otsukare for translating those AA (´人｀)
I changed from 600x160 to 200x180 then, how is it like this? There is no AA
there that even approaches to 200 characters in a line, and this should be
enough for Japanese links (at least those I tested) too.
I am not sure if it's usenet style, Japanese use their enter buttons like we
use dots on internet (;＾Д^)
I read an explanation for that some time ago but don't remember details. In any
case, now it's impossible to longpost without breaking ur lines ヽ(´∇`)ノ
