  1. Hmm... that's odd that you would see the picture of a man baring his insides (goatse?) and the rest of us would see the image just fine. I clicked on the link a second time after you reported a problem, on a different computer, so it couldn't have been cached. Very strange.
  2. For being in the Science and Technology section, this thread is rather unscientific. This is pure speculation. Ask yourselves, if Atlantis was in or near North America, how would the Greeks have ever heard of it? Are you proposing that the Greeks discovered the New World? Doubtful. And aliens? That's even more unlikely than Atlantis having existed in the first place.Plato was a writer. Is it so hard to conceive of him writing a story about a fictional, futuristic society? The literary tradition is filled with those kinds of stories. A great many science fiction novels depend on this idea.
  3. I found another Easter egg. Look on the blackboard on which Bart has been writing. Hidden in the monotony is a url: mrburns.nl. It's not all that special a website—it's got some music, links, tutorials, movies, etc.
  4. Abhiram, the picture I see is a specious newspaper clipping about a woman who thinks she has been shot. Perhaps the owner of the website has enacted some hotlinking measure that only affects you?
  5. Pureheart, I don't think that Destiny needs a Content Management System because he/she has very little content. Destiny, what you need to do is figure out why you want a website; what you intend to do with it. The Internet is just a medium. After you know what you want your site to do, then it will become easier for you to realize what it should look like. There are many html tutorials out thereâI cut my teeth on the Intro to HTML and Teaching Tool found on this page all those years ago. And I do suggest you learn HTML before you attempt Javascript or PHP or any other scripting languages. You've got to learn to walk before you can run, after all. Good luck.
  6. I've never encountered the particular bug you reference, but I've often exerienced IE whitespace bugs. Have you tried redefining the UL class to specify how much whitespace should exist around it? Have you considered using a server-side language, such as PHP to detect the visitor's browser and serve an IE or other version of the page accordingly? Just some thoughts.
  7. Punkangel, what's wrong with porn? Don't hate, appreciate.Quatrux, watch out; taking photos while under the influence is very dangerous. You might find some very surprising things when you develop your photos (or transfer them onto your computer) the next day.
  8. Also keep in mind that this could make the pages load very slowly for many Internet Explorer users. Your visitors may be impressed the first time, but the awe will be replaced with frustration very quickly after waiting for the next page to load, or if it makes their browser crash because they've got a bunch of other programs open.
  9. http://www.snopes.com/crime/safety/biscuit.asp Snopes is the Internet skeptic's best friend.
  10. It seems like you're already doing everything you could try to improve. My Latin class isn't very demanding, so I just go through the book the night before the test and everything turns out fine.
  11. The link says that hotlinking is not allowed.Yeah, I don't get it, either. Perhaps the monkey is trying his hand at agriculture.
  12. Sounds purposely ambiguous to me, Killer. You're either proposing a one-time fsck that obviously means little to you, or proposing the activity itself, without any limiting article to tell people that you aren't looking for a rich, long-term fscking relationship. That's one of the delights of the English language. And the *nix language, too.
  13. I totally thought this thread was a misspelling of "Where is God?"My bad, guys.
  14. I rarely work with forms, so I don't have any ideas besides using class/ids. Why exactly are you avoiding the use of class and id?
  15. Speaking of sigs, St. Mike, that's a doozy you've got there with the homoerotic furries. Meow, indeed.
  16. I don't remember the exact rules, but here's my paraphrase. They say that if your post serves no purpose or is too short, then it counts as spam. I hope this post is just long enough to be considered valid.
  17. Isn't that Edward Elric? As I recall, Alphonse is the kid in the suit of armor.Whoever he is, did you draw him or just edit a pre-existing image?
  18. I knew it. I totally guessed that it was a shape like the one shown inside the magic 8-ball, though I never cared enough to figure out how many sides it had.At this point, they could start manufacturing a digital version with thousands of replies. I bet someone already has. Wouldn't be as cheap as the old classic, though.
  19. Your English isn't that bad, really. You only made two mistakes: instead of "properly" (which is an adverb), you should use "enough", as in "You don't have enough money". And instead of "shop a RAM", we say "buy some RAM". Other than that, you're golden.
  20. Do Saiyans have nipples? Maybe the mothers feed the infants through the tail. That would put the mammary glands right in the buttocks. To warm up some milk, the mother need only sit down for a while. Think of the possibilities!
  21. Thanks for all the positive input, guys. I might try using it in a signature, if I ever get around to making another one of those. I probably won't use it as an avatar because I'm pretty happy with the pic of King Mob I'm currently using (if you're unfamiliar with the character, check out the [now defunct] comic book series "The Invisibles").
  22. Most designers would advise you to keep a consistent theme. The colors and shapes make a better impression on the visitor if they are consistent.That having been said, sometimes it's more fun to design lots of different things. And considering skateboarding's roots in the surfer and punk subcultures, it would be culturally appropriate to discard all the rules and do whatever the f* you want.
  23. Before I get into the topic at hand, I want to point out that, as of this moment, http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ which Moonwitch linked to in the "Answers to Common Questions", is now a page in Portuguese related to spamming. Now my own problem is that I will be leaving the country for a few months, in a month or two. While I am away, I am not sure how often I will have access, or time for online activity. I read in a different thread that Xisto offers paid hosting for as low as $3 and change. Is there a way I can switch in between forum-participation and paid hosting easily, or do I have to have two separate accounts?
  24. But Reaver, RomfordReject1's image has very few colors, all in monochrome, which means that if the image were optimized in GIF or PNG format (PNG would probably be best), it wouldn't be all that large in terms of file size. If my suspicion is correct, it would be more shrewd to use the image map.I just looked at the image's specs, only to find that it is a JPG. I would recommend that RomfordReject1 use one of the formats mentioned above. One of the strengths of those formats is that you can specify how many colors to include. You would probably need less than 16 colors for this image. JPG is best utilized when there are more than 256 colors, among other situations.
  25. Wutske, I had no idea there was an FTP client included in Windows. I just used it. Amazing. It's not as simple as a client with a graphical interface, but it might come in handy if I'm ever at a strange Windows computer and Internet Explorer isn't working for me.Generally, I use Filezilla. I used to use SmartFTP.
