A trick for those who copy/paste regularly on this forum...

I know there are a lot of people who like to type posts out in a document before they copy/paste the contents in the forums (myself included).  This is so they can save something and not have to deal with forum glitches eating up posts.  Well, there is one little issue with copy/paste on these forums.

These forums add double the spaces from the original copy/paste.

I found a way around that, and this might help others, too.

Copy/paste in the Quick Reply box and -then- press the Reply button.  Then the contents will load up on the more elabourate palette, where you can do nifty things to your smexy text.  And edit the post accordingly.

I am very happy about this secret.  I hope others can find happiness in it, too!

Sincerely,
Arya
