hey dunc i downloaded opera thought a change is as good as a rest and to be honest not bad so far i was a bit impressed soon as i started it up its like its showing the web pages in a better resolution compared to IE7 and firefox,as long as i have no problems posting and viewing sites i think ill stick with it.

i did here that opera has a toolbar that u can put ur favourite web sites on rather than use bookmarks have u heard anything about it or how i set it up cos thats the only thing that pissed me off with firefox is to get to a site u had to go to bookmarks then if u had it in a folder open another menu it just pissed me off thats the only thing i like about IE is that the bookmarks are just one click away.

Yes mate. Opera call it speed dial and it allows you to load up nine sites that you can click on from the one webpage and have instant access...

Go here... http://www.opera.com/support/tutorials/flash/speeddial/

This is the version of opera to download with speed dial

http://www.opera.com/download/

yeah thats the one i got good idea and u can refresh all the thumbs as well,just have to fill it up now and decide which sites to put in there blink.gif

everything is clearer using opera i dunno someat about it,it seems like opera is inhancing the resolution or something silly but everything is clearer easier to read and me eyes aint getting any younger TalkFootball/doh.gif TalkFootball/giggle[1].gif

think ill stick with it and give it a good go this time cos ie is slow as shit and firefox got so much stuff i get lost with it. TalkFootball/giggle[1].gif

You can do this in FireFox as well.
Bookmarks Toolbar Folder...

and you can have more than 9 bookmarks.
As you can see I have 22.

i tried making a screeny of the speed dial thing but print screen and open paint and ctrl and v dont work when u try it in paint it says unable to copy clipboard .

dunc any ideas cos i need to be able to do this when i copy the predict leagues and fantasy leagues, also i needto disable the torrent client built in to opera i been told not to use it i dont mind because my utorrent is running perfect with opera in fact way better than with ie or ff i can actually still browse even though my uploads and downloads are running at max if i tried it in ie it would just time out the website i was trying to view until i restricted my down uploads but with opera i can still browse ok it takes a little longer to load when im running utorrent at the max but i can still browse the web.

No mate the actual bookmarks in the toolbar i have to go looking for mine and my favs like here and masters (and obviously porn) are a bit more than a click away. rolleyes.gif

scotty this is way easier everytime u hit new tab it automatically opens up the speed dial and its like a web page in front of u with 9 thumbnails all the sites u pick to put in there click one and it goes straight to that site way easier than scrolling through menus for ur bookmarks i got 2 torrent sites 3 footy forums my p2p google my photobucket and the bbc sport all as thumnails and i can swap the order of them remove them put in different ones way easy.

Hi Sav,

Not entirely sure myself, but if you go here and ask your question, some bright spark will be able to sort you out.......

I just sussed it i created my own toolbar opened bookmarks and dragged and dropped what i wanted into the new toolbar...fooking brilliant cos you can either click on it or open in new tab/window.

Might change to opera though if masters dont stop crashing my ff...hope its only happening to me.. TalkFootball/giggle[1].gif

turned off the bittorrent in opera found a how to and it was easy now i only need to sort out taking screenies and im staying with it firefox is gone completley and ie ill just use to update windows mind u im running vista so i might be able to get shot of ie all together. scotty im uploading at 30 kBs and i can still browse and it aint affecting the speed so it will do me.
