I was going to get google adsence but many people ranked it so now Im all confused. I was reading all the "tutorials" about getting ads and they all are confusing. What would be the best way for me to make money? Is google ads all that bad? Do other big componies have ads also (yahoo ect). I also don't know what would work best for my site (CPC ect). Here are some of the things I would like:-Any income (any income is good income lol)-Banner ads (no popups)-My site doesn't have to much traffic (enough but not like google or yahoo lol)-Moving ads are cool (games or videos not text ones like google ads)-Trusted (big like google, yahoo, msn ect)Thank you very much for your help,SparkxNote: I was worried about posting because I didn't want people to yell at me, flame about how there are like 50 topics about it. I have read them (for the most part). I just want to see if anyone has ideas about the "best ads for my site". If you think this is classified as spam (because there are lots of topics about it just close it, please don't ban me.

OK I don't know if this is the right place for this so could the mods move it the the correct place? Thanks. Whenever I try to access my website or log onto the control pannel I get the following error message: It says contact support team (I assume thats you). Is anyone else having this error or is it my computer? I have checked all my connections but I just got a new firewall (Zone Alarm Pro) which may block it. I looked it doesn't appear to be blocking any Xisto sites. I also just recently cleared my cookies, could this mess it up also? Does anyone have a suggestion? Please help, I really like Xisto and I don't want to start getting mad about it because of some stupid error. Thank you very much, Sparkx EDIT: Again? I just updated my sql database it it appears to not work again? I did a simple task of combining two sql databases into one and now everywere on my site (even the parts that don't use the php my admin) is messed up. I keep getting the error message above as a result? Any other suggestions? Thanks again

I always woundered why microsoft has all the warnings about "Never edit or register". I guess you could do all this work just to have your computer shut down faster. What I do is: 1. Close all open windows 2. Close all the tasks (in bottom right hand corner not in the task manager) 3. Press turn off computer. If this takes to long odds are your hardrive is fragmented. This is easy to solve but can take most of a day to finish (luckly for you, you only need to set it up then wait). To do this simply start you computer up in safe mode. Do this by restarting you computer and pressing F8 (or the hotkey listed). Then go to local disk and safe mode (if it doesn't work try again). Now open up control panel (start-->control panel) and go to administrator settings (or tools). Click computer managment and disk defragment. Now you wait (can take up to 12 hours). It will annaliys your hardrive, the red is bad, the green is unmovable and the blue is good. Once your finished you computer will all go faster and have less errors. I hope this helps, Sparkx

How To Create A Good Forum Step by step instructions
sparkx replied to pyost's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Lol I agree with you. Expanding the community is the hardest part. For me, my website is greate but I don't have any forum perticipation lol. I am going to try making multiple accounts and starting topics (as suggested). It seems like a good idea but it is kinda risky. Takes time to log in and out lol. Any suggestions to what I should call these accounts (regular names) or just numbers so that it doesn't take a real person's user name? Also wouldn't it look funny for me to be going back and forth asking questions? Im going to try it and hope I get people on my site lol. -
I feel I should post here to... Thanks Xisto for hosting my website and the greate support. Xisto is one of the better forum communities I have been to (and I have been to a lot believe me). Happy new year and I hope next year Xisto gets bigger and has more people become active. I hope the Mods stay active and countinue providing this great free hosting. The best free hosting out there in my opinion, I have been to most the hosts (or at least a lot of hosts) and they all have there problems but not Xisto. I rated Xisto.com highly on the poll on all the free hosting directorys. Once again Happy New Year! And keep up the good work.Thanks for the hosting,~Sparkx~

