Astahost's New Look... The forums new look...
Nybb replied to Tobias's topic in Websites and Web Designing
I'm very sorry to hear that. Hopefully, OpaQue's all right. But on a brighter note, the layout is actually really done well, for a layout that uses no images. I'm quite impressed actually. -
Review For Gamespy Hosting Is great.. for a crappy videogame shrine
Nybb replied to Nybb's topic in General Discussion
On the contrary, the bandwidth is quite a realistic amount. But the problem I have with this FAQ is that it sounds too easy and makes people think that they can get hosting, no sweat. It's actually more harder than making 5,000 perfect posts on Xisto than to get hosting on this network. At least here, you get no ads and can badger your visitors for Paypal donations and flood them with Adsense. -
Introduction To Copyright Protection What is...Copyright protection?
Nybb replied to rejected's topic in General Discussion
Your question has been answered. This includes background music on recordings. I find it interesting that everything has to be on paper. To me, that means words don't matter; if you wrote it you have a documented contract that can be shoved to your face. My mom uses this method when making deals with me... -
Secret Behind Your Nick/User Names Where did they come from?
Nybb replied to szupie's topic in Introductions
In the Jimmy Neutron movie on Nickelodeon, there were these worms from another planet that kept saying the word, "Nybb." You know when things are said repeatedly, they get stuck in your head. So I registered with this username account and I am quite fond of it. -
The Most Pathetic Web Sites On The Internet Awards
Nybb replied to iGuest's topic in Websites and Web Designing
I've been to many sites and I find a lot of sad, stupid and appallingly phony ones. Here's my list: http://www.yuku.com - The most appalling message board host on the face of the earth. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ - Forums infested with board trolls. http://www.something.com/ - waste of a domain. I think it's gone now. All that was on it is "Something." http://www.zombo.com/ - Quite fun actually. -
Best Way To Promote A Website?
Nybb replied to rhodesian.dragon's topic in Websites and Web Designing
So, you want to promote your site without paying, eh? Here's how: 1. Go to the GAIA forums: http://www.gaiaonline.com/ 2. Put a link to your site in your sig. 3. Start a lot of meaningful topics. GAIA Online is the world's largest forum. Prepare to lose bandwidth... -
I wasn't mentioning about his credits, my point was that Xisto isn't that bad compared to other people. When Rodneylay mentioned the answer, "too f%$$ing bad. CASE CLOSED!" I found that strangely similar to the appalling things I've heard in ezboard.Ezboard had given the answer of "too f%$$ing bad. CASE CLOSED!" to their members and brought everyone into the idea of "them and us."You won't find that here in Xisto...

One of the things rodneylay mentioned but everyone was trying to avoid and look past was: In my opinion, this is a justified and legitimate view. It doesn't just apply to Xisto only, I see this kind of crap everywhere, even in really big companies like ezboard dot com. Here's what some people had to say about ezboard: And not only that, an ezboard Moderator once refused restoral upon Survivor Sucks because of what someone said. Xisto is not so bad, compared to what I've seen... http://www.yuku.com/

Who Is Your Favorite Game Character? Please give details of why.
Nybb replied to iGuest's topic in Computer Gaming
In my opinion, Final Fantasy X is the crappiest Final Fantasy game on the face of the Earth. FFX is solely based on graphics, there isn't a lot of actual gameplay. In addition, there are too many characters in FFX - you can't use them all at the same time. And nodes? I still don't understand how it works. Tidus is a Jesse McCartney wannabe... -
Who Is Your Favorite Game Character? Please give details of why.
Nybb replied to iGuest's topic in Computer Gaming
I find it funny how Square-Enix tried to sexify Yuna in FFX-2. In FFX, Yuna was just girly-cute and in FFX-2, she's hot. It's funny how people all like the girls in videogames. Me, I like Eva from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. She, well.. appeals to the goggling eyes. -
Needing Some Help With Gaming games freezing when trying to play
Nybb replied to JRobs13's topic in Computer Gaming
It's your crappy computer, most likely. Newer computers rarely lock up during online gameplay. I suggest getting a new computer.Some games lock up on PS2. It happens more often on the older PS2 consoles than newer PS2s. This is why you never should buy consoles when they first come out; wait until they update it. -
From: classicgaming dot com Seems easy, right? WRONG! First of all, you can't run a game site, you run a game shrine which means your site has to be dedicated to a videogame. Content just got flushed down the toilet. And your site has to look professional. And by professional, it needs to look like it was done by a professional web designer. You have to make an appointment with a hotshot in http://www.dotster.com/dotster/sites/fortune-city.bml and pay them hundreds of dollars. In the end, you end up with a crappy fan shrine, losing hundreds of dollars on appointments, and selling your soul to update your site every day. And they're benefiting from the revenue of the feisty banners they force to put. You do get a site, but you can't write about anything besides a single videogame. In conclusion, I find that the best way to go in free hosting is Xisto. At least you can write about what you want on your site, given that you post in the forums once every two days.

Astahost's New Look... The forums new look...
Nybb replied to Tobias's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Go to My Controls. There, under Personal Profile, you will find Edit Signature and Edit Avatar. For your Avatar, save the picture into My Pictures under My Documents. Then upload that picture in Edit Avatar. But for a Signature, you need an image host. Make your own sig (you will find a tutorial here) and save it in My Pictures. Go to http://www.imageshack.us/ and upload your picture there. Copy the URL for your image and past it in Edit Signature. Hope that'll help. On-topic: One thing I've noticed about the layout is that it has no images. If you want to use an image hosted by this board, you can upload them as Pips. Find the URLs of your images and use them as your layout. It works for invisionfree (trust me, I've tried it) and I'm sure it'll work for invisionboard. -
Introduction To Copyright Protection What is...Copyright protection?
Nybb replied to rejected's topic in General Discussion
Actually, a copyrighted work lasts 70 years after the author's death. By 70 years, the copyrighted work becomes public domain, free to use as is. No, it's $30 as of now. Mail your work with $30 to the Library of Congress and they'll make your work copyrighted. In fact, if your copyrighted work got stolen, you could sue. It's called "ripping." Honestly, some people who don't feel like copyrighting their work just slaps down a phony copyright just so people will think twice before doing anything. They're all lies, LIES!! Well, at least most of them are. Their works are public domain, which means you can use them, provided you give them credit. If it's by the works of the old, dead composers (Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, etc.) it isn't illegal because it's public domain. (That's why you hear a lot of classical music in movies, IS FREE!) But if it's from a punk rock band (much of which you can find on the radio), you have to bribe them by shoving stacks of cash onto their faces and they'll write on paper that you can use their music for your work. I hope my information has helped mend the confusion. If not, visit http://www.copyright.gov/
