The real problem with Amazon is that Tuskan Whole Milk is still currently unavailable! :(

If you haven't seen this before, you must check out the reviews! Hilariousness abounds! :D

OK, that is one of the funniest things I have ever seen...

Well I was curious to see whether this enormous fan base for the Prequels and Clone Wars stuff really exists. Perhaps I am an old fossil.

So I went to theforce.net which most people seem to think is the definitive fan site, and looked at the forums:

11,000 topics in classic star wars

5,000 topics in prequels

2,000 topics in clone wars

OK, so clearly we must make allowance for the new stuff being newer. Nonetheless, I feel pretty confident in stating that the classic star wars are still more popular than the prequels and clone war things.  (Another data point, box office for the clone wars movie was low).

Erm, in the CSS it says

.FormContentTitleInput {
	width : 60%;
	height : 14px;
	overflow : auto;
}

so the height is absolutely specified...

and why are you using a Textarea for a single line input?

Yes, it is Firefox 3, on Windows 2000.

Indeed, it seems to increase the size of the text box with text size, but not to a big enough size.

I turned off Firefox "minimum font size" (advanced) but that doesn't help.

My default font is set to Lucida Sans Unicode, size 14. Changing it to 12 doesn't help (in fact you seem to be overriding all the default fonts).

Um ... what can I say... it's nearly a bog standard ff3 install ... I disabled all add-ons...

After logging in, there is a pause. You seem to be relying on timed Javascript redirects. OK, but please show us a link to immediately go to the original page, as it's usually too slow for me.

Thanks.

I haven't watched them for a couple of years. Overexposed and soured... :/

I think this is focussing too much on technical aspects. The main thing they needed was better scripts. Secondly, some decent direction of actors. The rest of it would follow, including that a good script would not include such silliness as jokey robot soldiers and absurd love scenes, and the actors would have more to work with. Most of the cast being at least competent in other movies.

Another place to try for future reference, is archive.org.

They archive the whole web.

As you can see in this screenshot, somehow the topic title edit box is too short to fit the text. My font is set to minimum font size 12 in Firefox 2

Is there a way to list my own posts/threads? Or any users for that matter? Looking around I can't see any search beyond the basic ...

Just to finalise a point here - my res is 1152 x 864. That doesn't mean I give all of it to the browser window.

The forums are getting worse with all the multitude of stickied/announcement posts - often it's one and a half windows worth of headers to get to the real content.

Well keep up the incremental work - eventually you should have a compelling package hopefully.

I think I've lost all interest in star wars. The whole thing has just left a sour taste in my mouth and I can't enjoy watching them anymore. Partially my own fault of course. Even if there comes a decent OOT release I don't want to pay any more money for it.

Nice. Thanks Jay.
