Mmmm ... Nancy Drew (or the Hardy boys).

No, not the place Logos dreamed up, to confuse new and experienced users alike ... 'Remove books in settings??' That has been so funny for 7 years. Plus deleting PBs.

No, I'm referring to default book covers, where Logos got lazy, and didn't produce a book cover. In my layout, the tabs are small, book covers only, and the resources with no book covers blend in with Logos-battleship-grey so well, they're hidden. Ergo, Nancy on the case.

I've never understood Logos' drive for un-usability. They stare out onto Bellingham Bay and see foggy nothingness. They've pretty much got the scrollbar gone .... I'd hate to be a newbie.

Of course, why no book cover? ... the recent 6 years-late WIVU visual, plus the Anderson phrase marker visual. And others. Are no-book-cover resourses on the server super-hard to locate? Need Nancy's help?

Then, also of course, the F11 full-screen on the visuals is truly bizarro .. the diagram slowly slips across the screen pieces at a time.

But. I'm desktop-offline, so, all of these are curiousities at Bellingham HQ. Sorry, Nancy.
