  1. I don't sense any difference in the quality of different mice. I'm using a Dell one, corded, optical with scrolling wheel. As long as the mouse is optical, has enough keys, is wireless and quiet, I think it's perfect. Mine has a loud click but silent scroll.
  2. Yeah, I can't bellieve you thought what I thought too. I might like poetry if it wasn't given to me from my teacher. But I certainly would not analyze it. People have different perspectives, and you don't know that the author is thinking the way you think he/she is thinking. That is why the Universe cannot be defined as real, as we all look at it differently, but we're all wrong because it's what we interpret from it, not the real image. I'm getting off topic here and not making sense.
  3. Sorry, but I just can't stand poetry... I don't think that it's useless, I think that it has a purpose, and that is to irritate people who don't like it. People say that poetry is an art, which can be looked at at many different angles. Here's what my angle usually looks like.First, read the poem and find any rhymes at the end of the lines. If there are rhymes, that is a decent poem! If not... it sucks. Your teacher may say that the way the poet used this metaphor, simile or imagery is great. But is it possible that the poet just accidentally thought of it, wrote it down, but thought that it was bad? Then someone reads it in a different angle and thinks of a way to say that it's amazing. These twisted excuses usually requires some twisted thinking which in the end proves nothing. Teachers only force their students to think of ways to think that the poem is good by asking these questions: "Why did the author use this word instead of that one?" "Why did the author use this as a symbol?" "What did the word xxx actually mean the way the author use it?"Have you read those free verse poems? How can you write those? It's impossible to just write down what you're randomly thinking write now and call it a poem. That is, unless someone comes along and says, "Wow, this poem is beautiful! When you look at it this way, your mind gets stuffed with all these wonderful images and ideas!"Then, all you have to do is think of how bad the excuse you made up to appreciate the writing was, and think of the writing as a POEM. Then you'd think, whoa, I can't believe how bad poems can get... Anything can be a poem. Even the last sentence on my previous paragraph can get someone to think that I'm a great poet using imagery.Um... Sorry, I just had to write this post because I have recently read an essay on how to enjoy poetry. It was just too ridiculous to me that I had to write something against it.
  4. There's a tutorial here that teaches you how to add these favicons. You can read it here.
  5. Looks pretty nice. The uploading stuff thing is great. Sometimes the gray on blue text is a bit hard to read.Did you buy that domain?
  6. I tried that, but it didn't work. I found many sites that have almost the same code. Oh, cragllo, most of the codes on that site there don't work for firefox, even the ones that claim they do. OK, I got it now. I didn't know the form part of the code was vital, so I deleted it and it didn't work. Now it works. /merged
  7. Hmmm... I'm an Xisto user, actually. I even searched for such a topic, but I couldn't find it. I'll just wait for OpaQue to stumble upon this topic...
  8. I've tried Blender for about 5 minutes before, but it was unlike 3ds Max, so I gave up on learning how to use it... But, I think that it still can be learned after you mess around with it more. Did it come with tutorials or references?
  9. OpaQue, where did you get that JavaScript for the error 404 page for Xisto? It's something I've looked for for a long time! I 've tried before, but couldn't achieve the typing effect with JavaScript. I'd be very happy if you could tell me where you got it.
  10. I think uni.cc is a great dns service provider. It's easy to sign up, and you can get free dns service without ads! It's down right now though... But, good news! I just checked the site, and the "down" status seemed to have improved a bit, proving that the Webmaster is indeed trying to fix the site, or something... When it goes back up, if the service is still available, register for a domain! But, if it doesn't come back up, you can use one of the http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ 's domains, like http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ and more (found here). They require an ad, but the type is selectable. I don't quite like it though, I don't know why. But it's an alternative for getting your free short domain name.
  11. Heh... We did nothing for pi day, the math teacher just said happy pi day!, and then it was done. I think the 14th of March, 1592 should have been the greatest pi day. But it's the past... How about 14th of March, 2016? (3-14-16, pi rounded off)
  12. I do use headsets, but I put them on when I use the computer. I do chatting, which makes a sound when someone says something, so I can reply faster. Also, the storage containers add slows down the loading of the page for about 2 seconds, which freezes my computer. It's only a short time, but it's annoying...
  13. That game was pretty good... I usually get bored of games in 1 week, but that one I played for a whole month, then got bored... I guess it might be just kinda addictive...

    About Vbulletin

    Did you try to login with the 2nd login box again? It might work. I don't use vBulletin, though.
  15. Heh... I've made themes for Invision Boards before, so I've had the experience. And your tutorial led me to other tutorials that taught me how to theme it. I'm gonna make a really small link to my forum here.
  16. Yeah, but this helps too. It's not REALLY a tutorial, but it tells you what to do if you want to do something.Do you know PHP? If you do, it's really easy to make forms with it. Learn it and you can write even more customizable forms!
  17. Yay, I have created my foum with my own skin! Thanks, Trekkie! The forum looks Incredible!
  18. The games work on my laptop with the same version of MSN. On this computer, it doesn't work even if I set the Security Level to Low, allowing any ActiveX programs... I think I'm gonna tell the MSN techinicians...
  19. I don't really do textures now, because I'm making my movies with Flash. If I do textures, it'd be hard to render and import the movie into flash while keeping the file small. I also like high fps. Funny, it seems like people on this forum see fps and instantly think of First Person Shooter. I think of Frames Per Second instead.
  20. Oh... I would like to make a suggestion... I hate that "Do bulky storage set off an avalanche in your kitchen? Is finding the lid almost IMPOSSIBLE?" (Yeah, I've heard it so much that I remember the WHOLE thing... ) commercial. The paparazzi one with the camera sound and the fly one with the buzzing sound are annoying too. So, can we please not have those sound ads? Or do they pay a lot?
  21. Hmm... I see that you did decide to give her clothes... :DThis one looks much better than the first one, that one looked like a flat image, and this one is more realistic...This one also has all the elements blending together very well. The teeth doesn't look the fake. Good job!
  22. OK. I installed the forum on my site, and it looks SOOO much better than phpbb and invision. I'm gonna go configure it some more now.
  23. Eh... What happened with those 2 guys? Did they get arrested or something?
  24. Good tutorial. I think I'll try smf on my site with your instructions.I don't know if you got your extra hosting credits or not. All I did was approve your tutorial. NilsC or OpaQue, can you give him the hosting credits?
