The Studio Break Room
Every working studio has some alloted time for taking a break from the work at hand. So, this is our "break room" - an open thread with no particular subject - just whatever is on your mind at the moment. Post about anything and everything (allowed by the Eon's TOU's, of course). You can wax poetic or brag on your GK's. Ask a philosophical question or discuss your favorite vacation spot. Share your interests and hobbies or comment on someone else's. Share a special video, picture or whatever. Be silly or serious - or a bit of both. Visit with your friends and make new ones
This is your "break time", so Have Fun!

Can't download Youtube video clip to my profile
Hello,
Each time I copy the URL or the embedded address and attempt to copy to my video section i keep getting an error message that there was a problem downloading the video. I joined Youtube yesterday. I'm not sure if Im missing something. i thought all i had to do was copy and paste and i would get to view the clip on my page. Can any one assist me, or do you think it's just a glitch on the day. I copied a clip off youtube yesterday and placed a URL in a post and it worked?....
Thank you
Cheers
Nikki

Quetion About Skins
I am not planning on learning how to make skins. This is just an 'out of curiosity' question.
Why do the skin backgrounds have to be tiled? Is there no way to make a background picture as large as the page? I have a skinny photo that I use as my computer wallpaper, and it takes up the entire screen, yet it is not possible, apparently, to make it a full background skin, or even to make it fit the banner of my page. Why is that?
And I see a lot of skins in the gallery that have a pretty picture, but then you try it, and it is all tiled, and looks like cheap wallpaper you can buy for your house. LOL

new skin
I have been trying to change my skin, for Christmas. Whenever I choose one I do not get the option to use it or cancel it. I was told in "Getting around Eons" to ask in this group, maybe someone could help me. There is also someone else having the same problem. She was also asking. I have cleaned my cookies in my computer, which was one of the suggestion. I would appreciate some help. if anyone knows something I can do.
Thank You

Hyperlinks missing up-arrow-box.
Hi,
I use a lot of hyperlinks in my postings. I've discovered that when ever a hyperlink is near the right margin and extends into the next line, the box is missing.
This is hard to explain but I'll give it a try. This can happen two ways:
1) When I write my article in Word 2007 and the description wording for the hyperlink inside the html/css code is near enough to the right margin and go into the next line, the arrow-up box will not display in the preview or the posted message, even if I run it through NotePad first, after I've copy/pasted it into a new message box and preview it, the arrow-up box will always be missing.
2) Even if the hyperlink in the Word document itself is located well between the margins, after it is copy/pasted into the message box, previewed and the hyperlink's description wording, due to the different margins in the message box, goes into the next line the arrow-up box will be missing.
I hope you can make some sense out the way I've described the problem. Do you think this problem can be fixed? If so, when?
