guitarman53 I'm wondering how it is done that long news articles can be copied on this board, like news from another source? is it highlighted or something? the Youtube video's I found out about, but how can newspaper articles be copied on this board, I've seen some that takes up a long time to read, & I know the person isn't typing out all this.

SweetVirginia Usually you can just highlight the text and copy it, then paste into your post on this board. If it's a site that has a "printable version" choice, that's easier because you won't copy extra text (like photo captions).

"We ride in Chiba Chariots.
We send thongs around the world.
We often ask each other to 'pass the pipe'
One of our catch phrases is 'Fuck you Gazza, will ya?'

This is Rocks Off.
This ain't no tea party.
We are Stonesian mutant lunatics who love our little playground."---Lady Jane, October 2007
