Okay, I've had experience with both windows and macintosh, and I prefer WINDOWS! You have a lot more control over your computer with Windows and its really easy to use. I have yet to find any apple/mac product that could perform a task as well as windows can. The only thing I like about iTunes is that you can play almost ANY file and in Windows Media Player they are very picky and won't play anything unless it's top quality. Which I guess is a good thing. Plus, I believe that the look of Windows is much better than mac. Yeah, the buttons are round, wooooooooo, who care!?! They're hard as yet to use!!! I support Microsoft/Windows completely! I honestly believe that if you switch over to mac from windows, you will be extremely dissapointed. If you're really concerned about the outcome though, ask a professional. I wish the best of luck to you!

I love Yuna off of Final Fantasy X and X-2. She is so awesome. I've nevver really played the game personally, I don't own a ps2, so i watched a friend of mine play it. The only games I've ever played for real would have to be lion king and paper boy on sega genis (spelling?). Yeah, that's a WAY back isn't it!?! I currently have an XBOX, but I've played it maybe twice in the past two years and I believe it was harry potter and the chamber of secrets and quidditch world cup. So yeah, I don't get to play video games very often and when I do, it's not the most exciting game in the world. But still, Yuna rocks. I'm really in love with Final fantasy and Kingdom Hearts at the moment. I WANT a PS3 soooo bad.

Honestly, I'm the type of website designer who likes to create their layouts from scratch. I like plain coding. I don't enjoy programs that give me a template and let me put together the webpage as it's a word document like frontpage. I do however enjoy the program Hotdog, It lets me see my website as I'm typing in the code. So if I forget something stupid like a letter here and there, I can tell real fast. But with Hotdog I work with the code and the code only, so I really enjoy. And it has a script library incase I forgot something. I usually use notepad 2 for my programming though, cause I recently switched to php. I'm the same way when I make graphics. I like to cut them up in paint, blow them up and edit them in psp7, put them all back together in paint, and then convert the bmp file to a gif file using another graphics file that makes it real easy to do. I go through several steps and several programs. I use gifworks to add transparency, and I use gif animator 1.0 for animations. I know, I can all these things in one graphics program, perferably PSP7, but I tend to have less problems when I use all these different programs. What!?! I'm special. *smiles* Plus I haven't worked with PSP7 much so I don't know how to do ANYTHING! LoL! Maybe that's the same reason I don't use web designers, I'm not really sure how to do them, and it's easier just to type in the code. Wow, what an excuse.

It's not that I don't like Linkin Park, its just that I'm not a big fan of Jay Z. Plus I love Eminem. I adore the song Numb sooo much that it irratates me that they messed with me. You don't mess with a Linkin Park song. It's not right. Therefore, I cannot possibly vote for it, but I must vote against it. Sorry, but I felt that I had to explain myself. Besides, Just Lose it is a funny music video, and I think its funny that you can vote more than once. hehehe, I'm getting evil here. Happy voting to all of those who are patient enough to let the site load and then vote.

If you just need a forum for your site, then I would use proboards or invisionboards or something of the sort. These are forum host and they allow you to create and edit your own forum. You can add the link to your site or put it in a frame or something so that it looks as if it is still on your site and not on the forum hosting site. That's a cheap way to do it, and isn't very effective but hey. The forum work well though I was using proboards for a little while. It was running pretty well. I only had about 20 members though so if you have a couple hundred to a thousand I don't know if it would start charging fees aor it would run worse than it did for me. I dunno, I haven't really played around much with forum board host. However, if you are trying to make a forum board from scratch, good luck to you. I don't know how to do that either but I am still attempting to learn. Just like I am attempting to learn php (LoL, I've only read the introduction). Good luck to you though. I'm sure their is a good tutorial out there. Do a yahoo search on it. ::NOT GOOGLE::

I dunno, I don't pay too much attention to the look of the forum, just the post. I always click on the View New Post section anyway so I guess nothing really bothers me. I'm a blue fan, so I guess I kind of enjoy it. But I must say, it has this flat blocky look to it. Kind of like you're looking at a piece of paper. I'm a fan of curves and shadows and highlights. I like lots of detail. hehe. I thought that when I got on today it looked different, but I wasn't sure because I haven't been on for about 6 days now. The font still looks the same, which is a plus because I really enjoy the font. Like I said, the color scheme is pretty. I'm not too picky of a person though, so you all are probably picking out every problem and I'm just like, okay, sure. But I always think that their is room for improvement. So Xisto, do as you may and do as you must. <~ Wow, that was corny sounding.

