• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

For Windows Vista and XP users a cool utility called FreeSnap will provide much of the same functionality with a exhaustive list of keyboard shortcuts.

Once you have FreeSnap installed and running you will have the following keyboard shortcuts available to you:
  • Win key + Up Arrow – Snap top
  • Win key + Down arrow – Snap bottom
  • Win key + Left arrow – Snap left
  • Win key + Right arrow – Snap right
  • Win key + Home - Move to top-left corner
  • Win key + Page Up – Move to top-right corner
  • Win key + End – Move to bottom –left corner
  • Win key + Page Down – Move to bottom-right corner

  • Win key + Shift + Right arrow – Grow right
  • Win key + Ctrl + Up arrow – Shrink top

I am a real 'freak' for shortcuts. Sitting in front of the computer all day every day, having short cuts really cuts down on alot of time. This should be pretty interesting.
