new philidendron banner: flaky blue window

Now that I have a bit more freetime during summer break, I'm going to make an honest effort to revive my blog. I haven't changed much on it in a LONG time. Everytime you load my blog, you might notice that the title banner changes. It loads randomly from a set of 5 or 6 different pictures; and they've been the same for about two years.

So I've added some more into the mix. This one (reload the blog until you see it in action) is cropped from a SWEET photo I took in Quebec City when David and I took a trip there over my spring break from school. I think this may be the most beautiful color I've ever photographed. And the texture of the peeling paint is amazing as well. I'm not sure how old this building is, but
it's at least in the 100's of years old. Maybe as many as 300 years old. I remember reading that the oldest house in Quebec City was built in the late 1600's. Scroll down to see the whole house from across the street.


Below is the original picture. Click it to open the whole flickr set of Montral/Quebec City vacation pictures.

I love that copper roof!

P.S. I'll blog occasionally about other banners, as well as other changes to my blog. You get points for commenting on my new banners...or anything for that matter. For what are these points redeemable, you ask? a Name-Drop or two on my blog..

P.S.S. Extra points if you can name the font used in the title banner. (ross?)

Name drops are the best! (And it should be PPS not PSS ... post post script.)

I didn't know the font, but did some research - my guess is Officiano, a font that I don't own! :(

Thanks for the PSS tip.

Officiano...close! (as close as you can get in font comparison...) but not quite.

I'll let you keep working on that.
