  1. Matak, HDTV is high-definition. 19" is actually quite large. It's about as big asd they get and still be called a monitor. and thing past that is probably going to be called a TV.I'm happy with my tiny 15" HP LCD. works great for what I do. (Little gaming, mostly web-surfing)The only problem is it doesn't go past 1024x768... It's very crisp, fast, way easier on my eyes than the old CRT, and has an auto-adjust feature. (Life saver when something is way off - and it gets the page EXACTLY to the edges of the screen - so you can use it all)I'll probably never get a plasma now. Knowing the burn in issue, I wouldn't risk it. I leave my computer on most nights, and if something were to pop up and keep the screensaver from coming on/monitor from auto-shutoff, it would be done. Which would bite.So yeah - I'm perfectly happy with my LCD. Great monitor if a little small.
  2. .... I beg to differ. PS1 and N64 were very close to equal. I own both, so no "you don't know that". Don't get me wrong, N64 made gaming history if you ask me. That was probably Nintendo biggest console. No other game like Perfect Dark. As for PS2 and Gamecube... Gamecube has simple graphics. The games are usually simplified so they look really neat. I have nothing wrong with that, but it's not as graphic intensive as PS2, it was way more gameplay-centered. That's Nintendo's thing. If you didn't notice, Xbox came out over half a year after both those. It should even be counted in that "round".
  3. https://xisto.com/ Xisto - Web Hosting is, (I think) hosted by the same servers, though I'm not sure. They're atleast partnered or something. That's what you want, anyway.
  4. I downloaded it a few days ago.... It actually installed and RAN on my old PC. 192Mb ram, 600Mhz CPU WinXP.The first thing I noticed was the clean interface. Everything was cleanly tabbed and had the pop-open menus and all. It took forever to install, but I think it's because of the sad specs of said computer. Other than that, it looked mostly the same to me. No new tools, maybe some filters. I didn't look. That brush incompatibility kind of kills it though. =\ I've got lots of brushes I'd want to use....
  5. I'm definitely a Sony fan. I've had PS1, PS2, and hopefully a PS3.... someday. The graphics are stunning, with 50GB of game.... You could make a practically non-ending game. The one thing Sony has always, and probably always will lack, is little mini-games and side missions to keep you entertained and interested. I've actually been looking at the Wii, because the PS3 just isn't sanely priced. At least for me. Besides, the gameplay looks alright and the war games look crazily engaging. Besides the price is nearly reasonable.Someday when I have a real job, () I'll buy me a PS3, but for now, if it's anything it'll be a Wii. Just because it's affordable and I'll never buy a Microsoft product. Bill Gates has enough money as it is.
  6. Yeah - that's a php 5 command. So, there really isn't any way to make it work on Xisto. I'm sure they will switch to it when it's stable, though. Unless it's absolutely required to have it, you MAY be able to edit it out somehow. I'm not sure about that, though. You'll have more of a chance messing it up than making it work.
  7. TeeCee's is very nice. Definitely my favorite.
  8. Hmph. I was just going to say that. Oh well. You can get phpBB3 betas here: https://www.phpbb.com/development/ And, uhhhh.... yes. There are a few mods and a couple very nice skins for phpBB3 out already. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ I, personally don't care they aren't supported. That's the way I like it. I have a beta set up at my Xisto. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Feel free to register and check it out. There's a very nice AJAX chat box there. (Link at the top; same icon as search) Obviously - it supports some very nice features and allows for crazy skins. I really like it so far.
