But it's not visible when you're posting down at the bottom of the page, as it was on WX and TT.
It would be nice if there was a way to distinguish the posting box in the no-natter threads, so that there's a visual clue to warn people not to natter.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Our wings are not tired.
True nuff that it is on the title bar, but I don't think to look there. I've just learned to be more careful.

Your title bar is not my title bar. I'm talking about the thing that's at the very top of the browser window, above the browser's toolbar, above the File, Edit, View menus, etc.

...or not positioned relative to your menus at all, if you're one of us Mac folks. But it's the area with the close, minimize and zoom controls.
With the default fonts for Mozilla on the Mac, the title is pretty small compared to the rest of the text in the browser. It's hard to see, so it doesn't help much to keep one from posting to the wrong thread.
I think it would be good to add another line above the posting box that displays the name of the thread that will receive the new message.

Michele--in case you didn't get your fontsize fixed, in IE (at least in IE 6), go to View, then down to Text Size, where you can change the size of things.

Stompy foot needed in Natter to close a font tag.
Edit: never mind, it's not Natter and I can't find the post anymore.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think it's Angel, no?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If it was Natter, I found it and fixed it already. Haven't seen anything in Angel.

I don't know what it is, but starting with Rebecca Lizard's post in Angel, all the posted text is little for me.

For future references, we should include a link or post number in the tag-fix heads ups.
I mean, I think we should.
(how's that?)
