Nan, you asked how I came in that I couldn't see the Firth topics. Here's the link I used to come in: http://www.spring.com/yapp-bin/restricted/browse/drool/all/new then I edited off the "new" to make it: http://www.spring.com/yapp-bin/restricted/browse/drool/all and I still can't see it. Oh. I just had a thought. Maybe it popped into the realm of the "forgotten" on its own. That used to happen sometimes.

Yup that was it. And the "remember" key actually worked. Sometimes it sticks.

I'm brand new here and I need help. I'm used to how you post at RoP and I definitely noticed that it's done different here. How do you include part of a previous message from another person in your own message? Can you snip or something?

COPY & PASTE (Alicia)How do you include part of a previous message from another person in your own message? Can you snip or something? Unlike RoP where the previous message is automatically given to you in the response box, here you have to put the message in the box yourself. You should highlight the message to which you want to respond, hit Ctrl+C, put the cursor in the response box and hit Ctrl+V. What I usually do is just copy and paste anything that's been posted since my last response and do all the snipping in the response area. That way you don't have to go back and forth, searching for other people's comments. Since we have no threads like RoP, we try to keep the flow of conversation easy to read by putting a topic in bold capital letters and italicizing the previous poster's comments. It's just very basic html. If you don't know any html, feel free to email me and I'll give you the basics you'll need or you can visit "Ann's basic tag tutorial" at RoP which is very clear and easy to use. Let me know if you have any problems. ;-)

Thank you very much for the help, Nan. You have been most kind. :-)

Too funny Henry! ;-)

Okay here is my problem. Every time I go into topic 59 I start out back at number 1 again. Now how many times can I watch the shade go up and down, well all day if I could but, I really would like to read the newer posts. What am I doing wrong.

(Laura) Okay here is my problem. Every time I go into topic 59 I start out back at number 1 again. Now how many times can I watch the shade go up and down, well all day if I could but, I really would like to read the newer posts. What am I doing wrong. Your bookmark is probably set at ALL which takes you to the main page at drool and gives you a list of all the topics. However, it also shows you ALL the messages when you enter a topic. Very tedious, I know. To see only a list of the topics that have new messages since you last checked in, you can go to the main drool board here: http://www.spring.com/yapp-bin/restricted/browse/drool/all/new If you just want to check topic 59 for new messages you can go here: http://www.spring.com/yapp-binn/restricted/read/drool/59/new If you want to refer back to something you read at an earlier time, just use the redisplay button to back up to the number of the post you want to see. Hope this helps. :-)

Well, I screwed up that second link somehow (not surprising). So here we go again: http://www.spring.com/yapp-bin/resricted/read/drool/59/new

You see what I did, don't you--spelling error. Not once, but twice! UGH! ;-( http://www.spring.com/yapp-bin/restricted/read/drool/59/new

Where is the Nicolas Cage drool conference!!

I don't think there ever was one. You interested, honey? Did you just see that angel movie or something? ;-p

Well, I saw it a coupla weeks ago. Wasn't great, but he was gorgeous!! Needed to download an image to put in a frame for a friend of mine, and said to myself, I'm sure I can get one from the Drool Conference! But noooooo! I had to go someplace else and feel like a traitor! :) I think he's a hot item right now, so maybe his page will get some action. Hard to say, though. Seems if your name isn't Colin around here, you are simply yesterday's news. :)

I think he's a hot item right now, so maybe his page will get some action. Well, few pages get action unless you hunt down people and let them know the boards are there for their use. Hard to say, though. Seems if your name isn't Colin around here, you are simply yesterday's news. :) LOL! Yes, it must be hard for you, honey. All that Colin talk and so little Kevin. See, I knew where to look to find the Colin people, but where would I look for Kevin people? Obviously we welcome all legal drinking age droolers. Any suggestions? Do you know where the Kevin fans congregate?

don't feel bad, my david duchovny topic isn't very popular, but hey, more room for me!

(Wolf) don't feel bad, my david duchovny topic isn't very popular, but hey, more room for me! Hee hee...but it's so much more fun with a few friends to fuel the drool. How about you, Wolf? Do you know where the DD fans can be found? Have you had anyone promising sign your guestbook who may want to join you here?

no, but my dddp site is pretty new. the places where everybody goes to drool over him are at the david duchovny estrogen brigade, and that's not my style (seems so cheap or something). will have to see how to add my site to some of their links! if folks do a search using his name, my site does show up.

if folks do a search using his name, my site does show up. Cool! If anyone shows up there and you need a place to let it go, you know where to come babe ;-) In the meantime, I'll look around and see what I can come up with for droolees other than Colin...

Nan, I am not able to do italics or bold. I have searched here and beyond but to no avail. Why is it different than at RoP? Please help!

