It sounds like you have an acrylic apple cinema display. Is the power button light on the monitor? (the white light in the lower right hand corner), and when you press it do you hear your computer go to sleep? If the light is not on and computer is on then it is a connection issue, if it is light, then it could be a problem with the backlight in your monitor, or it could be a problem with the graphics card in the computer.

Sorry for misunderstanding you, I thought you were criticizing my ideas without actually reading them. Well it looks like they just might be heading in that direction with Chrome out, and who knows what else is to come. Perhaps they could modify Google Desktop to be an all around interface for your google account (gmail, calendar, docs, etc...) instead of just a local search engine.

Oh, well this explains why my password all of a sudden stopped working in July. I figured my evil twin brother that we keep up in the attic changed the password again and I spent 10 credits to reset it via the manage page. Oh well, I've got plenty of credits. I didn't need those 10 credits anyway.

I can't say too much more that what has already been said, however I can add an image. Occasionally there is a perfect xkcd comic strip to match a topic here on Xisto, and on those times I like to share them with you. So without further adieu:

I got a similar message, however it wasn't sent to my email, it was sent to my Xisto PM inbox. It looks like someone is trying to exploit Xisto for spammy purposes...

Alright I\'ll be sure to report it as soon as I\'m done. Thanks haslip.

Sorry about this, one more test.edit: another test

This is not meant to be spam. This is a test thread I am creating to test a new creation of mine. By the time a mod reads this the test will be over and the thread can be deleted. Sorry for taking away time from whatever mod ends up deleting this thread.

Well I sure didn't know any of this thievery of credits was going on by RedAlert. I thought I'd send him this topic as a laugh about old times, posting on trap. Hmmmm. However, you certainly should not be following his example. I'm sure the moderators and admins will step up a bit now to make sure this can't happen anymore.

Ah yes, way back in November of 2005 when I was a brand new member and really didn't know much about anything, me and my friend decided that we could cheat the credit system by making the text the same color as the background. How sadly mistaken we were. I got a warn and he got a ban Ah so many good memories... If anyone wants to see this thread it is still available and open here... So yeah, learn from my mistakes and don't do what I did. After you start thinking of posting as fun you stop thinking of ways to devise the system.

Just because symbols look a bit more confusing than numbers don't always mean that they are the most secure. However, if you are trying to be secure against a dictionary attack it might be better, but then so would any password that has more than lowercase letters. As for a brute force attack, most methods try symbols last just because they are less likely to be in the password, but then it depends on the brute force method you are doing and what you have set. For example if somebody knew that the password was all symbols it would greatly increase the ease of getting your password using brute force. Think of it this way. If A is the number of possible different characters your password could be made up of, and B is how long your password is the worst case senario for a brute force attack would be AB. If you change your password from letters to symbols you are only adding about 15 to A, however, every new character you add to your password would add 1 to B. Therefore if you start adding new characters to your password it will start taking longer and longer for a computer to generate that password. Also, take a look what rvalkass said here:

Well yes, the credit system is OpaQue's baby, and as far as I know nobody but OpaQue himself has seen the source code for it... I'm sure there are many other similar extensions for IPB that you can use to achieve a basic "credit system", however I have yet to see one as complex as this one.

I think the reason some people are compelled to commit suicide especially in public places is because they want to prove a point. Something or somebody makes them sad, or mad, or depressed and they think "I'll show them, I'll show the world for making my life hard", but what they don't realize is that once they commit suicide they won't be there to see the outcome. They won't be there to see what they want to have happen: everyone grieving around their mangled body, regretting what happened. They don't realize that after they take their own life what happens after that doesn't really matter much because they are dead. Gone forever, and never to return.

Unless you are using vmware or something to run the two operating systems side by side, it won't slow down the computer at all. You are just reading different partitions on the harddrive. Imagine an opperating system is a book. Now you wouldn't be able to read two books at the same time two fast, but if you could choose one book to read and only one at a time, you would be able to read it very efficiently.

