crepusculart

Welcome here ! I'm quite new here also and as you, I'm really greatful I found this forum. I really like the concept and I hope I'll be here for a long time.

ah ah sorry about the name ! I wasn't thinking about english people pronouncing it. For the explaination, I'm french and "crepuscule" means something in french ! Actually, it's the french equivalent for "dawn". You have now learn a new word . To pronounce it, hmmm, how can I explain you that ? I can't actually . But hell yeah, I didn't think that it would be a hard thing for you to pronounce. It's making me laugh now ! About alex, I think your name is harder for me to understand, maybe because it's a coder stuff . I keep my crepuscule, you keep your name. I hope I'll be able to reach the 250 credits for the free domain, but I don't know how much it can take... We'll see.Anyway, thanks all for the kind welcome. I'll try to do my best over here and not write too many mistakes in English...

It's a very interesting feature and I'm sure it will push people to post more and interesting posts. I firstly registered for the ultra cool free web hosting feature, but now you're even offering free domain ! It's a great idea and it makes me wanna post more to get there but yeah it's still a long way for me. Anyway, I would like to thank the staff of trap for the great service and I hope this service will still be up when I get the 280 credits. Keep up the good work !

Thanks for the objective review as you said. I was just pointed out to this free web hosting service. I said that I wasn't that good about doing reviews and plus, they aren't even that coherent about the amount of space and bw for free accounts... On the home page, they say 20gb space and 300gb bw but when you click on plans, there aren't the same features... Kind of weird because in your account, after registering, you get the 20gb and 300gb stuffs... We would need someone to fill the whole space to see which one is true.

I like the bands that are already mentioned above but I must say that I prefer symphonic metal bands like Nightwish (the old one by the way...), Within Temptation, and some others that I'm used to listening often.

I said in another thread that I was not going to switch from XP to Vista. Indeed, to me, Vista is not yet really "done" and XP is still much more powerful ! And yeah, when I heard that, I was quite shocked about it. Here in France, you can still chose between XP and Vista but people tend to get Vista easily... Maybe because they don't really know that XP is better. It's quite logical to me since "normally", when another version of a software is released, it's meant to be better. To me, that's not actually the case with Vista... I hope they will finally change their minds about that...

I've never switched to Vista. I mean, XP has really much more power (until now) but maybe Vista will get better. Anyway, I've seen and used Vista on someone else's computer. Indeed it looks cuter with the default settings but after, it gets messy when you use it and not only look at the screen ! Anyway, I will wait until some important softwares get updated to run on Vista... which is not actually true for some programs. For the time being, I'm letting my XP running on my computer. It's already a good thing having it running without problems !By the way, if I remember well, I've heard something about Windows wanting to only release Vista on new computers... i don't remember the date they were talking about but I think that it was something about summer. Actually I'm too lazy to even go googling about that but you surely can have more details easily on the net.

Indeed Vector softwares are better to design logos. But still, if you do it in very good resolution in Photoshop, it can be good. But I still think Illustrator would be better for that. I'm using Photoshop for quite a long time now and I mostly use it for photomanipulation. It's actually why I'm looking for a free web hosting service, to build up my portfolio online because I only have a deviantart account till now. I think that it's better to have your own site when you're doing that. Maybe I'll try it someday... Thanks for the link anyway.

I love adsense ! Indeed they notice everything you do with this program but it's really interesting to be able to customize the ads with colors, width, height. And there ads are related to your site, which is better for everyone. Something to always have on a site.

I'll put myself in the link exchange as soon as I get my account. And i'll surely link trap back directly as wellbecause I love the concept of trap and I think you deserve the back link.

Thanks a lot for this information ! I was completely worried about knowing if trap had it enabled or not... Good thing to know . Trap is more and more interesting to me and I'm sure I won't be able to look at any other free web hosting for a long time. I'm grateful I found trap !

Hi everyone. I just searched if someone has posted a review about hostsnake but it seems that no one did. So here I am. Before getting here (and even before knowing about trap), I was hosted by hostsnake.com. The features for the free hosting are : - no ads (interesting) - 5gb of space and 10gb bandwidth - PHP and 5 mySQL databases - one ftp account - your subdomain will look like http://username.hostsnake.com/ Anyway, I removed my site from there because .htaccess files aren't allowed. Moreover, the function mail was disabled, so your site can't send mails. I won't mark this free web hosting because I don't want to judge it, but anyway I think it's quite a good one in the wide ocean of free web hosting...

I agree. If you can't do anything for the design part and for the coding as well, you can try CMS. You'll always have to go into the code for some little things. Really, give a try to CMS like Joomla or Wordpress (for more bloggy look and features). And then you will find lots of themes and templates that will be easier to modify. But, about the marketing thing, it's a common thing to me. I've never been in those kinds of requests since I do everything myself and for free ! No, truly, try to ask people around you to help you with your site. I try never to rely on "commercial" things. I've been helping a local american football club to develop their site, get it search engine friendly and such. But now, they have it running without my help and they are using Joomla. Maybe it's my own point of view but when I'm designing or developping a website for someone, I always try to make it "admin friendly" for those who will have the hard task to keep it going... by the way, sorry for my long rambling, but I think that you should really try using a CMS for a start. Good luck to you.

You know sites like that exist ?! I've seen some but exactly as you said, I didn't get back there...

I have already seen these changes in settings a lot of times on the net. And also in this forum... Everyone seems to want us to change that. Anyway, I dodn't know about the fasterfox plugin but I won't try it since my connection speed is already good to me.