Ops, It looks like ctrl+f doesn't work on this website? At least for my computer anyway. Did everyone have a good chirstmas? Did anyone get the Nintindo Wii? Is it good? I hope everyone has a happy new year and live by there new year resolutions lol. I know I will hopefully have a good new year. After all I did get an Apple Ipod Nano. I'm so happy, no more of the big 33 or 45 records and that large non-moveable turn-table lol. Sorry about spelling errors, Sparkx -
The vista isn't out yet so I really don't know. In my opinion it is going to be anouther windows xp, starts out with many errors and open to viriuses. I love apple computers and for windows vista to match up with the new apple, the microsoft owners (Bill Gates) are going to have to do something big. The vista is going to be like a powerful XP. Nothing new. I could compair the diffrances to the xbox and the xbox 360 (not to much exept more powerful) I would like to see more changes like the nintindo wii, stuff that will actually be a BIG diffrance not just small upgrades. I suggest you wait until next year to get the vista and see the reviews. You pobably shouldn't get it in Janurary 2007 just because of the risk that the vista is just a windows xp sp3 lol. Thanks for reading,Sparkx

My First Site.... I Think It's Turned Out Pretty Well
sparkx replied to leafbunk's topic in General Discussion
It looks very good. I like the template you used lol. Very good. I never used a template on any of my sites so I don't know how to rate a site that has used one. I think it is a very good site for a first site. Ill tell you the truth, it looks better then my first site. I also don't know much about world of warcraft or of the other tutorial sites to it's kinda hard to compair your site. In my opinion you should stick with the site and keep up the good work :)Good luck,Sparkx -

Once again have a good holiday break and hopefully your next year will be good and full of luck. -
Creating Your Own Simple But Effective Site To be resumed soon
sparkx replied to twitch's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Wow this must have took long! I really didn't read it all to tell you the truth. You probably could have made a very, very good PHP website generator in the time it took to make this whole topic laugh out loud. It's very good. Hopefully this helps people. I may read threw it just to see if there is stuff I don't know yet in it. Good Job! I know CSS just P.M. me and ask what you want to know about it. I may make a tutorial about it lol. I know CSS, HTML, Javascript, PHP, MySql, some C++, some Java... If you have any questions in any of these programing languages feel free to ask me. :)Again good tutorial -
... (error post to long to read to tired of reading lol) OK... It seems you have some 10 Host Credit post up there expaining why this is wrong. After reading the first paragraph I diceted that the study was wrong and Fox News has put incorrect stuff on Television yet again lol. I wounder if they have gotten letters to the editor yet about it (if you can have letters to a tv channel lol). Thank you very much Graffiti and Chesso for telling me this.~Sparkx~

Im not sure if they got there facts right, but I just saw on the news that a study has showed that human's can smell as well as dogs can. It says that the age old saying "Dogs have great noses" may be incorrect and humans can smell well we just need to be close to the ground. Is this correct? I'm pretty sure they messed up but could it be possible? I think I hured it on good morning America or the news that comes on before that. Maby it was Fox News?Thanks for the help,~Sparkx~

I was trying to get a good browser that supported both my programs and my alignment for my website. I downloaded ALL of the big ones. Opera, IE explorer 7, Firefox, netscape and msn (lol I wasn't getting lucky). Though I havent gone in debth I have rated them as follows:First: Opera Opera has some features none of the rest have including mouse actions. It support both IE explorer made pages and Firefox made ones. Its easy to switch just by going to the options pannel. The theme is easy to change but the toolbar isn't quite what you would get from firefox.Secound: NetscapeJust like firefox exept a really good anti-virius set-up. Netscape is good if you work for a company that can't get any type of virius. It has good themes and if you like firefox its easy to switch without learning new hotkeys. Third: FirefoxFirefox is a great browser. It has a fully custumizeable tool bar and has good features. If you like your browser to be exactly the way you want it to be firefox is for you! Though not as good as Netscape some people don't like having all that extra anti-virius stuff that slows you down.Forth: MSNThis browser is ok just has some major problems. Hardly custumizable (or it is hard to and I have not found out how to). The webpage only takes up 3/4 of the screen (the rest is toolbar). It does however support many scripts. If you don't mind a small screen MSN might be right for you.Last: IE explorer 7I strongly suggest you not get this browser. If you have it switch to anouther. It has many errors like a broken tabbed browser and random exiting out. The menu bar is somewhat costumizeable. A plus is IE explorer does run many of the programs that firefox and netscape can't run. If you really don't mind many bugs and popups you may want to try IE explorer.This is all of them (at least that work on windows) I havn't put mac ones in yet because I don't have a mac. I think for macs suffary is good. I hope this helped you and didn't make you just more confused. If you like your current browser just stick with it don't download a new. Note: This post may not be 100% currect it just gives the the general idea of the browser.Thanks for reading even with my spelling errors (no google toolbar yet for Opera lol)~Sparkx~

Who Is Your Favourite Free Host? whats your fav free host?
sparkx replied to teartrack_sos's topic in General Discussion
I like ripway (i don't think it's listed). Though Xisto is by far the best, In my book, its not really free. To me free meens "without charge of any type" (I'm not saying it shouldn't advertise it as being free) I just don't think you can rate web-hosting if some you have to participate in and some are free do nothing to join. Of 10 I will rate the web-hosts I have used (almost all ever lol) (10 is the better one no mater what)(ban=bandwidth)Xisto Upload: 10 Storage: 9 Free: 5 Ads: 10 Ban.: 7 Overall: 9Geocities: Upload: 6 Storage: 6 Free: 10 Ads: 7 Ban.: 7 Overall: 70 catch: Upload: 5 Storage: 5 Free: 10 Ads: 0 Ban.: 7 Overall: 5Freewebs: <no info> Overall: 8Ripway: Upload: 8 Storage: 8 Free: 10 Ads: 10 Ban.: 5 Overall: 8That's my personal opinion I suggest Xisto! or Ripway.Thanks for reading.Resources:0Catch http://www.0catch.com/ - 50 meg http://iyfrr.com/?dn=50meg.com&pid=7PO36528U&bkt=11264 - Geocities http://yahoo.com/ - Freewebs http://www.webs.com/ - Ripway http://www.seektoexplore.com/?dn=ripway.com&pid=7POF8BU45&_glst=2 - Xisto http://forums.xisto.com/ -
I was thinking about throwing some php together and making a generator for people (like you) that don't really have the time to. I know how you feel. You don't want to learn all the graphics and stuff you just want a template type thing. Though I personally haven't made a generator for this type of thing yet, yahoo offers a fairly good way to make websites. Just go to Geo cities and click templates. Find one that fits you and fill in your website details. Now, go to your yahoo website and press ctrl + u (or apple + u if your on a mac). A new page "view source" page should open. Press Ctrl + A (everything should be highlighted) press Ctrl + C (this copys it). Open up a new document in Xisto and press Ctrl + V (everything should be pasted). That's it! You have your easly made website right at Xisto (with no ads where as geocities has ads).Note: You may have to edit a little of the code that has ads in it if you don't want them (all it is, is deleting code, not adding it). Also: I'm not sure but you may have to leave a copyright because your using Yahoo's images.Hope this helps,~Sparkx~Resources:http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

Personally I think its just a fad... First, pong (and other games pacman, asteroids ext), great games, spend an hour or so playing it the first time then play it 10 minutes a day after that. Then it was RPG games like Mario and you would play it till you beat the game then probably never play it again. Then they made platform games, Higher speed and fast but not 3D like earlier games. Just fun for some reason? They it was racing game, Very fun 3D fast and addicting. Now its violent games, Lots of violence (steeling, killing ext) Addicting to some, but not to others. Judging from the past violent games should stop soon... Whats next though? Will it really be better? Or will it be a mix of all the games (a 2nd real world type thing) You have to raise up money. Go to places (arcades vacations houses ext). All this fully interactive in some sort of a game suit as a controller. If this is what they do next... is it really better. It will probably save some kids but it will also make kids forget about real life and the problems we face outside the gaming world. Kinda scary isn't it?Also, If we stop making violent games now kids will probably become MORE violent not being able to take out there (already built up from games) anger on the system and start doing it in real life. That's no good...Thanks for reading,~Sparkx~

