Who uses the Preview button?

Post by Rainigul »

When I'm posting, I always see the "preview" button next to the "submit" button, and I've noticed I've never used the preview button.
I want to know, how many of you use the "preview" button when posting?

M'kay.
So what is your definition of significant?
Like pictures or something?
I'm sure the original intent was to say that this thread is stupid or something, but why would you use preview on anything? I mean, if you're doing pictures maybe, but I've only messed up once on pictures, and it was because I was using stupid imageshack.

I usually proof-read my posts before I click submit. Never use preview.
Peace.

I usually make really stupid mistakes at first. Like like writing a word twice in a row.

If the post is important or long, I preview it. Otherwise not.

i agree with mastachief

i only use it on posts that are important, this one isnt really important, it dosnt matter if something is wrong, i also use it when doing quotes and images just to make sure i havnt screwed up the tags.
