A little spice
So reading the Progressives v. Blue Dogs story I realized what would be handy? A chart showing how many seats, graphically, each caucus has. And then I realized, the entire site could do with some graphs/characters/visual aids where appropriate in stories.
So.... get your web development people on it TPM!

1) Not a member of TPM so how could I do it?
2) My SO actually does that as her job not me.

Employee I mean, not member.

Since you're not an employee, you can't make the chart and post it to a blog or email it to TPM?

If I post it to a blog, it'll be ignored by the staff, they have no reason to look at my blog. If I email it to them, likewise. You think any of their writers are going to stop, and insert a graphic? Is there even room? I've never seen a graphic except the electoral maps on the site.

Man, that's lots of excuses for not generating something you think "would be handy."

I'm also not inclined to help TPM for free since I hate what they've done to the site and prefer the old way.

I shudder to think what might happen to the comment system if they stole the wrong piece of duct tape :-)
