Talking

Maybe you need a wider monitor Lary so you can keep your cursor off to the right a little moreż?

21" is wide enough...I still have to get within 3 inches to see it

But thanks for the suggestion

Thats why I have a 42" monitor....but going blind is a bugger....I have those little floaters in my eyes that reflect light incorrectly. Hence, causing blurred vision, so I have to sit away from the monitor. They said its from having metal shavings in my eye and having an MRI done.

Back on point...Love the preview, can live without...Keep rocking the site guys!

It is a minor annoyance for you and a MAJOR PIA for me......so guess which way we are going to go with it?
what else would you do with your extra time? go fishing?

This is the only forum I really follow regularly so the lack of mouse-over has never really been an issue for me. If the title catches my interest, open it up and start reading. If it doesn't hold my interest, click the back button. Unless you are on dial-up... but then mouse over would be slow too.

The sites that do use mouse over likely do not have the high level of moderation that this site does. Things that 'get in the way' as Larry is saying it does, would be less of an issue. I have said it before and I will say it again, I greatly appreciate not having to read through ads, foul language, etc that they keep off the site. If they didn't do that, I personally wouldn't be coming back on a regular basis.
