Netscape 7.1

[Palatka44]

I like using Netscape's browser because it seems to run better than IE on my system. However when in Christian Forums and am replying to posts the smilies choices are smeared off to the right. Is there a setting that I can change that will allow me to view all the smilie choises?
Thanks for your help.

Try posting this in the Suggestions, Bugs, and Help Forum, I do believe there is a fix for this, but they would know best over there.....

No offense, lotsa things run better than IE

Have you tried Opera or Firebird? I hardly ever use IE if I can avoid it :fixed:

Actually, it's Firefox now.....Mozilla had to change the name for some legal reason from what I understand....

thought I heard something about that...

Firefox The Browser, Reloaded...6.2MB

Opera 7.23 ... 3.xMB

Yes I too had troubles with IE. I just use plain old Mozilla, and Firefox is good as well. Netscape (at least after checking up on the sites I work with) is used less than Mozilla at this point.

Try Opera 7.50 preview version 2. I'm using it right now and it works fine. It's fast on dial-up and has lots of features. You can find it at www.opera.com .

Thanks folks for the info but you are not answering my basic question and that is this, Why when using Netscape the smilies choises are smeared off to the right? In all other uses of this browser it runs great, but in Christian Forums there is this one glitch. The glitch does not appear to be a problem in IE, but IE always gives me a message that it has preformed an Illegal action and will be shut down. Netscape does not do this.
Is there a setting that needs to be changed so that this glitch is fixed for Netscape in Christian Forums.

Hey Palatka44,

Excuse my thickheadedness... could you post a screenshot demonstrating your smeared smilies? Sometimes a picture is worth...

Is your "view" setting at something other than 100%, like say, 70% or 130% zoom?

I'd also be concerned w\IE crashing like that. What OS are you on?

 

[Striver]

Yes a screenshot would help a bit in this situation, from what you're describing (at least I think) I feel this might be just an issue with the browser more so than anything else at this point.

i love firefox

So how do you do a screenshot?

Windows 98 se and I've tried different view settings and I still get the same effect on the smilies.

So how do you do a screenshot?

Screen Print & Capture 32 3.5 ---->2.71MB

OR

Screen Capture for Windows

There are two options for screen capturing on windows. Both of these copies a picture of the screen to the clipboard, and then must be pasted in another program to be seen. The first one will copy the whole desktop (this will copy the whole visible screen) and the second one will copy just the active window (this will copy only the part of the screen containing the program you are currently working on.

To copy the whole desktop picture follow these instructions.

Make your desktop how you want it to appear in the picture, and then press the Print Screen key (it is located in the upper right corner of the keyboard directly above the arrow keys. (this action will copy the picture to your clipboard, the clipboard is a place in memory that stores information that has been recently copied)

Open up any image editing program and paste the image by using the paste shortcut, (hold down the Control button and press the V button). For this part you can use any editing program you desire, Adobe Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, Microsoft Image Composer.

Edit, change, and save your image.

To copy only the desired active window follow these instructions.

Make your current active window how you want it to appear in your picture, hold down the Alt key and press the Print Screen key. (this action will copy the window into the clipboard)

Open up any image editing program and paste the image by using the paste shortcut (hold down the Control button and press the V button). For this part you can use any editing program you desire, Adobe Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, Microsoft Image Composer.

Edit, change, and save your image.

a little late... found some notes from awhile back, was looking for a "better than basic windows screencap" utility. For what it's worth :

HoverSnap v0.8
http://www.hoverdesk.net/freeware.htm

HoverSnap is a a free handy snapshot tool with jpg, png, bmp and gif support.HoverSnap can take snapshots of the full screen, active window or a selected area. It can even capture layered windows (alphablended ones under 2K / XP). You can even FTP upload your screenshots !

You can set up the capture folder / filename and format.
You can reduce the capture size.
Auto-generate filename option will add the time stamp (date/time) to your filename in order to be able to take several captures without having to change the filename.
Optional sound when capture is done.
HoverSnap is FREE for personal use only !
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
UltraSnap --- $25 US
Very good product...
http://www.mediachance.com/ultrasnap/index.html

UltraSnap was originally written for internal purpose, to speed up process of creating multimedia presentations, manuals and web pages and to simplify sending digital photos by e-mail. Because it performed beyond any expectations we decided to make it available for public.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
TNT Screen Capture --- $45 US
Another cadillac utility (others will get you there for less, but the leather seats are nice)
http://www.helpandmanual.com/tnt.htm
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I can find some other notes, and I can finish it, I'll post a homemade (very basic, but free) screencap utility...

Firefox.

 

[Palatka44]

Sorry, I could not get the screenshot to post.

Thought that you could load an image on the page here. Looks like you have to have it up on the web somewhere, then link to it, or look down the page a little on the "reply to thread" page... Additional Options... Attach Files...

Testing the last option here...


OK... that's the ticket, it werkz <=^)

I'm running netscape 7.1 and have the same problem with the smiles. At the bottom of the smiles is a link that says [more]. Click this and a little window with all the smiles and a few extras will pop up. That's how I got around the problem, but there may actually be a way to solve it, too. I'll work on getting a screenshot to post.
