Here are some style guidelines for the SpokenMedia website:
- When in doubt, look at older posts to see what style has been used in the past
- You could also ask! 😛
Blog Posts
- Do have descriptive post titles
- Do “Write tight”–don’t use superfluous wording, try not to use overly complex sentences
- Do use these style conventions:
- Major section headings:
<h3>
- Minor section headings:
<h4>
- Line/horizontal rule:
<hr />
- Images: Include alt and caption text, and attribution
<div id="sm-citation">Person</Optional Site Name</div>
- Flickr/Twitter Attribution:
<div id="sm-citation">Photo Credit: @username/sitename</div>
, link to image at Flickr
For example:
- Major section headings:
<div id="sm-citation-left">...</div>
. For example:
