I've been experimenting. I took a "Taper Candle" (box from IKEA) and broke it in half, put the halves in a jar and poured in the melted candles.
Seems to be working well.
... the other experiments... not so much.
Ok, as an experiment, I took a tea candle and then poured some melted wax from old candles around it into a little jar, and once solid lit the candle.
Seemed to be working fine... but then it got to the point where it seemed that the wax was drowning the flame:
All the wicks I've been using have been from existing candles. In fact, I thought the easiest / most reliable thing to do would be to use an existing candle (tall skinny one) and put it in the middle of a jar, then pour melted candles around it... but this hasn't work in all the different ways...
This is fantastic, thanks for sharing!
I have some weird addiction with candles... especially taking the remaining bits of old candles and putting them together into new candles.
The problem I have is always with the wicks. It seems (for reasons beyond my area of expertise) that the candles...
It's definitely your phone. I just used my Android and uploaded all of these At Once by pressing and holding on one and then selecting multiple with checks
Thanks for letting us know! Can you grab a screenshot and also let us know which browser / version you are on, and we can work to duplicate it and get it fixed?
Interesting thread! (now on the new homepage) ;)
I don't think I've ever had mice in my house, but I've always had a problem with rats. I wonder if they don't co-exist?
... what I do know is that controlling them has been a nightmare and it seems they are winning!
Yesterday in fact, I setup a...
That's super odd. I have an Android phone and all the icons show great for me. What type of device are you on and which browser are you using on your phone?
It looks like you might be in "BBCODE" mode. Click the little gear / settings icon and see if that toggles you back to the regular editor.
Agreed! The more we can systematize things, the easier it is to maintain stuff! Keeping everything running smoothly across so many sites can be a bit crazy and pretty stressful.
Interesting idea! If we get enough peeps interested, we'd definitely look into it.
Are there existing threads / posts already being made for these kinds of things, but just in other sections?
Just a quick note that I'm SUPER impressed that this thread has been going smoothly and hasn't been anything reported!
It's so very rare that people can discuss these divisive topics without them going south within the 1st page. Heck, I know I even get pretty stirred-up with stuff that's going...
Oh! One thing we are thinking about adding back is the "Random Images" block that we used to have at the top of the forum list. We think this would be fun to add to the homepage.
... but then another part of me thinks it was nice having it at the top of the forum list.
Thoughts?
