That is exactly where it is and what you have to do, Thank you :yesnod:

Nice shots Dan ^*^


I tried to post this from Safari 4 but the Smilies wouldn't work so I'm using IE8 in a new clean install of W7 x64.
The copy of W7 I was using was old & busted :yesnod:


Safari 4 did install this time w/o any problems, I have been checking it out a bit, it is a bit different from IE8.

Here are a few screen shots I took, to share.

I got one with the 3

I am getting more use to Safari now haven used a few times now.
This last time it started up realllly slow, realllllly, reallllly slow, probably took 5-7 seconds to get beyond the white screen.

I am using it now w/ this post.
One has to revert to the old way of copying text/URL from ImageSgack I found out (no Ctrl+C) using Safari there.

:geek:
Smilies not working but one can type in the BBCode tho.

I like the Top Sites as one can just (double) click on the picture & go there

Edit: I just tried opening 4 different thumbnails (open to a new tab) & they all failed w/ the graphic... the adds work though :lol:

One thing I've seen that people list as a "bug" with top sites is that it basically goes to the website and loads the page for you. If that page uses sessions of some sort (ie. forum), it will log you as visiting, and as I'm sure people remember with phpbb2 as the forum, not everywhere will hold unread posts/items between logins, so if you don't go to the site on the top sites page, you can lose out on new posts and articles, depending upon how the sites remember login info. Luckily most forum software remembers unread posts between visits now, but could still be an issue at places.
