[Ray]

[Joker]

Joker - who should have learned how to spell :tard:

Kiteboy, who thinks faster than he can type.

Anybody ever notice that when I quote people's posts, sometimes I correct the spelling? :D

JCG, whose resident called him 'particular' yesterday

Any news?
<-- Still can't spell :p

[Ray]

I added a spell checker but for some reason it does not work right, take a look click spell check when replying it will give you your mistakes but when you click I'm finished it loads forever so you have to click check again then manually copy it in to your post.

I am still working on fixing this issue hopefully I can if not guess we can still keep it. :D

[Joker]

Thank you very much Ray!! I am trying it now :)
Edit - it did take some time, like you said. But it also did it's job. Once it pointed out the words that were spelled wrong, I just closed the window, and fixed them myself. Not sure why it is doing that, but either way it does help :D

Seems OK to me -- did you so something more?
As it is, all I have to do is click "finish checking" and then close the window. You mean it's supposed to be easier than that?

BTW my spelling-macho will probably keep me from using it. So now I'm going to be the only one here with speeling mistaks.

While we're at it......spell-check doesn't catch everything.

I see that on the Forums Home page, some things were corrected (a while ago, not by this spell-check). But there's one more little thing you might want to fix up. The heading for Photoshop says:

Post you photoshoped tsx pics here.

Who can find the spelling error there? :ikno:

(Maybe 2 errors, dunno.)

Cool. Now my 6th grade spelling skills will "improve" to a 9th grade level in every post that I write. :nervous:

Speaking of spell checks, even that has limits. Check out some atrocious spelling and grammar errors below. :Popcorn:

I bet people are gonna have to think a while about these:

And these, I'm not sure I get myself:
Carlos was absent yesterday because he was playing football.
He was hurt in the growing part.

Please excuse Tommy for being absent yesterday. He had diarrhea
and his boots leak.
And this one almost makes sense:
Please excuse Jennifer for missing school yesterday. We forgot
to get the Sunday paper off the porch, and when we found it
Monday, we thought it was Sunday.

Nice stuff, Whatcham!
