^ you should ask that in the suggestion forums =3

silly question about Microsoft Words, I added a word to the dictionary list that I now want to remove, but how do you remove words from a language word list
(in case people don't understand, the word is Rollo and now everytime i spell it it gets graded as the rightfull spelling while it is actually Rolo lol, now I want the Rollo version out of the list so that when I type Rollo it gets the nice little red line underneath. I know I could also do it with the auto correction by changing the word to Rolo everytime I type it but there are a lot of Rollo words in my fic and finding them through removal from the list makes it easier)

Oh and by the way, thanks to those who responded to my questions. I thanked them privately but I thought I'd do it here for some reason.

As far as I know, there has been no anime series that focuses exclusively on the legend of werewolves, although a number of works have borrowed the gadget. For example, one of the main characters in Spriggan is a werewolf.

It cannot be classified into "anime" in today's sense, but Vampire by Osamu Tezuka (contrary to the title, it is a story about lycans) was made into a TV programme in 1969, which was a mixture of live-action with animation.

Ah, okay, I understand completely now. I'll be sure that it's meaningful and deals with the topic of the main thread. Thanks a bunch, Cats, cicido, and WK, I really appreciate it. :D

In your user CP(top of the page) there is on the left side beneth "Settings & Options" -> "Edit Avatar"

There you can define if you want to use a standard Avatar or if you want to use an external Avatar from a website or from a local folder which will be uploaded to AS.
But be careful with the size of the image:
The maximum size of your custom image is 100 by 100 pixels or 50.0 KB (whichever is smaller).

The current version of the vBulletin software that runs the forum will no longer inform you that an avatar upload is too large. Rather it creates a static image from the first frame of the avatar, and a very poor quality image at that. So make sure to check the size before uploading.

I have a question about my avatar when it's viewed in the profile or in the social groups where the avatar is shrunked.

ex. -

As you can see there, my avatar looks much like a bad television set, but when it's viewed such as the regular forums, it looks normal with out and distortions. Is it just my side that is have issues with it? Maybe something about VBulletin not being able to handle PNG format or distortions when the image is automatically resized?

Doesn't seem to be handling the transparency either, I'm assuming its resampling your avatar to the smaller size for visitor messages and that screws it up every which way because it simply can't fit what's required in the smaller size.

It's due to vB introducing some "intelligence" into the recent release of the forum. I suggest you take it up with them since it's their code that does the poor job of resizing the image.

You should also be aware that the poor quality image is also used on the Profile page when you are listed as a friend. So it's not just you, we all see it like that

Why was the name "Haruhi" written in katakana, but not Hiragana?

Or were all names in Japanese were written in katakana?

Or did I mess up somewhere...

Katakana is simply another form of writing things. Sometimes it can be akin to writing in ALL CAPS in a Western language to make a word stand out. Lots of words are written in katakana just to do that, even when there's a viable kanji option, and it's very common to do it with names. Likewise, there are many words that are traditionally written in hiragana even when there are kanji for them. Another notable thing about Japanese writing is when they use kanji to write an evidently foreign word--in that case, they use furigana to spell out the pronunciation, and the kanji serve as a way to explicit the meaning of the word.

Bottom line: Japanese writing rules (as every rule when it comes to a language) is not as tight as one would suppose.

Another questions: i know there are 26( 26 right?) characters of katakana, 26 characters of Hiragana , another 7000(or somewhere around there) Kanji (which is similar with Chinese characters as i remember).

But what is furigana?

And can people "guess" what i am writing if i write a whole sentence in Hiragana (given they can see my situation)?

Finally, is it normal for Japanese to turn their back at you and walk straight away after finished the conversation? I found it's extremely annoyed, but not sure if it was just a difference in culture of not
