copy the link in your browser, go to a forum when you want to post, press right mous button, go to BBcode -> Clipboard -> Make Selection URL

all you will have to do is to write the name of the link

Yup, pretty good, its fantastic for those power-surfing moments but I had to remove it when I found out it takes 50+ MB of RAM

(I have a shiznit computer)

That's to bad

ummm, as far as i know the extension shouldn't take that much of RAM away. that's probably your player

ok, having a problem...when i go on other forums, the BBCode option-->smilies only shows me smilies from NFSUnlimited....

like this...

http://www.mangacars.com

on that site, there are ALOT of smilies, but the smilies dont appear on the smilies option...is it because it's not BBCode-supported or it's not a phpBB forum??

i think it is a phpBB forum, so why arent the smilies showing? help...

jemc · Post by **jemc** » 01 Mar 2005, 14:13

because that forum has a different smilies. these here are just for default phpbb forum smilies.

letting the FF extensions aside, im using the SilverSskin 2.6.3 theme for FF, and its really cool...

for those using FF, goto: Tools > Themes > Get More Themes

Just to make it clear for those who desperately want to rip off IE off your computer, remember IE is integrated into Windows since Win95. That means, the windows you open to browse disks, etc. are basically IE. Thats why Mister Glasses had to face a monopoly trial some tima ago.

wowirace · Post by **wowirace** » 06 Mar 2005, 17:02

wait...someone had to face a TRIAL because he removed IE from his computer?

Koffy · Post by **Koffy** » 07 Mar 2005, 00:52

No, no. You got me wrong. Don't worry no FBI/NSA/CIA/KGB/GESTAPO agent is going to rush into your house and teake you away just for trying to uninstall IE.
"Mister Glasses" is the fantasy character known as Bill Gates. (fantasy we wish he where

) He had to face a monopoly tryal, basically because IE was included into Windows, and it did'n allow you to "choose" wich browser to use. Of course you can use a different browser, but you will allways be looking at IE, when using Windows.

oooooooo....right..

EDIT: okay, i've been getting these update stuff on firefox..i dont bother because its all like G-mail stuff, and i dont bother with that. but, now...its saying "Critical Updates" instead of "Updates Available" and the update icon is red instead of green. the critical update is:

Firefox 1.0.1 (en-US) software update

now, im guessing that this is important? but i dont wanna get it because i screwed my computer before...so, since it says critical update, is it MANDATORY to get it? basically, do i have to get it? like, if i dont, will there be a change in my firefoz performance and stuff?