Okay, grrrrrrrrrrr! GTA:SA only had the scene that got it the AO rating from an illegal download. So you had to download that clip illegally to even make it AO. I swear, if he messes with the Sims 2, I'll go off. The Sims 2 is my baby, I love playing that game and you could download the same type of skins with the Sims. Tim has worked so hard to make it a T rating. The whole crew was just trying to make sure that the players had fun with it, but they didn't want to add unessacary detail like what Jack is flipping out over. If you download the skins, its your problem, and the sites that contain these downloads should have an AO rating on them so that teens know what they are getting into. Most download sites have you register now so that they know your age, and they filter out all the AO stuff so you don't even know its there. Therefore, you don't know what you are missing out on. I honestly think that this is a good idea. This still pisses me off though. This reminds me of accusationg on Harry Potter, saying that the whole book had words in it refering to drugs. The only people who can find such things in books and games made for children and teenagers should pull their minds out of the gutter. I don't think that anything is safe as long as these perverts are out there. Next thing you know, they're going to say soemthing about Blue Clue's and Dora the Explorer. I understand that people make stupid little cartoons or innocent kid show characters and turn it into something perverted, but these are not to be blamed on the creators of the show. The same should go for games. If it doesn't come with the game, then the game should not be held responsible. The only person who should be punished, if any, is the one providing the download. I'm with you all, Jack Tompson is a complete idiot. The Sims 2 is far from being a porn offering.

Honestly, I would check your post number. Once it says 30 post, you can probably get the upgrade. But honestly I wouldn't worry about the upgrade until you need it. You can always upgrade you know. Also, please keep in mind that your post should be of decent link. A sentence or two per post is not going to get you the upgrade. Make sure that when you post you're actually saying something. moonwitch brought this to many member's attention when members were getting rejected because they had cruddy post. Honestly, if you feel the need, rant. You can always post a decent post if you understand the topic and can explain yourself a little better. I honestly hope this helps. Also, if you set this weird goal like I do, and say to yourself "I'm going to try to keep my days to 15 so that I don't have to panic if I miss a day, or a week or something" then before you know it, you'll be able to get the upgrade. Just make sure that you have a comfortable amount of post before you ask for the upgrade. Good luck to you and if you have any questions, just pm me okay?

Personally, I think that light colors are too bright for a computer screen. I like black backgrounds because I believe it gives your eyes a rest. I usually have blue, purple, or pink graphics/text, depends on the topic and the look that I am going for at the moment. For instance, my Hogwarts site is black, purple, and gold, while my dairy is black, blue, purple, and silver. My neopets guild site on the other hand, is black and maroon. So yeah, I'm a huge black background fan. I approve of dark colors. However I am not sayiong that light colors are a bad choice. They don't bother me during the daytime, although thats when I usually sleep so staring at a white screen at 2 in the morning is not very appealing to me. LoL!

20 years, wow, not too much time for improvement but enough for some drastic effect to occur. I dont believe that all wars are pointless, but I think nuclear bombs are for pansies. If you want to fight a war, then FIGHT it, dont throw things around and kill innocent people/children. I think that everything will be portable, and I believe that people will still fail to notice that our ozone is decomposing (basically), that our rainforest are dying from our obsession with lumber, and that endangered animals that probably have a purpose in scientific discoveries yet to come will become extinct because nobody understands their importance. 20 years from now is just another 20 years for man to destroy this planet even more. Have you ever noticed that man is the only animal that has to adapt this drastically to be able to survive on earth? I'm beginning to think that man is the least intelligent species because or WHAT we've done to this earth. deers dont pollute the air and birds dont kill trees. Sorrie, I must sound like a "Save the Whales" person right now but, these things get to me. I'm not saying that the world will be destroyed, just that I think we'll improve, just the environment itself won't. If that makes any sense.