No need to ask, I just whipped one up for you right now. You can either use it as it is or use it as an example on how to make one yourself. This code is not a complete page, just the portion that displays the submit button and fields, that way you are able to insert it into any page you want with a simple copy and paste: <? //enter recipient's email address. If multiple recipients, separate with comma:$to="someemail@yourdomain.com";if(isset($_POST['email'])){if(ereg("^[^@]{1,64}@[^@]{1,200}\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}$",$_POST['email'])){mail($to,$_POST['subject'],$_POST['message'],"From: ".$_POST['email']);echo'<font color="green">Your message was sent</font>';}else echo'<font color="red">"'.$_POST['email'].'" is not a valid email address.</font>';}?><form action="" method="post"><table><tr><td>Your Email:</td><td><input name="email"></td></tr><tr><td>Subject:</td><td><input name="subject"></td></tr></table>Message:<br><textarea rows="8" cols="50" name="message"></textarea><br><input type="submit" value="send"></form>

Hello there sky, welcome to Xisto. It looks like you've already started to make this place a home for yourself, congratulations! I do hope you enjoy your stay here. The community and contribution to this forum is just amazing, and I'm sure you will make a great addition to it. Ah yes, IceAge. I haven't seen one of his posts in a while, but I suppose he is just posting in areas of the forum I don't visit often. Except for the part where you are most definitely not fine for "shooting a moderator"

Hmm, well I know there is a way of using mailto to open the user's default email client and filling the fields out for them automatically, and there might be a javascript equivalent to that, however the user must still click on the send button manually to be able to send the message. If javascript alone could send messages it would need to use an email from the user's computer, because javascript alone couldn't contact a server and command it to do something without some server side language sitting there accepting javascript's pleas. So unless javascript is hiding some virtual server in its pocket, I don't think javascript alone could do anything like this.

Have you ever posted your gmail address on the internet anywhere, or used it to apply for a website that doesn't look too legitimate? There are spiders that crawl up websites looking for email addresses so any time you post your email in the clear anywhere on the internet you can pretty much bet that you will start to get tons of spam within the next week. Certain websites sell your information when you give them your email to others who use it to send you advertisements. I don't get any spam at all to my gmail account because I am very careful to only people I know personally, and websites of large companies such as ebay, paypal, etc... that I know will keep my information private. One great way to fight spam but at the same time receive emails from people you don't want to give your email to is by making aliases. Create a temporary email address that forwards to your primary one, and give out only the temporary one to people and businesses that you don't feel are very trustworthy. Then when you start getting massive amounts of spam being forwarded to that email address, stop the forwarding, delete the email address and create a new one with a different address. Yes the solution is a bit of work, however it allows you to keep your primary email free of spam and unchanged so you don't need to continuously email everyone in your addressbook that you have a new address due to spam.

You didn't read what I said there at all. I said the idea of sub-labels was a bad idea. However, I wanted to be able to group labels. You wouldn't be able to put any messages in the group, however, the group can collapse to hide those specific labels. I have a ton of labels that represent other emails that are automatically forwarded to my gmail, so many that I don't want to see them in my labels box anymore, I just want to be able to collapse them all under one general group so I can only see the important labels. Once again, another example of you not reading my words carefully enough. The reason I want something like this is because I want to be able to use gmail with multiple machines without worrying about inconsistencies in my email. I am talking about creating an application that talks to gmail directly. Just a frontend UI that supports dragging and dropping and completely customizing the interface. Yes, of course themes would have to be customizable. The simple theme would always be the default, however it would be great if they gave us the option. But of course themes are the least important suggestion in my list there. I would like to see some of the other ideas come to life first.

Ah, yes, the good old Da Vinci Code. I remember reading this book, and yes it had an excellent story that kept me hooked throughout the entire book. And of course the storyline is fiction, but what about the rest of it? Dan Brown did include that mysterious facts page at the beginning of the book, stating that all artwork documents, secret rituals etc... depicted in the novel are all accurate, however it does not mention to what extent. It is an interesting topic, so interesting that a tv show devoted to revealing what was fact or fiction in the Da Vinci Code was made. According to the show, the Priory of Sion and Opus Dei do exist, however they are much different than they are depicted in the novel. Anyway that's enough mystery in one post for me. Before I sign off I'd like to recommend two other books by Dan Brown. Both have the exact same style as the Da Vinci Code, and same twists and turns. By the third Dan Brown book I read I was able to accurately predict what was going to happen just because I started to learn his style of being what you'd least expect... Confusing, I know. Anyway the first is Deception Point. It is an amazing story that isn't nearly as controversial for religious groups as it is to NASA and the government. The other is Angels and Demons, the prequel to Da Vinci Code, which is in my opinion the best book Dan Brown has ever written.

