    You know what's strange? I had this exact problem happen to me before. It happened whenever I opened Winamp, and I fixed it by opening Doom 95. I have absolutely no clue why any of it happened the way it did, but every time it happened it was because I opened Winamp, and every time it went away was when I opened Doom 95. Strange, eh?

    Hikaru zero,
    i gotta say you are one gorgeous looking dude, i wish i had a granddaughter your age to introduce you to, you remind me so much of the way dudes looked back in the 60's and 70's, you seem like a gentle soul too.

    flmkpr what is the color quality set for. It sounds like you are describing a very low setting like 2/16. Have you tried reinstalling your video drivers? Or using system restore. Have you installed any new stuff just before it started happening?

    hippiewise. You need to have your pics hosted to have them appear in the threads. You can't just upload them like with the galleries. Try a free hosting program like ImageShack. Once the pic is uploaded you will be given a link. Just click on the little pic just above with the mountains on it and paste in the link.

    flamekeeper I have a couple of older boxes running 98 with the Intel chipsets. I had a similar problem on one after downloading Intels application accelerator. Are you running that? If so try uninstalling it.

    If you think that picture was ugly, you should see me BEFORE I have my first cup of joe.

    Hmmmm... I don't know why that isn't working as planned. When I paste the link to the large image of you and your shweetie in my address bar it takes me to the picture. When I try to post it as a picture in the thread/message window it doesn't work. Unless they have a size restriction in place here on the site. You should only need to paste

    "http://img466.imageshack.us/my.php?image=veramike7bx.jpg"

    without the quotation marks to get it to work. Unless this site has an issue with photobucket URLs, or photo bucket has a problem with how hip forums abbreviates the URL. Try these guys, and see if it works any better. By the way, I haven't figured out how to delete a post either. <g>
