New Images made for my clansite :P
Dragonfly replied to HoRuS's topic in Graphics, Design & Animation
All are excellent. I like the first one with top two logos patched up there. Those are really nice. But for signature the first one looks too big and huge i don't know where can it be used though. The second one looks good too, atleast to me. I'm not that good at graphics so I usually rate well those who have the guts to show their works on graphics. The good part of the second one is the font color and style. I like it. The third one deserves to be commented for all reasons. It is the most professional signature among all those three. It can be used for signature in forums and elsewhere. The font style matches well with the side two eagles. You should keep posting those kind of images in the forum. It gives much ideas too. Thanks. -
I would like to join a forum where I can earn something. Life is rewarding one, one should get reward for what he is doing as well. That's why I'm here in Xisto.com and it makes sense to create credits otherwise things will be difficult to maintain.You could also create something which is rewarding. I don't think anyone will just join your forum unless they get something. I don't mean that you should start a free hosting site, No I don't mean that. What I mean is may be even something like games to talk to or there is games in your forum. Or still some lessons on coding or stuff. I would go for religious discussion as well. Today religion plays a very important role in one's life. And many people are going crazy due to extremism in our religions. This could be averted only by having a common platform where everyone can just discuss everything openly. For example, aren't there extremism in Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Judaism, Sikhism, even Buddhism? Man should make use of his religion to become a better human being, a better fellows to his friends and colleagues. Things could improve with conversation and participation. If you host such kind of forum I would come as well. A forum which is related to issues could be interesting a part from rewarding forum. Forum related to issues will mean discussing about the issues face by the world communities. From poor countries debts to smoke emission by rich -industrialized countries. Nuclear issues and disarmaments and all those hosts of related topics. These kinds of topics easily attract everyone.

Wishing all the Chinese members a very happy holiday!!! Festivals are God's gifts holidays to man.. will you accept that? hehe.. yes after a hard life's work which is endless holidays bring comfort and even competitors are also taking rest on these days, so one can spend the days peacefully and relax about where they wish to.

It would be interesting to know about this.Have a lots of Zongzi and enjoy! -
Now I'm a worry man.. why? because whether I should keep my laptop on or off during one - two hours break or not. I wonder if on and off many times a day will cause anything to the system. I usually put it stand-by most of the time when I go out for few hours. However I wonder which state is the best now.. whether we switch off or not there is all the time good and badeffect.

I have both MSN messenger 7.0 which I downloaded and Windows Messenger which was automatically installed by the Operating System (Windows XP professional). I came to know that many times Windows messenger will log in automatically as soon as I switch on my system. In fact I made automatically sign in at MSN messenger which Windows messenger is also seeming to use. Since I don't want this thing to happen I try to delete the short cut in Program Files at C drive but I cannot delete. I just delete Start Menu Short Cut which doesn't help. Is there any way to completely delete or atleast disable Windows Messenger? Please help me. Note: I searched the forum and couldn't find any topics related to this, if it was posted before kindly link me. Thanks.

Wonderful song, nicely composed. With this kind of lyrics the one you are referring to cannot help but has to forgive you absolutely.. hehe... The song clearly send a message to express that he feels really sorry over the things he'd done in the past and will not repeat it in the future, atleast according to my understanding. In any relationship, there should be one side that could say, "I am sorry." With this if the relationship has to flourish it will, if not then we can call the day. Since you use simple words not phrases and stuffs its easy to understand and can penetrate listeners ear easily... post more of them...

My New Site Give me advice and suggestions
Dragonfly replied to fffanatics's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Very nice. I like the top banner very much so also the background of the left main menu. But the only problem seems to be the main body. There is no space between the left menu and the main body. The tables are meeting and there's no padding made. Give some gap between the two. The rest looks awesome. Also you could change the main body background to some other image like menu may be.. -
His page is empty now except those words and some ads. Pity... Your new layout is excellent. I had the same experience like you.. there was nothing I could do except telling him to stop... anyways it proves that someone liked our works.. hehe.

