White Cross

Why has the topic in General & Rants - Goddess's Vac (again!) got a white cross by it? It's in the 'open' not 'locked' position. What does it mean?[/face]

It's because DJK thinks my Vac topic is extra special!

[face=Comic Sans MS]Of course! Why didn't I think of that?

Just been to check ... and my vac still has a white cross not red .... and my flying pants have just been upgraded to a white cross too!

Edit: Don't know whether to be pleased that my pants and my vac are hot topics or not?!

Hope you're not asking me to do that!

(and I know someone has told me twice now - but I forgot again!)

I have sent Keefy a PM

but as I know he never reads then, I will also post it here

Keefy this is a screenshot of the topics, as you can see from my own PC it is OK, but I have seen the white crosses that they are referring to from time to time. I believe it is just when the graphics are very slow to load, it often happens on this (green) site.

Edit, for example whilst proof reading this post, my own avatar is only showing as a red cross, hence the slow graphics problem

Edit, Edit, whilst reading the edit, my avatar reappeared again

OH OH OH - So they meen its a white background with a red X, well if they had said that in the 1st place maybe i could have helped them

The closes thing i got to a white cross is when i went on my balcony and saw a coptic church in the distance

[face=Comic Sans MS]No, No, No. It's the normal subject cross - Green or flashing when there is a new post etc. - As in Horus's photo where they are yellow and one red one - It was white - or perhaps more accurately pale green. Nothing to do with the usual 'non-show graphics'.

I can't remember how to do a screen shot either.

Edit - OK, I've refreshed my mind how to do a screen shot (Thanks Andy), done it, saved it, but now can't get it to resize to put into album/here. Keefy I'll email it to you.

And I'm backing Hepzi up - us Numpties must stick together you know (although I feel Hepzi may have progressed past the Numpty Stage with her new found talent for screen shots!)

It's a White Cross! Sort of ghostly white and it's fully loaded - not a red blob half loaded thingummybob at all. I've just had a peep at General and it's still lurking on mine too.

I was starting to think think you women are winding me up after Hepzi sent me the snapshot

The attachment was a .wps file which i could not open, finally found i could open it in Microsoft word 2007, then came the photo hmmmm, what was wrong with it, i could not see anything wrong, where was the white cross ?

after a few cups of tea and more study i now realize that they are on about the lightish green cross, which is:

A HOT TOPIC that as been read

Ok so we dont have that on Luxor4u, so what i will do is change the graphic to the normal darker one - No new posts

Blinkin heck! All that to be told I've already read it!!!

And Shame on you both for not reading it then if your's is flashing red and orange! Maybe if you had read it you'd have known!

[face=Comic Sans MS]Would we do a thing like that? As if!

(Goddess if he's that gullable maybe we should talk.

[face=Comic Sans MS]Sorry about that. I've only had 'Works' for a long time and not got used to using 'Word' again. Didn't think to put it in 'photo's'.

[face=Comic Sans MS]I did use the words 'pale green' a few times - honest.[/face]

[face=Comic Sans MS]Typical man!

Train you for years on one system (blue side) and then change the arrangements without any notice. What's a gal supposed to do?

OK, mystery solved. Thank you Keefy.

Oi!, I have just realised that I am one of the two being accused of not reading your topic

I had to not read it so that I could snap it

Numpty Pants

The adventures of your knickers is always a hot topic on my PC

Actually you'd be surprised how many folk are interested in my pants!! I managed to enthrall someone else with tales of them today!
