Re: It's snowing!!!

Todays forecast is 40C - 104 F. 45C in Sydney's western suburbs. That's about 113F. We'll take some of that heat, please. Today's forecast high is -17C / 1.4F. Wind chills right now are around -29C/-20F. We broke a low temp record yesterday; I'm not sure about today. Monday is supposed to get above...

Assigned. Thank you.
Best to ask the person mentioned in the MW. Updating from my phone so can't check the name here.

Re: New Forums Help Thread

So ... it's gone from a discrete green dot (which I knew about) to a "ONLINE" banner for the user (which for some reason is on the right not the left (but that's okay), but the formatting options have changed from being descriptive (URL, LIST etc.) to a random tiny image. Seriously - when ...

Re: ~[TRAVEL] The Travels of Ibn Batuta by Ibn Batuta - tg

Done. I don't know if you put the intro/preface info in one of the sections (I would assume so). I dragged it up to its proper place. There wasn't anything unusual/surprising/different in the original thread, so I think you're OK. :) Thank you. I did put the preface at the bottom (so as not to diso...

Re: Can't Download Pollyanna (version 2)

Archive occasionally results in these warnings because there is so much stuff on their servers.
As I know that the librivox stuff is fine I just "ignore the warning and proceed".

Re: Covermakers Chat Thread

Hi,
I have 2 projects in the final stages if anyone wants to claim the covers.
Jules Verne's Meridiana; and
18th Century A Cruising Voyage Around the World
Both books have a plethora of beautiful illustrations that you could use for the covers.
Cheers

Re: New Forums Help Thread

One needed fix - Please can the MW (and all other links) open in a new tab? That's not possible. In fact, opening links in the same tab/window is standard now. You can workaround this by right-clicking the link and then selecting "open in a new tab". AARGH .. That is just plain annoying w...

Thank you Tricia. I have pm'd Patty. She is currently traveling, but right now there is no rush.

I was a bit surprised when I opened the forum and there was a new screen this morning!! It took a bit of getting used to. One needed fix - Please can the MW (and all other links) open in a new tab?

FYI - where the wrong translator has been given I just picked up the correct one from a previous file (rather than having to wait for a re-record) Ch 4.
