What Krusewalker said

I am surprised that people are having probs with the font, Its aways been fine in firefox for me, a ton better than IE, was one of the reasons I changed. Are you sure its not the dodgy contact lenses you have been buying

While talking browsers, there were non-better that netscape navigator, shame is no longer made.

It really annoys me when these IT people think they are being so clever using weird fonts, and even worse IMO is when they set up a page with dark red fonts on a black background

There are some web sites where the layout, colours, and fonts are cr*p - what are these people doing

Even the Newfoundland Club web site (Which in all other respects is quite good) has the main tabs in black font on dark green background so until you've clicked and scrolled down to the page you want you can't read it Grrrrrrrrrrrr.

No, I was green too til yesterday lol, I just made Firefox my default browser, but I can go back to IE if I wanted. May well try Opera too as it seems popular.
It's not that much different to use at all tbh, just obviously more secure.

Heck, I use Photobucket all the time, that is very scarey Thank goodness they didn't get your money Inca, what a relief for you.

Is there another site anyone can recommend to use to upload and store pics?

This is another of those rare occasions when I'm glad I use neither a PC nor IE!
