[Closed] Stupid signs

We have those at Uni. WTF's it about? Can't I just push it?

Eh its so folk in whelchairs can push the button then get through.

not very automatic then is it?

You get automatic doors that open with a button and others that open with a sensor - they both open automatically. I'm sure there is a very good reason why the sensor has been taken away and a button installed. You do know you can still just push these doors open, you don't have to use the button.

When you reach this end of the cycleway there is no legal way to proceed.

can't you ride that TJ?

Pook - actually we regularly take the tandem over a very similar set - much to the amusement of passers by.

linking to a photo on flickr didn't work..... how do I do that? Can usually post photos OK.

TJ - cool. Bet it's fun on the hairpin!

anna, take the =v?0 or whatever it is on the end of the .jpg bit

I always like the sings on roads that say "for xxxx use both lanes" rather than use either lane.

Pook I don't have a =v?0, or a .jpg. I'm looking at the url in the browser bar after having clicked on a photo on my flickr pages.

Doesnt really fit with the thread but I still find it funny:

anna - right click on the pic go to properties and copy location

Here's annabananna's pic:

Hold on aracer.... how did you know that? Rather freaked out now. And how did you post it?! Can't right click cos I have a one button mac mouse. Thanks though...

Is it one of the newer white ones? If so, you can right-click, but it's a bit tricky. If it's an older black/see-through one, then you can't.

I opened the original "image" in a new tab when you first posted it, which gave me [url]URL removed by request[/url] had to then inspect the HTML to extract the correct URL, as flickr hides the proper one (I guess if you're logged in you can do other things - wouldn't know as I only use photobucket). Then lopped the "?v=0" off the end - though it seems to still work with that:
[img] ?v=0[/img]

Hotlinking to there seems not to work WWJR (at least for me) - URL is [url] [/url]

one button mac mouses DO have a right click.

well thanks for that Tom db

Rudeboy, it's a white and see through one. It's 2nd hand so I guess it's an older one.

 

Just made me chuckle when I came across it, warning to go slow, or encouragement to keep it up? Just watch it anyway.

Aracer- thanks for explaining. Would you mind removing the link from your post to my flickr site? Ta.

annabanana; Ah, it's the same as an older black one, then. So, no right click, but you can hold down 'ctrl' and click, for the same thing.

Mac mouses are a lovely shape, and really comfy to use, but a bit limited.

OK - done, though not sure why you're so bothered - nice pics (the one posted is far, far worse than the rest!)

Anybody else having probs hotlinking?

What happened to the pre-view feature that we had in the dim & distant?

Thanks aracer, for the compliment and for removing link. Would just rather I was in control of people seeing my photos, finding out more about me etc.

Rudeboy thanks for the tip, I like it!

Aracer, your edit's funny...yes, well the thread's about stupid signs!

LOL best thread of the day!

Saw one outside a garden centre the other day,

'Never been in?
Come and see the difference!'

Don't think they're too bright in there.

With hindsight, it seems that poster of Tony B Liar wasn't far from the truth.....
