If you've been here before you may have noticed the reduction
in illustration on some of the entries. The short explanation is that having
been sued for using an image scanned from a twenty-year-old postcard in a
previous entry, I have removed anything that might be regarded as copyright to
anyone other than me. Well, and a couple of tickets which I didn't design. The
dispute has taken over eight months to resolve and while the eventual outcome wasn't catastrophic, it was expensive enough in time as well as cash terms to
make it unrepeatable.
In most cases, the absent pictures were largely there to
break up the text rather than to be admired in their own right. I find long
unbroken passages hard to read from a screen, but hey-ho, a bit of
experimentation with fonts and their sizes may improve matters. One reader has
already mentioned that they find the white-on-black hard to read. Not sure I
agree, but if that proves to be a consensus it is easily remedied. Any views or
suggestions on this would be very welcome via the comment button.