For italics use an i an angle brackets followed by a slash i in angle brackets. Standard html code is what's used here. Bodl is a b in angle brackets then type the text then put a slash b in angle brackets. OK?

Nan, I am not able to do italics or bold. I have searched here and beyond but to no avail. Why is it different than at RoP? I see Terry beat me to it :-) Was that helpful?

Thank you Terry and Nan! I hope this works.

It did! Now for another question: Where can I find Stefanie B.'s continuation of Concessions here? I have been meaning to read it, but can no longer find it.

Nan. I have E-mailed you with a problem. I was trying to put in my new E-mail address. I resigned and then re- registered into the drool topic. I have 2 problems. 1. I seem to be registered twice (not a problem for me, except I do not know now which registration has the correct E-mail. and 2. much more urgent - I am having to read through all the Colin topics again and I shall have to stay on line all night to get through them all. What do I do?

(Moon) Now for another question: Where can I find Stefanie B.'s continuation of Concessions here? I have been meaning to read it, but can no longer find it. Any story which was posted by Stef would be a the Fan Fiction topic (#34)... Fan Fic at Spring (Allison) I have E-mailed you with a problem. I didn�t get the email, honey :-( 1. I seem to be registered twice (not a problem for me, except I do not know now which registration has the correct E-mail. You can check the which logon has the correct email by going back to your post and hitting the link to your email addres--the blue one in parenthesis which follows your name. 2. much more urgent - I am having to read through all the Colin topics again and I shall have to stay on line all night to get through them all. What do I do? At the bottom of the main drool page, under the topic listing, click on the link that says �Mark everything as read�. Then you should make sure that your main page is set to �new�. This way you will only see new posts the next time you access the page. Hope this helps.

Sorry, Moon the link above didn't work (I'm a lousy typist ;-p). Let me try that again: Fan Fic at Spring

Thank you Nan! With your added link I was able to get there, but, I am not able to enter from the main menu. Is it because there are no postings at FF Spring of late?

(Moon) Is it because there are no postings at FF Spring of late? Probably, yes.

Test

Thanks for your help, Nan. I seem to have solved most of my problems, thanks to your help. Now I just hope this new E-mail address works :-)

Nan, today is Marty's birthday!! Are you doing anything special to celebrate? Didja send him a card? (didn't know where else to post this. :)

Just testing

Hello, hello Goodbye

Thanks! (see, I knew it was a good place to ask...)

William! Good to see you out and about, dear ;-)

And where have you been? (well, except for your own private puddle... hey, can you get me a menu from Union Square Cafe? I bought their cookbook and wanna check their prices...)

Oh, I've been around. School starts again next week, so I'll be in and out until May :-/ I bought their cookbook and wanna check their prices...) Fairly expensive...that's all I know. I'll swipe a menu for you when I get a chance, m'dear ;-)

have you learned anything useful and/or cool yet? and thanks = D

have you learned anything useful and/or cool yet? Honey, I think everything about that program is useful and cool--just love it. The first semester was basically core classes. This upcoming semester starts the really cool stuff ;-)

are you going to show and tell?

Oh, yeah...catch me in a couple of months when I've learned Director ;-)

until then! *keeping fingers crossed*

Testing...

Eliminate the space after the first "<" Then it should appear. ;-)

Testing again...thank you Karen!

Grrr...

SIGH...

Oooh Lovely, Lidya! Is it not magic when it finally goes through correctly and the picture shows up?! Can anyone tell me why, when I post a picture here I do not have to use the " " around the URL but anywhere else on Spring I do?

Hey....I did it....First Try. Next I'll try colors and then links to another website!

HAPPY WEEKEND

You, too!

(and, congratulations!)

First try...blinking and color....am I a genius, or what? NASA ...here I come!! JENNIFER ELHE'S FAN PAGE

Ok...( with sweaty palms) ...I quit ...enough success for one day.. THANKS

guess I can quit watching then...

Congratulations, Evelyn

*lol*

You're getting very good dear! Congrats, Evelyn

Marcia...Karen..... Don't know how to do that. Must be the post graduate course!! :-)

Just like the pictures...find the gif you want (loads of files if you do a search for them - or use greeting card sites like Blue mountain) copy the url, and put it in the command string I sent you. Try it with this url! \ http://www.icq.com/images/index-icons/icon-anim.gif remember to put all the stuff

Lose that stray \ that got misplaced in front of the URL, but just cut and paste the rest to where the dotted line is now.

