You can suggest topics too

If you have idea of some topic that I have not yet posted about (check the archive), please leave a comment. Of course if you think some post needs some post needs updating, that's fine too.

PS: anonymoys comments are possible, I'm going to keep them enabled if there's not too much trouble from them. So commenting shouldn't be too hard.

Antero, I like the voting feature you have aside. May I ask how to make one? Do you mind to write something about fighting against spyware? I might post my confusion regarding this issue on mine later. Is it possible to add a theme music onto our blogs with Opera Community? If so, where I can find the instruction? Also, I found your "Missing pieces" pretty helpful and explaining my previous problems with IE. Thanks.
Peace!

So many questions :smile:

Polls are hidden in your accounts preferences. If you want to check your polls results, you can see them in same place, just click polls name (or maybe the voting in your own poll helps with that, but I don't want to skew results by voting in my own poll).

I have done at least one post about spyware, but if you still have questions after reading that, just ask. Here's one: http://my.opera.com/anzah/blog/show.dml/402406

All other posts seem to use security tag, I should have some post about free anti-virus too. Oh, here: http://my.opera.com/anzah/blog/show.dml/405120

I'm not sure about theme music. Background music is not good idea in web pages, but at least you can make sticky post that has link to music of your choosing.
