I've had that site booked marked for a while now, it does come in handy. I'm quite sure now that you've indirectly provided a link to the site, the Mods are going to close this thread

Or give you a warning.

well i like it

Well then what's your favorite keyboard then?

Actually, out of all the touchscreen keyboards (I know I shouldn't be saying this), but I still like the iphone keyboard the best!

I just think i like it more because the screen is bigger and easier to type on.

Well ): I'm REALLY trying to like TouchPal.
I see the potential so I'm trying to force myself to become used to it.

My BIG problems are the text prediction is sometimes CRAZY. I don't know what language "fastule" is but it made that mistake a few days ago.
With the Diamond compact QWERTY I'm able to combine two words to make one.
IMAP is I & MAP. Easy.
There is no quick way to do that or even enter a word that is not in the dictionary, the right side of my screen isn't that sensitive which makes matters worst.
IMAP is I swipe, M swipe, A swipe, P swipe. If my swiping is even a little off I get an uppercase wrong letter instead.

For quick one hand typing though, if the words are already "programmed", it's excellent.

Why do you swipe it instead of just pushing the letter? (because you want it all capatilized?)

Also, to program a word, all you have to do is just type the word correctly and then it will show up in red, then click the red word in the text prediction and wala! It's added to your dictionary

&& if it doesn't show up in red, just press the word you typed correctly to the very far left (in the text prediction) and it will still add it do your dictionary. It works great.

IMAP was an example.

I use the compact QWERTY keyboard so text must be entered precisely by swiping if it's not in the dictionary. The other option is to press and hold until the "choice menu" opens which takes even longer that swiping.

There are many words in my vocabulary that aren't in the dictionary therefore there's no way they would show red. I do know about that.
I believe anytime a word is precisely entered it's automatically entered into the dictionary.

ohhhh, now i seee. I wasn't understanding because i didn't know that you were using the compact QWERTY, instead of the full QWERTY keyboard.

I use the full one and it's extremely fast and accurate for me.
But i guess that's just me.

Is there a way to get touchpal to fill the bottom screen with bigger buttons in landscape? When I switch to landscape the keyboard is small and doesnt fill out the entire bottom half of my screen which makes it to small to type on. I'm using MrHawaii's pcm skin right now and its nice and big. Best one to me so far
