Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Are we allowing the changing of font size or just the face?

The current request is for both.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I don't really know much about this stuff, but can't people change the size with their browser? Or is that only some browsers?

Up with the sun

If you change the size with your browser, you have to change it back when you go to another site.

I'm suddenly having odd problems where if I just go to the main page (b.org), it's fine and fast, but if I'm in a thread, and try to click on the "message center" link at the bottom of a page, it tells me it can't load it. Is this the board hating me? The wireless connection being freaky? Or evil, lurking?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

A couple of days ago, DX asked if anyone was finding that some messages got skipped when you post, so that when you post something you only see the post immediately before yours, instead of everything new.

It's happened to me a few times lately.

Hmm. That's not the same as what DX described. Can you tell me which post of yours triggered that?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

OOps, you're right. I haven't seen it just on clicking on a thread, but maybe I haven't been paying attention then.

This morning, I got cat-rupted while I was typing this Lee "Natter 32 Flavors and Then Some" Feb 19, 2005 9:36:51 am PST .

The last post I saw before I started was this: kat perez "Natter 32 Flavors and Then Some" Feb 19, 2005 8:39:13 am PST

but when I finally posted, it only showed me this JenP "Natter 32 Flavors and Then Some" Feb 19, 2005 9:20:15 am PST and my post, so it skipped 8 posts.

eta: I am pretty sure it has happened before, but I wasn't sure until this morning.

This is going to be hard to troubleshoot, but I'll keep working at it.

Eh. It seemed worth mentioning, but I'm pretty good at hitting the previous button, so it's not a big deal to me, so if it's much work, just chalk it up to me being insane.

Mostly lurking...

ita, when you come around...do you know when you last updated the FAQ? It's got stuff about searching, but the "Last Updated" part says April 25, 2004, which can't be right.
