  1. Those Menus are really great, always wanted to find something similar, but usually was lazy to search for something like that and now it just came to me I made menu's like that for myself, but looking much worse, more simple, had problems with display: block; and stuff. :PWell Done
  2. well, Computers weren't so big in the 1980-1985, for example zx spectrum or commodore, but they were for home market and hard drives like that - I don't know if they were used by home users, they really were very expensive, even the ordinary 20-60MB HDDs were really expensive to have.. (much more expensive than the whole computer) Furthermore, the reading and writing speed was really slow and the sound made by it was also not silent.. I had a 40 MB HDD in my Amiga 500, and also had an 400 MB HDD for Amiga 500+ but I was still using floppy disks, those were the days, file systems weren't so good as they are now and they were slow and usually messed up when electricity disappeared and appeared.Maybe those kind of storage were needed for NASA, which needed to store lots of graphics and information and etc. Games at those times did not take more than 1-2 floppy disks, if not counting the simulators on Silicon Graphics computers usually for the Army. A lot of whom used ROM to store information which you cannot delete or write, it was faster, or cartridges appeared to be useful too.
  3. This sounds great, I read a lot of topics that people want to have a delete button in their gmail account, but in my opinion of course it does not get deleted, it just is moved somewhere else. I think google is against deletion of content from their servers and that is even better.Anyway I was always using POP3 with an email client and it deleted the new got mail and I never needed a delete button in the webmail, but for people who are frequently using webmail it is good, as somewhere it was said, google is listening to their users.Seeing new features at gmail just makes me more happy, at last an email service which is really great, I use it for most of my stuff, but not for personal emails, I use my isp's server for personal email with ssl, I just feel more secure, which also make me more happy.
  4. Well, the files you are using has a different owner, that means php can't handle them, but it is a bit strange that you cannot open the files, what chmod you're having on the file ? for reading it is enough to have 644, but if you uploaded the files with cpanel or ftp client or through php, but using ftp functions, the owner is different, that means you cannot even chmod those files using php. If you did this when login with your cpanel and change the permissions with it to 777 so it would be readable and writable by everybody, maybe even cpanel file manager can do it.If that does not work, look what kind of permissions does the directory have where the data file is placed and where the script is being executed, for reading you need 755 and for writing into a file in the directory of which you're (php) not the owner needs 777 and check the directories before..You haven't done anything with safe mode through .htaccess ? :?
  5. You as a member can be deleted from this forum, but as I remember and saw.. all your posts will stay in the database, except it will be posted as anonymous or guest. And for the hosting account, you can do it your self as mentioned above
  6. did you read what I wrote ? you can't change anything on this code <input type="file" name="upload" size="50"> of course you can change the input tag, but it won't have effect on the file upload form (on opera, on ie it will change the background and border, on firefox only the background), on the text type you can do anything you desire, you have full control of it. And on different browsers, select, input type radio or checkbox looks different.. on IE hover over forms does not work. etc.
  7. Talking about CSS and Forms, FF, O and IE treats the CSS differently, try it your self, I were having a lot of problems about this that you do not have the full control of forms for your site using css, but I got used to it.. like the input type file, even the background and font can't be changed.. so on different layouts it might look strange..
  8. Well, I tried to register at the putfile.com but here is what it said to me when I pushed Register with all the information: Oh, well I think I will try something else, like http://www.gamefront.com/ I just registered and it works.
  9. I was using Nod32 Anti Virus and really liked it, it did not eat much resources, I had no problems with viruses and it did not annoy me with different messages and did not harm my system with unneeded stuff, as you said the virus database is up to date.. but after I reinstalled my system again, I moved to ClamWin Free Anti Virus, which has quite good virus engine with gui and also is up to date, it does not use many resources and does not annoy me, what is better, that it is free and you don't need to use shareware as nod32
  10. I can say some more tips for you windows users: if your drive is formated as NTFS and you do not use the search often on your system you can go to "My Computer" or whatever you call it and press left mouse button on the partition (c: d: e:) and remove the feature "Allow indexing Service to index this disk for fast file searching" and you'll get extra performance.. Another thing you can do, turn off the default sounds by windows, you can do it by going to Control Panel -> Sounds and Audio Devices choose the tab Sounds and change the sound scheme to No Sounds, I don't think it is needed at all. I personally bought 1 GB of DDR recently and just turned of my page file, I mean virtual memory and it increased the performance a lot, especially when you're using a lot of application at once.. virtual memory is really slow. As said above turn off/disable the services you do not need, I remember I search for google which are recommended to turn off and to leave, they keywords for tweaking windows xp.. you can find lots of tutorials about this issue. To edit your startup, you can go to Start -> Run and execute myconfig and do it manually, but be careful and don't do stupid things Also there is a good software available, it is called TweakXP, more about it here: http://tweaks.com/ Good Luck everyone, tweaking windows even might be fun
  11. I have taken the test and it worked for me quite well, I got the results. The questions were easy in my opinion and it really chosen the distro I thought it will choose for me well, here is my results:1) Kubuntu,2) Suse,3) Mapis,4) Debian.And as I understood, it said that Mandriva, Xandros, Linspire are good for me too, but I have chosen some options so that they failed to include for example, some of them are not free and does not have any application library.. I think I will continue to play with this and to pretend to be a beginner and a pro of Linux and see the results.
  12. Those signatures above look quite nice, I don't know what to say, I like them and as I am no major specialist in graphics, but I like them. The second one looks nicer for me personally
  13. I remember I was in some option where it let me renaming of the R Bin to what I wanted, but I could not think of anything better than that, so I left it.. but I do not really remember if it was somewhere on windows side or I installed some software which had this feature, without needing to edit the registry manually.

