I wanted to try out [[Internet Relay Chat]], but couldn't find an easy way to do it. The easiest I found was Chatzilla on Firefox. If you haven't tried it, I suggest you use the free [[Open software|open source]] and "Best of Class" [http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ Firefox] web browser, with its free open source [https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=16 Chatzilla] plugin. That way Chatzilla opens a new window leaving your browser window as-is. Chatzilla has many helpful features, including automatically scrolling the window down so you see new text. If you have Firefox with Chatzilla click on this link to connect to the international NVC live chat IRC forum: irc://irc.freenode.net#nvc

I find that there are several versions of my login name still active on the NVC chat link above, apparently because I closed the connection without first leaving the NVC chat. I haven't found any way to close those, so don't be surprised to see me shown as online when I'm really not. If you'd like to meet with me in the NVC IRC channel, email me first so we can arrange a time.

Here's me, wandering into the world of wiki.

Feelings: curiosity, hope, playfulness.
Needs: contribution, mutuality.

I was about to ask you if you'd like to start a page for mug shots like the one we started here : fr:Trombinoscope ! It helps us to recognize each other as human beings Smiley.png --Dieudonné 21:54, 29 May 2006 (CEST)

Yes and no. Yes I'd like to see that too, no I don't want to start it. :)
I think I'm going to concentrate on the french part in a first time. ;) --D
Meanwhile I've just been looking for how to put captions under images, and so far no luck. -JW
Captions, like theses ? :

Yes! Thanks. I'd like to add something about how to do that to the MediaWiki help area, but don't have time now and will probably forget all about it within a day or two. It looks like the |thumb| part doesn't make it a small "thumbnail" but instead puts it at the right margin with wrap, eh? -JW
You can set it to the left, bigger, etc... It's all in the Manual :)) -D
