Dave, why is it easier to use triangles? Do the arcs cause some problems? Actually I like the triangular look as it is more distinctive than a round pad. > From: Abd ul-Rahman Lomax > Others have given some interesting answers, but I look at the > question and wonder why Mr. Smith wants a "single" pad? > What is a single pad? Abd, I guess I should clarify that we wanted it to "look" like a single pad, which two square or rectangular pads would give you but two round pads would not.
