I personally can't stand i-frames for 90% of the ways I see them used. I always feel like I'm looking at a website through a keyhole in a door. All that beautiful space around the page... and I get to only look at that teeny-tiny part of the page change... :rolleyes:I would have to agree with kaputnik on using a table though. Just wing the i-frame inside the table field, set the height and width of the frame to the same dimentions of the table field, and you should be good to go

Now while this does not prevent them from stealing the image in the first place, this may help prove they stole them. Check this tutorial out. Just simply replace the "hidden" image with your name or url repeated across most of the image, and if the "theif" does not realize what's going on and you find out... easy way to find out if they did in fact steal the picture or not

In photoshop:New document 400px X 100px1. hit "D" to reset to B&W2. Filter -> Render -> Clouds3. Filter -> Pixilate -> Mosaic (cell size 10)4. Filter -> Brush Strokes -> Accented Edges (default settings)5. Filter -> Distort -> Polar Coordinates (Polar to Rectangular)6. hit CTRL + F once7. hit CTRL + U (check colorize: Hue-210 Saturation-25 Lightness-0)8. Distort -> Wave (generators: 5, wavelength min:346 max: 509, amplitude min: 76 max: 570, type: sine, undefined areas: wrap around, rest default ~ randomize untill you get a good repeating wave)Then you can adjust brightness/contrast to find something you like. Change the hue in step 7 to get a different color, and modify the wave settings in step 8 to achieve something you like.Credit goes to someone on goodtutorials who wrote that. Looked for 20 minutes and couldn't find it. Post the link to his tut if you can find it

I always use a dark color on my background; usually black, dark grey, dark blues. I avoid reds as I just don't care for that much red in a design. From there, I build up, layering on progressivly lighter and lighter shades of blue, and stop brightening the design once I reach that level that every design gets to where you just go "I like that."On the whites/almost-whites. I don't feel they are any more professional than the rest of the pages design. No matter what, if your pages are just poorly laid out, it really does not matter what color your background is. As long as the pages are designed cleanly, and are easy on the eyes to read and navigate, you have achieved success.

I bought one, and I have to say, the system it's self is rather impressive, albeit nothing new. They basically packed a dumbed-down PS2 with extra features into a handheld.The screen is big and beautiful, but the entire face of the machine is just one big surface that collects visible fingerprints. A matte finish over every non-screen surface would have worked better.Don't buy the films that go over the screens. They are a waste of money, as they do not go on perfectly smooth; you end up with a multitude of small bubbles between the film and the screen, making the screen look dirty when it's on. After futtzing with one for 10 minutes, I finally gave up and took it back off.A much better option if you'd like to protect the screen would be getting the protector that pelican makes. It's all of about $10, and covers the entire face of the PSP (makes it a bit of a squeeze to get the unit back into it's soft-sided case however).Another thing that I'm none-too-pleased about is the extravagant cost of the memory "sticks". C'mon, $150 for the 1gig?! THOSE I'll wait on...Overall, I regret buying the system (the officer that stopped me the monday after I got the system provoked that), and recommend that you wait untill it falls into the $100-150 range before picking it up. Unless, of course, you just want the system and have the green to go

First it was April first (guess we were fools ). Then it was April 9th. Then the 13th. Now it's the 23rd... Makes one wonder what's taking them so long... afterall, isn't an atlas just a bunch of maps?

Good MMO (not free though) is Final Fantasy XI. If you want a challenging game, where things are not handed to you (gil, exp, etc.), and is centered around the party atmosphere, you'd have to go with FFXI