No webmail service or any mail client supports the iframe tag. I have never seen an iFrame in an email, and I'm glad that I haven't. The ability to insert iFrames into emails can lead to major security risks for the recipients email account, and it also completely defeats the point of an email. An email isn't an html page. It is a message, and yes I know you are able to insert basic HTML into emails such as images and tables, but that's just to make the email more stylish. You should technically never be able to add frames, javascript, or other advanced html into emails. If you are familiar with making dynamic images rendered by a server you can use that if there is some dynamic content you wish to put in an email, or you could place a link to the page you wanted to frame in your email, but other than that I can think of no other solution to your problem.

According to your post when you applied for your hosting your username is 't0od0pe4u'. Now unless you changed that between then and now it should still be that. I understand that you have tried this username and still no luck and you have recently reset your password, and I understand if you feel frustrated, believe me, if I was in your position I would feel frustrated as well, however I can assure you that one of the administrators of Xisto will resolve this issue for you. Just hang in there.

I use Gmail as my primary email address and I love it. The space it has, all of the services it offers, and the new ways that it is changing the way we all look at webmail, however after using it for years I have found that there are some really major things that it is lacking that would easily make it the best webmail service possible. I am going to list and describe these features below, and I encourage other members to list features that they really think would make great additions to Gmail. Now I know there is already this topic which is very similar however, I wanted to start out a new topic on a different note: More recent, and one that didn't just copy and paste suggestions from another website. I would also like to provide This link: (https://support.google.com/mail/...) to Google's official suggestion page for Gmail, and I would like to ask members and visitors to this website who are reading this post to suggest the features that they like below. Let Google know exactly what we want from it. Anyway, on with the suggestions: 1. Labels on the individual messages. When you have over 15 labels on your gmail account it is quite annoying to label something with that "More Actions..." menu, especially if the label is one of the last ones. You have to scroll all the way down, and if you want to label the same message with more than one label, it makes it even more difficult, and the fact that to unlabel a message you must scroll all the way down to the bottom and select "Remove label ..." is even more cumbersome. This is why I suggest a new way of labeling messages. On every message, to the right of the label badges, and left of the subject, place a small button named "Add Label". Clicking on this button would bring down a drop down menu with all of your labels on it, and when you choose a label, the menu doesn't go away, it just checks that label and leaves you free to check or uncheck more labels. Doing this will not only make labeling and unlabeling messages, but it would also clear out that awful More Actions menu to only obscure actions such as mark as read, etc... 2. Grouping of labels Now I have heard many suggestions like the ability to make sub labels, however that doesn't quite fit in the theme of labeling things. Creating sub labels would make labels a bit more like folders, however if you were able to group certain labels and collapse those groups (for example I have 4 different labels based on different aspects of my job), it would make organization much easier. 3. A Gmail email cliant for your computer The point of webmail is to be able to access your email on the go. Before Gmail I was always using an email client to access my email, however when switching over to Gmail, I loved the fact that email wasn't being downloaded to my computer, therefore risking different emails on different computers so I started using the webmail. Now I know IMAP syncs with the server so you are not left with this problem when downloading your email on multiple computers, however as far as I know, there are no email cliants that use labels instead of folders, and sync directly with Gmail to be always up to date. It would be great if google created a client for all platforms that basically is an application version of Gmail. It would always access the server and get the information from there but the user interface is all generated by the application, not smoe fancy javascript and css. It would give you the flexibility of an application, with the amazing service and features of gmail. Now what would make this app even cooler is if it could take your contacts, calendars, and documents from Google and sync it with your computer so you could always stay in sync on your primary computer, however you would be able to access all of your files on the go using Google's web interfaces. 4. Skinning Gmail Now I know changing the way something looks isn't very important however I recently switched my primary browser from safari to firefox just because I saw and fell in love with the Gmail Redesigned 2.0 addon theme for Gmail. Ever since switching, when I log into gmail on a public computer I miss my theme. It would be great if you were able to theme Gmail and attach that theme to your account just like you can with your personalized homepage. Below I have included an image of the theme I am talking about:

You could technically create one of these in PHP, or any other backed programming language. The way that they work is they access the website you want themselves and forward the data to you. This way the server they are accessing his the IP address of your proxy server and not yours. However, since the website data needs to go through two servers before it reaches your computer using a web proxy would significantly increase the loading time. There really is no point to using one unless you are trying to access a website that you are IP banned from or for some reason the website has a different output based on your IP and you are not satisfied with the output it provides with your IP, and even then those could be easily done if you have a dynamic IP address.
