The website builder is not included with any of the plans. However, it can be added for $13.95 per year (paid with your myCENTS) to the Logic plan. Of course! You are welcome to spend your myCENTs on anything in the billing area. So, for example, you could get yourself a VPS if you earned enough myCENTs. You can get any of the hosting, and also domains, using your myCENTs. You can also choose a basic plan and then add to it before you order (increasing disk space or bandwidth, for example) if you can't quite find the package you like. Those packages cannot be used any more, and everyone has now been switched over to the new system. There is currently a competition to redesign the Xisto website, so when that is finished then those references to the old packages will be removed.

The generally accepted theory is that a teleporter would not actually transport the particles, but would copy their exact properties to some particles at the destination. That way, no actual matter is moved around, just information about it. Actually, you are currently represented by a wave. There is also a simple equation to work out your wavelength. Electrons are also waves, otherwise the atoms inside you would collapse at an incredible speed.

To quote OpaQue's explanation:

The Graphics Questions and Requests section would be the best place for it

Good Points The banner at the top looks excellent. You've got a clear and simple logo, and the flags work really well in the background like that. The design of the whole portal page is good. You've kept it clean and simple, so people can easily find the information they need, and the important stuff is all highlighted. The gallery is a nice feature, and should attract people to your site. It will also mean you might show up in image searches as well as text searches in the search engines, which is always good for bringing in new people Stuff to Work On The banner at the top, when the screen is shrunk down in width, can get cut off on the right. That causes the box with "The community..." to disappear off to the right. For people with smaller monitors, or who don't maximise their browser, they might never see that text box, or only see the letters down the left hand side. A similar problem occurs at high resolutions. The banner starts to repeat itself. On my screen resolution this looks odd, as it cuts off half way through the logo (getting the letters AH and half the globe). These could be fixed by editing the banner to move the text box to the left, so that it fits on a smaller resolution. Then, rather than repeating the same logo, perhaps repeat just the background (the flags on the blue background colour) so that the logo doesn't get cut off. I would also remove the --> from the Recent Topics section. The title of the topic being bold is enough to make it stand out, and the little --> doesn't seem to serve any purpose other than taking up space. 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.

Yes. The operating system on the server and the one on your PC are completely separate, so they don't need to match. A Windows PC will be able to communicate with a Linux server. Running Linux on the server just increases security, stability, flexibility, reliability, speed and reduces costs.

Why does this remind me of the Radium Dial Company? I know the radiation from this watch is far far less than that from a radium watch, it just seems odd that history has repeated itself like this Having a half life of around 12 years would mean that the brightness of the watch will decrease within the same sort of time scale. There will come a point when the dial is too dim to be of use when it's dark, and you'll have to buy a new watch. Also, what restrictions are there on throwing away tritium in household waste? I've no idea what the laws are, but there must be some restrictions on throwing that stuff away, just like there are on electronics and batteries.

I think they listened more to the EU antitrust lawsuit against them, rather than their customers, but at least they're listening to someone. Also, you can't actually 'get rid' of IE, just turn it off. The files remain on your PC, as they are still needed by other applications, but it will appear to the user that it no longer exists. You know how browsers on Windows are obsessed with asking you to set them as the default? Now, when Firefox (for example) asks if you want Firefox to be the default browser, it might be able to turn IE off when it does so. A lot of people will then just use their new browser, because they won't be able to find IE. Whether that is the right thing to do, however, (or whether it would actually happen) is another matter.

