africa

Hi kevraid. Wlecome to the trap family.This is the best web community on the net and yeah..its about learning from each other and using that knowledge to succeed.Good luck mate and if you need any help, don't be afraid to ask.WELCOME!!

Thanks a lot..i needed this a lot!

I generally don't like fat people but just because someon is fat doesn't mean they're not beautiful!Look at Jordin Sparks, for example. To me she is fat and not overwight but still good looking.Being fat and ugly will limit your chances of finding true love for real.

In an African language called Shona you say...NdokudaChichewa, spoken in Malawi: Ndimakukonda!

I am Black and yes, i'll accept any day! i aint a racist nor do i consider race to be a barrier, any girl i fall in love with stands an equal chance of being my wife!!Love is all that counts...skin is nothing folks. its whats inside that counts!

These things do depend with the people guys. I am good looking but i do not think my looks play a pivotal role in my relationships.What i find that most people wat, especially girls is a bit of money on the side and they'll find something cute on you!If a babe loves you because of your looks, then she's a stupid girl. There is much more to a person than looks!!

Thanks for the help guys.I wanted to edit the logo section so that it doesn't repeat the banner which some are saying is looking rather nasty...what resolution should i use or is most common for a fixed as opposed to fluid width?Right now I set it at 1000px, i don't know if thats the standard.

Do you have any tips in gaining weight?I eat 3x a day, i also eat snacks after meal,
My meal would include at least 2cups of rice, then some fish, egg also meat, i eat also vegetables but i still dont gain weight.
Any comment about my situation, i really need to gain weight in order to be pleasant looking when i apply for a job.

you may consider lifting weights to turn the fat you may get into pur muscle!

https://stronglifts.com/ is one place you may want to check out.

Good luck and starting eating healthy foods.

Nice site....clean and nice..wowyou did a great job,mate!Loved the flash homepage...make usre you maintain the simplicity as you get to add more features (if you're going to)You may consider a gallery? Just a thought. i'd like it if you just put the links to the other pages just the same way.8/10~ from me.

Welcome this is one of the best communities on the net!I had disappeared for a while..now i'm back...its nice to see the community is still growing.

Hi,I recently started my website and i am thinking of attracting even more people to the community.I want to venture into video marketing using Youtube so i wanted your advice on how i can set up the channel and how to make the most of it.I am unable to make my own videos so I was wondering if its possible to collect those that have something in common (with my site) on youtube or other sites and then attract many people who will find the videos relevant to my site as well.I am looking forward to your advice on how this works exactly.Thanks

Football rocks (not american football)...
i would like to say somethings about football here.. first of all , why is it called football? it does not make sense since the game is played by hand, (except the fg) the main point is playing by hand.. the name makes no sense for the game...
2nd... it gets anooying because there are commercial breaks after each play... also its stupid because they stop after each play and it gets boring watching it for 3+ hours! The Red Flag cahllenges are stupid to.. waste of time.. Refs are human.. we all make mistakes... uf ur lucky u'll get ure call.. no need to use the damn technology to make the game better because it really doesnt, just makes the game even longer...

Last, it really sucks when you sit there and neither team can score a freakin TD the whole game

I like to watch physical sports they are more exciting...with all the fun and bruising..you really get emotional especially if its rugby or american football.

Its different when you are watching a slow sport with no actionto keep you on the edge of your seat but cricket rocks!!

i ma short and i actually think i'm done getting taller!my height is 1.69m..i'm a dude by the way is that cool?I am ok with the way i am and i even go out with taller and ounger babes! lol!don't worry mate...you'll get taller with age.

You guys should try out google chrome, Recently research's have done a browser speed test of all the popular web browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Opera IE 7, Safari)There was a graph I found but Can't find it so I will just tell you the results.
Here are the results:

1st. Safari

2nd. Chrome

3rd. Opera

4th Firefox

5th IE.

It seems that Firefox as gone down last year it was faster than Opera ohmy.gif

to me Firefox is best. Its got a good ecosystem of plugins plus is compliant with many technologies.

