FONT STYLE......Re: Donna and crafts

[Guest guest]

I always use a 12 pt font, and Margaret your below message came in smaller, and Caits was bigger. The same happens with others here, and I wonder if its the font itself and not the size because different styles of fonts will show up in different sizes. This happened before when Sharon asked someone to enlarge their font and hers was smaller than theirs. I had a good chuckle over that. Caits has always come thru as bigger than mine. So I don't know if its a Yahoo thing, or the font style?

Hugs and Love, Jackie

May the peace of God be with you...the love of Jesus enfold you...and the Spirit of Christ fill you.

Hi Cate, You said it perfectly about Donna's art work. Cate could you please try to bring our font up. I am having a hard time reading what you have to say. Sharon if I stepped on your toes it is not intentional.

Yes but you can't sell yourself short Donna. After you price the materials, how much do you really make an hour? Plus your creativity has a value.

I used to stitch for people but only those who knew how much the materials cost. If it were a piece on linen and silk threads, they paid for the materials before I even started. I know some charge a penny a stitch but that doesn't work if the design is full of specialty stitches.

And just looking at what people charge and actually get for knitting/crochet etc. One lady sells a pair of socks for over $100 ... sure it's wonderful wool but I wouldn't even wear them in case my toenail made a hole in them.

On the other hand tho, people who go to art galleries know the works are going to be expensive and if they like something they're prepared to buy it. It wouldn't hurt to try a painting or two ... hugs, Cait

That was me that had happened to ..I don't know why that happens either.

Now, with my new email, it goes through hotmail, and my old one was outlook express and the fonts ARE different here than they were there........My font with Caits post, then Margarets...they were one and the same! lol

Hmm, I wonder if it has to do with what version of Yahoo mail you use? I use Classic. Didn't like the "plus All-New".

It's just plain weird! SharonThis email is a natural hand made product. The slight variations in spelling and grammar enhance its individual character and beauty and in no way are to be considered flaws or defects.
