  1. I have been using Windows IE 7 Beta (2 and 3), I really like it, but i have allways been an IE fan . And now i am downloading the fully fledged version! But the sad thing is, i have never printed a web page with it lol :PGota go, need to restart for the install to complete
  2. I thought the same way as you when i got my 360, but you find that your Hard drive fills up with stuff from Live. Right now i only have about 2 gigs left because i have 18 demos and some movies all downloaded from live for free! When you get one, i **think** you will find that storage goes rather quick
  3. I have been waiting for this, Microsoft have announced at X06 Korea that they are bringing out a 100 GIG HDD for Xbox 360 yey, release date in korea is March 06 but no news of the UK or USA release dates. This (for me) in another nail in the ps3's casket. Scource Engadget
  4. Yeah, we tryed that several times, but the print was still there, it was being saved on all the computers (5-8 depending if the laptops are on) as a print task. By restarting the printspooling on the computer which the printer was hooked up to that cleared the task
  5. Ok, all fixed, we had to use run to run a systems screen, then disable and restart the "Printer spooling" now everything is handy dandy
  6. Ok, so the way the network is set up is like this, (with more computers but this is just an example)Computer (a -----> network hub <------ Computer(b ^ l l l vPrinter (1So computer (b tryed to print a document on printer (1, now at the top of the que (since 7 this morning, it is now 7 in the evening) is that document, at about 8 this morning the printing task was "Deleted" so the current status is "Deleting printing" but in no way will it delete the printing (it has had I have tryed to delete the printing from Computer (a and Computer (b and i have restarted the printer, nothing seems to work.

  7. Tsunami also made some slight code modifications to make phpBB integrated version, it is so perfect, it fits in with evertything beautifuly, check it out http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  8. I use a similar one called "Log me in" https://secure.logmein.com/home they have a free and a paying version, all you need is the computer to be on and connected to the internet, then on any computer in the world you go to logmein.com and can access your computer through any browser im not sure if it works on Mac's though :S
  9. I like truefusions the best, no empty space, great colors, text fits but isn't hard to see/notice, you know where to look and it doesn't look like a slur, one of the best sig's i have seen!
  10. Oh, no problem tsunami, again, i thank you.
  11. Hey tsunami, a member was wondering if i had an estimate on when the search and letter not clickable feature for the youtube directory, when about will it be done? Thanks
  12. Thanks wassie, looks good, can i also have the edit file?Thanks again
  13. Hi wassie, thanks for the reply, but im not sure what you mean by a "Wireframe" of an Rc? Could you explain (i am probably being really dumb =S)

  15. Wow nice, that is about a 4% ctr isn't it, my current sites ctr is 0.75% :)As BlenderG said your site won't get instant traffic and instant cash, but if you are patient and keep the site updated and fresh, as the site gets older it will get a steadier flow of traffic thus causing a steadier flow of ad clicks.
  16. I know, where has Mr. Helpful Helpdesk gone, he was a life saver, we need him back or a new and improved Mr and Mrs HelpdeskBrandice, the SQL on my site seems to be working fine, fortunately and unfortunately :S
  17. My site has been up for a month today, it had a slow start and has had adsence from the start, it has currently made $8.19 , i know it is not a lot but this is in the first month of a site with only 32 members at present and 1200 or so posts.Ps. It is a forumAs for what site to make, my suggestion would be to make a site on something you enjoy / are interested in. When you make a site on something you don't enjoy or are not interested in the subject it is based on you will quickly lose enthusiasm for the site. If i where you i would start a forum, i find it a fun type of site to run / maintain and you can make them suit your subject very nicely, also ads can easily be integrated and can generate quite a few hits (i have heard stories)
  18. Thanks, yeah the google image is bad i will do that tommorow, I still can't see this border issue what browser, operating system and resolution are you running? Bebe, thanks i agree that we need more posts but it is not too old yet, it will be one month online on the 10th of this month and it is doing quite well in the msn rankings
  19. Sorry for the long waitHere is the verdict, TrueFusion, they like your banners style best but expressed concern that the car on the banner wasn't an rc car and wondered if it was possable to change the F1 car image to an rc car.Also the background no longer needs to be able to be scrolled, i have modded the code so that the forum is a fixed width of 800 px

    Call Centres

    Oh i agree totaly, i hate call centres, the worst was when i called sky a few months ago, waited for an hour or so, got connected "Hi please can we have *line dies*" Then i called back the predicted que had been jacked up from 45 mins (predicted the first time) to 100 mins! Arghh!Another is Dell, when you speak to them you say somthing and the oporater hears it 2-3 seconds later, they say somthing you hear it 2-3 seconds later, it is as if we are looking each word up in the dictionary!
  21. Its not as simple as that, if it was the top 10 would change daily. There are no real tricks, from my understanding making your site position high in search engines comes from 1. Having a bot friendly page, text links, as little pictures as possable and no hidden keywords etc. 2. Having incoming links on other sites pointing to your site, don't pay one of these companies to put 40,000,000 links all over the internet, the bots pick up on this and will "blacklist" your site (not sure about that terminology) 3. Having content on your site, the bots will pick up on this, you want text content which the bots can index. 4. Meta tags in your page, you don't want to use too many keywords in your keywords tag 15-25 is a good amount. Also re-directs are not robot friendly. 5. One consideration is the domain name, it seems that msn will look at your domain and treat it like a super keyword, my domain is http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ on msn if you search rc forum it comes up 3rd but if you search nitro car forum it wont be in the top 40 I too am trying to work up the ranks, i have achived with MSN Search (the easiest one) and am number 3 (as i said earlier) and number 1 on the uk version. However i still havn't achived much with my google position, i still am not in the top 1000 for the search rc forum or rc-forum .
  22. Thanks both of you, i am working on a few of your suggestions, and some of your suggestions are great and i have never even thought about. Once the site has grown some i will be finding a few shops / related sites to have as the advertising instead of google adsence because it is even more relevent and interesting to the surfer.Owbussy, I am using phpbb with the "SoftBlue" style which is no longer available because it isnt compatable with the new phpBB, unless you add some code which i have done.I have used Smartors "Ezportal" which is very good, you set in the code which forums to get the announcements, polls etc from.I will start doing announcements on the rc world soon. I have had 2 or 3 spammers with pill sites signing up, is this common?
