    Angry An Internet Channel Annoyance.

    Well, Nintendo's being idiotic again. I go to Youtube, and find a video I need to watch later. I favorite it in the browser quickly, and no image is on it. "Meh," I say as I go to another page. After a while, I turned it off and back on to clear the RAM (because that causes a LOT of pages to go "OH NOES NO MEMORIES. REFRESH?") and I go into the favorites to go to Google, and the picture for it appears... in place of the one for Yahoo. I decide to Google for this, and all it is is GameSpot topics and those "parent info" places. So, what I wonder is if anyone knows how to fix this?

    Also, if it needs moving, move this to Technical Help. I thought it'd fit better here because of the modern aspect.

    All I can think of is deleting the bookmark and then bookmarking the page again. I think a snapshot is taken of the page as it is bookmarked so if it hasn't fully loaded you might get no picture. I can't explain it switching with yahoo, could an improper shutdown confuse the Wii?

    As a last resort, it might be worth deleting your save data for the Internet channel to clear all of the thumbnails (but you will lose your bookmarks and other settings)

    Hmm, that might work. Still, it's hard to break my habit of shutting it off with the remote. That, and I destroyed my data before, and it's a bitch to get all the bookmarks back. Trust me, it's annoying.

    My thoughts exactly. NOOOO, don't go with Firefox to make a revoloutionary portable browser with good quality, use a faulty Opera piece of shit with bad flash! GODDAMMIT!

    Also, don't watch Tourettes Guy before posting. ASSSSSSS!
