We need a WebHostingFail Quotes section.

A simple page, with a random giant quote from a WHF provider in the middle.

@Zen is coding some type contact form I think.

PM me if you think you could provide me with HTML for something like that. I'm not even a good coder but what I do code is -always- backend. So if you had a template with those styles that I could use I would be grateful.

You'll probably want to use linebreaks instead of new paragraphs in your references section, it looks very spaced out right now :) Shift+Enter should do the job. Otherwise, Ctrl+Enter.

The share thing on the right make its extremely annoying to read.

edit* I browse on a portrait monitor so thats probably whats making it take up a quarter of the text.

It looks like I know that templates. It's Radius right?

Honestly cant even tell if dewlance is trolling or not anymore, lol this cannot be real. Or maybe I just don't want to believe....

home page should have a character limit that then provides a link to "read full story" (so each story doesn't stretch it)
