       Another winner,
       IMO, in a new series (as yet unnamed) that continues the
       sensitive and realistic story of Micah, Lily, and Uncle Daniel.

       Yeah, Mackenzie has yet to get back to me on what to name it and
       I didn't want to keep it on hold any longer.

       I agree.  Another winner.  I liked your story very much too
       David.  Administrative question--I love the dark backgrounds.
       Is there a way to add that icon at the top of pages too?
       Currently, I have to scroll to the end, click the D, and then
       scroll up to read.  Hardly a deal breaker, but if the coding
       isn't too difficult, that would be a great improvement.

       Kier, thanks for the kind word on my story.  Writing shorts is
       actually hard.  As far as the request to put the icon at the top
       of the page too, I will pass that on to Flag.  I am sure it is
       possible if he has time to do it.

       Flag's response:
       Hi David,
       I'm unlikely to change the layout. There's a reason those
       site-format
       icons are at the bottom - they are all changes that most users
       would set
       ONCE, probably from the index page or an author page if an
       author, and
       then browse the site in that mode for some time, so the idea
       that you'd
       continually need to scroll down to the bottom of a page,
       especially a
       story page with considerable length, to change the view is
       rather
       nonsensical. People would not normally change view randomly or
       frequently. Adding site-format icons to the top of the page as
       well, so
       MORE stuff that EVERYONE would need to scroll past to reach the
       start of
       a story, is a non-starter. In any case, stories should be
       readable in
       dark skin as easily as default skin, reducing the need to
       switch. If
       they aren't then I need to tweak the skin generally, or authors
       need to
       take care if they have added special formatting that only works
       well in
       the default skin.
       Feel free to copy the above in the relevant forum thread as an
       official
       response.

       I prefer to do almost all my web browsing in the "dark skins"
       mode, not just MMSA pages and stories.  In Microsoft Windows 10
       you can put your computer in that mode as follows:
       [quote=Microsoft]High Contrast improves readability of the
       display by applying a special system color scheme.  The keyboard
       shortcut to turn on High Contrast is to press the left SHIFT,
       left ALT, and the PRINT SCREEN (PrtScr) keys.[/quote]
       You do this once to invoke high contrast mode, and again if you
       ever want to leave it and return to normal mode.  The effect of
       this mode seems to me to be essentially the same as the effect
       you get at MMSA by using the "d" option at the bottom of the
       pages.  It also works on other Windows 10 compatible programs
       like Word or Excel.  They all become easier to read.
       And BTW, the "dark skins" mode at MMSA can be set globally at
       MMSA by using
  HTML https://malespank.net/MMSA_main.php?dark=yes
       as your main URL to enter MMSA.  The dark=yes part gets
       propagated down into all the links on that page, including the
       story lists and stories.  (I think Flag alludes to this fact in
       his explanation.)

       I changed the title to the thread because we seem to be
       discussing more than one of Mackenzie's stories.
       There is a new one out - posted late yesterday:
       "Fear and Reconciliation"
  HTML https://malespank.net/viewStory.php?id=48639
       The story is in no way WHASS and the author even provides a
       disclaimer warning that the story depicts scenes of abuse.  I
       found parts of the story to be very triggering.  The young man
       is being introduced to CP as part of a relationship but it keeps
       bringing up memories of childhood trauma.
       The story is short but intense.  It is well-written but,
       admittedly, not for everyone.  I would recommend at least giving
       it a try.

       Well, it doesn't matter.  Adric taught me how to globally change
       the entire browser to that format.  But for the record, I am
       unable to find a way to set it once and keep the changes for
       future viewings.

       "Can You Call It a Fight?"  4th "Micah" story
       Post by David M. Katz » 24 Jun 2021 16:39
  HTML https://malespank.net/viewStory.php?id=48821
       This is the fourth story about Micah and his relationship with
       Uncle Daniel. As a side note, each and every story can be read
       independently although I highly recommend the entire series.
       In this story our protagonist, Micah, gets into a fight at
       school (can you call it a fight) and is suspended. His Uncle
       Daniel spanks him for it. I hear you now, "That's not all that
       impressive."
       Ah, but not to spoil the story but the author deals beautifully
       for the reasons behind the non-fight, Micah's emotions and
       thoughts, and his inner feelings about his uncle. Furthermore we
       get to experience more when Micah and Uncle Daniel go to the
       victim's house so Micah can apologize.
       This story is emotionally intense and will strike at the heart
       of anyone who has ever had a deep personal secret.
