  1. Looks pretty interesting so far. I like the name, it is very creative. Wouldn't you want it the other way around though? Like Masti Design (Fun Design), well you probably have your reasons. I like the homepage so far. I hope you add mouseovers for the navigation, I think that would be cool. Looks proffesional so far, keep up the good work. I can't wait to see more.
  2. I do hate now how all the pop-ups get worse and worse but look at it this way. The more annoying the pop-ups are, the less likely someone will return to the site but almost more likely you will get one click out of a couple people because they accidently hit it. Other than that, you get nothing. I think if people would use Google Adsense which are related to the topic then I think they would probably make even more money than they think they are getting with their pop ups
  3. I have uploaded IPB to my sites in the past and it takes roughly 10 minutes. When you make the new directory make sure to name it because that is how people get to your forums. So if you call it monkey it will be located at yourdomain.com/monkey Most every mod comes with an installation manual of some sort. Look for a ReadMe or Install Guide with the files that you download for the mod.
  4. Yes thanks for bringing this up mayank to remind everyone of the rules. I must admit I have made a few short posts here and there but you have to remember that sometimes it doesn't take much to make a response like to those who need help with something. Hopefully you guys know and understand that because sometimes you do it too because that is all that is necessary. I also can't really get the search engine to work properly. I tried using the advanced search and it all seems to give me problems. It brings up like 8 pages of topics or posts and none of them are related to what I'm looking for even if I know there is multiple topics of one thing.
  5. lol Wow, who would of thought it would have looked like that. That is a really cool machine they have there. I really like the design they have now I'm glad they didn't keep any of the old ones. lol The ones from 01 looks like drawings a kid would do. lol I like this little tool, can bring back some good memories.
  6. I don't really care for it. I think the voices are annoying because of course they sound like robots. They don't really speak it that fast either which I wish could be sped up a bit. I guess it would be ok if you couldn't see but wouldn't you have someone helping you anyway? I guess I will just have to stick with Google
  7. I always knew that Googol was a number but I never really knew how big it was. Of course there isn't a number larger than every other number because they just keep going and going. Basically if you were to count all your life you would never hit the largest number in your lifetime because there isn't one. It is like counting every grain of sand on this Earth and you will run out of names.
  8. Well that is why there is paid hosting. Free hosting means that the host is either breaking even or losing money because they don't get money out of the deal accept for ads. There are two packages here and I think that is more than enough. I think if you expect more then you might want to look for paid hosting.
  9. Ya everyone I think goes through that feeling once or more times in their lives. I have had that happen to me before and it sort of sucks but you know there really isn't anything you can do about it because other people like them too and then it gets big but you can't say you were the creator because there probably was before you and you just don't know it. I do think it is annoying when people push in on your territory as if you were never there. Just another part of life.
  10. Like I said before I haven't really tried the Nascar games but I really enjoy Gran Turismo 4. I think that is the best racing game there is. Real cars, awesome graphics, and is really fun. I love how you can buy all the cars in the world and upgrade them. I think it is probably the best out there.
  11. lol Great. A free alternative to Dreamweaver. I guess that means I wasted some money then. I am gonna have to give this a try and maybe I'll sell my dreamweaver on Ebay. I haven't seen any of those buttons though that say "Made by Nvu" Looks pretty nice though and professional. I might have to go download it and try it out to see how it compares to it.
  12. I personally prefer the banner/link exchange. You just have to make sure that you find the right sites. Exchange links with sites that are similar to yours. Of course sometimes they won't accept you but if they don't they will eventually. You can become affiliates with some sites that are small and have a bit of potential to become big and help you out still. I think that if you can make it in with a few top dogs you should be ok to get started. Just make sure your site is complete in content and doesn't have broken links.
  13. I think I might buy this game. It really does sound like a cool game. I am not sure if I should buy it for PC or for PS2. I guess probably PS2 even though if it sort of sucks I think it would be a really great game. I love the racing and really love the cops chasing me in a race so I think that would be the best part for me. Hopefully I can buy it sometime in the near future but I don't want to waste my money when I keep buying stuff on other thigns like parts for my computer and what not.

    Flat Out

    I love the game Destruction Derby and I would like to try Fly Out because I love destruction games but I actually still prefer Burnout because I like the racing mixed in there. I guess considering this post is from 2005 this game is probably a little outdated but that's ok. I think it would be cool to have a game like this for my PC. I guess I better go search on amazon.com to see how much it will cost. Sounds pretty cool.
  15. Oh alright. Well you should remember to quote things like that unless you had written it youself.
  16. Personally I prefer MyBB which is My Bulletin Board. It is rather similar to this one (Invision Power Board) but is free. I don't know though how many modifications are out for it because I never really looked into it though. As for a second place, PHPBB is definately a good board. They have lots of styles nad modifications but I really don't prefer the administrator panel. To check them out further check these links https://mybb.com/ https://www.phpbb.com/
  17. I do think that MAC has very nice resources and is easy to use but I am sticking with PC. I think it is because it seems more things are made for PC and aren't all compatible on a MAC like some games and what not. Of course I am not really an expert but that is just my point of view.
  18. I think it is pretty hard to choose a game of the year. I am going with Americas Army. Ever since I started playing in November it kept me going. Of course it has been around a while but it updates with new versions all the time.
  19. Welcome to Xisto. You sound like you are a very active person in many things. I also enjoy biking, running, and try to make web sites. I'm sure you will fit in here just fine. If you are looking for a good free web host this is the place to be.

    Hi All

    Welcome virky to Xisto. I'm sure this forum will be helpful to you, whether you are looking for a free web host or just a place to hang out. There are many friendly people here and you will hopefully feel at home here.
  21. That is really interesting. I wonder how many people were studied when testing this and what not. Of course I am not really going to base any of this on anything because they didn't test everyone in the world and it is a signature, not the real person. I guess you can sort of tell where you get some of these personalities. That is really interesting. Make sure you quote what you take from other sites though. I found this posted at many sites. https://vishwavivek.wordpress.com/2006/03/ http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  22. Well you can pay really cheap for hosting at https://xisto.com/ or if you don't mind small ads on your site you could get free web hosting over at http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Keeping credits here is really simple though if you can take a few minutes to post each day.
  23. Well the thing is people don't know what they are doing when they are drunk and people will hand them fireworks just to get a laugh. I also don't care for the law about fireworks being illegal but there really isn't anything we can do. I really wish that we could set them off and have a good time but it is the parties that get out of hand and when a firework goes wrong that causes problems. Of course many set them off anyway because the cops really don't do anything about it but they said in my area that this year they are cutting down so I probably won't be able to do them which really sucks because that is the one thing I was really looking forward to this summer.
  24. Well depending on your skills it could take some practice but you could make a design using Adobe Photoshop but if not you could hard code it. If you mean program to code it in I would suggest Macromedia Dreamweaver 8. It helps finish what you are typing with it's autocomplete. What type of Java and Flash effects are you looking for? If you go to http://www.pixel2life.com/ they have thousands of tutorials for those resources. Search for the type of effect you are looking for and it will search for one in their database and they basically give you the code and explain what each part does. Hopefully this helps.
  25. It looks really nice, I like the layout and the banner. The colors are nice as well but it almost looks too small. I would recommend making it a little larger even if you aren't going to fill in some of the space for content. I don't really know what the two content boxes are there for so I could be wrong. It depends on how you are coding it.
