OK, I'm gonna lob up a big ol' softball to anyone who wants to enlighten me by answering a question that I should already know the answer to. 

When entering contribution notes, how do I format the note so that the comments don't continue until the end of the line and then wrap on to the next line like this?

When I want
them to look
more like this?

The [enter] or [return] key doesn't seem to do the trick as it does here in the forum.

So what's the trick?

Didn't try it lately, but if I recall correctly it's the combination of "Shift + Return" (as in some M$-Office applications).

And there really is no such thing as a dumb question, there's only one question that's better not asked (again), this is concerning our beloved DVDProfiler and it's abilities to profile CDs, PC-Games, or any other collectible.
So as long as you keep away from this question, you'll always find someone to give you an (more or less helpful) answer.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

I have no problem entering Carriage Return/Linefeeds in contribution notes.

What happens when you press the Enter key?  Anything?  Mine goes to the start of the next line.

You could also try entering them in a text editor/word processor then copying them into the contribution block and see if you get different results.
Bad movie?  You're soaking in it!

My experience has been the same as tweeter's.

Edit: Oh, wait.  Are you talking about how they look when you click the title in your list of contributed profiles?  You can't.  It always displays that way.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.

We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

Ahhh, that.

If that is the problem Jammer click the "page" icon to the left of the UPC number on your contributions page to see the notes formatted civilly.

Sorry for the confusing post.  Unicus nailed it, but here's what I was trying to explain:

When I type my contribution notes, it looks like this:



But then after it's received, it looks like this:



meanwhile, the contribution notes from others look like this:





As a test, I submitted this contribution a second time so as to see how the notes from my original contribution would appear.  This (below) is the look I was going for.





I understand now.  Thanks all for your help and again, sorry for the confusion.

So what's this I hear about a version of Profiler that will catalog CD's, video games, and my baseball card collection?