Try again http://www.icq.com/images/index-icons/icon-anim.gif

Use then use the one I sent on post 67

OK evelyn.... "img src=.........url here" with the pointy brackets around it

Animated gifs are posted no differently from the pictures. When you find them, you just copy the location (url) and plug them into your img src string. It's as easy as:

yup - it is just getting that framework to her and a separate url only to find I mistyped it and on and on. Same frame command.

Thanks ole buddies....I shall practice animation tomorrow. Can't go from kindergarten to post grad in one day!! I do find that Explorer 4 is a bust for image transference....I'm having to use Netscape...which I only normally use for Drool only. Thanks for the gifts URL.....gotta get ready for The Big Day.

Anything we can do to make the day special for ODB we shall do =) Glad you are making so much progress. It is like magic seeing it happen when it unfurls after you hit the submit button and hold your breath, is it not?!

WoW! This practice ground is a good place to visit ;-) CONGRATS, EVELYN!

OK...a new day...now I'll try this one....

One more time:

So cute!!!!

I shall conquer this....one more try....

You're going to have to ask her why that appears. I can't bring it up either. I know which one you are going for.

You are not doing anything wrong.

Funny ...that picture was there last night when I tried it....I tell ya' it's the ghost of Count Almasy.

I want to try this too. Remember: total amateur: (Here goes nothin!)

Hey! It works! Thanks, Karen! 8-D

I'll have you know that I'm using my Boss's Bookmarks for this! How do I transfer records to floppy? (BTW Did you ever follow up that reference I sent? Is it the right one?)

No, KJ, it didn't work. What appeared is a xoom logo, so I assume it was from Meluchie's site and the name that showed was mlsfpost. I don't know if it is because of the frames or what, but this happens a lot at her site. Perhaps she doesn't want linking or downloading??? Wer, do you know what the problem is? KJ, please post the url with the "img src" part, so we can click and go to it. And yes, I did check out the one you sent. It was the one. Thank you, dear. :-) I'm using my Boss's Bookmarks for this! How do I transfer records to floppy? I've never tried to do that. The only method I can think of is slow. Go to each bookmark place and copy the url from window above into a Word document. Maybe there's another way. Yoohoo Tech boys!!

Is this is? and will it work? http://members.xoom.com/_XOOM/firth_place/mlsfpost.jpg

Hmmm, it worked for me. Most perplexing.

Yup, that's it! Only it worked the first time for me. (I.E. : Got the image, not the URL.) Also worked the second time when you did it, but it had the U.R.L. link above it. Intentional?

(Gee, I hope it works for 121. My browser shows the images, but maybe it depends on the recipient's browser??) (Mine's Netscape Communicator) (Actually, my BOSS's is Netscape Communicator!)

KJ, I specifically put the url there for you. Just to verify whether that's where you are getting the images. Now all images have disappeared and been replaced by revolving xoom gifs. What I think is happening is Xoom has very restrictive Terms of Service (TOS), which I perused. Anything displayed must have its xoombar (form of frame). When we link to images stored at xoom, we don't use the xoombar and that constitutes a violation. That's what that xoom gif represents - a TOS violation. Also would be another way of preventing what's called "bandwidth theft." Many clipart websites warn you NOT to link to th ir site, but to download the image. I'm going to check with Meluchie since it is her site that you've been using.

Just practising.....

YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I did it I did it I did it! :-)) Aaah nothing like first time.....

Here goes....?

Hehe. Cool

The interesting thing is that I bookmanrked these two Ad images. I went back to the mlsfad one and got the ad image. Went off somewhere else. came back to it and got the revolving Xoom thing. Went away and got the image back when I returned again. I also have the strong suspicion that not everybody's browser responds to the IMG SRC code the same. The first time I tried here, you said it didn't work, when the image was quite obviously up on my screen. Then today when I reread 121 one of the images w s there and one not, though both showed up when I posted. ????????????? So I'll try to post the mlsf ad image here again, and I would like to find out what you see as well as what I see! Again: Any and all feedback will be quite welcome! (I think I will see if can get this image from another source as well.)

I just got the poster image pop up, not the logo. Anyone else??? (BTW , Elena, I got the "torn corner" logo on Resp. 94, though your first try came through blinking like crazy!) It is a comfort to know I'm not alone with all these posting puzzles... :-)

KJ and everyone else: Do not attempt to post images from Meluchie's site if they are resident on her xoom pages. Images warehoused there cannot be accessed from outside the site. It is a violation of xoom's terms of service and reverts to that revolving logo you now see. Meluchie also uses geocities and tripod. Those will be ok. **It has nothing to do with your browser.** If there is something you really want to post and you can't find it at another site, let me know. I can deal with it another way for you. ;-D

Thought I'd better brush up on my 'skills' *snicker* before the big bash tomorrow. Since we're bringing regional food, would anyone care for some breakfast?

Trying another:
