Um.. your set to private, so only friends can see it.

Im planning on using Exponent cms here when I get my account going. Ive searched the forum and found a few references, and I see a few are using it. I was wondering how well it works on this server, and were there any problems with the installation? I chose this cms because its sooo easy to use, and I'm very new to coding.

I think "an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth" is the best way to look at this.If you murder some one, not just manslaughter, but knowledge of forethought, then you should be executed.Same goes for rape, but unfortunately we as human beings, can not use a heinous crime to punish another one.I do believe the current way of dealing with it is useless, I think castration would be a much better way to go, but again this would have to be with knowledge of forethought, and not for mental defect, because this might not actually solve anything.You also have to take into account why the person committed rape, if it was just for the sexual thrill, then by all means "cut em off".No three strikes and your out.If you take away the thing, or things in this case that are causing someone to offend then you have a good chance of stopping it from happening again.Castration used to be a regular thing, I'm not sure why people react so negatively to it.You don't have to have sex organs to be a human, just a soul.

No Im fine not knowing.Its bad enough knowing that eventually you will die. Knowing when would proably drive me crazy, Id probably go out and do all the stuf I was afraid to do, heck who knows I might just wind up getting myself killed be fore its time.Not to mention what would happen after I died, Id be worried about going to hell, where Id be burried, who would get my stuff, how to take care of my loved ones.See its already driving me crazy.

Thanks for the tut.I was just looking at this, and you know this would be a great way to to do a menu, or a navagation.

This is my first starting post so I thought I'd make it something good. The Eye of Newt was made a while back using Swish, and Gimp. The shrinking iris is made by having a .png with a transparency fade out, then fade back in over another. I used about 3 different layers, and alternated between them. This was made back when I first started using Gimp, and I really wasn't happy with the border/ eyelid thing, ill eventually update it with something more organic. Yes I know I forgot to put in an r in the on click event. lol any ways comments are welcome.

Perhaps shes doing a movie about Sinead O'Connor?Or may be she's just trying to reinvent herself, I saw the pics with her and Paris, and they really werent very sexy, if you know what I mean.Obviously the thing with Paris was a publicity stunt, but this is a little different, she looks quite depressed, or on something.

I tried this a long time ago, and yes it is ad ware, but no it wasn't spy ware.Basically its a pyramid theme , you don't really make any good money unless you get others to join under you.I really don't suggest getting into this, the bar is horrid, and the adds twice as bad, half the time it will error out anyways.Like I said that was a long time ago, if you tried it on Ie7 I dunno what might happen, but I wouldn't be surprised if Bill Gates didn't reach out of the monitor and slap you in the face.

You should try Vagrant Story, its a little "rpg", with a little "hack and slash".Its made for the Ps1, but with the smoothing turned on it looks very good. It came out right before the Ps2, so I have a feeling they planned it that way.The story line is great, along with the character depth, and the monsters are some of the best I've seen.There's also a lot of customization you can do on weapons armor, etc, plus tons of magic spells, and hidden things.The action system is a lot like Parasite Eve, if you've ever played it before, so its really not like regular hack and slash.I really love this game I just wish they would make another like it.

Yeah 7 wins hands down.I think 8 comes next, then 10. 11 was just a bad idea, and 12 well my Ps2 is down so Ill have to wait on that, but its killing me.Oh one thing you didnt put into the poll was Tactics, not the Game Boy one, but the Ps1.I would put it right after 8.Nine was decent, but honestly I just didnt get it, kinda like X-2, no real story line.Then I would put 10 right after FFTactics, "Woah!!" factor was great when you finally beat the 9999 limit, but by the time you got there you were so "ubber" powerfull it just got boring. I think I beat the final boss with one hit.

My first was the Odyssey... tells ya how old I am.I cant even remember the names of the cartidges, but I had a space command type, a racing game, and another knock off they did of Asteroids.Get this every now and then when you turned the system on, it wold say "MELECT GAME"Good times.......

Heh Thanks guys, I think I do have a few tuts, all-tho they are in flash, I was thinking of changing them to more forum friendly. Speaking of forums, another thing I like about this one is the layout, I love how recent posts are displayed.

Where? Are you talking about professional sites that resell them, or more of the same type of forum in the link? If you know any pr sites, please let me know. btw Do you just do custom work, or just make generic types? thanks newt

Scribus is good but I believe its Linux only, Openoffice is alot like that, but office oriented. lol Speaking of opensource Inkscape is a great vector program, and yes I wouldnt limit stuff to svg's. Another great program is The Gimp as good as ps imho. As far as dpi goes, Id say about 150, but it depends on your image sizes, and dimensions. If your wondering about file types for your publications, Id go with pdf, just about everybody has the reader, and they print oh so nicely.

Nice tutIts been a while since I did anything with Gamemaker, I was upset when it went to registed.It really is a nice platform tho, you can do quite a lot just by using the GUI, and the code is really simple.In fact all you have to do to make a gml file is open notepad, wright your code and name the file yourname.gml.It will read the file even though it was made in notepad.Like I said I haven't used Gamemaker in a while so that may have changed, but I doubt it.Just curious, have they fixed the alpha transparency bug?The old one would only use transparencies if they were 100% opaque.Thanksnewt

@AkimiYou mean a client or a patcher?Either way if your new to it your better off just using ro's patcher, and a "custom" client.Any way, I just found this thread, and its freaking me out, I spent hours on all the different version's site's, Athena, athena, or what ever, looking for how to set up your own server, and all of them suck, they put the information all over the place, its almost like they don't want you to make a server.So that being said I gave up and found a nice private server. It was great! It had everything 4 slots, rates were about 80/80 80/, and max level was about 400.It really is a fun game, and very addictive, I spent so much time there I eventually became a gm.... and that's when the fun ended.Every time I went on I started getting pms, and requests for items, its really maddening, you have the power of a god, but you lose it if you decide to smash the ants, crawling up your leg.Eventually I just got so tired of it I decided to quit entirely, infact thats probably the only reason Im here right now :Pany ways if any body need to know about the gm stuff let me know, that is the commands, not the installation.

HelloJust registered, logged on, and I gotta say this is an interesting forum.I figured it would be just "geek squad" stuff, but theres tons more.I dont know where to start. Bloggers must love this place.Any way Im from Nc, into computers, (of course) and graphics, in particular I use The Gimp, so hi to any Gimpers.