The problem is not with the Linux distributions, but with the game manufacturers. The vast majority flatly refuse to write games for Linux, despite the fact there are a few games writers that make their games work. Some are even now making their games specifically not work under WINE for absolutely no good reason. They also refuse to release their code to Linux developers outside their own company because they don't want to reveal their code. There are examples of games, such as Warzone2100, that show it is not hard to make a game run on Linux. You only listed one, relevant only to gamers. What are these "many more ups"? Could not have put it better myself

If that is the case then you can keep asking to talk to their technical team, and keep working your way up the chain until you get someone who can give you an answer. You might even be able to get through to someone related to development who could help you out with why the software won't run with WINE. Both GNUCash and KMyMoney have come on leaps and bounds recently. I currently use both of them: KMyMoney for my personal finances and GNUCash for my web design business's accounts. I would say that they are suited for the tasks I am using them for. KMyMoney is much more personal, while GNUCash features advanced things not required by a home user, and business-specific features. The cost of retraining is always an issue for the people who have to consider such a switch, but you have to also consider that all upgrades and future editions of the software are free. Your OS is free, your software free, and you are also more able to talk to the developers of the software if there is a feature you want or something that you want changed in the GUI for example, which is something most large software companies don't offer. The money saved from a future of software licenses usually easily offsets the one-off cost of retraining, with money to spare in all future years. Rather than this going into a pro/anti Linux discussion (perhaps another topic...) the simple answer is that WINE doesn't emulate the firewall, so the only option is to contact Peachtree/Sage and the WINE community to see if help can be offered. I have found that older versions of their software worked under WINE with no problems, so it might just be a small problem that can easily be solved.

I presume it is using some odd way of testing firewall settings that WINE doesn't use in the same way as Windows. I'd contact the creators of the accounting software for more help, and to inquire about a Linux version - if people never ask, they won't know there is a demand. Contacting the WINE developers, or reporting your experiences to the community, could help progress on getting it working, although it may take a while.Your other alternative is to use some other accounting software. There are plenty of free double-entry accounting applications for Linux that run natively and work just fine.

It seems to be affecting everyone (well, at least me and everyone else I have spoken to). It's making the pages load slow, the shoutbox have some odd quirks and occasionally timing out. I'm sure people are working to get it fixed as soon as possible.

I've got a few designs. This is the first one I've converted from pen and paper to the computer.It still needs tweaking, but I thought I'd throw this out there to get some other people entering. I'll also look at getting my other designs onto the computer once I rescue them and repair the ceiling in my flat

Domains, as far as I know, cannot be refunded. Once a domain is bought, it is yours for the length of the registration. There is no possibility of a refund on the cost of registering it, so refunds cannot be offered by any domain registrars, not just Xisto.

To make it work for any width, and expand with the user's browser, you'll need to split your TV image into at least three parts: Left side Central repeating section Right side The left and right side will be fixed to the left and right sides of the window. The gap between them is filled with a repeating central 'stripe' that gets automatically repeated horizontally. To make it fill the whole page would be slightly more complicated, but entirely possible.

You have some controls for this in your cPanel. Next time you get in to it, go to the IP Deny Manager and block the IP he's using. If he uses a range, block that. Just be careful you don't block yourself I also believe Xisto would have methods to detect and stop DDoS and DoS attacks - it's not in a host's best interests to serve millions of requests like that.

It isn't. Consider the number of portable devices that now support a fully-featured web browser (rather than just WAP). Consider anyone with a computer more than a couple of years old. People using business PCs at work. You shouldn't really design your website for a fixed screen resolution. Anyone with a smaller resolution will be forced to scroll horizontally to see your page, which will just make them find somewhere else to spend their time.

I believe you can, yes. Everyone is now on the same system, so you should be able to transfer to a 'higher' package, as long as you have some way to pay for it (PayPal, myCENTs, credit card, whatever). Your files, databases, email accounts, etc. should also remain OK when you get upgraded.To upgrade I would send a ticket out asking for more information, and confirmation that all your data stays intact when you upgrade.

Yes. On three separate blogs. Each one has a different set of plugins, and they all worked fine to install and upgrade them automatically. They also all upgrade Wordpress automatically with no trouble. It would seem the problem is not with Wordpress but with your settings in some way. Try changing the FTP hostname to just creativeriots.com and see if that works. The instructions Wordpress provide to do an upgrade ensure that you keep your settings. Nothing in the database is wiped, and there is a list of files and folders that you should not replace with new versions (this list is in the readme file I believe).

