hah, no, in that case it just means "big provola" where provola comes from latin for buffalo milk's cheese
7:23 am
mael
the -one/a suffix means big, the -ino/a suffix means small
7:24 am

yes it's a good one Ori! Same with Molly's, totally agree.

I remember when people used to change their icons all the time. Now there are only a few who do it. Some people have had the same icon for so long that the kids in the picture are now adults.
10:30 am

I'm reluctant to change mine because I can never remember the pixel size and don't want a giant icon that folks only see a small portion of.

I have often said that this place should have a bulletin board. For "how to resize an icon picture", what is the link to Expert, news of any difference in the grid and the list, or where LIickety is if he isn't up...stuff like that.

no, missing O P and A
6:01 pm

I still need 2 A's and 3 P's, so I prob only have the O
6:02 pm
moolingwa
missing an A on the first row
6:02 pm

it's the only A
6:03 pm
