What happened in this picture here?

[Gina Stevenson]

Strange things happen sometimes re computer/NN forums. Not sure if this is just some "web glitch" or some "vbulletin glitch." Whatever, the picture of the little guy I posted in the prayer forum was so tiny, it was hard to see details, so I was going to enlarge it a bit [ending up suggesting it could be enlarged the usual way one enlarges a page].

Sooo, clicked on it [doubly] thinking it might pull up the pic in "edit" mode to enlarge it some. This undecipherable gobbledygook is what occurred along with the picture, instead of a picture in edit mode:

Anyone recognize this "language"? Can't believe it took the note that was in the post along with it (presume it's that note) and did this to it. Weird, huh? ;)

Has anyone else haf such a weird thing happen? Furthermore, does anyone have any idea how on earth this does happen? :smilies0275:



(just learned that clicking on the red X in the corner enlarges it so it's "readable" ... tho' not sure this could be considered "readable" material. ;))

Lorem ipsum is placeholder language... you often see it in templates (like powerpoint templates). I think (but I haven't played with it), that you got the screen that edits the alignment of the text, showing whether the text is right-aligned, left-aligned, etc. I don't know why it doesn't use your text instead of placeholder text.

Oh, I never heard of such a thing. Very strange. ;)

Thanks, Jon

[Didn't really think it had a name when I asked re the "language," but I see it does have a name, after all. ;) ]

Edited to add that it appears I've "learned my (one) new thing for today!" ;)
