I can't see it ![]()
PS Are you talking about the lines around the "quick post"? The box always enlarges to accommodate my often "not" quick post. I only ever use it. Please forgive me if I'm talking rubbish. Haven't had coffee yet.

I did not know it was a quick post box, and I cannot have a coffee now before going to sleep

I can't see it when I post from my phone but when I was on the main computer I noticed a little area on the lower corner of the post box that allowed you to click and drag like enlarging a photo .

I can't shrink it, i can enlarge it.
I am still wondering what use it has
The only real advantage I can see is that if you are writing a very long post , you can expand the box so you can see your entire post. This is useful to me , as I normally re-read my posts before submitting often rewritting or cutting out a section and reworking it. . If I want to refer to something I have already written ,I can read it without scrolling up and back down to continue. Other than that, I can't really think of another reason for it.

Merlin , I always enter the compertiions that are on the promotions page and today on doing this I find that in order to enter then I have now to be registered for something called my offers ..
Why is this ?
I have to say that I dont like the process of having to belong to something like that and find it a bit unnerving as I do not feel so in control of the compertitions that I want to enter.
edit ...what is particually disapointing is that in order to enter the compertions now you have to go thrugh a pile of market reserch questios.

I'm sorry you're not finding the experience easy. However, some of the competitions we run are simply in conjunction with myoffers.co.uk and this is how they run things their end. I can assure you that they're totally legitimate!
Thanks again.
