How do you post links?

Sunday, December 29, 2002 by Orion | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I've searched the site for help on this, but I can't find any. How do you post links in forum messages and in the comments section of skins that you upload?

Thanks in advance...

Ande...'1337' is 'leet', as in 'elite'...meaning some people once thought it was highly sophisticated to be able to type in strange characters, etc when all it really meant was that they were sad little boys with too much time on their hands....

BTW....QLD doesn't use Daylight-saving cos it fades the Windowblinds....that's a sad indictment if ever I heard one....

"1337" = "leet" = "elite" Yes,Yes I can see the connection.
Any more like that?

Why does the US call summer time 'daylight saving'? It doesn't save any daylight, the day is the same length whatever...

It doesn't extend the total amount of daylight in a given day but it does extend or 'save' light from early in the morning when we typical folk are sleeping and adds it to the end of the day when the same folk are still awake.

They do it here so that the children aren't standing in the dark waiting for the school bus.
At least that's how it was explained to me.

Actually, winter time is the original clock, summer time ("daylight saving") is when they add one hour, so you have more light during the summer and thus "save" on energy. Remember, this thing was born during the energy crises of the seventies or so (long before my times).

Then again, I could be completely wrong.

By the way, Ande, try typing a slash, followed by an 'm', an 'e' and a space and then your message. That's how you get that red text.

Actually the idea for Daylight Savings Time came from a humorous article by Benjamin Franklin, while he was visiting Paris. You can read all about it here. http://webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/index.html
