When you look at magazines, they have pretty sweet formatting. One of
the techniques I like is the drop cap, where the first letter in a
paragraph is quite large with the rest of the text wrapping about it.
The break down of it all can be found in this
[[http://www.mandarindesign.com/dropcaps.html][article]] over at
[[http://www.mandarindesign.com/][mandarindesign.com]]. So I thought,
rather than hand-coding it in on posts, I'd just rather write a
Wordpress plugin to do it for me. Usage is quite simple:

1. Download the
   [[http://jamesaimonetti.com/wp-admin/wp-content/plugins/caps.tar.gz][plugin]].
2. Untar it into your wp-content/plugins directory.
3. Enable the plugin.
4. In your posts, put the <caps> tag in front of the letter you'd like
   to have the style applied.
