Tired of reading this place in a teeny weeny area???

I knew you two were secretly in love.
Like when you were young and liked someone, you used to hit them.......like that.

Thanks a lot for that reminder of royc. I think I liked it better when you just called me a pimp for hack products

Dice is getting jealous.....good! Keeps him on his twinkle toes.

all right Dice, here's what i found; i counted the question marks because the periods were making me ill...I came up with 106

so that would look like this: there's 60 that will fit in the type-in box on a line...if you want periods done, do it yourself
?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ????

I don't think the counting will work... bewteen the fonts used, our differing screen resolution, differing window size and things like that the right # of "?" for you will be different than the right # of "?" for me.

But I do like the idea - simple yet effective (most of the time!!!)

Geez, Dice that is really annoying. Didn't you ever hear of the old saying, "If it ain't broke don't fix it.?" How do you read your Pittsburg Evening Sun newpaper. Don't they have little columns?

No it isn't in little columns... it's in four pannels and Charlie Brown never says more than what fits in them anyway!

[coolwhip]

Its all sick and wrong.

it does work, as long as your screen and internet window are the same size that they used to be when we weren't in teeny weeny land...mine works good, maybe its just you

[hi-tork]

I think where you quoted me, is how it screwed it up...I'll give ya that one...

[spyman]

Mine displays just fine... I have pleanty of room.

My resolution is set at 1920x1200.

I'm just saying that you can't count on counting the number of characters used as a means of making it fit everyone's screen just right.

I've made pleanty of webpages where I've tried...someone always has some odd display setting that screws it up.

-- Don't you just love how Dice can start a discussion about absolutly nothing and it turns into a multi page thread. Dice - Did you used to write the Seinfeld scripts??

Mozilla Firefox browser, add the Nuke Anything extension, Right click in the white area below the sidebar and select "remove this object", the sidebar disappears, unfortunately it returns the next time a page loads, Im working on a more permanant way though

[RoBoTeq]

Having to scroll back and forth to read posts is a helluvah lot more annoying than reading in a narrow column.

Thanks....DICE!

They are good for killing threads, but they have also gotten me banned on other message boards :-D
