Bigger textboxs.... Increase Your PM Length

IMO it will make posting just more comfortable, and i'm sure it is easy to change.

Tired of ads?

I'd quite like the little window at the bottom of the page that you use to review the thread to be a little larger.

that's because you're used to it. I felt quite uncomfortable in the beginning, and I think many newbies do. there's no reason to keep the boxes that small, so I vote for expansion, as always

Newbies need to learn how to adapt to new and uncomfortable situations. We can't be expected to hold their hands every step of the way.

I think there should be someway to do this with the mighty Proxomitron Magic... I'll have a look, I have nothing else to do at 5 am.

Oh well... Proxomitron crashed, I could get the filter to work but I hadn't optimized it yet... Here you go, anyway. Download Proxomitron from http://www.proxomitron.cjb.net , configure it so that it works on your computer, and then just add this to your filter file:

Name = "Apolyton textbox largener"
Active = TRUE
Multi = TRUE
URL = "*apolyton.net/cgi-bin/ubb/postings.cgi*"
Limit = 16
Match = "ROWS=15 COLS=55"
Replace = "ROWS=25 COLS=75"

(If you want to make it even larger, fiddle with the numbers in the Replace section. I'll optimize the filter tomorrow.)

And BTW, PH, who do you think you are to call people newbies... Look at that 2000 under your username .

Good.
edit : Good, the edit textboxes were changed too.

Another goal is achieved on the way of making Apolyton exactly the way I want it.