Google lost it by starting Chrome. Was expecting them to team up with FF and fight IE.

However,its good for the web overally. IE8 or gazelle....doesn't really matter the name, its a positive step if they are edting and improving on their previous work but they are miles behind FF!

Most often you will find you don't need so many dbs.

I ahve been running my site for about 3 months now and no problems so far!

Check it here...using phpbb3 which need mysql and php latest versions http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

Thanks a lot. I also decided to take part in 2011 as it gives me time to learn everything and hone my skills for the big break!Thanks a lot. I intend to combine with MySQL and Javascript.

I've read a couple but the one I found to be THE BEST is:

 

Web Database Application with PHP and MySQL, 2nd Edition

 

By David Lane, Hugh E. Williams

 

It a must-read for anyone starting from scratch!

Hi guys,I want to take part in the Goolge Summer of Code this year. I would like to know the skills required..PHP, Javascript?? I am currently learning PHP and will move on to other languages once I have a foundation.How long does it take for someone to understand a programming language then possibly start developing modules, etc) and then get accepted for Summer of Code?Thanks

Welcome. Have a great time.This is an amazing community!

Hi guys..

I am runing http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ and i am looking for icons 48px by 48px...for the following categories:

Rant and Rave : a section where people just go crazy
Debates Section

Lastly i need some icons for read and unread forum folders. I am looking for some african icons (that is icons with the african map) to use. like here: http://imptestrm.com/rg-erdr.php?_dnm=www.africatravelforum.com&_cfrg=1&_drid=as-drid-2300300503455222. They should be at most 35px by 35px.

Thanks a lot.

i don't think it is possible to destroy the web.So many people are into it that even by some miracle one is to find the key to destroying it, some people will just resurrect it again!And i have never heard of anything that can destroy it anyway..probably lots of spam on all websites so that people lose interest with it!

The logos for each forum section look good, but you're missing them for the last three sections. Try to find some logos that fit for those. If you can't then ask in the graphics section here at Xisto and I'm sure someone will take on the task of designing a couple of little icons for you.

Thanks...i am working on it. Been looking for the section where I can ask for graphics here at Xisto. Any help?

I've put some regular icons at the bottom before I get the ones that really fit the sections. Thanks a lot guys.

I'll do a full review on this since:

1. I used to have a non-paid job on a forum reviewing other forums

2. I may be buying another/renewing a domain, and this post could really help me out!

 

What I liked

The portal is very nice! There is a lot of color in it, which makes it look great. Many people tend to overdo portals by adding and adding, but yours doesn't have too much or too little. Your banner is very well made! It has a great logo, and I love the flags at the top. The FavIcon is another great addition, and goes well with your theme.

 

What I didn't like

The forum looks great with the icons off to the side, but why did you stop and not add some for the last three forums? I think it would make the forum look more complete if you were to add three more.

I didn't see a "Who's Online" or Statistics Center, did you just disable these for guests?

The theme! I forgot the name of the theme you use (I use SMF), but if I remember correct it is default. Change the colors, and it will look a lot less "Default". Or if you don't know how to/can't change the colors, change the new posts/old posts icons to maybe the African continent, in a different color for new posts? It will further "Africanize" your forum.

The term "gayism" in Debates forum. The correct term is homosexuality wink.gif

 

What I think could be improved

Rather then africahangout for the title of your index.php page, how about African Hangout? It would look much better capitalized.

As far as I can see, there isn't just a general chat board. I think this is the biggest thing you are missing, as usually this is where the most activity is in a forum.

 

I wish you good luck, as it looks like you spent a lot of time on your forum!

Oh thanks a lot mate!

 

I will address your issues asap! that really helped me lots!

 

I have had a few problems with the activity that why I had disabled the acticty stats mod. I intend to enable it soon...

 

Thanks a lot. I am on the hunt for some good icons to use at the bottom there. I will also add a general chat section as it makes sense.

 

I tried modifying the template a little bit by changing some fonts, etc. The icons...i'll look for them and put something that has a bit more african thing into them!

 

Thanks for the valuable review: willielwgg
