    Anyone have a good reason why you can use a hyphen but not an underscore to name your channels and colour formats? Do you think it is an SEO issue?

    Probably as simple as they just don't allow it for not other reason than they had to pick specific characters that are allowed. If an underscore was allowed, then you might be asking why you can't use a pipe or something. :)

    Domains don't allow underscores either BTW...

    ahhhh, yes.... nice to have Shawn back and as cutting as ever. I want to use a pipe, now that you say that. I just found it wierd to eliminate the underscore character.
