This is in direct response to Neb's (and others') request:

For all posters: Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT post text in excess of an 800 pixel screen. Any posts with text so big that it requires any member to have to scroll horizontally back and forth to view the rest of the posts on the page will be deleted without further notice.

Guys, this is just plain RUDE. Have a little consideration for other members here! Not everyone has monitor resolutions of 1600 x 1200!

Thanks,

Thanks, Cloudy! Actually, I just edited my message to read "800 pixels" since I remembered that Ironworks is set to 800 x 600, rather than 640 x 420.

Cheers,

Oh GOOD! I hate side-to-side scrolling. VERY irritating! Good one, Sazerac!

I think the 800 is right. I just know that having to scroll across to get the last few words is a pain! Lots of people have that problem so we should be considerate when posting.

Thanks, Saz. It is so annoying, especially when you're posting a lot on that thread. I've found it often happens when people enlarge text, so people, make sure your line isn't too long if you're enlarging

It's fine to use large size text, such as with the < h1 > type tags. Just please remember to break the line! Writing text that goes on for 200 or more characters with no breaks is just asking for trouble.

Thanks,

of course, when i have to scroll back and forth, you know its REALLY bad! my res is 1600x1280 for crying out loud!

------------------
It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.


What are you saying? Are you trying to tell me you have feelings now? Ha, ha, ha... Stop acting as if you're sad. And there's no need to act as if you're angry either. Because, Cloud, you are... a puppet.
