Pretty self-explanatory, what are some tips you would give people thinking of starting a season log? Mine would be don't burn yourself out. I remember the first day of my Pirates log I had like 5 updates. Typically don't do that. The game is fun but very repetitive and can get boring. Try and do one or two games a day. I would recommend not doing more than that.

Since nobody else is helping, I'll add another one. Different sizes, spacing, bolding, coloring, and underlineing are great additions to any log. Sure, you can have a good log with all normal font bunched together, but it gets hard to read and looks like you didn't put much effort in. Yet, on the other hand, don't go crazy with it. If you go overboard it makes your log look sloppy and unprofessional. Finding the right balance is key, and if you can pull it off well, you're setting yourself up for success

When you say pictures, do you mean taking pictures of your TV or finding pictures of logos on Google?

What do you mean by overboard?

Also, ether make it innovative and interesting, or a total rebuilding project. The rebuilding project must be realistic, though.

I was personally thinking about doing a full league roster edit and starting a log as the Nats. But I may start a log as '08 Nats.

By overboard, I mean using it too much. I can't really do an example because I'm on my phone, but you should know what I mean. Usually, if you're going overboard, it's on purpose and you realize what you're doing. Although, I have seen people that are completely oblivious and think that doing everything at once looks great

I personally prefer it small and neat, nice and easy.

Hit the preview button. Make sure what you're about to post is well-organized and not a garbled mess of colored text. If you look at it and the words seem to blend together where they shouldn't, try adding space in between different parts, making headers bigger, etc.
