Peace of cake probably take 20 minutes max. I like your thinking I'll take another look! -
Would God Surf The Web? Simple answers please.No Attacks.
inverse_bloom replied to Spyke Jones's topic in Health & Fitness
God was on the web i was talking to him the other day, he said eat your porridge and brush your teeth and stuff... I have a really hard time believing in god as much as i would like too. -
I have to admit this the first time I've found a post that gives a candid evaluation of beginning in Linux. I suppose Newb's keep quite till they earn a little expertise on the subject. When i first introduced my self to Linux i installed an old red hat version on a Pentium 1, it installed OK but for the version i had it booted into the command prompt, all i wanted to do was get some GUI action happening and searching for the command to start it. Help didn't help, only from talking to other people did i discover "startx" was the ticket. Up to that point i tried xstart, start, start Linux, etc... then reinstalled windows.Equally if you don't have an internet connection at all, Linux can give you a very hard time. Please don't get me wrong there's a lot to Linux that rocks, but the linux community needs to continue their efforts on improving user friendliness. Dependency's in some Linux versions can just **** you off. After saying that also, Ubuntu is a step in the right direction.

Please don't get me wrong those questions i were raising before were intended to clarify and help, I'm not against the idea at all. Just a friendly reminder Rayzoredge try to avoid taking aboard "stragglers" much like anwii mentioned (I'm sure your fully aware). I think you have got the right stuff for it also.

We'll I've made my third and final major design revision and feeling comfortable with it. I don't think I'll spend any more time on improvements because I've got more pressing priorities to attend to. If anyone has more comments/criticism's they wish to make by all means go for it, all comments will help me in future, thankyou. -
How Much Time Do You Spend At Trap17?
inverse_bloom replied to The Simpleton's topic in General Discussion
Ranges a lot for me, today I've spent 2 hours today, sometimes it can be 3 hours or just 15 minutes. What struck me when i first signed up here a few months ago, was people were and are very open as part of this online community. In my own my mind i reason this as obviously something that has been fostered over time by Opaque, the mods, etc. (could be wrong). Sometimes its a relief to just to get an escape on Xisto (really is). Half the time i don't focus on obtaining my cents. If i see an opportunity for a joke I'll post and if it makes no one laugh it certainly makes me laugh, hopefully i don't push anyone's tolerance to the limit in that respect. -
I really liked need for speed underground and underground 2 as well, but after playing the same sort of free roaming style through each NFS title thereafter it really gets a bit tedious, despite how well refined it is becoming. That's why I revert back to NFS 4's non linear style sweeping tracks, just to get a change plus i like watching those high speed Autobahn type races on DVD, as silly as they are.

Can You Live Without Your Cell Phone For 24 Hours?
inverse_bloom replied to The Simpleton's topic in General Discussion
Actually i do that too gisellebebegirl, all the time! It's actually kinda funny trying to look inconspicuous behind a phone. Its like saying, "I'm normal, everything's cool, nothing to see here, bye bye now". I'm way too shy. The only thing i use my mobile for is a wake up alarm and for the time, the occasional call for business or emergency and of course the reason listed above. -
Hey that sounds good rayzoredge, i hope it works out for you. I'm just wondering is there a site (besides Ameriplanusa.com) that discloses financial/background information about the company. Although I live in another country and have other plans anyway, I ask because in the hypothetical situation that If i were to sign up, that would be the first bit of information I'd search for. Obviously Ameriplan is listed on NASDAQ perhaps you could include a couple of links?.How long has the company been established, 14-15 years?. I, like you am a very skeptical person, so I'd imagine you've done your background research to ensure you don't waste your time. Marketing and salesmanship mm..., i think if people "seriously" invest in it (and they have suitable personal attributes) they may very well get good income.Just wondering, do you compete with other Ameriplan providers in your local area for business?. Do you compete as team, or even at all? Hope this helps everyone.

A Site Ive Been Working On
inverse_bloom replied to inverse_bloom's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Na, your posts are valued m8, personally I value the fact that the trap is "open" to various opinions and personalities in whatever form they may be (makes for interesting conversation, but also a change from physical life. Well at least for me).Hey Nameless_ if you need any tips for site design in future ill be happy to give em, or better yet wait for some of my tuts to come through (I endeavor to make them as practical and well thought as possible and give exactly as advertised). Anyway, the tone within the overall composition (the colors) I'm still considering and may change, I'm kinda looking at some of the recent Adobe products particularly "Adobe Extension Manager" to get inspiration from (odd source i know). I'm still not happy with the arrangement of elements inside the main box, its too free floating and lacking a strong consistent gridded layout through out the site. Time to look through magazines for inspiration and translate those ideas to screen. I really need to make some more content to help though. Could take a couple of days. -
A Site Ive Been Working On
inverse_bloom replied to inverse_bloom's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Howdy partners, V2 just came of the production line and is ready for blast off...If people could kindly reset their cache (browsing history), so the new site shows up properly, that be great. Portfolio fixed, site validated, improved design, junk script code removed, widget x.... what is widget x you ask?.... who cares...I'm ready for another wave of hellfire, give it to me...Just kidding any comments are important to me. Time to hit the sack for today, getting late. By the way webishqiptar does the contact page look a little better? -
Which Was The First 3d Game You Ever Played?
inverse_bloom replied to The Simpleton's topic in Computer Gaming
I think the first game i played was doom, i think i was about 13 at the time... I actually still have memories playing it at that time. Only got 3 levels in because i would play it only on occasional visit to my cousins house. It had a great engrossing atmosphere. -
Actually dabbled in it about 13 years ago... I'm glad i didn't go further because I'm not sly enough for that game.

