That really is a nice story, I saved it in my "drafts" folder and it is ready to be sent to anyone that needs some cheering up! Thanks OpaQue!

Yeah, but unfortunately, "all" means more money , and I doubt that some people have much of that... Of course, many people also like to experiment with Linux on Mac too, so getting a Mac won't be a reason to say goodbye to Linux!

You're 100% right, thanks for pointing that out.

One word - LOL :(I know what it's like to get invited to fix somebody's PC, and then get lied to! Once I was fixing a friend's PC at his place, and he answered with "nope, didn't do anything" to any question I asked him about any recent changes or program installations that he may have initiated on his PC. He doesn't understand that it's not embarrassing to answer that question! It's his PC and he has the full right to do anything with it, and answering my questions can only speed things up! (turns out that he tried to reinstall Windows himself, and failed)Anyway, that really is grade A stupid! Their "repair" costs will eventually rise above the price of 5 legal Microsoft Windows XP copies, and then they will (hopefully) learn their lesson sooner or later!

Whoa whoa whoa! What's all this about? You should be grateful to the person that wrote the drivers for your devices! They could also just go and do something else instead of writing device drivers for some dude that just got a new e.g. TV card. There are numerous reasons why the manufacturer of some hardware equipment does not write drivers for Linux, but only Windows: 1) The company just does not feel like it 2) The company employees don't know how to do it 3) The company has an unwritten "contract" with Microsoft that pressures them to hesitate writing drivers for Linux 4) etc. So, it's not some coder's fault that the drivers do not work well, after all, most manufacturers even refuse to publish any driver writing documentation for their devices and, therefore, leave the driver coder nothing to start with! That's the primary reason for most non-working/partially-working drivers for Linux being present on the internet. Why do you think NTFS disks are read-only in Linux? Because Microsoft won't publish any information about writing drivers for the NTFS file system (I guess we should all understand why)! So, give it a rest already!

Wow... Now that was a mouthful! I concur with everybody else here when it comes to the conclusion that your mother really needs some help! On the other hand, I'm very happy for you because you turned out to be a very nice person, despite your mother's behavior! So, just keep it that way! Sooner or later, you will be your own man, and you will be completely independent from your mother, then you should see if her situation improves, or goes downhill... If it goes downhill, it's again up to you to decide if you want to help her or not, but at least you don't have to take that bull***t from her every single day... Anyway, just hang in there and know that we are always here to help!

Of course I do!I really like to read all sorts of forums, it's quite relaxing, and Xisto is not an exception, so the answer is definitely YES. Like amhso said, you can't post something decent without reading the other posts first... And everybody knows that off topic posts are quickly removed by numerous moderators around here, and that's another bonus for Xisto - no spam whatsoever, mmmm... it's like a dream come true! All of this is topped off with hosting credits, so you can expect a warm feeling inside you once you click on "Add reply" button :(In the end, it all comes down to this: you must read the posts, whether you like it or not... (which is good!)

I have changed the calendar system, if I have made a post on a certain day displayed on the calendar, it will become a link, and clicking it will forward you to a page where all posts made on that same day will be listed.Oh, and Kenny is my favorite South Park character, I have placed a picture of him as my avatar on all forums that I have registered on, so, he actually is my logo, sort of! And now for the comment spamming protection system, coming soon... :(Once again, thank you all for your suggestions!

Yeah... I guess I should add a visual confirmation section ("Type the word you see on the picture into this box") in the comment system. Will get back to you as soon as I finish it :(Thanks for the suggestion T100!

Thanks for the feedback xJedix! The first suggestion is really constructive and I will surely implement it soon! I will also think about the second one... Maybe you've actually got something there...

There's always this:"Could we exchange pictures?"

As you can see, I have created a blog of my own. And when I say "my own", I'm talking about everything on it (well, maybe a few icons are "stolen" )! The design and the blog script is entirely created by me. My first post on it should explain why I have created my own blog script, instead of using Blogger or Wordpress... I have also created it in such a way to store everything in files on the server, not in a MySQL database... (I was planning to host it on Xisto.com, and because of the MySQL downtimes, I wanted my site to be available even when these downtimes occur... eventually, I have decided to host my blog on a different host and use my Xisto account for something else, but it was too late as I have already finish the script ) Well, enough chit-chat, tell me what you think about My Blog Any suggestions are welcome! Notice from jlhaslip: fixed link

Something similar to this has already been posted here: http://forums.xisto.com/index.php?shoic=9683&hl=icon And in the same topic, I have stated out why you shouldn't use this method to create your icons! You MAY trick most browsers by creating a favicon in paint, or just renaming the icon from e.g. bmp to ico, but it still isn't an icon!

That means you can either keep your existing Xisto subdomain name (e.g. yourname.trap17.com), or you can register your own domain (http://www.mydomain.com/) and use it with Xisto (only following a few steps inside your CPanel is all it takes to configure your domain name to point to your Xisto hosted site). But if you choose the second option, remember that it's up to you to register a domain name!
