Thanks everyone. I go back and touch up the tops and bottoms, so I hadn't thought about it until recently. And I also used to move to the right a tiny bit at the top, as mentioned in the thread you shared, Amy (which is so helpful, thanks!), but I think I was on information overload and I stopped doing it because I didn't catch why I was supposed to and I had to go back to fix it anyway. I'll start doing that again, now that I have the mental room to think about the details of this whole calligraphy thing (aherm..4 months in... have I mentioned I'm not naturally inclined toward calligraphy/arty things?
)
Thanks again for your help, Gary, Felicia and Amy. I'm going to go re-read that other thread about 10 more times.