A Site Ive Been Working On
inverse_bloom replied to inverse_bloom's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Thanks everyone for your time in replying, the resolution issue is something that i thought would be brought up i just did'nt know how important it would be. I designed it for 800x600 screens upwards... actually after just checking over some web stats ive just confirmed that this is indeed very wrong. I actually prefer having a bit of free space on it (not as much as it is know), it changes the aesthetic enough to make it look individual, although i do endeavor to keep it as functional as possible. In response to rvalkass' post - that was a line of script i added after validation, no problems though only take 10 minutes max. The portfolio issue was something that was a definite weak point im glad you confirmed it, some reworking is in order. In response to nameless_ post - having HTML/CSS etc validated ensures you get better search engine ranking, although it isn't an exact science with no guaranteed results. I'm mainly focusing on having it "totally" validated so i can put up the "HTML/CSS validated..." for marketing purposes. In reponse to minimcmonkey's post - I know what your saying, ill have to think about that a bit. One aim i was hoping to achieve was strong typographical layout (kind of like a magazine) but i let it go while building the site. I reckon ill have to revisit that aspect. The layout you mentioned i thought about and continue too... I guess see what happens. (I want to get into flash later and wan't flow on from anything i have up now). -
Now This Is Scary! Bad news for cell phone users
inverse_bloom replied to sheepdog's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, you've got a good point there, thats another reason i keep it off. I dont like you bluetooth. -
Yeah i agree, at risk of sounding like a broken record im still open to talking... Things like this dont easily go away, you get some release by verbalizing it, but it always comes back (again im speaking from experience). You may enter the stage where you can't hide it so easily Gisellebebe, that makes everything a lot harder. People can only help you if you accept it, it doesnt have to be anyone on the trap, i just hope you begin feeling better...

Best Laptop Brand Which one?
inverse_bloom replied to brandonjbegle's topic in Science and Technology
I think any laptop with a track point is a good one (the dot in the middle of the keyboard you use to move the cursor about), it can seriously make you more productive using this rather than shifting between mouse and keyboard. IBM or (Lenovo) typically incorporate this into their "thinkpad" range so my personal preference will always be to purchase a thinkpad (intended for business) and spec up the graphics card on it (for business and play). Its not as shiny as say... a sony or a mac, but very practical.But also i get a heck a lot of use of my computer stuff and my R50 for instance doesnt complain one bit (touch wood). -
Now This Is Scary! Bad news for cell phone users
inverse_bloom replied to sheepdog's topic in General Discussion
Actually ive heard a very similar thing about bluetooth as rayzor edge just mentioned, i was never motivated to learn any further. You know as tech integrates in to our lives further i think we will have to personally increase our precautions to ensure we use tech without comprimising ourselves (leaving ourselves vulnerable). Im not saying we will become paranoid, but just increasingly more careful. For instance, i view bluetooth as a big security risk (i leave it disabled on all my stuff and use it only when needed). Yet there are many out there that blindly leave it on for the world to see and they just have no idea. Encryption will always help, but common sense and awareness of tech risks will be increasingly important. -
Yeah im also open to talking with you should you call upon it. Although we are communicating through the net, i really care about you and how you are feeling. I've had depression in various forms since i was young. If you want to talk (about anything no smiles necessary) please give me a message maybe we could talk more perhaps through facebook? Your choice. Your a nice girl gisellebebegirl, i want to help and im sure rob86 does too.

Welcome Alex. Good luck with your web hosting, looking forward to reading your comments on the forums.

Is It Good To Hairs If We Wash The Hairs From Cold Water
inverse_bloom replied to friendforever's topic in Health & Fitness
If your losing hair maybe you could consider sticky taping your hair back on your head. -
Any Porsche produced after the mid 80's would be my ultimate car to own, i also like the Nissan 180 SX. I appreciate the fact the Nissan 180 SX is a performance vehicle but they also get a lot of power from a smaller engine.

Gtr2's got really excellent realism involved in it, another game that is beginning to become a little old but is a goodie is "Grand Prix 4" its really fast and requires good reaction times and quick judgments. It reminds me of "Need for Speed 4" racing the Mclaren F1 on the tracks (very gripping experience to win a race).

Are Girls Prettier Without Makeup? Vote & Say You Thoughts
inverse_bloom replied to lihuyt's topic in Health & Fitness
Definitely without makeup, i find it especially attractive if they feel confident that they don't need it.
