Gotten over 9000 hits on my hit counter!
Gotten three times as many content submissions for my site's Hate Mail page!
Been contacted by the Prince of Nigeria via email.

In short: Install these BBCodes! They will change your life and turn you into the single most popular person in your neighborhood.

I didn't quote anything.. . . not sure what you mean.

Sorry, mistyped. Not 'quote' but posted URL:

 

[Testing123]

Sorry, not quote, but URL.
Both of the Links you posted in that 1st message seem to point to the same message.

Oh. No, the thread is automatically made when a resource is posted. Not guilty

 

[Testing123]

Um, not sure what you mean here.
Here's a pic of what I'm seeing:



Both of those links point to the same message.
Just wondering why it's referenced twice in your message.

 

[Lisa]

It's an automatically generated thread.

Got it now.. Sorry for being slow on the uptake.

All Classics !

Blinking Text and scrolling marquees - oh my!
is there a demo ?

 

[Justin]

The demo was disabled on TAZ apparently it's not enjoyed.

Sometimes I kinda miss the old blink tag. Anybody else remember back in the old days when forums used HTML and some bozo would forget to close his container and the whole page would blink until he signed back on and fixed it? Jeesh!

No. Forget what I said about missing it.

I'll take a snapshot of it today.

 

[Danielx64]

I really dont miss the blinking text but I dont mind the scrolling text: as long as it not the entire page and that it was used for showing new flash etc.

 

[Lisa]

Added demo image to main resource page.

This thread ==> Lord. Have. Mercy! bahahaha
Nice share Morganna - I'm sure some insane persons will appreciate it. I'd install them all on JPiC if dust ceased to exist

Okay. 3 cheers to the song that sparked the utter madness that some of us old fogies refer to as the 90s...

 

[Lisa]

That was released in 1987
