  1. I know a 12 year old at around 6ft 2"He is very tall now at the age of 17 about 6ft 6" don't think he'll grow much bigger. Although his whole family are tall. This definitely effects the height of people in families.
  2. Although Avast is free and also I may add AVG. They are good programs for virus defense. But there 2 major flaws are resource usage and internet usage. If you want to download AVG or Avast slow down your speed. Also when the programs do HDD scans the resource usage is very high.
  3. Damn, I was really trying to get the internet to do it oh well. Thanks for the help anyway, I guess now I can say I'm one step closer, I barely have any knowledge of PHP. One question though. How exactly would I work out the cost of the phone plans, because the data that is entered can be anything?
  4. Yes I do.Although alot of people say that it can lead to bone injury, or arthritis. I find this untrue. Many people just say this to scare people into not doing it. My father and his father,and so on did it. But they have no hand problems. I like to see some real answers.I wonder if anyone else in the forum knows of a type of injury related to cracking yourjoints?
  5. Yes people could Spam. Although the user can also be banned from the forums for spamming, I'm sure it is in the rules. Spamming is the worst thing you can do, posting all those unnecessary posts, brings nothing to the forum and gives you nothing at all. Also short messages that don't have quality in grammer or proper structure don't get full amount of MyCent's credit. So Nameless you must understand that Spamming can be controlled and there are consequences against it. I guess once they clean up the forum a bit then they can control features like this. +1 Yes I definitely agree on this. The graphics forum needs to be resurrected. I want to post my work just to get some response.
  6. I'm not really understanding you post correctly. If I'm correct your talking about Member to Member MyCent Transfer, this would be a good idea. Sort of like REP for people who bring things to the forum, that people like and can REP them. Like you said with competitions putting MyCents as a prize is indeed an excellent way of getting more traffic to the site. Although the site does get a decent amount of traffic its just the members aren't active enough. Also limiting the amount of transfers would be smart, this would be to avoid abuse of the feature. Then again the system of MyCent that is in place at the moment is fine for me, just more active members are needed and a prune of all the topics to get rid of outdated issues, post ,etc...BTW we need more themes on this forum :S
  7. Personally I think these addons are a waste of time. When i had internet that wasn't fast I used to experiment with all these speed boosters and speed addons but they never worked. Alot of them normally ask for money or just make it look fast by caching browser data in different ways. I usually look at colosing programs tthat use internet and then go onto Firefox or Internet explorer and browse, that's all you can really do. Or buy new internet.Then again I never really liked Opera's browser interface or features. I cannot go without AdBlock Plus and UsageMeter + all the features of Firefox
  8. All these signature images are top notch. Man you need to teach me ;)That must be hard to do though, how long would one of those take to make?Also damn my crow animation can't beat your talent lol
  9. Hmm, why hasn't there been any new posts. I wanted to enter one of the competitions lolI wander if it will open again.
  10. The signature is very nice, sort of small but doesn't ruin the image. The image is sorta emoish but the effect is done well. Althought the others in your current signature are very nice looking.
  11. To my understanding a proxy is a website that allows you to view another website through its code/or site. Normally you'd be connecting with a different IP and from different country. In which case you'd be using a proxy if you are blocked from a website, etc. A proxy acts as a filter for you to go to a website, such as Google. Hope I helped
  12. Would be very popular amongst alot of people. Although they'd need to think about the gameplay, design and costs. To compete with WoW they need to make it better. Since the beta release of Aion it looks very similar to WoW, this is why I don't like it. It needs to be original. So mabye a 1v1 fight thing sorta like Street Fighter but then built into a freeroam world MMORPG.
  13. I have the full Adobe CS4 Master Collection. So basically I have Adobe Photoshop CS4, Fireworks CS4
  14. I normally just use AdBlocker for Firefox and I dont get any annoying ads or virus warnings 0_o. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/
  15. Girls always look 'prettier' in their true stature. Without makeup is better because then we can see who the person really looks like. I have seen girls with makeup and it can look kind of sickening because of the amount they use. I've also seen the same girls without makeup and they look much better than when they had makeup on. I'd say that you'd only use makeup in small quantities only on special occasions and not everywhere you go.
