Leeds/Bradford, UK no mantids in the wild here .

 

[Rick]

I've lived in the states of IL, KY, and NC. I have spent some time overseas as well. Ive found mantids in all three states. Mostly carolinas, and chinese but in addition to those we have brunners here in NC. I found chinese mantids in Korea too.

ArkBlue, wow it is difficult to read your posts in that blue color, in some threads I have to click and drag my mouse over your text to be able to read the post, but somehow i can see your text fairly well here but mostly I can not. or maby it´s just my eyes.

It's hard to read with the Euphoria skin, but I just drag my cursor over it. Do you use one of the other skins, Ark Blue?

I have the same problem with your posts, Danny! :blink: See.... I told you before in a PM, lol! I always have to highlight your text just to be able to read it. And even then it's still difficult with the small size in this font too. Yeah, it's nice being different.... but truthfully it's a pain trying to read your posts! (sorry!!!! )

Edit: Oh.... I'm in Illinois, and I've lived in several towns/cities in Illinois all of my life. (Except for when I was a kid, and would go live with my Dad for a few weeks each summer... Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Kentucky... wherever he was living at the time.)

Ok now how about this?, and I don't see any dif skin Phil.

 

[PhilinYuma]

The box for changing the skin is right at the bottom of the page on the left next to "English."

Oh, and I forgot to say, I was born in London, England,spent the war in Sussex and came over here around '61 and lived most of the time in IL, but also in HA, CA and currently AZ. I think that the first praying mantis I saw was in Hawaii.

If you guys used the IP Board Pro you would be able to read it.

Thanks, wow very much diffirence since I changed to IP borad pro! The green color on the orginal one you start with is very cool but this blue color I have now is much better to read off. I will keep this setting for sure.

Don't get too used to it as it is going away and the Euphoria will be the only option. I don't like it either.

But why?

Is it not possible to make a new Euphoria with lighter colors?

I know that in other forums it is possible to customize it.

And I was so happy to be finally able to read well this forum in stead of always kind of struggling.

I live in Sydney, Australia. Here be many types of mantids. I have found Gardens (O. ministralis), False Gardens (P. albofimbriata), Snakes (K. diademata) and Large Browns (A. latislaya) but I'm sure there are cryptics here somewhere.

 

[Katnapper]

Yes, that is better, Danny! I don't have to highlight to read. I've noticed I can't read small print very well recently... a noticeable decrease in last 6 months or so... and getting more difficult it seems all of the time. I think I'm going to have to either keep my "cheaters" (cheap generic magnifying eyeglasses) glued to me for when I need them , or go back to the eye doctor and get an exam for some real ones. Egads... is this what it means to be getting old?!! :huh:

It's all down hill from here, Katt. One of the first things that happens is that after a night out drinking, it's much harder to get up and go to work. Your vision begins to fade, and after a while, even new spectacles don't help. Instead of taking your psychedelic drugs at a rave and charging around singing to the band, you drop a tab in yr easy chair and admire the purple halo around "I love Lucy." Instead of saying, "Ouch! My back aches!" you say "My regular back ache isn't quite so bad today!" You start saying things like, "When I was a kid," and "Back in the Day."

Policemen start to look like schoolboys. The list goes on and on.

I know that it will happen to me in a decade or two, and frankly, I'm dreading it!
