Despite ticking the box to keep me logged in, most of the time I have to log in each time I visit.

I find that with the toilet at work, but not with the forum.
Terry, is it the host or your good self who would create a favicon for the forum bookmark? That's still missing and before the migration it was a bright green square that really stood out, even after a whole morning of staring at the webcam for ages, which I do since work agreed to let me deliver most of my performances via Skype.
It's a minor thing but favicons do make bookmarks easier to use when constantly changing focus between the big screen in the corner and the laptop in front of my face, maybe it's an age thing?

Uh-oh! Watch it all go horribly awry after that fate-tempting statement by the French resident internet wrecking gold medallist.

I'll have another look at that then.
"Annoyingly" it is working for me both at home and at work.

I could set a favicon. how about a biscuit

Terry, it's a minor issue so don't rush, you've done a great job with the move

Same here, so by that logic I should be really vexed, cos it's all running as smoothly as a 25 year old Toyota engine with a sump full of Valvoline's finest synthetic 10w40, and the only time my login details get forgotten is when I'm holding up loads of other staffers' jalopies and several hundred students' Corsas on one of the rare occasions when I need to show my face at work and have typed in the 1,307th incorrect code at the barrier to the car park.

Nice idea, or how about your Minor? OK, so at that size only you would know for certain what it was actually a picture of, but think of it as the forum equivalent of the artist signing his painting.


@ GHT: I want that toilet for my garden, where are they sold please?

Rich, a favicon is the little icon next to your bookmark (or favourite depending on your choice of browser) which comes from the website. It is also displayed next to the site name in your browser tabs.
I'll think of something close to relevant and set it shortly.

Rich, I love that tea & biscuits site! I also love the idea of the spreadable biscuit ( or as a body paint alternative.. ), but the name of that biscuit spread perhaps needs some work:



What were they thinking of? Anyway, thanks for the link, I've picked up lots of essential, biscuit and tea-related info there, for example; who knew that the regulation quantity for the Bourbon hole is ten? I'll never buy the cheap Associated Dairies ones again as they only have eight holes, some of which aren't even chamfered uniformly around their edges.



Edited at some time between lunch and tea: Liking the favicon, Terry. Is it an Oriole cookie, an O/E Oreo brand one mind, not one of the distinctly average Marks & Spencer replicas, or maybe the similar but earlier Hydrox? Or is it some form of hole with a silver worm about to emerge from it?


Edited again, half way between breakfast and elevenses: Terry, I just noticed that the icon doesn't appear in bookmarks lists, only on the tab.
Also, sign in is still working, but only for a couple of hours and it looks as though the cookies are expiring all by themselves after that time.