Well I don't know if this forum has become slow or not. As far as my experience and observation is concerned it is pretty fast as usual. It may have to do with their browsers or their internet speed. Of course we have to keep in mind that Xisto has got some ads and graphics which can slow down the forum to some extend but without those the site and forum will look dull. I think this speed is quite good.

Second Animated Sig color looks good
Dragonfly replied to Saint_Michael's topic in Graphics, Design & Animation
Saint Michael, though your latest sig is very nice your signature sig impresses me more. Can I suggest to have one forum where graphic request may be made since we have many expert graphic designer around? Also, it won't be free the one that request graphic will pay in terms of credits. -
Get Rid Of The Banner Ads In Yahoo Mail This is a legal way
Dragonfly replied to trihhoang's topic in General Discussion
This sounds interesting. I would definitely try out how it will eventually come out. It seems that Yahoo isn't putting advertisement in its email service for some countries. According to the market in a particular country they may change their policies for each country. In fact, Yahoo China offers 1Gigabytes while to the rest of the countries (not all though) they give about 250MB. Even hotmail does the same thing. Hotmails selectively gives 250MB storage capacity to many countries but not to third world and developing countries. For me I don't mind seeing yahoo advertisement inside mail inbox but if they start with pop-ups it would be really annoying. pop-up blockers will be fixed all the time so as to prevent it from popping up. I think they know this fact that's why they put huge banner on top of email inbox. But sometimes no ads are found too. Anyways, thanks... for the tip. I'll try out. -
Yes this sounds impressive but the answer is very easy, Windows XP will win eventually. Mac OS may be very impressive in all areas but they are not common man friendly in terms of price in particular. And price will count alot as long as the standard of life of netizens in the world continue this way. It also said stable and compatible but since many users are using Windows and some games and even many softwares are not meant for Mac. They are not available. In such situation I think Windows will continue to dominate. With Windows Longhorn around, Mac OS may be threatened more. Even though many people hate Microsoft, its just an irony that they are using Microsoft and its products. It rather sounds funny to me. MS deserves what they are today. So, Windows will win.

Acer is the cheapest laptop in my country - India. Though the price factor is quite satisfactory, Acer laptops as far as my knowledge is concerned, are not upto other brands like HP - Compaq, IBM, Samsung and others. They are usually very heavy, specially those with less than $1200USD price tag range. For laptop CPU should be intel pentium centrino which can withstand high temperature and prevent overheating of the system. However higher configuration of Acer laptop may be a good idea too. Mostly all those costly laptops or called it even notebooks are more or less the same from one brand to another; of course not to speak big brother Mac. I suggest you go for some other brands.

Netscape Is Back? The return of Netscape browser
Dragonfly replied to heavensounds's topic in Software
As you have rightly mentioned above. Now I will respond in two ways. I want to say that Netscape is unnecessary..hehe... it isn't an alternative to Internet Explorer. If one needs to have IE in the system as a compulsory measure, its funny. It cannot become an alternative to IE. Secondly, as you have mentioned again installation of Netscape not only ruins the internet Explorer but also the windows which emerges in Service pack 2. Therefore, installing Netscape only add to more problems than solving the problems. Therefore, why one should bother about Netscape when one can easily go for Firefox which is more or less the same as Netscape with more functions and with more stability? -
Trap 17 Banner well, hope you guys like it :)
Dragonfly replied to sonorama's topic in Web Hosting Support
Simple yet ellegant. YOu did well. I like the color combination. It looks bright and shines. Usually 468x60 standard banners are not quite bright like this. I specially like the left balls which is matching well with the rainbow at the right. And of course the text at the center looks good too. Overall its a well done work. I give you nine in the scale of ten. Thanks for the work. -
France rejects EU constitution when they finally think that it won't benefit them more than it would harm them. I think Frenchmen are a little greedy. They are the champion of freedom in the modern era and one can safely say that EU could be born with France leading the way in many ways. But today when they have to also sacrifice to many extend at the expenses of others they wouldn't compromise with the new constitution of EU. This shows how indifferent they have become. There is another opinion floating in the air. France fears that saying 'OUI' to the new constitution would be like agreeing Ango-saxon dominion in the EU. When France Prime Minister was interviewed in BBC a couple of days before the Referandum, he said that there is nothing like agreeing to the doctrine floated by the British. EU constitution is a compromise reached between as many as 25 EU states. If that is the case, why French didn't approve of the same? Besides 'Non' was almost 55%, in such case EU unity would remain a distant dream when Chindia (the rise of China and India is being termed as Chindia) is raising, threatening even US, EU must make damage control and unite as one body.

