Is there some prejudice against running a damned spell checker when setting up a web site?

A hobbyists' site where the "hobbyist" is spelled wrong, fer chrissakes. Gives ya confidence.

That should say "hobbyist's", Charlie. And I saw that they had "hobbiest" on the forum site. See? They, too, should have hired me as their website designer! ;)

Actually, if we are talking about "Talk with fellow hobbyists' ", it should not be possessive--it is just plural.

But that is insignificant compared to the fact that the designer has dictated what size of font I have to use. It is so small I can't read it.

When I hit + Spin the wheel to increase the size, nothing happens! Or is that the fault of the bulletin board designer--PHP-Nuke/Francisco Burzi.

In that case, it should read: "Talk with fellow hobbyists." (No apostrophy after the s.)
