Have you guys ever thought about having links to other websites that pop into new browser windows on the homepage? I personally like that format better though I don't know what others think about it. I know I can right click and open in a new window, but I forget sometimes and its annoying.... Though it might be annoy for you guys to change your coding. Just a thought.

You mean like links in the News? That would be horribly annoying. The last thing I want is new windows opening when I click on a link. Of course, if you have firefox, then you can right-click and open in a new tab without opening a new window, which is a godsend. There is also the problem that some pop-up blockers will not allow new windows to open like that. My parents used to have one that would never allow a new window to open, unless you disabled it each time you wanted to do it.

If you have firefox (which I highly recommend), you can use the middle click to open a link in a new tab. Ever since I started using that I've been hooked. I can just read through a page while quickly opening interesting links in other tabs and when I'm finished with the current page I close the tab, which brings me to the "next tab in line" where I can repeat the process. It's the best way to surf yet

This is a bad sequel in almost every way. Barely a thing has improved over last season, and many of its flaws have been carried over to here.― Demon Lord Retry! R is a bad sequel in almost every way. Barely a thing has improved over last season, and a lot of its flaws have been carried over here. The action is as flat as ever. The animation barely moves an inch.

Somewhere between xxxHoLiC and Hell Girl lies Hell is Dark with No Flowers.― Somewhere between xxxHoLiC and Hell Girl lies Hell is Dark with No Flowers. If you think I've made that comparison before, you're right – Matsuri's Phantom Tales of the Night can also be described that way. But Hell is Dark with No Flowers, based on the novel of the same name by Yoru Michio, is the better use of the descrip...
