Good Morning All!

As always - great pics from everyone - Hikers, the Yuccas are spectacular :)^
TH eaglets seem to be doing fine with their new "blings"
Marti - It took a little while to get comfortable with the new look for me, the yellow posts are harder on my eyes.

Hope everybody has a great one today - Our lucky "Easties" are having a CRUZER GET TOGRTHER!

Hi Scott, I think it is a combination for me - the small print and colors. I know others have eye problems so.....

Have a great Memorial Day Weekend. Never Forget.

Hi Scott, It's so cool you post over here too..

Well I just finished my last Hebrew class until August or October.

I'm not sure when I will start the next session.

I should start it in August so I keep the language fresh.

I want to study over the summer or I should say I need
to study over the summer. Maybe my grandchildren will help me! <3

Hey, Marti! If you go up to 'preferences' and to board settings you can 'choose a theme' and to back to 'zeta original' - looks really 'bland' compared to 'nellow' but if it's easier on your eyes, that's the important thing so that you can visit/post over here regularly ;-)

:}^ - Hi, TOPA! I prefer the blue background but it's nice we have the choice! And I have a couple of baby pix from Mother's Day that are on my cam begging to be 'let out' ... trying to 'be good' and accomplish something before 'playing' .... boiling eggs for a boat party/cruise tomorrow afternoon - I'm the 'designated deviled egg person' - not so bad for a dozen peeps but tiresome for a crowd of 20 or more....
Happy Sunday Everyone!

A dark/black background is actually environmentally friendly too, see www.blackle.com
I agree its not so good for small print tho.

Joanie, baby pictures???!!! oh yeah!

this is just awful, I urge all people reading this to contact the Indonesian consular office in your country to ensure the public outcry is heard.

Tamara the orangutan, formerly of Perth Zoo in Australia, was released into the wild over a year ago– and now her ex-keepers are going out to see how she’s doing!

The segment also features some brief interviews with the man responsible for enforcing Indonesia’s anti-deforestation laws. Watch him smile and laugh hysterically as he admits to doing absolutely nothing to stop the palm oil companies from destroying the forest…

Good morning to all.

I have started checking in on chat on the IWS site.

The problem is, it is killing my eyes and I go back out of self defense.

The background is dark.

My eyes are really protesting! :unsure:

Is anyone else having the same thoughts?

I always hit "bigger" twice to get the size I am used to on CHIL. The CHIL background is always white, so I can choose my colors that work. ]


Evidently some do not like the IWS dark background (like me) and clicked on the "white background" option. Then those who are operating in the dark background get dark print on a dark background. And if you are reading posts with a white background, all the colors are too light.:unsure:

I'm not being critical. I want to be able to read all the postings. Maybe when the new software comes out this will be solved. Just wanted you to know, I'm here, but my eyes are going south.
:D
And those of us using the white background cannot not read the yellow colored text. So what I do is Highlight that text and it reverses the color. Try it and see if it works for you, too.

It took me some time to get used to this blue background Marti. Now it's ok. But I don't make the time to use different colors or fonts like most of you do (I don't know how you all find the time & still get other stuff done!) :P
[color]And I'm wishing everyone would also click the "Bigger" button before posting. The 'oldsters' here know about my two cornea transplants (not inplants) and the larger font makes life so much easier. Thanks.[/color] :)^

HELP!!!!!
Anyone here know of anything we can do to speed up the load of each new page from right to left?????? I've been told that it's probably my computer but it does it on 2 PCs and 1 Notebook and well as my daughter's PC in another house! So I don't think it's my computer and I'm using DSL.
It's really one of the reasons I'm not over here very often. It just uses up too much time.
