Hi all!

It has been proposed (credits to Mrs_Linnea_Snape) to open a topic, where you can ask all those pesky little questions that have been bugging you for ages. Sometimes it could be worth a try to open a topic, but often enough it's just a minor thing, and then this is the place.

Everybody is invited to ask, and likewise everybody is invited to answer.

Fire away!
