  • I only got 34 out of 45 :[ It didn't help that some of them were things I've seen faked before and some of the images looked faked on my screen as I've been playing with the settings. I wasn't surprised that the transparent toilet one was real as w…
  • Erm, could people please stop posting in old and no longer relevent topics please... Also, I have no idea what that means either DX, but since he appears to be posting from Nibelheim, which is a fictional location in the Squaresoft \ Square-Enix PSO…
  • This could be done with sessions. Basically, you'd use whatever language you're using to create sessions to hold the data from the form and then you could just pull the data from the sessions when you need it, meaning it could be placed back into th…
  • (Quote) Thank you for posting your opinion. I'm sure the many Google users will take this into account the next time they are wondering which search engine to use to find what they need to. If MSN is so good, then why is Google still growing, and w…
  • You know, when the .com boom was happening, the internet was owned by the big shots, but the developers were thought of as either utter nerds or gods. When the bubble burst, the view of webmasters and designers generally fell, and many didn't bother…
  • A part of Asia that, like South Korea, has home internet at over 100Meg and robot building & gaming as national sports (though a country that's not divided into two with one half having an insane and incredibly short communist dictator like Kin …
  • Sorry to rain on you're party, but HTML isn't a scripting language. HTML, XHTML, XML and so on are markup languages, which is why you can't build full blown apps with them. PHP, ASP, Perl and so on are server side scripting languages, which interact…
  • Another thing is that sometimes, those idea's can be overly complex when generally, they don't need to be. I've seen people trying to carry out a simple task with some really large blocks of code which you don't really need as you could do the same …
  • As I said, this is why we have a Computer Talk forum. Not only would OS specific forums mean the creation of many different forums (yes, Linux and Unix are different animals and questions related to BSD Unix don't always apply to OS X, even though i…
  • (Quote) Microsoft didn't invent: The computer The operating system (Bill worked with Apple before Windows was born, and Apple OS isn't the oldest either). The GUI \ desktop (Apple and Microsoft borrowed this idea from Xerox, but Apple got it going …
  • Guess what, this is a web dev and design forum, so technically, we don't need any OS specific categories. The only thing we'd need to cover is server setup and managment, which isn't one specific OS on one set of hardware as there's homebrew servers…
  • Good to see you're still floating about Python. How's Citizen City going? I didn't know you had any other sites as I thought you sold them all apart from Tutorial Dash (which you recently sold). Well, there's little chance of me beating you any time…
  • MySpace made it's money through doing things other services don't. The problem here is that other services don't do those things because they are generally considered bad idea's to anyone who's got a knowledge of how the internet and dynamic sites w…
  • In time, even Python shall fall. He's kind of vanished recently after selling Tutorial Dash, and he hasn't been active here since he sold it to you.
  • To a degree, there is some truth to that statement, but really, it's nothing that can't be fixed. Google Video had the same issue, but nobody bothered them (despite being a smaller service, Google provides a rather substantial target). With Google'…
  • Usually, you'd use a "spinner". Basically, it's like the throbber design seen in Firefox, so it's a ring of dots that spins (one dot is lit up while the others are grey). You show this so that the user knows there's some activity and doesn…
  • Pre-paid renewal also has it's pitfalls. There's nothing to say that your site won't go down within the timeframe you choose, and there's nothing to say that you won't fall foul of other site damaging events such as ISP implosion, hacking, imprisonm…
  • Basically, this is auto renewal or domain renewal. Basically, you're paying for a number of years at once and your registrar is making sure they can renew the domain every year until your service time ends. Sites like Simply (Namesco) offer this sor…
  • The article was published in a free UK newspaper called Metro, so posting it up on here wouldn't be possible. Searching is only one portion of Google's range these days. Google's services include rich text editors, blogging, news, price comparisons…
  • I'm antisocial, I have a speach problem, I'm short, I have a nervous problem (I have a low blood sugar level, so I shake if I don't eat for any period of time), I wear glasses and don't generally worry about how I look (though most of my cloths are …
  • Sorry to double post, but I found out some more stuff about this today. Indeed, newspaper reports say that Google has offered something in the region of ?800million for YouTube, which is a lot more in dollars. YouTube would benefit from this as, rep…
  • (Quote) Not always true. Most modern Linux distro's are targeted at both server and desktop users and have access to some kind of repository, making software installation much easier than under Windows. For example, Ubuntu has repositories and comes…
  • (Quote) Oh dear lord... I never used a BBC, but my first run-in's with programming were with BASIC under DOS on a system that was so awful that the clock had to be set every time it was turned on as the internal battery that keeps it going was buste…

  • Speaking of MySpace, this is my current desktop wallpaper: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikegee/243632441/ :D
  • You're all necroposting :D By the way: 1x small island: ?3m 1x big house on island: ?1m (considering that my aunts last house in England was about ?500k and was big with a huge garden and some nice things like remote controled gates) Mac Pro (fully…
  • YouTube is just easier to use than Google Video. This is mainly down to YouTube having the better layout while Google Video has the main movie stream and a side menu for getting to other content. The problem is that Google Video throws everything in…
  • If it's true (YouTube has denied rumours of possible sales to other media companies), it would be a good move for both companies as YouTube would gain the money and technological power from Google while Google would gain that which they have been tr…
  • Felix told me about this place and since I was looking for some more forums to join, I signed up. I also have accounts on some other forums Felix uses such as Programming Designs, but I pretty much never use that one. Most of the communities I use …
  • Powweb, a service I've used in the past offers free domains on their annual and 2 year plans (the domain offer lasts as long as the plan, so one year or two) and their yearly plan works out at $7.77 a month. Their shorter plan (3 months) is a bit o…
