<blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr><p>Why? Is it causing your browser to do something? Or you just don't like what it says?<p><hr></blockquote><p>Did you write that? If so, why make it so wordy? It's two lines long on my Mac and I have a 24" monitor.<br><br>I just made a suggestion, in what I thought was the feedback forum, about abreviating the copy. If you think that what is there is better, far be it from me to create an issue.<br><br>I think the subtext is fine. I just thought two lines was a bit long. But hey, whatever.<br><br><br><br>

No, I didn't write that. Neil did.<br><br>I was just wondering why you thought it needed changing, as in curiosity, not "Hey! Why are you asking such things?!" type. Sorry if it got lost in the typing.<br><br><br><br>my photos