I think its brillant. I love pointless sites like that. I enjoy visiting things that people work that hard on. I think I need to start bookmarking these sites because I think that they are funny. I have visited the most annoying webpage too. I has I believe 150 pop ups, but its really funny when you go there and you have a pop-up blocker and you automatically go to the second and last page of the site. Someone must have been really bored, devoted, and patient. Who ever created this site has reason to be proud of themselves. I know I would be. Heck, just getting a site up without borken links makes me proud. I agree with some of you though, it is a little hard on the eyes. And if you've been staring at the computer screen for a couple of hours, it might make it almost impossible to read. But I honestly think that the text is the biggest part of the website. Hey, i am honestly curious as to how much space their website takes up. Wouldn't be amusing if it was some huge file because they had to make it so small.

Well, you're hateful now aren't you. I think its amazing how many people look at this post and think, wow, here's an easy way to get hosting credits. You go on about anything. Of course, the only thing I can tell you is that your computer must be pretty old so its really slow, or your just not very good with computers. If the first condition is your excuse, then the only solution is MONEY. Buy yourself a new pc, you can get good pcs for less than $800 right now. GO DELL! If the second condition is your excuse then practice makes perfect. Use the internet more often and you'll get used to it and it won't be so bad. Also, I would appreciate it if you would not insult the only thing my life revolves around. School and work are boring, so this is my heaven when I come home. I am also a comfortable member of Xisto, which I love with a passion because they are the best hosting service I have ever used, and I adore neopets with an even bigger passion. Because I've been on since december of '99 so . . . I've seen their amazing achievements. I love my internet, and I pray that it never fails me like it has obviously done for you. My deepest apologies for your discomfort.

Its beautiful but I can tell you right now I'd drop it. No matter how careful I am. You should see my cell phone. I buy cheap cell phones for a reason now. LoL! Its pretty coll though. No doubt, my Dad will waste his entire paycheck on it the second he sees it. Grrr! Is it wrong that I'm more of a desktop person? I'd rather have my computer with me tower, keyboard, mouse, and old flat screen moniter than have a laptop or this portable pc. Honestly, I'm not sure, but it looks smaller than a psp. I kind of enjoy my computer being in one spot and one spot only. Even when I'm tired and want to lay down while I'm on the computer. Something rubs me the wrong way when I think about my main computer following me everywhere I go. But, I will admit, that I have wanted a laptop for the road. Just to work on my website when I have long road trips. But if I ever got a laptop I'd still have to have a desktop. Just to assure me that I could always find one of my computers! LoL! I misplace everything.

There used to be this site where is you refered so many people, you got a free domain name of your choice for a year. I was considering it. You sign up, then advertise with your special link, then once 50 people sign up through your special link, you get a free domain for a year. If you want to keep it though, you have to get 25 sign ups through your link within your year, and you get a year added on and so on. But if you ask me, 50 sign ups would take FOREVER, and it would probably just be easier to pay 7.99 a year for a domain name through godaddy. Thats the only thing I can think of that was free. If I were you I'd just go for a short sub-domain, but make sure it has good service.

Honestly if I were ever to get a domain name I would defiantly choose godaddy. I have been looking at domains for 3 years and I have heard the best results from those who choose godaddy. Plus I think they're really cheap and reliable. So I guess you could say I'm a godaddy fan. Honestly I've never heard of registerfly, maybe I should go check it out.

