If you try to copy Serif documents from your old computer to the new one you end up leaving all your source documents behind - like images, fonts, etc.
Use ‘Save As Package’ on your old computer to include all (unprotected) fonts, images, and other resources.
Any other ideas?
I wish I had, Cliff! I’m afraid you’ll have to wait and see what more experienced users of PagePlus can come up with.
Not Classical, but definitely "classic". One of the very best Dixieland style jazzbands I've come across. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Un7TdFdPJdM
Most enjoyable. Thanks for the link, Geoff.
By the way, the piece halfway through that is not given a title in English, is called "Moon sand", or so a combination of Abbyy FineReader and Google Translate suggests. "Moon dust" might be more accurate.
Google Translate tells me that 月の砂漠 means ‘Moon Desert’ (or ‘Desert of the Moon’).
月の
tsuki no
of the moon
砂漠
sabaku
desert
It is a truth not as yet universally acknowledged
I see what you did there! 
You’re welcome, William, but I’m curious as to what you intend to do with the information!
Levington John Innes Seed Compost 30L

The ‘ForestWalk’ page is here.
The trees look identical, apart from one which is smaller than the others! It isn’t clear how one is meant to ‘walk’ between them.
Here is a direct link, for you and for anyone else who chooses to try the forest walk.
That’s a direct link to the ‘ShopsWithFreeStuff’ page. The ‘ForestWalk’ page is here.
Definitely different, Eric! Thanks for sharing.
Have you noticed the forest walk, entered through the walkway in the row of shops?
William
I hadn’t noticed, but it’s been quite a while since I last visited the ‘ShopsWithFreeStuff’ page.
I have just noticed that you have fixed the gaps in the Isometric Village.
Thank you.
William
The gaps are much smaller now, but they’re still present for me.
you still get a gap at the bottom
Reviewing my steps, I see that I got rid of that gap by specifying
line-height:0px;on the W3Schools ‘Tryit’ page, but the same trick doesn’t work on the PmWiki page.
Looking at it carefully how it is now, it seems correct along each row, the outstanding problem seems to be beween rows: what if it were text would be called the leading (from the strips of lead betwen rows of characters when handsetting metal type).
So it is as if we need to reduce the leading to zero, if that is possible.
William
As you’ll have noticed, William, I’ve been playing with this but can’t see how to do it. If you go to
https://www.w3schools.com/html//tryit.a … ellpadding
and change
th, td {
padding: 15px;to
th, td {
padding: 0px;the padding below the text looks the same as the padding above. However, if you replace one of the name lines with HTML code for an image, I expect you’ll find (as I did) that you still get a gap at the bottom. For example, try replacing
<td>Jackson</td>with
<td><img src=https://www.allaboutbirds.org/news/wp-content/themes/html5blank-stable/images/blue-winged-warbler.jpg" alt"blue-winged warbler"></img></td>
Thank you.
I'll try to find out if that can be adjusted.
William
You’re welcome, but I’ve just tried adding
|| border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"and it hasn’t done much, if anything.
Ah, I thought you meant something else that I didn’t recall seeing there yesterday. The Isometric Village seems to be newer than that.
I think the problem is that you’ve used a table but you haven’t set the cell spacing correctly.
Ah, the latest attempt does not quite work.
Can it be fixed please?
William
I can try, William, but you haven’t stated what needs fixing.
Has anyone noticed what I added to the wiki earlier this morning?
William
I’ve noticed, but I wonder whether anyone else has! (This would, of course, require the visitor to know that it wasn’t there before this morning.)
Hope you enjoy my efforts.
Very much. Thanks for posting.
A minor oddity: when I first watched it early today the default thumbnail image (displayed before I pressed ‘Play’) was missing, but it’s there now.
Thank you both.
I’ve increased the size limit for uploaded files from 50 000 to 256 000 bytes (i.e. 250 KB) and I’ve uploaded a JPG file whose size is very close to that limit (247.15 KB). Visit Room 2 to view the file in question.
I was quite surprised to learn that 'socially' is an adverb.
I’m struggling to think of an adjective root with an -ly ending that isn’t an adverb!
Ah, it appears that uploading images needs to be specifically enabled by the administrator.
Thank you, William. I’ve done that now.
I opine that it is advisible to set it up so that only registered forum members can upload images, or edit the wiki.
I concur, but for testing purposes I’ve enabled it for everyone. The current password is: S3cr3t-ish
I’ve just installed PmWiki. Play with it here: https://punster.me/wiki
So what I have suggested could, I think, probably be done with HTML on a website.
Can it be done in a wiki? Is a wiki just text and stand-alone images or can one use HTML structures such as a table?
PmWiki allows the use of tables, inter alia. Take a look at the Tables section of the Text Formatting Rules page.
@Alfred Is your webspace capable of hosting more than this forum please?
Such as a wiki where registered participants of this forum could generate pages and edit any pages?
Or some sort of 3d wiki?
I could easily install something like PmWiki, but I’m not at all sure what “some sort of 3D wiki” might be.
