........

And is there a message limit before you can only receive replies?

. . . . . . What? You mean, is there a limit in how many PMs you can send? If so, then yes. It's twenty per hour. (I've hit it many times before, and also, I'm still trying to wake up so if I sound extraordinarily stupid, sorry.)

No, I meant "Is there a limit to your message inbox?"
"In the meantime, no one should roam the camp alone. Use the buddy system."
"Understood." Will looked at Nico. "Will you be my buddy?"
"You're a dork," Nico announced.

I don't believe so.  Last time I checked, Corny had, what, 6,000 messages?  And she's still able to PM.

Skarzs, is the font automatically set for your replies? Because I have to click [Font] and change it to my font, which is annoying every time.
rrrrr.....

Ho arr, mateys, swimming is fun!

I had shrimp 'n' hotroot soup today.


The Skarzs

What I have done is typed [.font=lucidablackletter], copied it, and just paste it before every reply. Don't need the [./font] for it to work for me.

Cave potato.

Sky also doesn't use the [./font] tag and her High Tower Text works fine as well, but I use the BBC tag for speed almost every time, so my ending tag shows up.

I have Microsoft Word and I also don't have Lucida Blackletter among my fonts, though I have about eight other Lucida something-or-others.  I have the 2010 version of Microsoft Office, if that makes any difference.

I'd suggest uploading it to YouTube.  (I think that would entail using an editing program to put the audio file with a picture or video, 'cause they don't accept plain audio files.)  There's probably other ways, but that's what I know I would do.

That's a good idea, also, I believe YouTube offers a video editor of sorts on their website. Not sure and can't check at the moment, but I believe they do in the "Creator Studio".

Hmm. I was hoping there would be another way besides YouTube. But if not, oh well.

Thanks!!

I seem to remember James using something else in the past to demonstrate his bird's squawking. I'll see if I can find that post.
EDIT:
Found it:

I've alluded in the past to our dog and how loud it is, how much it moans, etc., etc. Just reading about it doesn't give you a clue how bad it is. It's somewhat difficult to get a recording of this, as she seems to have a tendency to clam up as soon as I turn a recorder on, but I've managed it. Here, for your listening torment, it is. If you choose to listen to this, make sure you turn down your volume as low as it can go without being completely mute, and wear headphones if at all possible.

I know it sounds like the dog is being tortured with a branding iron, but the only thing that's happening is that the bird is squawking. If we play anything that's remotely musical or noisy, the bird will start to squawk. If there's another bird outside, the bird squawks. Sometimes the bird will squawk with no provocation at all. And if the bird squawks, and the dog is within range to hear it, the dog moans. Loudly. The only solace is that if anyone were to die in their sleep, we can be sure it wouldn't be for long since the combined noise from these two is enough to wake anything that hasn't either already gone deaf or completely decomposed.
Apparently, https://instaud.io is a legitimate way to upload audio files and share links.
