back to top is gay! put a link on your toolbar. tgl, if you're going to make the format easier, have the discussion panel in a frame, so it scrolls separately...

Posted by Miriam on 2005-07-27 18:09:44 +0000

um, I don't know how to do that I work with people, not computers

Posted by dawnbixtler on 2005-07-27 18:27:56 +0000

I'm sure you could learn...

Posted by Miriam on 2005-07-27 18:32:00 +0000

I'm sure I could, too. It's just a matter of ease-of-use.

Well, [i]obviously[/i], Miriam, all we have to do is reformat the flexometer so that the diafrasamissaniss is coagulated to a power of nineteen seventy six. [b]Obviously.[/b] What is this, IT class or the back porch, huh? [i]Sayin'[/i].

Posted by Miriam on 2005-07-27 19:26:51 +0000

Thanks for backin' me up, babe.

Posted by pamsterdam on 2005-07-27 19:35:06 +0000

You got it, Miriam. x I'm totally supportive of there being certain lines of conversation which may by nature exclude certain other members of the gang (um, [i]baseball[/i], anyone?), but I don't think there should be some kind of required minimum IT skills to belong to RSD, should there?

Posted by dawnbixtler on 2005-07-27 19:37:00 +0000

Still, don't ask for tgl to do something gay, just cause you're lazy... sayin'.

Posted by pamsterdam on 2005-07-27 19:39:33 +0000

Dawn, either write out specific and easy to follow instructions, or stop being patronising. [i]Sayin'[/i].

Add a link to "recent posts" in your [url=http://www.rba.co.uk/search/toolbar.htm]toolbar[/url].

One could argue that the quality of our posts will diminish to tech talk like the "top six posters in the shiz-house" thread* if we establish some unwritten rules of Tech edict which would shame people into not providing suggestions to TGL of things they find helpful. sayin. * [img]http://www.friedmanarchives.com/China/Web/Chapter12/Sleeping_on_desk_4x6_72_dpi.jpg[/img] _______________________________

Now would be a good time to acquaint oneself with the "Home" key.

Posted by tgl on 2005-07-28 01:06:09 +0000

Good job.

As the guy that makes all the Jandek posts, I realize I don't have a leg to stand on re: anything on this thread.

Posted by pamsterdam on 2005-07-28 05:33:01 +0000

That, tgl, that was exactly what I was looking for. A useful piece of advice. Thank you. Although all the macho posturing from [i]those who will not be named[/i] was also very entertaining.

Posted by pamsterdam on 2005-07-28 05:44:03 +0000

Why, is Jandek a technology-snob too? ;-) I like the Jandek posts. Especially the photos of BQ dressed up as him...

The male of the species is [i]always[/i] the most attractive & impressive. It's a law of nature.

Posted by Miriam on 2005-07-28 15:26:49 +0000

So sorry to ask something I thought would be helpful. Should I have just emailed him directly? I'm not a techie like some of you and don't know the rules of posting. Maybe some group norms would be great for those of us not in the know.

In addition to the home button, Mir, if you have the posts displayed in chronological order, you can use the end button to get to the bottom... Stupid mouse.

Posted by Miriam on 2005-07-28 15:41:39 +0000

Got it. Home. End. Arrows. F the mouse.

Posted by G lib on 2005-07-29 13:34:41 +0000

M-- I didn't know about the damn home key either, and I even took a geeky computer science class in college. . One I did know about-- Alt+Left Arrow = Web Browser 'Back'. Alt+Right=Web browser Forward. . Very convenient. ________________ --Feminazi

Ooh! Ooh! I like that.

Posted by dawnbixtler on 2005-07-29 19:57:50 +0000

Really? How about the humans?

Posted by pamsterdam on 2005-08-08 08:25:22 +0000

Well, [i]obviously[/i] it's true of humans. I have no idea why anyone would find the female of the species more attractive, but I'm damned happy some folks do, crazy as they might be...
