Switch the font to Verdana and try not to spell "Taylor" wrong twice 
Not only did I misspell it twice I misspelled it two different ways. Thanks for the davice. I'm doing this exclusively on paint so it is really hard and I don't know what font to use.

this is why i just stick to simple text and pictures from photo-bucket, it's much easier
i hate to say it but i don't really like these stories with a fancy layout. i like to read the stories because of the actual story and the results and pictures from the races. i think that the energy spent making the posts with paint could be spent playing the game and keeping the story running more smoothly.
then i guess some people like this kind of lay-out and it's good that all the stories are different because it makes them all interesting.
but then what do i know? my story got no votes!!!:cry: |

Matt have you looked at the text export thingie of PCM Dashboard. I've included it in the last update cause i didn't want to rewrite all those text portions like results and calendar. Click the export text template button and you'll see you can check which columns you want to include, the format of team/cyclists names etc. I've used it in my lates story updates, it saves a lot of time. Downside is that if you want them lined up/in tabular format you'll need to use a monospaced font like Courier. You can find better looking monospaced fonts when you go to dafonts.com and search under the "fixed-length" sub category. Anyway, nice story i hope you'll keep it up as it is indeed more time consuming then normal formatted stories but i really like this kinda layout with more then just race reports and the results. |

I like the layout and stuff, looks all nice and pwetty. But i can't help but notice the couple of mistakes (grammar and the such) which personally for me just detracts from the overall quality the reports show. Bare in mind that it's just me that is that picky however...

Wow you're taking home quite some wins . But i must say, try to make the pics a little larger, it makes it easier to read. (did my suggestion regarding resolution work for you?) |
