Technical Difficulties

Anyone else having issues with their Friends page?
Ever since last night, the margins suddenly are running beyond the edge of my screen on the right side, requiring me to scroll right-left-right in order to read entries.
I didn't read most of my Friends entries last night because of the problem.

Has anybody on your friends page posted a really large image or the like lately? That's what usually causes that kind of problem for me... and if that's the case, I'd kindly ask them to put it behind an LJ-cut. :-/

ETA: I checked your flist, and the problem lies with the puppies - even though they're really cute li'l fellows. :-) If the poster cuts it or resizes it, that should take care of the problem - otherwise I guess you could always set up a temporary filter to remove that post from your friends list until it's been pushed to the next page.

It's my sister's fault!
Of course!
I should have guessed! ;-)


Thanks!

The puppies are really cute, though! ;-)

No problem! Glad I could help!

I *love* your icon!

I keep realizing I need new icons: some Trek, some Wizard of Oz, more Star Wars. . . with appropriately witty titling, of course!

Thankee! It's one of my own favourites, so I jump at every chance to use it. ;-)

And I need a life love making icons, so if you have any ideas, I'd be happy to help out! 'Fraid I don't know you well enough yet to know what you like, or I'd surprise you... :-)

I don't have any specific ideas for an icon at the moment. If you want to surprise me, based on your reading of my Friends page or a scan through my entries, that would be great. Or if you want to wait until you know me better.

If I come up with an idea, I'll certainly let you know!

Thanks for the offer!

I'll have a look around and see if I get hit with any ideas. :-) Let me guess - no puppies? ;-)

when this happens, you can also go to your journal settings and tell it to use placeholders for large images.

That's right - I forgot about that one. *plugs in brain, makes mental note*
