aleks... THERE YOU ARE!!!I'm thinking that any time anyone wants to write a long-ass post, you need to compose the whole thing in MSWord first, or something, and then maybe copy/paste into Atop. I did the same thing as you, and my post disappeared into the ether when I hit "create post." When I write in Word first and copy it here, weird stuff happens, the post gets messy, the words are not separated, all in all - it is annoying as hell. Of course, what I do know now, a lot less annoying than see your labour of love go to waste:)))) ETA//// I did come up with a solution though - write on Atop, but before you click the 'create post' button, save it in Word, just in case. exactly. Or even simpler: write it here and before you click SUBMIT - select the text and then copy...you don;t even have to save it anywhere as it is now saved in your PC's memory buffer...if the post disappeared - you can paste it back... I do the 'copy' for all my posts (even though my posts are usually short)...

Oh!!! That might work! But here's the thing: When I copied big chunks of text from this new-format Atop and pasted into an email or something, the text is all squished together and the lines between text sort of get squished, too, so it's really hard to read. I dunno... maybe have to keep experimenting. It's like the formatting of the board is rejected by everything. LOL

Collaboration on new music? Maybe Niles is there, too. " Nile Rodgers' interest in the band was instantaneous and he quickly signed them to his SUMTHING label and co-produced their debut album entitled "Evolution" immediately after walking in to a sold out show at CBGB's as Jean Morisson poured a pitcher of milk all over her body saying to the audience, "Is it hot in here or is it just me?" www.mtv.com/artists/jean-morisson/biography/
Lol...sounds like Adam's type of girl.

Or even if you have to reopen your browser - then your copy will not be saved, I think.

Just found this old post from TWO YEARS AGO!! Still love it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Tuesday 24th May 2011, @80s_and_sunny said: My first impression of @adamlambert was how unbelievably, heartstoppingly, drop-the-laundry, do-a-double-take gorgeous he was. Beautiful. Perfect. Man. I could not look away.My second impression, about two seconds afterward, was how much and how deeply I instantly liked him - the total lack of swagger or cockiness, nothing but his pure, innocent heart showing on his face. I liked him immediately; I liked him immensely; I wanted to befriend him and mother him and slay dragons for him all at once. And then, before I had time to figure out just what the hell was happening to me, he opened his mouth and sang. I have never recovered.

Read more: atop.proboards.com/thread/333?ixzz1NKRJiVgX#ixzz2Oz5GKTr4 WOW!! I do not recall reading that but I must have. It is such a good description of all the things that flashed thru my head the first time I saw Adam on the Idol audition show. Something that never happened to be before and I doubt will ever happen to me again. The main thing was it was almost instantaneous. And since the moment he captured so many hearts, non-glittery dragons have been having a very hard time!!