I have yet to play double dash, but I still play the old mario kart with my friends. I kick bum on that game. I usually play baby mario and baby lugi because I like there special being the dog thingy. Thats won me races before. I also like the part one where you go around a gameboard type thing. I can't remember the name of it sorrie. But I wouldn't dis N64, thats what I grew up with atfer my genis sega went out on me. ::btw, if you ever beat the lion king game on sega genis please inform how you got past the lava level after the pit that you can't get out of, how were you suppose to get to scar or whatever!?!::

NOOOOOO! PS3!!!!!!!! I am a playstation fan! Even though I own an xbox and not a playstation 2. I know, very sad. But playstation has a lot more, and a lot better games than xbox. Yes, I understand that xbox has better graphics but I have more difficulty with an xbox controler than I do with a playstation 2 controler. Maybe its because I don't want to see playstation fall to xbox. Oh, and the ps3 looks so much neater than xbox 360. AND WHAT KIND OF A NAME IS XBOX 360!?!?! LoL just kidding! It looks more high tech and more futuristic or whatever you want to call it. PLUS, the controller is bluetooth! woot woot! I dunno, I think that ps3 might be one step ahead of xbox 360 and som epeople just don't know it yet! I'm really excited and I can't wait for its release. I have a job now and I can get it as soon as it comes out. And I hope that they are going to do the same thing they did with ps2 and make it to where you can play ps, ps2, and ps3 games on a ps3. Although I might be wrong, it would still be really cool. Cause I need to finish my final fantasy games. OH! And for those of you who haven't heard, I have been informed that xbox is trading ps halo for final fantasy. So now we can't say that xbox is awesome because it has halo and we can't say that ps2 is awesome because it has final fantasy. What a bummer huh? But, on the upside, you won't have to buy two different consoles just to play the two best games EVER! Okay, I'll leave it at this. PS3!!!

Don't worry about going over the limit because you can't. It won't allow you to do so. I highly doubt that your going to be posting on the forumn and one of the mods or admins are going to stop you to tell you that your siggy is too big. So I wouldn't worry about it. I was going to mention the avatar thing, but it looks like someone has already beat me to it. Well, I'm happy that you've already been posting on the forumns but I would like you to keep in mind that the admins and mods get annoyed with post that are only a sentence long or only a line or so. I'm sure you read that post, why they're not accepting so of the request for webpages. Although, I'm afraid that they might attack me for my post because I have a lot of run on sentences. LoL! I hope you enjoy Xisto, its really a great place it just has some slow members who get manage to get their site up because they've decided to learn a new language! LoL! *looks around* Now would could that be!?!

Scum of the earth!?!?!?!?!?!?! Then why is yahoo the BEST search engine on the internet!?! Yahoo has a LOT of material that they are hosting, so you must remember that their ads are for the companies that support them. They got to earn money some way or another. Google, if they try to expand so that they can compete with yahoo, will end up with ads. If yahoo's offer won wikimedia, then they deserve it. I personally hate google. I've had a bad history with them. Plu whenever I've created a website in the past, my page will appear on yahoo before it does on google, and I'll submit my page to BOTH search engines. Also google doesn't delete ANYTHING! They save all of their users old e-mails, and they keeps searchs that your IP address has done in the past. Did you all miss that huge thread on "The bad side of google" And yes, there is a lot of going on on the front page, but when you actually use the search engine, there are no ads on your search results pages. The only thing on there is in a shaded box that tells you "amazon can give you further information" and sometimes that's the better way to find out more about what you wanted to know. Wow, I wonder if my explanation made any sense at all. It does to me, but I also know what I am talking about and I'm afraid someone's going to read it and go . . . huh!?! Oh well, if it doesn't make sense the first time then I guess try and read it again. Switch to yahoo!

