Typographical Intro Paragraph (WIP)

4 Responses

    This is a work in progress with some typographic styles for an intro paragraph on each article. This is a shot of actual markup.

    The full image frames this much better and includes some button styles.

    It's also responsive.

    Thoughts? I know jack about type.

    I think the headline is not very readable for numerous reasons: condensed, uppercase and low letter spacing.

    When, in addition to that, the headline is not short and there are long and seldom used words in it (like "hoverintent"), that may put the reader off, because the article then just doesn't look very accessible.

    The rest is fine though ;-)

    @Christoph Brückner I wanted to find a nice sans-serif for headings and this is taken from my homepage to see if it would work. I like the contrast but you're right, from a readability perspective (which is the most important function in this case) it doesn't work too well.

  4. Improved based on previous feedback.

    - New serif headline font
    - Better spacing
    - CSS3 columns in the text

    Check our the full size version for the full impact.

    Again, this is a shot of actual markup & is responsive.
