Title: You Can Tell Me Where To Go...
Post by: Patti Feinberg on March 03, 2003, 09:46:25 PM
Now I KNOW I found on the Nyquil/nytol whatever this new site ;) is shamrocks.

If I found 'em, they can't be too far in.

Where on their site were the shamrocks??

MB...I'll be glad to send you some benadryl...I get HIVES when I look at 'mirrors/patches/LINUX/etc' all the 'stuff' on there!!!!

LETS REMEMBER WHAT MB WROTE ABOUT EVERYONE (ESPECIALLY ME! THINKING HE KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYTHING ON INTERNET/YABBA ETC....)

Dear MB...after I posted this, I went in more and found the shamrocks/leprachauns.

Okay, I clicked and they ?downloaded? to my ?zip? drive and it automatically ?opened? paint shop pro. The leprachaun was there, I right clicked, hit 'copy', but when I went back to board (I was still on), I could not 'paste'.

Now, poor MB has to tell me how to ?convert? to mpjec or something....

waaa...why doesn't the YaBBa board thing tell me how to do this (it states to use for own personal use, and it's taking up ALOT of space on my harddrive)....

oh well....

tant pis pour elle (one of the first french phrases I learned).

Au revoir

Patti

BUT I STILL GOT THE TURTLE!!! THANKS AGAIN MB!!

Okay, so it's not just me then ;)

I have to admit it was very weird to see that instead of "Nails on a Blackboard," the subject heading I gave it, we now had "Nails Damn a Blackboard," which caused me to wonder if oh, say, I had just made the typo of the century:

Yikes. I haven'**** been watching DS for about a week, mainly because this part of 1897 is excruciating for me: Petofi, Trask, Tim the Dim (ass's only tolerable with the sound off), Angelique, etc. Not much for me to actually want to spend my now quite scarce time damn.

But today, I watched my tape and Oh. My. God. Amanda.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, but ass's worse than I remembered.

Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.

What's worse is that I can'**** seem to find the remote control

MB, sweetie, please know that I'm not complaining :) I know how hard you work and I really do appreciate the efforts that MB, Dom and you make for all of us :)

Actually, I think it kind of adds something extra to my post ;)

I haven't got the vaguest idea of what was going on. Somehow things from the censored word list as well as parts of HTML table code was appearing in people's posts where it quite obviously shouldn't have. I just deleted the entire word list and that seems to have fixed things. But anyone's guess is as good as mine as to what caused it.  :-

Now let's see if I can put the list back together...

Well, the word list is back in place and things are working normally again.

Who knows what happened? And from out of nowhere to boot. :-  But I'm not even going to try to figure it out - unless it comes back again! LOL!

I hope you don't mind that I'm answering instead of MB.  You can't paste images into your messages.  To get an image to show up, it has to be stored somewhere on the net, and then you type the URL of that image into your message and surround it with YaBB image tags, which in essence link the post to the image.

MB provided you with everything you need to make the shamrock image show up-- all you have to do is copy and paste that entire line into your post.  Try it, and after the post is submitted the smiley will show up in its place.

It does.  Click Help, then Posting, then YaBBC (for YaBB codes).  It gives this rough example:

Type This

Oh, I dunno  ;D I thought it added some interesting piquancy to the postings, lol. Certainly expressed how I happen to feel about Amanda ;)

Wait now...so color isn't on this actual board, but if we remember how, we can use it, right (or am I hallucinating??)

You can make it smaller using the width and height attributes in the first IMG tag. Using this:

Code: [Select]
[img width=20 height=20]http://www.dsboards.com/41987961.gif[/img]
will give you this: (http://www.dsboards.com/41987961.gif)

And using this:

Code: [Select]
[img width=25 height=25]http://www.dsboards.com/41987961.gif[/img]
will give you this: (http://www.dsboards.com/41987961.gif)

See? ;)

The same standard colors are listed to the right of the YABBC tags and over the smilies.
