OT A mistake on a web site (Humour but really not funny this time)
I have just dealt with these people to help with a stray cat I trapped at
the weekend. http://www.penistone-cat.co.uk/ Some pictures of the cat I trapped are here http://i25.tinypic.com/12213pu.jpg http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2hrpwts&s=3 Can anyone else see a rude link on the left hand column on (4th from the bottom) on the rescue centre's web site or is my monitor not set up correctly? RIP Cat. The poor thing even had a blue collar with a bell wrapped inside it's fur and fleas. Adam |

It will show on all computers the same. It is an odd image. You should tell them. It's obviously a cropped link to something with the same name as the site, but the side navbar is too narrow. We had something similar when the list of tasks on our timesheet had an abbreviated form of 'Analysis Activites' on it. It wasn't pleasant. And I certainly wouldn't have wanted to spend hours doing it. |

If you look closely after the s there is a ' suggesting that it was done deliberately to shorten the word penistone by removing the tone....

For example, there's a place in North Wales called Penisarwaun. It's a shame about the pussycat. In the photos it looks kind of OK apart from the coat |

The web "designer" is trying to be clever and get around font restrictions on web pages but cocking it up in the process. -- Cheers Dave. |
