variation in BBS format
« on: July 28, 2000, 05:42:00 PM »
Hello,

I have noticed that some threads in the BBs have a different format. Most can be viewed in its entirety without having to use the arrow keys to slide the window accross and read the lines. Other threads seem to not have a word wrap active and the line goes on for a LONG ways.

Is there some kinda setting I could check on to see all threads in the same format? I looked under preferences and couldn't se anything there.

The pictures are what do it maverick, if someone has posted a picture that is larger than the normal format it makes all the messages larger too and makes you have to scroll to see them all.

If there is something else that does this, like staga, I wouldn't know what it is because the only time I have experience this is when pictures are posted.
