Seeing that i could not get firefox to work anymore and there is no fix as yet(check my post about my problem about firefox).I installed opera for the first time.
1-I suck at spelling sometimes,But the spell checker i do have is aspell and i installed the dic.But the spell checker sucks as it does not give me all the words listed for correct spelling.
2-There is this weird words on top of one another on all sites including this one,the effect it fives is like writing 6 words on top of each other making it hard to read,what is the fix for this,other than that opera looks good.I will post a link to how it looks with this weird black lines.

It looks like you have turned off images.
1. Click the view icon in the top-right corner (looks like a pair of glasses)
2. Make sure that it is NOT set to "No images". Should be set to "Show images" to work correctly.

That is the only way I could replicate your screenie.
 
my images are turned of due to the internet conection i have.3g sometimes most its gprs and not loading pics makes beowsing faster,Other than that is there no way to fix this without enable pics.
 
Even if I turn off images completely it doesn't look that bad... Sorry can't help, definitely something wrong there but mine is and always has been fine...
 
Ja, that's the only thing that would make sense, even though I have never seen anything like that before on my own Opera.

btw, try out the 9.5 alpha release, it's looking good. http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/

Haha, I also enjoyed the spell checker during my time with FF, but I don't bother with Aspell on Opera, having to right click makes it too much of a las and it's not that good either. Hoping for an in-line spell checker with Opera 10 or maybe even 9.5 even though I don't see it coming. The built in IRC, email and bittorrent client is great though. :)

EDIT: A short term solution for MyADSL or other sites you frequent is to just load the common board images once and then use cached images and it will load just as fast with all the images.

That is due to images being turned off. The alt text is showing and it uses up a lot more space than each image would.