A good idea. As you go, post your designs up here on Xisto so we can give you help, pointers and advice on how you're doing. Learning from your mistakes is good, but one warning: don't get frustrated with it You'll often find weird little bugs that mean your site doesn't quite appear how you want it to. Don't get frustrated with them, but calmly look for a solution or ask for help - otherwise, you will rapidly get annoyed and give up with it. It allows you to manipulate the elements on the page, changing your static HTML into something that can change depending on user actions, variables or anything else. For example, you can use it to dynamically change the styles of a page depending on the time of day. You can also use it to move elements around on the page, giving you access to animations for things like menus, or anything else you can think of. It can be used for dynamically checking data in a form to make sure it is OK before submitting it. There are millions of uses for it, and you'll find plenty of examples all over the web of the sorts of uses people have put it to.

Actionscript is only useful within Flash, but its syntax and style is pretty much identical to JavaScript. Take a look at learning some JavaScript. This will work well as you try to learn Actionscript as well, especially if you are new to programming.If you generally just want to design something good looking then take a look at one of the many JavaScript libraries like jQuery and script.aculo.us which allow you to add some nice JavaScript functionality to your sites very easily.Like there are rules for print design about accessibility and compatibility, the same applies to the web. For example, in print design you need to make sure colours contrast enough that people can actually read them (especially people who are colourblind or have poor eyesight). The same applies to the web - there are guidelines and standards you should follow if you want your website to work across as many PCs as possible and can be seen by as many people as possible.

You have two main choices: FTP or cPanel's File Manager. You are given FTP access to your account, along with the ability to create FTP accounts, etc. All you need is an FTP client and you can simply drag and drop files to your web hosting. The other option is the file manager in cPanel. The cPanel with your hosting has a fully featured and easy to use file manager that works in your web browser, so you can browse your files, upload them, etc. This depends on which configuration you get. The more space and bandwidth you want, the more myCENTs you spend for it. The minimum space is 1GB and bandwidth is 10GB, and you can build it up from there to fit your needs. An embedded YouTube video doesn't use any space at all, as all the content is hosted by YouTube. The images should be fine. Each image, if at full resolution, would be about 1MB, so you could have about 1000 on your hosting with no problem. Save them at a smaller resolution and you can fit even more of them on your hosting.

Linux, Windows and Apple are all at the same level of complexity on the desktop, so that should not be an issue. If you are a gamer then you'll need to look at which games will run on which operating systems. Many games work on Windows, some have Apple versions and most work through WINE on Linux. So, let's cut it down. Apple is out of the question as you don't have a Mac. It becomes a choice between Windows and Linux. With Windows, especially Vista and newer, you'll need a lot of resources to run it along with games on top at reasonable speeds. At least 4GB of RAM, a 64-bit processor and a new graphics card will all be required. You may also find in the future that you'll need to keep buying new versions of Windows as they come out, as some games will work only with the latest Windows version. Linux is fast on pretty much any hardware, and the graphics chip vendors are now producing up-to-date drivers for Linux. Just check out the WINE AppsDB to see if your games will run. If they will, go ahead and run Linux.

Is this a client/server based network, or a network of ordinary desktop PCs? What OS are you running - Linux? Apple OS? Windows? Without this information it's kinda tricky to offer any advice.

Most routers have a summary/status page in their admin panel that shows whether they are currently connected or not. Take a look at that page and see if you are actually connected to the Internet. It might also give you an error code or tell you what the problem is, if there is a problem.If the router is not connected to the Internet then the best thing to do is to either click the button in the admin panel to reconnect, or pull the cable out of the wall and plug it back in again, and it should reconnect automatically.If the router is connected, then the problem may well be with your ISP. You'll need to give them a call to see if there are any problems on their end, or if they can detect anything wrong between them and your router.
