Wait until tomorrow when the limit resets. PS, no warez - read the guidelines. 2 closed topics in a row. giggity..

It is up to Steve to email his customers and post news on his website...

What do you prefer? Why do you prefer it? What do you think of the others? Why are you asking?

Eclipse I think decompiles. Good for general developing java too.

Gallery is back up, hopefully that'll have solved the problems people were having before, if not let me know

80kb per signature + 30kb avatar x 10 posts (underestimation - I have 40 posts I think) per page would be.... over 1mb download per page just in avatars and signatures, plus forum graphics and other HTML = not good for people on 512 broadband, let alone modem users. Plus bandwidth and having to moderate people's signatures even more so than we already have to. More hassle than its worth just for an image which most people will skip over once they've seen it once anyway. Prob replied a bit too harshly, sorry, pretty tired

You can thank Danny, he's been slaving away for the past few hours (and weeks on the skin!). And Alexx for the design I've just been sitting here looking pretty - not that anyone can see me. Profile screen and Members page are the main updates I think. Updated gallery should be with us tomorrow (dont get your hopes up thought cos its still gonna be pretty pants )

Firefox google thing page for me

Yep Been looking for years for a sub but never get round to actually getting one. Waiting for the right Yamaha one to come up on ebay £300 will get you a lot of sub.

Changing the proxy you use to connect to the internet should fix the problem. To do it, in IE go to tools > internet options > connections > lan settings, check the 'use a proxy server' box and type in a proxy..... For NTL users theres a list of proxies here - http://seticlassic.ssl.berkeley.edu/ntl_proxies.html For other people just search google for free anonymous proxy list.

I made one, it was shite to be honest. Fun for about an hour while I made it, and it did work, but not well enough to actually watch anything on.

Yeah, we think so. Its been fine for me.

Yep. Ages ago, and a few others. b*****d NTL

Nice one Neil, will make sure I put it on record

I don't think life skills should be taught as such, you should just pick them up as you go along. If you ride bikes regularly, then you'll find out how to repair a puncture. If you are into cars, then find out how to fix them. If every one, from every walk of life wrote down what they consider to be an essential life skill, then there would be a list as long as your arm.... a giants arm infact. Totally impossible to teach in schools. When I was younger I'd spend hours making treehouses, fixing my bike, general hands on stuff. My brother however, didnt. He's very much academically minded. And for me thats fine, he wouldn't know how to fit a lock onto a door (I wouldn't either but I'm sure I can work it out), but I wouldn't know how to calculate when a star is going to implode. To him, he doesn't need 'life skills', the ones he needs he already has. So yeah, leave it up to the person to decide what 'life skills' they need, as different ones will apply to different people.

Try harder to keep in touch with old mates. I'm rubbish at it.

NiMH rechargeable? These are good - http://svp.co.uk/products-solo.php?pid=570 - check the reviews, you should find them at the shops just at a much higher price I imagine. If you haven't got a charger I recommend it, got a 1 hour charger and about 20 AA + 8 AAA batteries for about £40 over 2 years ago (enough batteries for everything I own). Haven't had to buy a battery since, and when they run out, rather than going to the shop, just charge them for an hour and your back in business. Quite a big outlay, but well worth it in the long run. (Rechargable batteries used to be shite back in the day, but now they work well - half decent ones are better than standard duracell/energiser ones)

Yep, ctrl + 7.

winamp.com Used to be good, now utterly bloated and shit. New suggestion: Winamp 2.18? (I think that was the version before it went crap)

Windows Media Player Classic? Uses 5mb memory on startup, 15mb playing an MP3.

Auto Mod Please use the Best Of The Internet for topics like this.

Open up My Computer, then right click on the DVD drive and go to 'explore'. That'll open up a window with all the files on the DVD. Go into the 'video ts' folder. Right click on any of the files in there and go to properties, it'll tell you the date the file was created, modified etc.. might be of some use?

You could look at the files on it and check the 'Date Modified' details...? (in windows explorer go to view > select 'details')

Seems a bit pointless. All the other 'thread' threads are there for a reason.. usually because there were just too many topics on the same thing running at the same time. So it seemed sensible to make just a single thread about it. Just giving me reason before I close it.... (in future, at least make the first post worth while - IE fill in the details...!)
