This is a link post Tube Knobs I made this!


I wrote a tounge-in-cheek blog post that quite a few people liked about verious knobs you see on the London Underground.

I hope you don't mind me posting it here =)

This is a normal post Why bother?
Your explanation here of your blog post is actually longer than the actual post, also the picture is in a bigger rez here than on that "blog" so what is the point linking to it here?

This is a normal post He's got a point
The layout of the site cuts you off
_______________HERE__________________

Then continues but looks like an unrelated subject
Which as it contains a different heading which is the same style as the title and a seemingly unrelated picture doesn't entice you to read further.

Pretty confusing
Isn't it?

This is a normal post Yup, I agree, see below, I just didn't realise what s/he meant with what they posted.
I've changed around the CSS now so it's more ovbouse what the headline is and what a subheadline is... is that better now?

immediately obvious but the Mr Important is a sub heading, the blog post continues below.

This is a normal post Ohhhh, that's quite interesting from a design point of view, I didn't realise the HRs would make people think they're different posts.

This is a normal post Its the layout and headings and sizing of pics
Dont like wordpress at the best of times but sorry your layout is really confusing making it look like multiple posts. I make sites for a living and my rule of thumb is - if I am confused by a layout - how will the "public" take it?
(, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 14:34, Reply)
This is a normal post Yeah', I see what you mean, I've changed it around now.
I also make sites for a living, using H1s as a subheading was a mistake, and the H2s were too close to the H1s in the CSS, what do you think now?

I thought because I was linking to a specific post, rather than an index of some sort, it would be ovbouse that it's all the same post. Should be more blatant now.
(, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 14:48, Reply)
This is a normal post I'd put h1 in a different font (serif one to really make it different)
and about 50%. I am a design spaz though.
(, Sun 27 Feb 2011, 14:53, Reply)
This is a normal post Rather than do the H1s which is more global and would make other posts without H2s look out of wack with the general site design, I've tried doing it with the H2s which are more sparse
What do you reckon now?

But reading out exactly what
is written in the text of
your video is redundant and
poor presentation.

Also, burnt children are not what we like to see. Yes! It's what happens. No! Flagging it wasn't censorship, it was a community response to disturbing images.

I'm a paid up sympathiser (met my wife at a Palestine fund raiser), but this sort of preachy, poorly made journalism isn't helpful.

Hey - I'm on your side.

I've attended ISM meetings, marched my feet off round London, sent my hard earned pennies to MAP, and all that jazz. I have my Noam Chomsky books and my Caterkiller t-shirt; I've handed out leaflets in Trafalgar Square and hassled the press to cover stories that the Israeli Foreign Ministry were quietly burying. I've even been banned from a US-based site for writing (quite mildly-worded and citation-backed) essays in support of Palestinians and highlighting the inequalities in the media.

But the video you posted is poor, and it won't help convert anyone new - and my criticism isn't nasty enough to warrant your response.

good for you going to your meetings and handing out leaflets... i think the video is reasonably well presented - so take your "see me's" and your red teachers pen and jam it down your fucking cock hole.