Okay, this is very simple. There is a better search engine than google. This search engine would just happen to be yahoo! I'm terribly sorry to all those who disagree but if you look at the results yahoo is so much better! I'll admit, when google first came out, it was the best. But yahoo! has improved itself so much that it is now the best search engine out there. Even the image search is better than google's. When you search google, you're likely to get copies in your results, but this doesn't happen as often when you use yahoo! Honestly the only time I've seen this happen on yahoo is when more than one website has the EXACT same thing (and I'm only talking about images here). I've never seen a copy of a site when I've used yahoo, unless I do a new search and I only change a word or two. So again, yes, there is a better search engine out there, and it is yahoo! and google will never take over the world. And if it does, I will dedicate my life to destroying the WHOLE company, but that is only if it rules the world. ::That is my job!!! muwahahahahahahaha!:: Until then, I shall return to my evil plotting so that I can one day rule you all! *evil laughter*

okay, im sorry to say this, but im a striict yahoo! user. I refuse to use any other search engine including google. Go Yahoo! I have started an organization against google *points to siggy* which has one member ::guess who:: and is trying to make yahoo number one! okay, sorry, i understand that this is an alta vista board but i think that you get so much more out of yahoo when you do se4arches there. come on now, i dont understand why google is so popular when yahoo is so much more satisfying with your results. I'm sure alta vista gets you from point A to point B but sometimes it isnt enough and you need spinners on those wheels if you dont wanna get jumped. WoW, BAD metaphor. PLEASE consider switching to yahoo! its for the better!

The easiest way to make your site unique is to look at your site and your site onyl. Do things from memory of script or have a very plain window open with all the scripts you are going to use. Forget every other website out there. *in soft voice with legs crossed on carpet* "clear your mind . . . ." then make up a bunch of crap until you get something neat. Play around with crap. Have fun. And don't worry about messing up, if you do, you'll never get your website done. I know, I've got room to talk, my site has been sitting there with nothing really on it since the end of May, but hey, *in nostril voice with eyes crossed* "I'm Specil" Have a Nice Day!

Um, honestly, I think your best bet if you want to download mp3s is downloading a program. I personally use Limewire. But I must warn you that if your computer is ever taken away for any reason, you can be fined for each and every mp3 you have on your computer that you got for free. My cousin (but then again he's not the brightest crayon in the box) downloaded a lot of songs off Limewire and was selling mixed cds at school and in the neighborhood. His computer was taken away from him and inspected. He ended up have over a couple hundred thousand songs. Most of them remixes and unreleased. Then he had download movies and was putting them onto dvd-r. He was using a stomper to put pics on the cd to make it look more realistic. He was fined I think about $25,000 just for the dvds, I dont know what he got for the songs. But yeah, if you want mp3s, your best bet is Limewire, its free and there are TONS of users!

I believe that you should be able to choose whether or not you want your searches and/or bookmarks to be published or private. If you dont have anything to hide then go for it. But I personally have a site that I work with that I don't want any of my friends to knoe that its mine because I want to hear their honest opinion on it. Also people who bookmark their online payment billing websites, I'm sure they dont want everyone to know that they have 22 different credit cards. Also it could increase the amount of spam you get in your inbox. Companies could search the favorites and everyone interested in music could get an e-mail offering a free mini ipod (i hate those stupid ads). This could get very annoying. WoW, this post makes it sound like I really don't really approve of this service. I'm just pointing out the bad. But I will say that there have been serveral times when I found a site that I thought I didn't need and then later on that night I was thinkning about it and I couldn't remember where I found it. This gets aggravating as well. So, I think that if you get to choose which one you would rather have (public or private) its an awesome addition to yahoo! HA! yahoo has a service that google does have! GO YAHOO!

Why I hate Hotbot??? Use it and you'll see why! When I was in school my computer teacher was in love with hotbot and made us use it all the time. But whenever you searched something only the first page of results were even close to what you were looking for. I can never find anything! I have trouble opening the sites when I click on their link on the results page. Its really annoying and very time consuming. I'll admit, I was using google for a long time until I was looking for a particular site and I couldn't find it on google so I went to yahoo and found it. I used to use google for the image search but ever since yahoo stole their idea I use yahoo's image search. And even now, if I can't find something on yahoo, I'll go to google, but I refuse to use any other search engine after using hotbot!
