So, I just realized upon trying to read my own blog post that the "shortcut" I used in creating this post, which was simply to slap in the jpeg file I already had with all the words already on it, and just be "done with it" quick & dirty right? |
(Note: This way ended up being infinitely longer than the supposed long way would've taken me. it also, has the added benefit of being the least convenient, most appallingly formatted, & shamefully uneditable blog post I have either seen or written anywhere. and sadly, I have now done both. saw it and wrote it as well. after doing this, I felt obligated to explain myself further, and also post these helpful diy tips for making this blog post slightly less offensive to the senses.) |
While it may represent for me, the absolutely most loathesome object, and biggest regret Ive had yet, while blogging I've learned a valuable lesson I will share momentarily....... |
........Quickly, though--if you're dying to know how and why this JPEG blog post idea would ever, ever, ever manifest as an actual carried-out, finished product blog post in the first place, I will answer one half of the how/why combination for you, in the form of a piece of unsolicited yet emphatically true and passionately delivered advice (as I promised above, this is also the valuable lesson I've learned): Bloggers; Putting it simply: no matter what your initial reason for trying to create a blog post, from scratch, in ms-paint.............. |
...............Do not act on your impulse to actually do it. |
The following purple text contains the only real helpful hint to improve your reading experience, when that experience is about to be in a jpeg |
I highly recommend using the keyboard combination shortct of control & "++" which is actually just a fast double tapping of the "+" key.--- or with your mouse, by going up to view, and in the drop down, select "zoom" and then manually zooming "in" a few times until the words are all much bigger on your screen and therefore much easier to read. I believe the command is essentially the same in ie as it is in firefox, which is what I use, (because, hey, who doesn't love downloading a full new version every few weeks of one's most frequently used single application across all of devices which have a screen of any kind), but if I remember correctly, its even mouse-easier because the bottom right of the browser when the "status" box is showing or whatever, you can just select the little icon that probably shows "100%" and pick whatever size you want to make it. if you do not see that little toolbar, in ie, go to "view" >"toolbars">"status bar" and make sure it is checkmarked by selecting it if its not. then follow the zoom steps referenced previously. |
My commitment to you is, that if you muddle through and manage to read this blog post without giving up on me forever based on this grossly incompetent experiment than I promise to either A) Send you a million dollars, or B) Never create another blog post this way again. (Choice from A or B expressly mine and mine alone.) |
