This is odd. I just tried embedding a tweet in a thread in the main forum. When I click preview post, the tweet appears:

http://up.metropol247.co.uk/Philip/Screen%20shot%202012-05-16%20at%2015_14_30.png

But when I post it, it just appears as this:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet tw-align-center"><p>ITV stopped showing children's programmes 6 years ago. They stopped making them at the same time. Hope this isn't the case with BBC.</p>&mdash; Tony Gardner (@Tonygardner) <a href="https://twitter.com/Tonygardner/status/202757031139090433" data-datetime="2012-05-16T13:46:57+00:00">May 16, 2012</a></blockquote>

Well I cheated a bit, by taking a screenshot of it and blanking out the clickable buttons. It just looks so much nicer Razz

Darn it, I thought it was some website generated image thingy. Either way it still looks lovely. Smile

Any reason why we were just offline? I was hoping it was a software and template update!

Just a bit of prep work this time. Might be another occasion during the next week too.

It would be nice if you could pick some better music, maybe something a bit more funky Wink

Any chance of a link back on the holding page to the forum? I was refreshing until I noticed a different URL.

Woah, what's going on with the style sheet! Buttons and backgrounds are disappearing before my very eyes.
