There is now a "Style" setting in your Preferences where you can choose Dark or Grey mode, if the bright white background is burning your retinas

Ahhhhhhhhh.............sweet relief......

I can change the emoji size.

Me too!

I finally looked up magenta and puce. Magenta is a garish purplish red, and puce is a grubby purplish brown. Probably not a good choice for font and field colors.

Is this what we're doing now?

The big question is...
Will people feel slighted if they get a instead of a for a reaction???

Love the fact that CelloDan gave me a on that... Lol

[5K Qs]

So far I'm missing the pair of arrows that used to let me jump to top or bottom of a page from anywhere on the page. I found that quite handy. With the new BF software, there seems to be an up-arrow that takes me to the top of a page, but does anyone have a tip for how to jump to the bottom of a page (other than simply scrolling down until I get there)?

I was going to go with an emoji-free post, but I decided to include this one for JohnDF :

I noticed Postimages adding ads to certain links. I fixed it by pasting the links into a text editor first, removing the extra stuff, then pasting the link into the forum software. You should be able to figure out what is for your image and what is extra by looking at it. Not sure that will work in your situation, but maybe something to consider.

Whats a text editor?

I can change the emoji size.

How'd you do that?

Whats a text editor?

On my iPad I use “Notes”, on a Windows computer I would use “Notepad”. I don’t know the Android equivalent.

Same way as for text: I highlighted it and then clicked the font size icon. (looks like the default size is 15) so select a number bigger or smaller.

I‘ve tried to replicate what I saw on your post in the Beverages and Blades thread. If I post just the direct link in the reply box here, it ends up with that Imgur box around it. If I copy the BB code from Imgur, or post the direct link using the image icon above, it posts just the image (like normal).

So this:

Or this:

Gives you this:

Edited to add: rbeggs I guess it would help to ask, how were you copying the link from Imgur, and how were you pasting it here?

Thanks! I never thought of emojis as "font"
