Chris,
Check out my comments at the bottom of this article; Introducing Visual Studio LightSwitch[^]
Basically, if the video is playing, and your browser client space is less than ~1260px then the right hand Tower ad is over the top of the video, and doesn't go behind like the rest of the text. don't know if you can tweak the zOrder.
Cheers,

Could I suggest that maybe 1280 is a little too big? 
Not only from a screensize perspective, but also from the point that a smaller screensize will dramatically help member bandwidth issues in downloading the video

It only just hit me that you weren't the author of that video 
Sorry - I'm wading through an avalanche of email and my brain is short circuiting this morning.
Let me...adjust.

I updated my article and removed a few files that are no longer necessary. While the new version hasn't been released, the old article still points to these files and now no longer works.
Perhaps, it would be best to copy all files over to the working, delete the files in the working, and, once the article is approved, move everything over to the 'production'.

I just recently used the new editor (which totally rocks) to upload a new version of my article.
After doing such, I found I was able to go and approve my own article. I would assume this isn't a desired behavior. I mean, who wouldn't approve something they just submitted.

Currently we have no problem with you doing this but we are going to change this so you can't approve your own articles.

<b> Description: </b>An application error occurred on the
server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent
the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for
security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on
the local server machine.
<br><br>
<b>Details:</b> To enable the details of this specific error
message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a
<customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file
located in the root directory of the current web application. This
<customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to
"Off".<br><br>

</td>
</tr>
</tbody></table>
<br>
<b>Notes:</b> The current error page you are seeing can be
replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect"
attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to
point to a custom error page URL.<br><br>

We *just* did a site update. You probably hit just as it was halfway between here and there.

it's gone outside, as spring is in the air.
You can still find it under "Features".

I see "Daily Insider" (email subscribe page), not "The Insider" (forum).
Suggestion for Chris: have the Daily Insider page link to The Insider forum.

I'm talking about the forum.
|
|
|
|
|
Ah. Well, I guess it will be back when you least expect it.
|
|
|
|
|
It's gone for me at the moment.
Maybe you saw it going back and forth because they removed it (for whatever reason) and you are seeing a cached version on occassion.

And now I can see it again.

Message ID
When I post several messages in a thread, it is impossible to tell which of those messages got an upvote in my reputation list (just shows the message title). If a message ID were also shown in the reputation list, I wouldn't have to click all of them to know they are the same message.
Short Message ID
Even better would be if this message ID started from 0 for each thread (that way, I'm not comparing 12340845 to 12340945... I'm comparing 5 to 25). If you already have an ID for each message in your database (and if those ID's are generated in an identity column), this could easily be accomplished by subtracting the thread starting message ID from the message ID. Not perfect, but workable most of the time.
Message Time
Alternatively, you could show the time the message itself was posted (in addition to the time of the reputation event). Example: "13:30:23" (1:30PM and 23 seconds). That gives me an equally good point of reference (perhaps even better than the short message ID).
Mouse Hover Not Workable
Currently, I could just mouse over the message URL to see an ID, but then I can't compare two easily (that's a lot of numbers to remember).

This is a big reworking of the rep system because of the way we store and retrieve this data.
I'm going to have to say "not this month" on this one.

It seems that articles that have been deleted are getting stuck in the "Articles needing approval" window. One good case-in-point, the Utilites for Java article that was deleleted about 4 days ago has been showing up ever since.