I am quit experianced in C++, php, Javascript and all the basic junk (HTML XHTML CSS...) I am good at but still need some work in: Java and Java compiled programs. If you think I quialify please email me at Mr_Dylan1615@yahoo.com The bad news is I am only 14 (though very knowlageable about the subject) i am still unable to afford a 3D img creater or a cad program. I was thinking about getting Solid Works because of its low price:) Also I still go to school but that does not stop me from working on programming.How I get exepted,SparkxGood luck with the game

It depends... What do you want in your webpage? Frames- Recomended when you are using the same content over and over again (example: user links and copyright). Also usefull if you would like to navigate to anouther page or if you want some content to stay on the "top" of the page. To do this simply add scrolling="faulse" to your <frameset> tag. Many more advanced pages use frames Forms- aka tables are good if you change your likes for every page, if you want a hit counter on each page and if you want to make it easy for someone to add a bookmark directly to a page on your site. If you use tables hoever you may have to edit multiple things for each page (example: Table row or col) This can be hard if your pages have lots of content. I strongly suggest Frames for longer pages but for small personal websites Forms (table) will work fine I hope this helps. Also if you want to switch from frames to no frames fast there is a code for that. Personal Message me if you want it. Thanks For Reading, Sparkx Sorry for typing errors:(

Hey it looks fun... I hope it is as helpful as "Hack this site .com" (Which gave me some very good security tips on keeping my website safe) I hope this isn't illegal... As you may or may not know I am very aware of how you can get in trouble for hacking. As far as I know its not illegal to hack game of any type so long as it is not to steel someones identity, credit card number or money. If it is illegal to hack games... this website should probably be shut down. Not by me though, I honestly don't care. I'm off to try this game Hope it works on Fire Fox and Windows XP SP2.Thanks,~Sparkx~

Windows Internet Explorer 7 Vs. Mozilla Firefox 2
sparkx replied to xboxrulz1405241485's topic in Software
Mozilla Firefox 2 is better! Its way faster, has less errors and is fully costimizable. I suggest you download Mozilla Firefox 2 and Google toolbar. This gives you a small but powerful control panel (unlike Internet Explorer 7 which with all the useful controls can take up half the page. Also I have experienced the following errors with Internet Explorer: -No pages (page cannot be found on all pages, with full Internet connections and no restrictions from an antivirus) -Crashing on new tab (no matter how hard I tried, after the first week, I started getting a program closing message. "Internet Explorer 7 has has some errors and had to shut down") -Crashing on start up (After a while of the no new tab I started getting the same message when I opened the program... It did mention something about a dynamically loaded library .dll file but it looked fine) So far I have not received any errors from firefox 2 and I strongly suggest you get this great explorer! Thanks For reading, ~Sparkx~ Resources: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17621/internet-explorer-downloads https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ -
Are you sure this is legal? It seems like a scam. Unless you have to sign up and pay money I don't see how it can be free? Nothing is free. Well I'll check everyday until they post the thing I always wanted, Solid Works. I just don't want to be doing something that Microsoft calls steeling. You could probably get in trouble for it? That is the rare chance that Microsoft finds out.~Sparkx~

I don't know any idea why Microsoft even has a red screen of death (RSOD) or blue screen of death (BSOD)? It sounds kinda like another useless program for them to sell? Do these "screens of death" appear when you get hacked or what? Is it the default background? I don't think its smart to use the color red since its been proven to cause people to become angry. I forget were I herd that from but its true. The color green makes people feel happy (after looking at my green poster) laugh out loudSparkx.

Lol check this out! Pyro SAND! Build bombs with sand, water, oil, nitro, salt, c4, napalm, gunpowder and more! http://www.fallingsand.com/ If your not a pyro there are other versions of the game also. Your right falling sand game is to addicting! I played it more than I played runescape laugh out loud! They should really make it a flash 8 file though so all computers can run it.
