HERE are some tips for those that want to be able to save a topic...AND print them at YOUR leisure... <!--graemlin::cool:-->

This DOES require you to have Micorsoft Word... <!--graemlin::o-->

For those without Microsoft Office (Excel, Word etc...), you can get it for as little as $85 (usually $300+)...now this price DOES mean that you give up DIRECT online support and the manuals that normally come with the software, but with the online help and tutorials you can find at OTHER websites (including Microsoft), this is NOT much of an issue <!--graemlin:;)-->

IF you do, open up a NEW Office document, and click on "File", "Page Setup"...and chose either the Portrait OR Landscape option (your choice...I prefer "Landscape" for these website things)...

1. When you are in a thread where you want to be able to print / save the "website page" (where you see the little numbers in the upper right hand corner of the webpage, thread etc...), click on the WEBSITE toolbar button that says "Tools", and then "Printer Friendly Format" as shown in this pic...



Once you are there, click on your Browser's "Edit", and then "Select All" (shown in the NEXT pic)... then Re-click on "Edit", then "Copy", (OR you can "right click" (with your mouse cursor on the the "darkened / highlighted" area of the page), and click on "Copy" also)...



Then go to your Word document and "Paste" (with either a "right click" or a left click on the Tool Bar "Edit / Paste"...

You have then copied and pasted AND saved the WEBSITE page (Color pics and ALL) to a Word document...which you can either Print at home on YOUR printer OR you can Save it to a floppy disc or CD and take it to a printing company and have them print it... <!--graemlin::cool:-->

IF you adjust your left and right, top and bottom "Margins" as shown in this NEXT pic, you will have a fairly decent document that you can save...to whatever...and print at your own leisure...and depending on the "printer", it WILL show the color pics etc <!--graemlin::cool:-->



You can ALSO remove excess "stuff" from the doc, as I have highlighted in the pic...just "highlight and Delete" <!--graemlin::D-->
