First, I'm really happy you're doing this, and I think the newsletter is overall an excellent addition to the C6D lj community.

I'm looking directly at the layout (rather than viewing it on my fpage as normal) and I have a few comments:

1) Why do you have it set to show only a single "issue" at a time? I suppose it makes sense if you're thinking in terms of "issues" like a periodical, but practically it makes it harder to browse through past postings.

2) Any chance you could up the font size? I am using nosquint so I can do it manually for myself (which is making this text box look funny - I have to up it to 120% to be able to read the entries comfortably), but I think in general it would make the community easier to use as a resource if the font size was larger.

I'm glad you're finding this to be a useful resource, isis.

1. I've experimented with various setting for this and the main problem is that there are so many sections within the newsletter that it's easy to get lost. After a while, you find yourself not knowing what week you're viewing. It's a toss-up between the inconvenience of having to "page" backwards to read previous newsletters versus getting lost and not knowing which week you're reading. I'm going to leave it as it is for right now, but I may change it in the future.

2. I've upped the font - let me know if it needs to be larger still.

Again, I'm glad the c6d_weekly is useful to you and thank you for letting me know your opinion on the appearance. It is a work in progress and nothing is set in stone.

I'm glad it's readable now - not squinting is a good thing...

Thanks, isis.
