I keep getting "Your message is too short" when I post a message of 2 or 3 words, but I see some messages that are just "emoticons" and no words. Why do I have to add words to make my message longer when all I want to say is "Beautiful quilt"? LOL

When I click on Post Quick Reply, very often the Windows Internet Explorer puts up a window and asks if I want to leave the page before it will post. Or I'll back click to leave a page and it will say the same thing. DUH, if I back clicked to leave the page, I'm pretty sure I do want to leave. I think it's a Windows Internet Explorer issue rather than a QB issue. I don't see me getting to upgrade to Foxfire so I'll just have to work with it. Thanks Patrice for all you do to keep us running as smoothly as possible.
