    Yeup got the message .... what a sad git I am for wasting a couple of minutes of my life trying this out when there are much more important things to be done ... such as counting the number of blades of grass in my garden or ensuring that the traffic lights at the bottom of my street are still working correctly ... or I did paint a bedroom last night, I will maybe go and keep an eye on it to ensure that the paint is dryiing correctly.

    I guess I now know who is stealing all the bandwidth and making the site perform like a three legged asthmatic donkey at times. :o

    You have included too many images in your signature or in your previous post. Please go back and correct the problem and then continue again.

    Images include use of smilies, the vB code tag and HTML <img> tags. The use of these is all subject to them being enabled by the administrator.

    I run into trouble with the limit on the smilie/code as I tend to use bold and italic tags with a few smilies and often have the messge that I've used too many. This means I go in and change some to *smile* or just delete them, then resubmit - that is when I run into the 'you've posted too fast since your last post' message.

    A little annoying I have to admit but I wish the smilie/tags limit was upped slightly instead! :D
    Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out :smiley:
