Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

I'm having a problem with the link page. I put in a link to the Useless Buffy Spoilers page, and wrote an overly long description which got truncated. I've tried to edit it (I just want to make the last sentence end with a period, rather than "- l"), but the edits won't take. Could someone fix it for me?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Done, Ouise.

Finally starting to catch up with all the requests.

The text entry box, and the instructions above it, and the "post message" button, should all be left-aligned in the middle column.

If we do this, the text entry box will have to be about 25% narrower, like the one on the edit-your-post page. Otherwise, folks with low-res monitors (640x480) will have to scroll right, which is a big usability no-no. Is a narrower text box an acceptable trade-off?

Is it possible to add the HTML that makes us able to do the pretty links to the lovely HTML instruction pop-up?

Done! Also added to the how-to page.

I've just noticed, when trying to make an HTML list come out as

A)
B)
C)

that I can't, because Jon B's set an override for all List Items in the style sheet to

list-style-type: disc

Removed!

Whatever happened with that issue of font sizes not being able to be overwritten by browser preference? I thought I read a post where that was resolved, but now I can't find it. Was I supposed to change something in the style sheet?
