I did a double take - honest!

Is 2 years and 9 months as much as Bob can count to? 
Actually, balls to that. It's vicious pedantry at its worst, and something |I hate about myself.
Ahoy!

Looks like the rounding of the months is a little off.

Nah, it's pedantry on my part: most clubs/societies/whatever I've ever been a member of don't care about the day of the month a member joined, just the month.
Ahoy!

They...they...discard significant digits in their date handling?? 
Next you'll find your local book club or Knitting Mill wearing baggy trousers, smoking in plain view of the neighbourhood, drinking sherry from paper cups!
Hell in a handbasket, I tell you.

All of these things have come to pass!
I tell you, though, the "Funny Handshake *wink* *wink* Brigade" were the worst for this sort of thing. In my week long membership - before I told them that this really wasn't my sort of thing, and I'd rather not. And anyway, didn't they think the whole scene was just a little odd? Can't we have some girls in and a bit less of the listening to boring old farts talk at great (and tedious) length about some fictional deity and other frankly bizarre practices? - I was given about 80 symbols of "meaning", several apparatus I had no use for and various other junk (or law as they'd have it) I was supposed to commit to memory.
Strangely enough, they didn't seem too perturbed when I said toodle-pip.
Ahoy!

All this idiot does is leave comments like "Thanks for share us the great Archive!" (along with a sig full of links). Can you turn on the bit that will show his messages only to him?

Can we throw a CAPTCHA if the message contains hyperlinks? We can have Gold+ exempt from this though.

Honestly it isn't worth irritating thousands of legit users just to prevent one or two such idiots. Plus, there is no guarantee that these spam message posting process is automated. It could be a human as well.

Weird. I can't seem to replicate this with either IE or Firefox.

I can reproduce it consistently Chris. Happens every time. Just use Ctrl+Mouse-Wheel-Slide-Down.

Hi all,
I have noticed that the icons/logos at "CodeProject stuff" don't have the same quality of the logo used at the CP site (icon lighted background, font, "Your dev resource" slogan).
Best regards,
Jaime.

Would it also be possible to get a few images in the "CodeProject Stuff" of a high quality image of the Bob alien? I have had numerous school projects where I included Bob, but it had terrible resolution/image quality when I attempted to remove the orangish background for say a powerpoint presentation.
Regards,
Thomas Stockwell

Hi
I sent an article to CodeProject.Com yesterday. although the article is not completed yet but I expected to see my article in http://www.codeproject.com/KB/vb/[^] but I couldnt find my article there. the article is visible only for me and no one else can read it. does it mean that my article is not accepted by the editors?

If your article has not been completed, you won't see it. Please - don't add unfinished articles to the site. There are people who take the time to read through articles and it makes their jobs harder if they have to wade through unfinished articles.

I do appreciate for your answer
My article is incomplete technically. that's true.Dear friend, I do not like to bother you in CodeProject. I feel it just takes about 5 minutes to be edited with editors not experts. but two suggestions:
1.If you answered me : "we can not accept such an article" this was more helpfull for me because if so I knew what to do next. I wish you had a team that checkes the articles only for being acceptable or not and answers instantly.
2.Editing articles on CodeProject website is time consuming and difficult.why dont you develop a free software for editing articles in CodeProject format?
Using such software user logs on to the website and easily edits his/her articles.

There are Code Project templates available for you to use offline. Read the submission guidelines[^] page to find out where.

That would be a huge undertaking, especially for a primarily volunteer run site. Remember, Code Project has very few full time staff, and relies on volunteers to help out. These volunteers cannot dedicate 100% of their time to doing this because they normally have jobs to help pay the bills.
Gold Members of the site do take a look at unapproved articles and, if the article is almost there, will generally offer advice or critique. In the case where it looks like the article is unpublishable because it's just the template or the code is missing, the article will be reported for deletion.
