It's back!!!!! Now that I've become addicted to the arcade on the TM-Creative forum, blah, guess you'll have to share me.

Its going to take some getting used - I can't believe I'm saying this but the big font scares me! I'm so used to peering at the screen the words literally jump out at me :-)
Ah, I see it does not automatically insert smiley icons....
But it does automatically insert paragraphs that do not show up on the preview ??? - which can be sorta of annoying, will have to figure out the formatting rules.
So what did everyone do on the WC recess? I made an anti - Harper video and posted it on YouTube
.
Inserting URL's is a snap though! To make it open in another window click on the the little earth up on the tool bar and set the target to New Window.
Off to figure out how to put a new avatar in my profile....

LBMuskoka,

Yes!

Large font is both great and scary, LB
I could barely navigate before... guess I will have to do some homework...LOL

Hey!! I'm here! So good to see you all! Facebook just isn't the same.

Anyone for coffee? It's great to be back, isn't it? It looks like the order of the User list changes when we post. This is going to be so much fun, figuring this all out.

HI P3 and Birthstone :)

Maybe the user list changes when folks log in, not when they post. Interesting... let's keep an eye on it.

i've spent all my off time back at a star wars forum i posted at before i became wondersigh... there are lots of americans there and i've been learning lots about the american election. i probably won't be there at all after the american election comes to an end, i'm guessing...

Coffee's on & cinnamon buns - you can count on me! There is extra frosting on the buns to celebrate.
I've been working, reading the paper, and dying to discuss the elections. I was really missing that!

Hi - Yes, the user list changes according to who is active on-line. Those of you scared by the big font :-) Have you tried to enlarge text function at the top right corner. The default is the middle way, so you might try decreasing the text size.

Well, here I am. It has been a long few days. I will be stumbling along looking how to use everything. Welcome back everyone. Life's questions were not answered in the last few days.

I'm actually not sure I'm liking this new format but I think it's cause I'm not used to it. Thanks for tell me how to get smaller font :-) There have been a couple people who've tried to explain how to get paragraphs but I still don't see what they're talking about.
So for the party, here's some coffee cake and (since it's still morning) orange juice!

Hello all my WC friends!
I guess it'll take awhile for me to navigate my way around here. It's nice to really see people's avatars and to read the type without eyestrain. I'll have one of those warm cinnamon bums and a coffee (and coffee cake and OJ since it's virtual). I have a whole bowl of lime wedges ready and am lobbing a few at various posters who shall go unmentioned. 80)

Hey, we can "flag as offensive" kewl. Don't abuse it!! This launch has happened just as I was starting to get a life..... Twitter isn't at all satisfactory even though I can post a gif.

Welcome to everybody. I hope the crazyhearth is still around. I have a few logs to put on the fire.
Duck redhead incoming lime wedge.
It seems like whenever I pushe the enter button is creates a space between the lines maybe that is how you do paragraphs.

Guess what that doesn't show up when I post just when I originally type weird I will have to try double spacing. Or we might have to break down and ask for help.

I must admit though, I'm not liking this whole lack of formatting.
See? I pressed enter! Where's the space?

Hello all my WC friends!
I I'll have one of those warm cinnamon bums and a coffee
Ha ha ha! I love typos on a cold October morning...

whoah...I'm experimenting
No idea what I did...

It seems if you change the "input format" at the end of the page here you can get paragraph breaks.
Let me check that out.
Hopefully there are line breaks now.
LoveJoy
Posted on: 10/09/2008 12:21
NOPE!
LoveJoy
Posted on: 10/09/2008 12:22
Okay how incredibly weird. You have to choose it every time (the second html option)
Then you get paragraph breaks.
I think.

Yes, you certainly shouldn't have to do it everytime. We're working on this one.

Hi All,
For some bizarre reason John Byner keeps showing up.
Ahahahahahahaha.
Anyway.
There are odd times when a weird page comes up with all these weird links to dating and hotels and real estate and what not. All Wonder this and Wonder that. Anyone else getting that?

Hi John,
Yes, others are getting those wierd poacher pages. We're getting enough questions I should probably make it a separate thread. Thanks, Aaron

Okay people, there was a terrible spelling mistake in the post I made this morning, but now it's gone!!!!!! I edited it this evening despite logging off and turning off my computer. How cool is that?

I can't find the "imput format" either.
LBmuskoka
Posted on: 10/09/2008 19:13
I can't find the "imput format" either.
It is at the bottom of the screen, just above the Save and Preview Buttons.
What is weird is that you can't use the nice looking quote box when you use the Full HTML feature - or at least it doesn't look good in the preview.
And it doesn't look good when you post it either ;-)

Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts.

Hi Musicsoothes, Thanks for keeping the fire going at this relaunch party. I was thrown out yesterday when I pressed the wrong key. Rather a dissappointment . Poor klutzy me.
