  1. i use dreamweaver MX2004.front page is awful... i mean really awful, its utter crap, BUT its easy to use. frontpage makes building web pages as easy as creaing word docs. however, its not very standards compliant and from a professional point of view, it shouldnt be used.if you want to be professional, use dreamweaver... its "industry standard". its what all the pro's use I guess.there are probably some other editors out there that are just as good as DW tho. but its best to hand code your pages (i do - in DW's code view)... thats professional. as this gives you total control and its also helpful if you are using a programming language or complicated scripted language.
  2. haha all teh consoles are learning from the best gaming system - the PC.yep its true. soon the differences between PC and consoles (gaming wise) will be hard to tell.
  3. lol dont we all - hence why im on firefox instead of that POS M$ IE
  4. this is for broadband users only!! ive already done the tweak ages ago. believe me, it works a treat. it really does work, pages do load 2/3 times faster. try it if you have firefox and you are on broadband. you really will be amazed. however, if you have dial up, DONT do it as it will have the opposite effect. ElBandoneonWEbsite, this tweak isnt the same as that - just to clear things up.
  5. i used to play counter strike on and off since its release...now that half life 2 and counter strike source is out counter strike source is all i play lolim on it all day and im also in a clan its a bloody addictive game tho.
  6. lol u linux user i kno M$ make some *BLEEP* products sometimes, but winxp isnt that bad. its just got quite a lot of security holes. i actually find it pretty stable, and i play games on it, run a web server and a shoutcast server (online radio broadcasting). it doesnt crash often either, in fact i cant remember the last time it crashed
  7. haha well that site is based in the US so its not that accurate for me, as i live in the UK. if you live in the UK and wanna test your speed, there is a speed test on http://www.thinkbroadband.com/ which is pretty good. i kno im on a 1mb cable connection anyway
  8. right, the first reason i hate it is because it has a splash page suggests that it was designed for IE 6.0 & 1024.768 screen res.i consider that wrong. you should design your site for all browsers and screen resolutions...the actual design doesnt look too bad. but its a bit... well generic. you need to sort out that side bar on the left, its a bit messed up (images not aligned correctly) but maybe thats coz im using firefoxthe font is a bit too small as well, increase it to say 10pt.and make headings bigger than body text as wellum...thats all for now
  9. for coding pages - dreamweaver mx2004for graphics - photoshop cssometimes for some graphics i need to load fireworks as it integrates with dreamweaver (only for certain features)im usesless at graphics tho.
  10. Brian, PM me your first name, last name and email address and i can send you an invite i think the fact that it was associated with google (the best search engine ) made it popular and thats why lots of people wanted one. plus once you actually try the service, you'll come to realise how great it is. oh yea, and the space, how can u forget the space, a whole gigabyte of storage, no other free email service gives you that much space. and POP access
  11. i have norton internet security 2004it has serveed me well since i got it and i see no reason to changecomes with antivirus and firewall amongst other things.
  12. i dont think its possible to edit a swf file with flash.you will need the .fla file if you want to edit it.then with flash, you can export the .fla file as a .swf and upload it again. however it sounds as if you dont have the .fla file, so i dont think its possible for you to edit it.btw, the trial version of flash doesnt let you export files or save them anyway, so ur prolly wasting your time
  13. sorry mate, but ive gotta disagree with just about everything youve just said!! gmail looks a lot better than hotmail - its simple and its not cluttered with ads all over the place. but i guess thats opinion. you can also use your gmail with msn messenger, all you need to do is get a .net passport for it. you can also set up messenger to check your gmail for you as well. i havent actually tried (i use gmail notifier) but wht u need to do is get msgplus. then u need to enable POP access for your gmail (thats something hotmail doesnt give btw). i hear what your saying about the integration, but what does gmail have to integrate with?
  14. im in [PCGF] PC Gamer UK Forums clan... Guss the forums is our site lol... you can view our clanbase profile thingy here: http://www.clanbase.com/claninfo.php?cid=653429 we play ET and COD as well as counter strike source... im only in teh counter strike source division as im crap at ET and COD
  15. not sure lol, does this help: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ i tried this code instead: echo "User's IP address: " . $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]; that seems to have worked...
  16. i tried it and it doesn't work for me either, i get this error: Notice: Undefined variable: REMOTE_ADDR in c:program fileseasyphp1-7wwwindex.php on line 10 Code i used is: <p><?php echo "Your IP is $REMOTE_ADDR"; ?></p> the page is located here: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ (this is my home pc/server btw, its not always up lol... sorry if its down)
  17. yea...wheres thre guide? to make this a more helpful thread, i find this useful for newbies: http://www.overclockersclub.com/pages/overclock_faq/
  18. im not actually hosted yet, but i came across it through one of those sites which large databases with free hosts.this has been getting a lot of good comments, plus ive looked at the features and they offer stuff that not even PAID hosts give, which is excellent.i dont mind having to stay active on the forums, i dont get out much anyway :rolleyes:cant wait to be hosted
  19. arent there enuf of these topics now?gmail is by far the best, it has great features, massive inbox and its quite fast.
  20. which amd processor are you thinking of going for?any athlon 64 outperforms the pentium by far, there is just no competition.when it comes to athlon xp vs p4, it depends on the CPU. an xp2800+ could easily outperform a p4 2.8Ghz (without HT ?)the motherboard will depend on what CPU you intend to buy.P4's arent really worth it these days tbh, but it depends on your main use for the computer.
  21. my inbox is 22% full and it loads in like 2/3 seconds. im on 1mb broadband connection though, so i dont know about you. btw, there are either 2 MS employees in this thread, or 2 morons, according to the poll

    Phpbb

    the great thing about phpbb is that its free! you have to pay for an invision power board or vBulletin board. phpbb is easily customizable, easy to use for admins and users as well invision board - you have to pay for, but its also easily customizable and has great features. this seems to be the most popular choice tbh vbulletin - again u have to pay for it. if you have a business site, specially one doing e commerce, i suggest this one... makes u look rich and respectable lol. it seems pretty customizable, but i dont like the features for the users. also i havent used this a lot either (as an admin), but tahts just wot i tihnk. one forum ive got my eye on is one called ProBB, http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ . its not yet released are there are no public beta/test versions, but it seems to have the normal features of any board. also the code is valid (you dont get this on any of the 3 mentioned here), which also means it loads pretty fast as well.
  23. if you really really cant think of anything to spend it on id save it up...no one says you HAVE to spend it lolbut, if you do want to spend it, think of some pc/video games that you want to play but havent yet? or maybe some music CD's or something. DVD's as well. there may be some movies you havent seen!
  24. ive always gone for AMD, only once i can remember having an intel CPU... i think it was a p133 lolthe main function for my pc is gaming, amd always seems best.if you are on a budget the athlon XP's are great value for money. if money is no object then go for an athlon 64 as its performance cant be beaten by any other processor ;)the intel pentium 4 is crap tbh, i dont see any reason to buy one, they are too overpirced IMOoh yea and the AMD's are easily overclockable
  25. hmmmwell, i would usually say custom build it yourself... find the parts and put it together, it cant be too hard i guess. plus its a hell of a lot cheaper and you feel chuffed that you just built a computer lolbtw, i woulndt go for alienware tbh, they are a rip off, you can custom build a pc with the same spec for a lot cheaper! sorry, but its true...
