with "bookmark" written on it. At the end of each post. I think it is going to finally push me over the edge.

I don't think it's always been there.

And has the banner got more colourful? Has the older woman now got an orange head? confused

Yes! Blame it on the bookmarks grin

Ana Tue 18-Feb-14 19:37:57

I've stopped doing it, it was making me feel giddy...hmm

Thistledoo You aren't 'saving' the posts, you're saving your place in the thread, just like you'd put a bookmark in a page of a book when you were stopping reading for a while.

I noticed the blue book mark too, have read all the posts and sorry I still don't know what to do with it, why would we save the posts anyway.
I must be a bit thick here.

I had them yesterday but not today and as far as I am aware I havn't twiddled with anything but then I do find computers seem to like to confuse me at very frequent intervals.

Dear GN

I can't stand the blue bookmark square ,sorry but it is annoying. Quite iritating actually.

Can those who don't like it remove it or are we lumbered with it.

Tech have fixed the bookmarks option in 'customise' now - if you switch them off, they shouldn't appear.

Ooh, it works. Just a finger press and place saved smile

I'm mesmerised smile

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 14-Feb-14 23:14:28

Don't think about them. Or you will get mesmerised.

I'm a bit of a fidget with the mouse when I'm on the PC. So the little blue bits are flashing up here and there all the time while I'm reading the thread. grin

I'm getting used to it. smile

Galen Fri 14-Feb-14 13:30:09

Blimey, two of you there at once?

margaretm74 Fri 14-Feb-14 13:09:47

And why do the posts keep going orange when I touch them - it didn't do it yesterday?

LucyGransnet (GNHQ) Fri 14-Feb-14 12:18:02

Don't know what you mean Galen <gaily throws rose petals about while guzzling champagne>

p.s. newsletter is on its way wink

Ana Fri 14-Feb-14 11:48:27

And strangely enough, it still works even if you haven't opted for bookmark links! confused

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 14-Feb-14 11:35:26

Yeah. Quite. grin

Lona Fri 14-Feb-14 11:26:19

BTW the bookmarks are only there when you're logged in [smartarse]

Galen Fri 14-Feb-14 11:19:32

I thought my eyes had gone funny when I noticed it a few days ago!
PLEASE don't do that sort of thing to our geriatric eyes without warning us!smile
Btw, where's our news letter? Or are you too busy chomping on the valentine chocs and champagne given to you by your countless admirers?

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 14-Feb-14 11:12:32

Sigh! Someone spotted it on Mumsnet. #cleversticks
