OH Happy Day


FIRST
I need to
tell you you I'm thrilled, absolutely delighted

with the new text abilities on top of the message text.

I'm making my way through them

testing them out, and getting familiar with them.

A very welcome addition, and I thank the programmers.


This is so easy that I can do it with no trouble at all, and that's a mouthful.

type or insert a block of text that you want to ultimately be inside a gray box


highlight it by selecting it
then click the "excerpt" block. Your highlighted words will be inside the block.
Test it and look at it with "preview".
I just did it to the sentence on top, and I love it so much I feel like I have been gifted.

There is only one more thing I still need for us photographers so we can do our contests again.
I wonder who knows just what that might be?
