You know, I've been meaning to ask if there's a way to "thank" on pts when I'm on my phone.  I'm usually on my phone messing around on pts working during the day and it's frustrating not being able to "thank" right away and I always mean to go back and thank when I eventually get on my computer or iPad, but then I'll get caught up in the latest discussions.   Ok, let me stop with my  :ecomcity: and hopefully, someone can  :sign0085:

I was hoping that someone else would answer this because I'm sure that I'm doing it wrong!

When I first used PTS on my phone, it looked really different and it scared the bejeebus out of me because I knew I would only be able to access via my phone for 3 weeks. I scrolled to the bottom of the page and there was some message or button about viewing the full site. When I clicked that, PTS opened exactly as it does on my phone, so then I just used the thank button like I do when I'm on my laptop.

The buttons are teeny tiny, but if I turn my phone sideways, they're manageable.

Is it wrong that when I saw this picture, for a split second, I wondered if the person who worked on this Dolce window had been inspired by this pic of Rob on the set of The Rover.   You see the similarities?  huh? huh?  :sign0151:





I have looked very closely at both pics - very closely! - and after much consideration, I can see some similarities.

However, I think SAF might have more in common with the first picture - plastic, hard-faced, no emotions...

This pic doesn't fit the topic, but it made me giggly

Ok Who ever it was that rec'd Comp sem 101 ( I think it was either Ella, or DD),  I LOVE YOU  .  Loved that story.  I was really able to relate to how Bella was feeling.  I have felt the same way she has before her weight loss being once over-weight myself (Losing over 150 lbs myself).  It really made me appreciate all my hard work that i have done all over again.   :-*  :-*  :-* 

150lbs! That is amazing! You should feel so proud of yourself!

How did you do it and how long did it take?

I'm still shredding and although I haven't actually gone down much on the scales, I am getting comments all the time about how much weight I have lost and some of my clothes are getting very loose, so I must be toning up - even on nights like tonight when I have a glass of milk and three Rum & Raisin tim tams for dinner!

What? Raisins are a fruit!

And I have my audit tomorrow - I needed the kind of love that only tim tams can give!

So I've been reading Blood & Glory... and I'm loving it, I love the action and the stutter!!!

I have been reading too much fanfic!

I saw "stutter" but read "shutter" and thought "shudder".  :-[

I might need an intervention!

I just spent the whole night going over the part deux thread posts from January and I nearly died laughing from the whole lemon juice on the lady flower debacle! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D I was laughing so hard I had to use my inhaler. My son now thinks I have truly lost it and the dogs left the room in fright. That was some seriously funny stuff.

I am totally gonna use Fanta pants as often as I can possibly work that into conversations!!  I nearly fell out of my chair laughing at that! :D :D :D :D :D :D

I really love you guys!  :-*

I'm just glad Lemony Firecrotch never became a popular nickname!

I'll stick with Pervy Knickers, that you very much!

Yep - 30 Day Shred.

I had to take a week off while my feet recovered from wearing heels to a conference and then I decided to stick with Level 1 and Level 2 for a while so I have not yet graduated to Level 3 - I plan on waiting until I am on holidays...in case I can't move for a week!

I am just amazed at how much more energy I have - I've never felt anything like it before!

I hate the new FFn layout! And to make it worse flagfic won't download from there right now, so I'm stuck with their ugly font and crappy new theme :banghead: It looked so much better before.

I hadn't been on since the weekend, and have only had a quick look and play, but so far, I like it! (So, there is something we disagree on  ;)) The fic font looks the same, and the font in the little fic summary box looks cleaner to me.

I also like the new search button.

And flagfic is working for me too.  :P

And now that I've gloated and rubbed your nose in it, I'm having an early night - I have a feeling I'll be awake at around 3:00 - audits do that to me, even though I know our financial and health & safety controls are super tight!  :-[

It just looks so bulky, clumsy almost? Not a fan. The story doesn't start until halfway down the page!

Flagfic is working now, you're right - apparently the guy fixed it so Twitter says. That'll teach me to post before checking for updates!

I swear that I don't see much of a difference! Here's what I'm seeing:



Have you tried changing the font size or the width that you're viewing it at?

I generally use the dark background. My problem right now is that the summary text is black (as are other parts like the "favorite" in front of that small box) - so I have trouble reading that. I switched to the light background - only to find the story itself is still in white. :D I preferred the old layout, but the best was the one years back before the summary box.

Just been over there to look, and tried flagfic, it downloaded the story so they must have fixed the glitch.

Urgh! You're right. You can change the font on the story pages on FF, doesn't make it much better, it was still huge so what I've done is just shrunk the whole page. At least on Firefox if you press the CTRL plus - (or +) you can alter the overall size of the web page you're on. I usually do that on FF.net.

I'm gonna have to, mine looks like:


which is annoying. I'll change some settings and check then. It might be the browser I'm using, too.
