I’ve confirmed that specific elderberry syrup is available at a certain confectionery shop out in the Old West. It’s tucked away somewhere near the start of the street. I can't recall the exact name of the place, but I don't think you'll be able to fake it.

The last time I was there was about a month or so ago—maybe six weeks—and it had that unmistakable elderberry flavor. It comes in packaging similar to Nestlé, though perhaps a bit larger. And, if memory serves me right, it isn't a powder, but a liquid. 🙂

In theory—and I mean strictly in theory since it's so outdated—it could redirect you to some sketchy tenth-tier site that tries to trigger a download. But for that to actually cause an issue, you'd have to manually install whatever plugin they're pushing. Most modern browsers aren't quite that gullible anymore. So, you can hang out on this forum without much worry.

A day or two ago, when I clicked on my profile icon to dig up my old posts, a random page just popped open in a new window. I didn't even stay to see what it was; I just reflexively slammed the window shut.

All things considered, it would be nice to get an official word on what's actually going on here. 🙂

I have a quick question regarding mailing things over to the USA. Basically, I need to send a letter to someone in the States, but I also need them to be able to mail that same letter back to my address here in America. My goal is to cover the postage for both ways upfront so the recipient doesn't have to shell out a single cent. (And no, I'm not looking for any other way to handle this besides this specific setup).

I've seen some mentions of Self-Addressed Stamped Envelopes and International reply coupons floating around, but honestly, I haven't the slightest clue what those actually entail. Has anyone here dealt with this before?

Geez, what is this, Starbucks all over again? At this rate, they might as well just strip away the letters entirely.
By the way, regarding the forums—that logo, while it looks fine on its own, just feels completely out of place with the rest of the site. You've got this modern logo clashing against a vBulletin theme that feels like it crawled straight out of the 90s.

p.s. I actually think the logo looks much better like this:

Jacob Foster11 said:It isn't even about the content itself. It’s just... it doesn't really matter to almost anyone on this board.

Ah, right. I actually thought there was something significant there. Thanks for clarifying. 🙂

Jacob Foster11 said:It’s the kind of thing that shouldn't be out in the open, and I suspect they'll scrub it pretty quickly.

I'm curious, though... why wouldn't this be public knowledge? From where I'm sitting, it doesn't seem to reveal anything particularly sensitive. 🤷

I picked up a copy of P. Parker at the local newsstand over by the town square—honestly, I can't even remember how much cash I dropped on it. Now, as for whether it’s actually any good? 🤷

jadetrucker43 said:Only you could pull something like this off.

Honestly, I feel like my facepalm was lifted from some other site and turned into an actual image 😛. Back when I first joined, it was still just that ridiculous picture.
Now that I'm back, I'm still left wondering... what even was that about?

Seriously, what kind of joke is this? It’s a forum, not April Fools' Day. Stop trying to pull these stunts!

I actually just went ahead and had some printed myself (at a local print shop, over near Michigan Ave). $17 I picked up a 20x28 inch one, though obviously, the quality really depends on whether you go black and white or color, and what kind of cardstock you use. Anyway, my take is that if you’re looking to grab a few different ones, doing it yourself is probably worth the effort. Besides, finding high-res shots from those classic movies shouldn't be much of a struggle these days.

^^If you set up a PayPal account using foreign currency, you can just donate 🙂

I actually have a PDF on the economy topic that walks through the whole process of setting up a PayPal account 🙂

Matthew Anderson4 said:but maybe the first shot is actually worse

I disagree; I think the first photo is actually pretty sexy 😳

Laura Evans3 said:Would you rather see him in a skirt?

Well, you didn't ask my opinion specifically, but honestly? I'm totally down for that. 😍

Anyway, back to the actual topic at hand: if we aren't talking about high-waisted pants, then what's the issue?
Come on, just post a photo so we can actually see how it looks (you don't have to show your face, just the shirt and the pants)

Richard Lee47 said:update drivers for graphics because they bring stability, but as for sound and everything else... I've never really seen a reason to bother updating those.

I did a clean install of Windows, I wasn't talking about an update 🙂. If the graphics start acting up, then I'll look into installing something. Thanks for the input.

Joshua Garcia3 said:but if everything is running fine, just leave it alone.

Thanks for the reply 🙂. This is actually a huge relief since hunting down drivers online is such a headache :S

Just a total noob question here: does Windows automatically install all the drivers?
Basically, I just finished setting up Windows 7 and haven't manually installed a single thing yet, but everything seems to be working perfectly fine; audio, graphics, the whole nine yards 😕

kiLJan said:I was actually wondering what all those keys above Home and Insert are even for...

Well, now you know 😁. Anyway, no problem at all—glad I could help out🙂

kiLJan said:I know how to grab an image from the web and upload it from my computer

So, you mean "screenshotting" the screen? If that’s the case, just hit the prt scr key. It’s located right above those delete, home, end keys. After that, open up MS Paint (Start > All Programs > Accessories > Paint) and hit ctrl+v (or Edit > Paste), and voilà—there’s your image. Then, go to file > save as. A window will pop up; just type the filename at the top, select JPEG (*.JPG, *.JIFF.....) at the bottom, and save it somewhere on your hard drive. From there, you can just upload it from your computer to the web. Though, looking at your comment, I assume you already have that part figured out 🙂. Just ask if any part of that remains unclear 🙂

Wait, are you trying to upload an image, or are you just looking to quote multiple people in one post?

Improper said:Of course, I’m not just talking about romantic attraction

Oh boy, I was just about to mention how sexy the Russian language sounds, but fine—if we aren't going there, then we aren't going there.😬

OT: winter 😍 I honestly miss that freezing cold weather in Russia.😍

^How on earth did you draw this? I mean, how did everything turn out so incredibly precise?
