So, Temple and Dags, you see this as SELF-promotion?  Check closely at who started this thread. It was I who decided I'd like to help.  Blow off steam at me if you will, but don't blame anyone else.

You're fine, Janet. I really like purple text on an orange background. The font sizes nicely, though.

~Tom

I'd like to enter either "You Only Live Twice" or "The Long Trek Home", but I doubt if I can whip them into shape for the competition before the deadline.

I am not sure when this started, but I think that a while back I could resize text on an in-line review.  Now, I can't.

Before I click the 'leave inline review' button the resizing works, afterwards - no.

~Tom

Well, I don't copy them all.  Just the ones I think will be useful.  But, you're right, it is a bit of work that hitting a "Print Comment" button would solve.

As this thread is 'wishlist', another wish from me:

I absolutely love being able to increase the font size and contrast of a story. My old and tired eyes thank you for it, but (there's always a but, isn't there), When I go down to view or add a review, the font is so very tiny.  I can (and do) increase the entire page using Crtl-plus (or Ctrl and mouse wheel), and this works well, but it also increases the ENTIRE page and doesn't change the contrast.  I found a script that removes all color information from a web page and that helps, because test in a blue only slightly darker than background is really a strain for me.

Sol:

20 years as an enlisted Navy man starting from 1961 and retiring in 1980. Had 5 tours in Vietnam. What can I help with?

I've had the thought several times that perhaps the blanket email notifications should be cut off.  What could replace them would be a checkbox on each of your connections that was labeled: "Allow email notifications from this connection".  If you read a posting from someone who isn't on your connections and didn't particularly like the posting, but wanted to see more, then connect but don't check the box.  However, if you did like it, then make the connection and add the tick in the box.

I've just read it also, Tonya.  Fantastic piece of work.

Welcome to TNBW, Tonya.

Loads of very good authors on this site. Just jump in and read a few chapters that interest you.  I started on short stories by reading what others said in their reviews as guidance. Once you get a few reviews done, it'll come much easier.

Sol:

How much longer will the free group be present?  I also have a novel that is nearing completion (6 more chapters), and I have absolutely no chance to amass enough points to start posting it in a point group.  i suppose I could tack on a parenthetic suffix to the title, but with only 6 more chapters to go, that's kind of pointless (no pun intended) in a 44-chapter novel.

~Tom

A very good evening to you, JD. Just jump right in and have a ball.

I'll take a look at your first chapter.
