    So lowercase or uppercase 'T'?  (The text and picture disagree with each other.)

     

    Not having a space after the colon is going to bug me...  😉

    I decided to look it up:

     

    The Chicago Manual of Style:

    6.60 In typeset matter, no more than one space should follow a colon. Further, in some setting — as in a source citation between a volume and page number with no intervening date or issue number, a biblical citation, or a ratio — no space should follow a colon.

    Since this is not a source citation, biblical citation, or ratio, a space should follow the colon.  😁