    Popup Blockers

    Well, if you want a really good thing to use, and don't want most of the ads, banners, popups and other stuff which might ruin your day, I am offering to use privoxy. You'll need time to configure and stuff, but it is worth it, you can know more about it here: http://www.privoxy.org/ I use it myself and it is really great it is more than an popup blocker, read through their homepage and what is best - it is free.
  15. Well, the comic explains a lot in a quite humour way, but that is the truth.. I used to discuss about different issues on war and Muslims and other places on various forums, but as matter of fact, I usually just ruined my nerves, especially if there is some "stupid" guy around or similar. Now I just like to feel neutral and avoid this kind of topics, same for religion topics. but it is interesting to read anyway..
  16. Use phpmyadmin to import export sql data ? because I think you're using the phpbb one ? just export with phpmyadmin your old database into a textfile and later improt it to the new one when you create it on your other place, use phpmyadmin and/or cpanel, cpanel can backup too.

  18. haahahaha, this one are really great, I can't stop laughing yet, I heard a lot of similar ones, but what about this kind of jokes, that they are so different and funny, and has some good truth
  19. Hello, and welcome to the forums, I think you will find it interesting here after you will get used to the community/people
  20. well, if you do not want to write one yourself, because I think you can't and not many here would want to write it for you in my opinion, go and download one and install, there are really a lot of different php gallery's, search google or hotscripts.. and if you will get an account here, you will have access to fantastico and from there you could install some galleries like: 4Images Gallery, Coppermine Photo Gallery and Gallery.. that is how they are called. Gallery homepage: http://galleryproject.org/ Coppermine Photo Gallery homepage: http://coppermine-gallery.net/ 4Images Gallery homepage: https://www.4homepages.de/ these are the more powerfull available on the "market" I remember I wrote a gallery script for myself with rating and comments and stuff, but never finished the control panel, was adding the pictures by editing some script source, I mean manually, but I dropped everything later.
  21. Ha, I don't like cheating, but it is a good idea, but what to do if you get caught ? or use a proxy for another account and if you get caught, you can say that he was your friend and wanted a domain too, but after a while he changed his mind and gave away all the points or better a brother, that is why he had the same IP address
  22. @ the empty calorie, you're dreaming, but your dream is quite nice.. and I won't like if apple dominates the market too No one wants "a computer which does not work" but people will still use it. It is best to have a market with a lot of OS'es where non of them dominate, but has a big concurrency market and they want that people would use their product instead of others, by lowering prizes and stuff, making it work great and faster and having a lot of more features, but of course it has a problem too, the companies will start cheating and manipulating that people would use their products by adding non standard features and it might get harder to port software from one OS to another, one OS will have a game other won't have and stuff, everything can happen, and besides what OS will we need to use in school on informatics lessons ? by taking exams ? or we will be able to choose ?
  23. Yea, he wants to create something like a web based panel for getting and sending email written in php, at least that is what I thought. but as he said, "he is writing a mail checker" well, what ever he is up to, he told the problem he has
  24. Today I registered there and posted for some time, i made 10 posts and earned 47 points, but I didn't look in what categories I was posting..as i understand it the max in a day you can get 100 points, so it is 95 posts for a free domain name, but only if you post where posts cost 10 points, well I am not in rush and it is quite nice there.
  25. My both friends are using this theme and they say they like it, I don't have anything against it, it looks good, much better than a lot of those xp themes. Of course it lowers the performance and stuff, but it is worth it, because the default windows xp theme is just ugly
