I always get the "Tripod sidebar" when I try to go to a tripod site, so I never get to see anything that is on tripod. Don't know what's up with that. Any clues how to get around it?

[Donna]

Thanks for the links, Corla!

Dot, I get the Tripod sidebar, too, but I don't worry about it. When I'm done visiting, I just close the sidebar.

I can't close it and it's full screen so I can't see the site. Are there adjustments I'm not seeing?

[Donna]

Hmm... Mine just comes up as a small sidebar to the left of the screen. It has an X in the upper right hand corner to close it. Not sure why it's coming up as full screen on your computer. Try this: At the top area of the Tripod sidebar where it says "Search", right click anywhere on that gray area. That should bring up a little menu where you can choose "Close Toolbar." Let me know if that works for you, Dot.

:scratchchin It's a browser thang! I went on a Tripod forum and they are not happy with this sidebar! Apparently it doesn't work with all browsers and "hijacks" the screen if your not using a compatible browser. I use "Secure IE" as my main browser and Tripod doesn't recognize it. I used IE6 and tried to open it again and WALLAH! it opened. What a pain in the patoot for those web masters and mistresses using Tripod's free accounts. They are loosing visitors like me who will just give up on them. That's a shame...</end rant> :)

I love looking for new free patterns and get so excited when I can find new sites. :clap :cheer :bounce When ever I come across anything I will post it here and at the smart crochet board. If you have not been to www.crochetpatterncentral.com/ (http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com/)
yet then that is a place to visit first. Rachel has one of the best set ups so far for finding patterns and is staying right on top of things. She has also put on a new site that has all her new found patterns. I think she is going to try and do that page every week. I was a bit bumbed about that tripod thing too, but now that you wonderful ladies have explained it to me I will just keep turning it off. Hope you all found at least something that interested you.:wave :hug Corla