  16. I have been assigned a task on PHP coding although I have no idea how to Code PHP, I'm hoping that you guys on Xisto can help me out . The task involves us having to create a Mobile Phone Plan estimator that consists of two webpages coded in PHP. One page consists of a form where data is entered, such as: Name Email Address Monthly Budget. Amount of money the person wants to spend per month on the phone bill Phone usage data such as Average Number of calls, and the average duration of all your calls. First Page Layout: Second Page Layout: Email Output: So yeah that is what is needed for the task. I'm looking for someone who can actually do this for me. I don't have much to offer, but I would respect you tenfold if you could do it for me.
  17. Truthfully I think that the only thing that effects browser speed is your connection to the internet. I don't see how an optimized browser can make the net go faster. That still doesn't put me off using Firefox. I like the new features and fixes/changes given to Firefox 3.5.2 [my current version]. Most of the skins and addons are compatible since version 3.0.x. I have never regretted using Firefox, I used to use Opera and Orca Browser. I also loved the response to the Firefox release date, Although I never knew that 3.5.x was coming out, I just got a notification of a version upgrade on the day it was released.
  18. Alot of people say that I have over 50 different ways of laughing, from really strange and wacky ones to ust plain annoying. This used to apply to me, well around 10 years ago when I didn't know manners. Only if the fart is silent then it can be blamed on someone else. And burping well, I win every burp competition... Used to apply to me. Used to go for a 10 km walk every Saturday and Sunday morning. Now I have put on weight and can't be bothered :S Only when I am home alone, this will then occur for hours at a time. But not when playing online games. I normally turn this into a competition. I rarely brush my teeth... Nice list, but most don't apply to me no more.
  19. Look into the POV GTS 250, its a very good card for a bargain price. It was benched ar doing Crysis [set max evrything + res] at around 35-40 frames.
  20. Finally someone who agrees with me. We need changes made. The site in my view is highly outdated, it's still good ~ no doubt ~ although there needs to be changes. Please Mods/Admins consider this... :?
  21. Sorta like you, eh. It's good to see that some of the forum is starting to get updated. Seems to be alot to do. I suggest pruning topics that are 1 year or older, and also the members. Also update the free hosting methods and deleting the old methods just so people don't get confused. Oh and we need a selection of forum themes That will keep things interesting. ARGH hope these changes are made.
  22. This sounds interesting. My only image of Karma is from the TV show "My Name Is Earl". LOL Basically it's like if you do bad things, then bad things will happen to you. Sorta like a eye for an eye.
  23. Lol beat you too it within seconds, I'm sorry . Don't worry there is no competition. May I add the more you earn the more hard it is to gain MyCent although if you keep your posts in quality standard then you'll have no trouble.
  24. Hi Socubeliveg, Welcome to Xisto! Hope you enjoy the current topics and you can bring your ideas to the table. Don't forget to look into the MyCent / Hosting system we have here.Also remember not to spam, it can get you banned. And read all the rules . Then you'll have no trouble navigating through Xisto.
  25. Well, best thing to do If she is talented in school and whatnot is to build her social skills. I see alot of children/teens that are very intelligent but they lack many social skills and don't joi any social activities or groups. I'm 17, I'm not smart or anything [well in computers... ] and I'm average with social stuff, but many kids around me mirror what is happening to your daughter. Remember to get involved with her in activities or things that she wants to do, keep some discipline but nothing extreme. Like set rules, and also consequences to those rules but never go overboard with punishment. I mean it shouldn't be called punishment, no smacking or physical or verbal abuse. Just try not to argue, reinforce the rules and keep her following them. If she lacks in school work later in life try to remind her that it is important to concentrate in school because you normally only go through with it once. If she is bored in school this is because manily of the work been too easy which then leads to the inevitable. Try to find a good school for her to go to.I guess that is it from me, hope my advice was good
