Although that is still ungainly. The sentence could use a complete rewrite. "Why not just use Issuu, you may ask?" There should be no question mark at the end of this sentence.

Yet another reason to stay away from Macs! I don't remember to use that function as often as I should, but it's great for undistracted reading -- and of course for taking screenshots.

And when you visit others sites? On a Mac it's not possible to do. I've downloaded software add-ons such a Mega-zoomer but I haven't the motivation to learn how to hack Cocoa, which is what I understand is something you have to be able to do (hack Cocoa!) to make it work. I'm really glad to hear you can enjoy full screen viewing, though. I'll have to get around a PC sometime and give it a try. As a blogger manque I had felt that the bright wash of the time/date home strip above the browser frame, not to mention the browser frame itself, so compromised my dark, very low contrast images that I declined to publish. <i>Spoil</i> is so very clean and poised. I wish I could take it out of "its wrapper"! Do you take advantage of it and enjoy it then? And when you visit others sites? On a Mac it’s not possible to do.

Thanks. Bill - If you're using the latest version of Firefox, clicking the F11 key will do that for you. Marja-Leena – Good to hear that you think so. Thanks.
