Choking

Tuesday, November 10, 2009 by eagleyelgae | Discussion: Community

Don't want to be negative but I am beginning to choke on the quantity of three or so uploaders of mediocre dreams/screensavers/bootskins/logons/wallpapers.  Filtering through this stuff to find the gems is becoming more difficult and some good skins are being swallowed in the sheer mass of numbers.  What is up with this quantity vs quality stuff?  Is there a prize or something?

Davebax, what browser are you using? at 1680 wide you should have extra space on both sides...I believe the page is setup for 1024 wide screens. You may have "zoomed" the page in past and not reset it.

Try this......hold down the CTRL key and scroll the mouse wheel back and forth.....

It's time to hit the hay now but tomorrow night I will post a shot. I will look for this thread but if I can't find it I will start a different one, thanks all.

 

Will talk again soon Seth as it has been a very bad day today, all day.

Sorry to hear that, Dave. You know my number. Don't hesitate.

I can't show the menu bar I'm talking about as it doesn't show on this XP computer but is on my home computer with Vista and win7. This is a shot of the top of any of my pages when I go into a gallery. screen shot

If you go to your account settings page you can change it to 100 skins per page.

No problem gm. Thanks CG1, I changed it to 24 but the top is still there and isn't a big deal. Actually I don't think it's a AD as it appears to be just a description of what ever Gallery you visit.

I will post a screen shot tonight showing the menu on my home computer. It's not a problem, but since it's there with a drop down menu, I would like to know what it says and where it takes you when you click on it.

OK, here is that menu you I asked about. I think it takes you to different skins like, highest rated, etc. Any suggestions? Also it can't be dragged or moved. SCREEN SHOT LINK

You are using Opera, right? Not sure if it's supported yet.

DaveBax
Reply #33 Wednesday, November 11, 2009 7:13 PM

Yes, but I use it on my work computer with XP and it's not there. Let me try it on IS with my screen resolution and see if it's there. Will be right back.

Good call and thanks. It's not there using IE. We all use different browsers and I have been using opera since it came out years ago. Usually everything is fine and I'm sure not worrying about the menu but at least I know why it's there.Thanks again I appreciate it but I just feel a bit stupid for not thinking to try it in IE myself and waisting everyones time.

It was just a bit of tongue-in-cheek and no offense was intended.  Sorry if anyone was offended or hurt.

You didn't waste anyone's time, Dave. Everyone on this thread wanted to help. No one considered it a waste of time, so relax.

Yes you are correct Doc. I had help for so many years and don't have it now at home anymore, so again yes I can turn to the fine people here that wish to help when I have a question.

They say the pen is mightier than the sword... in this case, a keyboard.   Oh well, give him a bowl or two of curried cabbage and he'll be on the up and up even faster.
