Try to Solve the mystery... A man is hanging from a rope in a locked room. Below him is a puddle of water. How did he hang himself? Clues: There is no furniture. When he hung himself, the puddle was not there... Solution: The puddle is all that is left of a large block of ice. The man stood on this in order to hang himself...

This link is good to have seeing as how often the magic lawn gnomes steal my remote. Thanks, Justin

I know you have recevied a lot of good help but i thought i would add my 2 cents. First, make sure the discs are clean and in good condition. Second, Try to use another optical drive if possible (maybe even test it on another comp) Third, Try copying the whole cd manually to do desktop first and installing that way Fourth, Dont rule out the possibilty you could be a victim of pure bad luck and have a bad cd. Hope this helps, JPMK12

You have some really awsome photos there. Thanks for posting them

If your index file is in the right directory, you should be able to see it if the file is named index. Can you post the link to the site and information about the ftp directory the site is in? JPMK12

It worked for me. I was just posting the link hoping it would help someone else.

I was trying to install a wireless network card on a linux laptop and it was not being detected. A friend gave me a link to a utility which can be found here: http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/install.php It is available as a RPM or a tar file. It worked well. Hope this helps someone JPMK12

I came across a few sites that provide free services for web designers. A Lot of them are really cool. Dynamic Drive - http://www.dynamicdrive.com : A very cool website with free dhtml and java scripts. You can find navigation menus, image scripts, scrollers, animations, form effects and a lot more. Java FIle - http://www.javafile.com : Free java alerts, animations, brower utilites, buttons, slideshows, and more. Mikes Free Gifs - http://www.mikesfreegifs.com : Tons of free gifs and images. No popusp and no advertisments. Just a guy who loves to design images. He has an image for every occasio

I was talking to some people about web safe colors the other day so i thought i would post my thoughts here. Web Safe colors were originally created because computers were limited on the amount of colors they could display back in the day. A list of SAFE colors was created so designers would know which colors were accepted by all computers. I posted a list of those web safe colors here: http://www.jpmk12.net/modules.php?op=modlo...&artid=7&page=1 Most people say that web safe colors arent a big deal any more because computers can display millions of colors. I usually try to stay withon

Now, I will cringe in pain.... Ill be sure to pass that on JPMK12

I was in BT and a guy was having trouble getting his computer to boot and install an os due to missing drivers. I found a program called madboot. Madboot is a program that you can download from: http://www.tucows.com/preview/345398 It comes with the drivers and utilities needed to boot and install an os, even if the computer is not cd bootable. All you do is put the floppy in, let it load, then click the button to the os you want to install. I also used madboot to install an os on a comp i had from 1994 that wasnt compatable with anything. Got it running. I hope this nice utitlity will make y

lol, tax man, Someone is getting screwed....

Im gonna have to forward that to some of my friends LOL!

Menus like that can be created using CSS with images or by using tables with background images. There are serveral content management systems out there also that feature layouts like that. Postnuke and phpnuke feature menus like that. Postnuke can be found here: www.postnuke.com

Sounds like something someone in my family would do

I would adivse against taking anything you got from spam seriously. My grandmother fell for one of those and she got scammed for $200. If you do try to get that "Cheap software" you will probably pay and it will never come or they will use you credit card or bank information to put you in debt. Be Careful of what you see on the net.

Looks good to me You asked if it would work with you current computer: Connectivity of the monitor: Input Video Compatibility Analog RGB Connectors D-Sub Thats how you would know if it will connect to your current computer.

I get a 404 on both of those links but it redirects me to http://martint.net/work/v2/index.php I think it would look better with a header. Pages with no header make it look like you banging you ahead against the ceiling. Even if the header was only a thin pad of white Most people also prefer navigation on the left side of the page. But nice look over all.

Creating web sites really is like an art. You start with a basic design then you grow that design. They key to a good website is to keep improving. Never just quit on a site once its up. You should always be learning and trying to improve your skills. As you learn and grow, your web site will grow and look better. JPMK12

The first thing I notice is that the site may be plain, but the information is easy to find. The colors are easy on the eyes and the navigation is logical. As far as the pages go, I think you should come up with service packages. A service package for hardware, a service package for software, this way your customers know how they will be charged and know your professional. As far as the actual design, I suggest you learn more about html to expand your capability. I also think you should learn CSS to help your site look consistent as the site grows. Over all, right now, the site is plain but ea

Website Validation is also very important for web designers. What is meant by validation? A group known as the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) develop a set of standards for html and other web languages. If your website complies with all of their standards, your site is considered valid. If your site doesn't meet the standard, you are invalid. If you page is not valid, it may load slowly and incorrectly. A few small errors wont cause you site to display horrible, but it just looks nicer when you go the extra mile. Why validate? Validation is important for 3 reasons Browsers display Web pages

The comment line can be your best friend when designing an html page. Especially if you are new and are trying to keep your thoughts straight. I use a comment line every time i start a new section or idea in a web oage. It makes for quick and easy editing. The comment line look like this. <!-- Enter your design comment here --> It is invisible to the browser and can only be seen when you view the source or edit the page. You can use it to separate parts of code and keep you mind straight. Learning to use the comment can help you a lot.

I have been designing web sites for a long time and I have seen plenty of sites that are hard to find and poorly done. This is a list of some of the things that can really detract from your content. 1. Using Frames Frames can be very disruptive to users. They have some good points but I would not recommend them. Certain browsers and screen sizes aren't able to show frames properly and this makes frames unreliable. Remember, a designers goal is to make a site viewable to everyone. 2.To many extras Some people tend to put to many java scripts and extras on their sites. Background music and js c
