 * G'day, thanks. Just passing through on the way to bed. Will send an email in the morning, when I'm (more) awake. Webaware talk 13:40, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

anytime
Anytime webaware. New recipies are unfortunately copyvios probably a good 30-40% of the time, so I always google part of the recipie to see. Googling "In a large bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups flour" brings up that site first :). Hope you're doing well. Mattb112885 (talk to me) 15:01, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Btw
Good to see you around. You can now protect non-existent pages (spambot sort or others) without going to the lengths of putting in the cascade protection system. Changed a while back & you may not know - cheers -- Herby talk thyme 12:21, 27 January 2008 (UTC)


 * G'day, will have to do a bit of reading to catch up a little. Been quite a bit happen in my absence from the wiki world. More neat tools for one thing :-) cheers, Webaware talk 13:01, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
 * On a roll with those VFDs :) It's always satisfying to know we're getting rid of the crap. – Mike.lifeguard  &#124; talk 15:39, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, when my head isn't capable of creative thought, it can still be useful in sorting the wheat from the chaff :-) Webaware talk 23:03, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Policy pointer
Thanks - I was sure it was somewhere but was trying to catch up after some offline time, cheers -- Herby talk thyme 10:21, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I actually went looking for it earlier but couldn't find it. It was worrying me that maybe it had been edited away or something :/ so I was relieved to find it was still in there. Webaware talk 13:16, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
 * "Self erasing policy" - now we could get an interesting debate on that here...:) -- Herby talk thyme 13:27, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
 * One of the reasons it's good to have people like Robert Horning around, to lend some history and perspective (even when I disagree with him!) Webaware talk 13:31, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

One of "those" days...
Destroy all? Nice to see some tidying getting done. Thanks - v wet here AND at work so if you find any really nasty jobs......:) Cheers -- Herby  talk thyme 14:10, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * In my current mood and capacity, destroy is best for me. Nothing creative left :-) I'll keep you in mind if I find something difficult to do ;) Webaware talk 14:12, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Background color
Is there any way to figure out the HTML color name for the background? If you look at my talk page, the color of the userbox to the right is about as close as I could get. I would just use transparent, but the line from the first header would go through the userbox. Νεοπτόλεμος 12:55, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * G'day Νεοπτόλεμος, well now: I can use a colour picker to tell you that the page background for monobook skin is #F8FCFF (unnamed but close to GhostWhite), and that you've picked #F0F8FF (AliceBlue) for your archive box. See Web colors for names. However, bear in mind that Wikibooks can easily be skinned to suit the viewer, so the background colours could well be different from person to person.

 * Thanks! Νεοπτόλεμος 14:02, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * No worries, any time :) Webaware talk 14:03, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
