Flags... it would be nice if...

As my knowledge of countries flags is somewhat lacking, it would be great if you could hover over the flag in a posting and see which part of the world someone is in.

Hi Mooly.

I'm using Chrome currently. If I right click on the flag it offers "open image in new tab" Once that is done it shows the country name in the tab for you.

I don't know about Internet Exploder, we haven't used it for years.

In Internet Explorer, right-click on the flag and select Properties.

Flags are going to get an overhaul sometime in the future, once the next round of infrastructure is built and we can get back to the UI! Might use the famfamfam flags - good looking but a bit small.. famfamfam.com: Flag Icons

Thanks John and Frank... I never thought of doing that (hmmm... tbh I didn't have a clue you could actually do that lol)

thanks

I see what Jason means about the others being a bit small.
