I had a Rusty Tussock ( sounds rude i know!) moth caterpillar on my geraniums a few years ago, i was amazed at the amount of shit it excreted, so i called it Cameron! :wink:
On a related note, i once cut into a fresh Ox liver, and discovered a liver fluke, a type of maggoty parasiteā€¦:nauseated_face::face_vomiting:

The one I found was a Tomato Hornworm ! It was big but luckily didnā€™t poo on me :slightly_smiling_face:

@Ian_Chimp - I know. Caterpillars are like tiny poop machines.

I went with worm because I could at least pretend I have one of those Gummi worms in my mouth insteadā€¦ albeit a bit more lively :sweat_smile:

They are not the same texture. At all. :slightly_smiling_face:

(@KinkyInky Iā€™ve replied in the Sandbox so I donā€™t derail Cassiiā€™s topic :slightly_smiling_face:)

If you like to play with the formatting then this is the topic for you. You can have a no-pressure practice of pretty much anything you fancy in here. :+1::slightly_smiling_face:

There are also a few extra tips in Bonus Formatting too. :+1:

Oooh thanks - so many options in here! Of all the many forum architectures Iā€™ve seen over the years, this is something different with lots of interesting options! Iā€™m disappointed thereā€™s no scrollable topic list to the side of the page, but very few forums use that these days!

There are a few ways to do it, but the simplest is just highlighting an extract and a little floating QUOTE box will show up. Tap that and itā€™ll auto fill all the bits into your reply box. :+1:

Feel free to have a practice in here. :slightly_smiling_face:

Perfect :+1::slightly_smiling_face:

It seems you can nest the <small> tags to go diddy. :slightly_smiling_face:

Natureā€™s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leafā€™s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

I think Iā€™ll need hawk eyes to read that small :joy:

Doesnā€™t seem to work for big though, at least not for me!

No, the internet said it would work, but it doesnā€™t seem to on here. :man_shrugging:

@Ian_Chimp Sorry, been busy, busy. This is the source code for my question number 10 in the quiz:


10. P &nbsp;  Ć”  &nbsp; ci &nbsp; ? = <big>J</big> <small>a</small>!
      1 &emsp; &nbsp; 100

All three of the methods I know for different sizes spaces seen to work so thatā€™s good :+1:t2:

I this en is two spaces em is four spaces but nb is the one I use by defaultā€¦ I have no idea what these letters stand for but they seem to work. I only used two different ones in the question text to see if it worked.