  9. Wow. Been wondering how to do this for a while now. Thanks a lot for the code, midnitesun!
  10. I'd do it real quick, but you gave a bad link. I also need what the new size needs to be. Then I can help.
  11. Ahhhh. Another smart person. Heh. Distro is short for Distribution, many times it's called "flavor", every distro has it's benefits and whatnot. There are the very powerful self-complied ones like Gentoo and Debian, for advanced users, then there are WAY easier ones. Like OpenSuse, Mandriva and *Ubuntu. (Comes in Kubuntu, Edubuntu and Xubuntu)For a first user, I suggest Ubuntu or Kubuntu. Try them both, the difference is one runs Gnome and one runs KDE. You'll be able to find out the difference between those two on the internet. Anywho. Ubuntu is EXTREMELY free-software based, meaning you will never have to pay for it. Ever. It's a small download, and they put out newer things around every 6 months. Not to mention, they are all live boots. Meaning you can "try before you buy." (AKA install)They have HUGE repositorys with any piece of software you could ever need/want, and the install is literally a breeze. There are many guides on the internet to help you on the partitioning thing. But basically, partitioning splits up your hard drive into pieces, each looks like a new hard drive to your OS. Basically, you'll need two partitions. One for linux and one for Windows. (You probably won't want to be stranded with just Linux on your first try)That's a very good article. Lays out some fundamental differences, that a Windows person would need to know. Good luck with getting it installing it. If you'd like some help or recommendations, I'll gladly help. Post back asking and I'll give you my MSN. (If you use it)I'm not really a Linux user yet, though. I've tried about 4 different Distros in an emulator, because I only have a 40Gb hard disc. I'll be installing OpenSuse after I get my new 250Gb HDD for Christmas.
  12. Hmmm. Skimmed it, looks VERY nice. Really thorough, which is nice for us CSS newbies. Also not needing any HTML editors and stuff is very nice, so anyone anywhere can do it. Doesn't matter about OS, just gotta have a browser. I've worked with a (premade) CSS layout, and it's so easy to make dynamic and edit, it blows other websites away.I've been wanting to get into pure CSS for a while. I'll definitely give it a try soon.
  13. Ok, to start, the purpose of the script. I'm trying to make a script that puts a link on every page on an Invisionfree forum (IPB 1.3) that takes you to a thread and automatically put in the url from which you clicked. I already have the whole thing working, but when I go to edit my signature, it inputs most of the url into the box. It replaces my whole sig with that, so it's a big problem. The code: This part makes the link on every page.<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> <!-- document.write('<A HREF="http://z14.invisionfree.com/worknplay/index.php?act=Post&CODE=02&f=25&t=31&Post=' + location.href +'">'); document.write('Report Topic'); document.write('</A>'); // --></SCRIPT> This part inputs the url variable into the post box.<FORM NAME="Post"><INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="Posturl"></FORM><script LANGUAGE="javascript">var locate = window.locationdocument.Post.Posturl.value = locatevar text = document.Post.Posturl.valuefunction delineate(str){theleft = str.indexOf("Post=") + 5;theright = str.lastIndexOf("&");return(str.substring(theleft, theright));}function delineat(str){theleft = str.indexOf("showtopic=") + 10;theright = str.lastIndexOf("&");return(str.substring(theleft, theright));}if(delineat(text) == "31") {eval('document.REPLIER.Post.value = delineate(text)');}</SCRIPT> So the idea is to report a thread if it is spam. It brings you to a thread made for reporting them and automatically puts the URL of the bad thread in. As I said, when the "Post" variable is passed in the url, it works fine for it's purpose. However, if there is no Post variable in the url it reports everything after http (IE ://z14.invisionfree.com/worknplay/index.php?act=Post&CODE=02&f=26) I just realised it did that to every post, and not just the signature. The thread I would like it to report into is "http://z14.invisionfree.com/worknplay/index.php?act=Post&CODE=02&f=26&t=7;, how would I get that if... loop to work to only make it put in the text in that certain thread? I'm new to Javascript, so I'm not sure how to use if statements with a str. =\ EDIT: Mmk, I got it to where it would only put it in one url, but that url just so happens to change for every topic. So what I need is some sort of wildcard after "http://z14.invisionfree.com/worknplay/index.php?showtopic=31&st=0&%23last; So it will enter the URL only on that thread. Second edit: All right, I got it completely figured out. If anyone wants the code for whatever reason, feel free to PM me...
  14. First thing I'd like to say, is I'd never whois someone and tell the cops. I know that's wrong, and I'd feel *very* betrayed if someone did it to me.Second, people have been killed directly from pot. Drug overdose kills more than you think. You take it for too long, you can't get enough to get the feeling. So you take HUGE amounts. You die. It's very simple. Anyway, I think most everything has been mentioned, so I'm done here...
  15. Ohhhh. NES was great fun. I still have one, but it doesn't work very well anymore (Wonder why. ) I'll probably try to buy a replacement someday, just to play all the games. You can get new ones that *work* when you want them to, you know. XDI'll definitely keep the old one, just because, but..... yeah. Also, Perfect Dark, and Diddy Kong Racing will never die. I remember all-night Perfect Dark Tournys with various friends. Those were the days. XD
