is maintained with a proper stylesheet. A properly written css shouldn't need be over-ruled locally.

Aldo et al, since we're into online publishing how about some basic links section relating to online publishing, vr display etc, and to start with typography ;-)