Its nice, not bad at all. The background color matches well with the wording that says Piercing Eternity. However you must put something in the corner or the edge so as to give a more professional look into the graphic. The end edge is a bit plain. But it will depend on the site where you are going to put this banner. Depending on the nature of the color in the site, it may well match as well. All the best.

Peace in complete sense isn't possible. Even when we say there is peace, its balanced peace, peace is maintained because from both the sides they are holding the buttons of nuclear bombs. This kind of peace is very delicate and can break easily anytime. Like rvalkass has rightly said one government in the world will never born and its not practicable as well. However, peace is possible with check and balance of power which is the only way.

In one of the popular web portals in India, one article reads like this, "Nokia latest phone is NO phone' simply because it has so many functions as mp3 player, camera, a sort of PDA, so on and so forth. I think Nokia will continue to dominate the phone market in the world. In fact, this Finland's pride company - Nokia was just a small village name until the phone company came into existence. However many people thought Nokia is from the USA. I like Nokia phones too. The latest version also shows its dominance in the same field.

Wow, the sigs look really professional. I could never imagine that Saint Michael is this good in graphics. Not only being good in using the softwares like photoshop or Photo Impact or any other softwares but one must have ideas on how those colors mixing would be made. I think the sigs are well matched with the colors he had used. I used to like red color mixed with black. These two color combination is nicely blended here. However, I have one wish for the very first one. Right and left corner also should have some wrap-up like structure like bottom and top in the edge so as to give a complete coverage of the sig by the cover-like structure. Well done St. Michael.

So, visit the site and get your need. All the best.

Dell laptops are good ones. Of course depending on the configurations and other things as well. But the price tag you've given here seems a little high for the kind of configuration you are talking here. Or otherwise you could have written down the Dell laptop Dell Inspiron 6000 D, I don't know how much is RAM and stuff.. Would you write down one by one? So that we can compare with others.

I have been using directnic dot com and their service is excellent. However this site looks impressive. But I find no reason for me to join this site at this juncture. What's the real use. In fact they need members.. In fact directnic dot com is providing a nice service all for free one doesn't have to register as well. Anyways thanks for the information.

Does Somebody Know Drupal? is it good or bad?
Dragonfly replied to webaurores's topic in Programming
To be frank I don't like Drupal very much, but consider this as a personal remarks not to be taken too strongly... In fact I have had experience of using most of the content management systems like php-nuke, postnuke, mambo, xoops, phpwebsite and others. When I installed all those cms I could learn by myself how to operate it. And they all seems quite reasonably easy to operate. However in the case of Drupal I found that it was not a common man's cms, it was quite complicated. I surfed and searched the forum - how to use the system and I struggled more than any other content management systems. Therefore, I have to conclude that Drupal is the most difficult cms to operate. Besides it doesn't have so much of choices when it comes to THEMES. Therefore, most of the drupal sites are more or less the same. About forum:Forum is one of the most important incredient of any content management systems. The forum in drupal doens't look impressive at all. Its just too plain with no graphics and its looks like a normal news page even for forum. I think the forum isn't looking very good.In this case, php-nuke, post and others including mambo, xoops are much better. My preferences is like this mambo, xoops, postnuke, phpwebsite and others. -
I'll give you 7/10. You must fill up your site though. As of now it looks great. But the only thing you need to do it fill up the entire page so that it will not look very blank in botttom as well as sides. However php-nuke puts me off. Why can't php-nuke allow users like mambo, xoops and others? Postnuke, and others? And for right and left menu texts should not touch the borderline, it doesn't look professional. Forum too looks quite messy unless you arrange properly.
