    I blame Lidl and the like. Should really start carrying disinfecting wipes everywhere I have to touch anything that isn't my own this time of year.

    Strange, when I see my post next to yours then the image in your post appears only around 0,5 centimetres wider and the text in it is nearly identical. Could it be that my post is shown differently to you than to me?

    Probably not the post, but the image, since it's hotlinked, can look quite different to other people, depending on how the host server deals with hotlinks. It's quite common when dealing with dynamic links from CDNs or when linking from sites with limited access. It might look fine to you, especially if it's cached in your memory, but entirely different to everyone else.

    i guess, it appears as only 200 x 686 pixels for me, whereas the one i posted is 550 by 1886 px in size, so i guess about 2,5 times larger. opening your image in a new tab doesn't change the size either :S

    Alan Rickman passed away earlier today at 69. He's had plenty of major (and minor) roles in his acting career, like playing Hans Gruber in Die Hard, Metatron in Dogma, or the Sheriff of Nottingham in Prince of Thieves, but I think he'll be forever remembered as Professor Snape by most people.

    RIP, Half-Blood Prince :goodbye:
