Reads like you are using old, clunky, outdated software.








Um, no... I used HTML5 with CSS. Nothing beyond that in mainstream


use at this time. So, like I said. You can spell, big ****ing deal.


I am out here making a paycheck, you are sitting around bitching


cause you don't have enough stuff...












What? Gee, I've not had problems lining up copy and art and photos.




Gosh. I must be doing something wrong.




LOL, I guess.. More Zimmerman like Lobsta' boats?? Macromedia Flash 8,


Dreamweaver CS6, HTML 5 with CSS that you are calling "old, clunky,


outdated software" .. HTML 5 isn't even being used universally yet,


much less clunky idiot








Perhaps you should "invest" in a bootlegged spell checker, grammar


checker, and context checker, or hire someone with a working familiarity


of the English language.




If you had windoze you could just open the text in Word and let Bill


take a look.






There you go. Of course, a speeeeeeel czecher won't help the

functionally illiterate with context or even in some cases with

speeeeeeeling.


You babble on but you still can't back up your very first statement here that my CS6, Macromedia 8, HTML 5 and CSS are "clunky" and "old"... You obviously don't know anything about building sites or coding so why not just say I spell badly and leave it at that?


I don't know what you are using, only what you claim you are using, and
my guess is that if you have spend all that time balancing the length of
paragraphs, you don't really know how to use whatever it is you are
using. The sites I produced and maintain have lots of different sized
photos and videos and copy blocks, and I can swap any of them out for
newer stuff without a great deal of grief. But of course I am not a
professional site designer.

Your real error is in letting a site go live and publishing its URL
without having colleagues check the writing for obvious errors, gaffes,
misspellings, and suchlike. You might want to consider finding a
professional writer in your area who will work with you on copy. There's
no shame in that. Oh, and none of the writers I know, and I know a lot
of writers, use spell check or grammar check.
