    I don't see it, but remember when I was first putting this place together that many people on the VB community boards were complaining about a dot. I'll look into it later but it would help if I knew what browsers you were using.

    I see a pattern already. My IE7 looks fine. Should be a quick fix when I'm back in the UK, but for now you're stuck with the spot ;)

    I use IE7 & Firefox and it only shows up on Firefox. Maybe it will go away if I think it in Russian?




    No-one got that joke the first time so I thought I'd try it again.

    Firefox is a Clint eastwood film where he goes to steal a secret Russian Fighter. It's thought controlled and he was chosen for the mission because he could speak Russian.

    It's a vey good film.

    The annoying dot has, (hopefully), gone. I installed some code a while back to seperate the individual forums so it looks better to the eye. When we changed the forum structure earlier in the year it upset this code. Until lm_wfc mentioned the problem I didn't realise this had happened, (only shows up in firefox). Now fixed.
