[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] [QUOTE] Nah that's ok. I like it. I find it better because it takes less time to load the picture. [/QUOTE]Actually, no, it doesn't. It still has to load the entire picture, so the length of time taken to download it is the same. It just means you can fit it all on one page, if you desire (although I find it pixellates it badly enough to make enlarging the picture mandatory). It's a new feature for IE5.5, BTW. I have to agree too, the Ent-C bridge is a bit of an anachronism compared to the STVI Ent-A, Excelsior, and Generations Ent-B sets. The ST V one would be fine without those later ones, but as it is, this is a nice solution. It fits in greatly with the Ent-B and Ent-D, although I think it terms of comfort it possibly leans slightly too much towards the Enterprise-D. Roddenberry (and early dialogue) seems to imply that the Galaxy class was the first to go all out for the "technology unchained" thing, to increase comfort levels and all that. And I know it's a dead point, and this is all I want to say on the matter, but Sean, people were being fairly reasonable. Yeah, people expect lots of images here, but downloading lots of large images at once over a slow modem is a pain, especially if there's a cut off point which means you don't get the whole image. And the other complain - about it messing up the board layout - is also fairly valid. Although I don't think there are any hard and fast rules about embedded pictures, a generally accepted rule is that if the picture is so large that people are having to scroll across to read the text on posts, then it is too big. And finally, yeah, the two hour thing is a new feature if this version of UBB. It's not a bug. The idea is that, basically, Charles hates changing the past. I think he read 1984 a lot, or something. You can edit a post 10 minutes after you've made it, and it won't mention that it's been editted (if you are correcting spelling mistakes, or whatever). People have posted stuff before, others have responded to it, and then the person has changed their original post, leading to all sorts of confusion and madness. Hence, you can't edit your posts ages after you posted them. [/QB][/QUOTE]
