Save Your Work

I didn't think but I should have written this here before now. It might save some of you some grief. Many of you are probably ahead of me on computer skills, but I have an idea that might help. Sir Michael is working hard to control/take care of the spammers problem that they are giving us on this forum. After I lost what I had written a couple of times, it dawned on me that I should be saving what I was writing before I pushed the submit button. After you write your post and before you put any Smiles on it, and before you hit the submit buttom, high light what you wrote, right click on it with the mouse, then click copy, and if it disappears with the message resources exceeded, then you just come back, get the box up again to write your post, right click, paste, and it all comes back. If you don't do it that way, it will all be gone, and you won't get it back. After you click copy then you can put your Smiles on. I had my work disappear once when I clicked on a Smiles. Another way you could do it is type your post in wordpad or works, or one of those, then copy and paste it to where you are posting, and that will work as well. These are just some ideas that I thought might be useful. It is pretty easy to high light and copy, and as soon as you think you don't need to, you will lose your work, as that is what happened to me. So it would be a good idea to high light and copy whether you need to or not. :D :D
