 * i have a designer who will be doing some work and i am trying to get him to understand
   that if he does it 1024×768 it also needs to be fluid at 800×600 so that there
   is no scrolling showing.
 * is there a reference site or link i can point him to to understand this better?
 * thanks!

 * here’s some advise from a previous posting of mine. don’t forget, the search 
   box is very helpful for questions like this:
 * well, a search found what I am looking for an indeed, teaches us all the important
   lesson – search before you post!
 * Anyway, the answer to my question is really easy, as Nuclear Moose explained 
   last year:
 * go into wp-admin/edit-comments.php and at around line 68 or so, you’ll find this:
   
   $comments = $wpdb->get_results(“SELECT * FROM $tablecomments ORDER BY comment_date
   DESC LIMIT 20”); Change the ’20’ to whatever number you like.
 * Well, I changed mine to 200 and it works great.

   and once it is removed everything is fine.

 * As nuclear moose suggest, get yourself a hosting account with CPanel and make
   sure they provide Fantastico as part of the hosting package.
 * Through Fantastico you can install WordPress very easily without any hassles.
 * To find a host, visit: [http://www.webhostingtalk.com](http://www.webhostingtalk.com)

 * Cool.
    thanks for that. Yes, I’m using Windows XP Service Pack 2. I might drop
   Alex an email to see what he thinks may be the issue. One other question… When
   it comes to recording your audio, what do you use? For recording and editing 
   of audio, I have used Audacity – [http://audacity.sourceforge.net/](http://audacity.sourceforge.net/)
   It is similar to Cool Edit Pro and is free. cheers Leslie

 * cheers! Yes, using the 3dots template is ideally suited to sites that want to
   offer content across a number of sections.
    of course, everything seems to work
   better in Firefox these days rather than IE. One annoyance on IE is that is you
   visit any 3dots site, highlight some text eg: you want to cut and paste some 
   text, it will then not only highlight that text but also other text above it 
   as well. On Firefox this doesn’t happen and really trying to find out why IE 
   does this. If anyone knows a solution to this minor problem, then feel free to
   pitch in! cheers Leslie

 * Hi there
    Very nice! Good use of the 3dots template and the way you have cutomised
   it. How did you manage to remove the graphic that usually stays on the top left
   hand side? Also, just wondering if you highlight some text, rather than highlighting
   just the text you want, it seems to highlight everything around it. This happens
   in IE but not Firefox and wonder if you noticed this as well. cheers Leslie

 * thanks. i am a big fan of the 3dots design and am looking at enhancing it. just
   a shame it is not easy to put in a footer 🙂
    also any other feedback much appreciated.
   cheers Leslie
