There are several official outlets for Hubble images, so I'm not sure where you're having problems. I Googled Hubble and Fountain of Youth and came up with this site, which doesn't give me problems loading any of the available images, including the highest resolutions. Is that where you're trying to get images?orin stepanek wrote:Every time I try to download a Hubble release; the site locks up and I can't view the release. Old releases also. I don't have this trouble on any other site. I'm just wondering if anyone else has this problem. Yesterday Hubble released a picture called the Fountain of Youth. When I tried to get a large picture of it; I had to end my browsing as the site locked up.
Yes Chris; I tried that site. I couldn't even scroll down on that web page. It gave me green bars all across the bottom and just sat there. I even had to log off in order to get off the site.Chris Peterson wrote:There are several official outlets for Hubble images, so I'm not sure where you're having problems.

I never used to have this problem. I wonder if it has to do with my renewed Norton security?It does sound like something on your system. I don't run any security software on my computers, since the cure is worse than the disease. I've seen a lot of problems caused by Norton, so that could be an issue. Did you try using a different browser?orin stepanek wrote:Yes Chris; I tried that site. I couldn't even scroll down on that web page. It gave me green bars all across the bottom and just sat there.

And from a purely practical standpoint, caps don't "flow". If they did, we wouldn't need lower case letters. Writing that is all in caps is simply difficult to read, and it is impolite to place that burden on your readers.bystander wrote:As long as I've been involved with user groups (back in the days of ARPANET), all caps was considered shouting.harry wrote:So! caps are impolite.
