  1. My new HTPC desktop. XP Pro - Razor 1.2 Theme Wallpaper from DeviantArt Rainmeter Skins: - Dark Rainmeter - Clock, Date, System Info - Custom Skin for text at top of each bar, and the planet launcher Each planet lights up on scroll over and opens the respective folder (text at top), while the System Info planet opens My Computer. Currently the Anime Planet is lit up.
  2. I'm wanting to set up a home web server for testing purposes, intranet only. Right now I'm planning on setting up openSUSE 11 x86 in Virtual Box (running on Windows 7 RC1 x64) on a 10GB vhd with 512MB RAM. I'm just not sure how to go about partitioning on it. Assuming I can get it set up correctly I'm just wanting to throw various CMS on it to try and learn to use them and also for testing layouts. Could anyone recommend a good partition structure for said server. Note: I know very little about linux. I've dual booted XP and Ubuntu several times but always end up deleting the Linux partition b
  3. Haven't posted here in awhile, I see Arachnid still posts a lot of his creations I've updated my desktop a lot, moved from XP to Windows 7, new apps, new wallpapers I got from DeviantArt Windows 7 x64 Rainmeter with: HUD.Vision Enigma (Weather & Calendar) Dark Rainmeter (Time & Date)
  4. Not really what I was looking for but it will do for now since I like the image preview. I set up the ext core and lightbox (I might look into JSONP later) and built a table with thumbnail links to a full size image. Thanks for the response but if anybody has something more automated (maybe I just didn't see the automated part of this) I'd greatly appreciate it.
  5. I'm looking for a simple way to automatically load all photo's from a directory on the website into a simple array, maybe 5 x 5 with multiple pages of photo's (not creating a "pics1.html, pics2.html, pics3.html etc.) and when you click on an image it opens a pop up with an enlarged version. I'm thinking this all might have to be done in flash, so maybe a flash template? I don't know much about flash though I have access to Adobe Flash CS3 and have done minor tweaks to templates before such as changing text replacing images. Free is best.
  6. Currently learning Unattended installation, and I'm wanting to customize the images that appear during the XP installation process. Where are these files located (I'm assuming within the I386 folder?)
  7. I know nothing of actionscript or flash. I helped a friend set up a website for her photography, she paid for domain space and a flash template but didn't have the software or know-how to customize the template, so I offered to do it for her. I managed to change all the names and such, fairly simple, just finding the right object and editing the text. The problem is on the News page I need to be able to have multiple pages for each month of news (and scrollable in case there's more news than the page can fit in one month but I think I found a tutorial to help me with that.) The website is here
  8. In that case is there a way to use the UBCD software on an external drive instead of a CD? Would I just create a partition on the external and throw the files in?
  9. Looking for diagnostic software I can put on an external drive that will allow me to either boot from it and diagnose a variety of hardware problems or recover data from a bad drive. Something of the sorts anyway. Anybody know of any such software? I saw Ultimate Boot CD but wasn't sure if it was legit or even good.
  10. Have a wireless pci adapter, MN-730, Broadcom chipset, bcm43xG. I've tried many How to's on the Ubuntu forums but nothing seems to work. I don't want use fwcutter (bcm43xx or something like that), or not completely, if I need to use it at first to be able to get online to download something to get ndiswrapper to work I will. I say this because from what I've read, fwcutter will leave me with an 11mbps connection which I is too slow. Am hoping maybe somebody can help me out individually since the how to's aren't helping. got mn720-ankh.inf installed only problem now is I seem to have misplaced
  11. Blue Fan Blue Shards Rays of Ice *Hi-Resolution 1MB+* Blood Ether *Hi-Resolution 1MB+* The first 2 were made at school, the second two hi-res were at home with the many different brushes. Namings probably suck but oh well.
  12. I have created a few wallpapers, unfortunately they were at school (got bored and they had Photoshop CS3) so I can't post them yet. For now I'll post my latest desktop customizing: Using ObjectDock, the top dock autohides but I pulled it out for the screenshot. Vista Aurora wallpaper, Razor XP Theme.
  13. Yeah, I'd have to say those 9 hours look to be worth it, that is amazing.
  14. OK, I set up a computer out of spare parts I had, not great, believe it's an old Pentium 2, at least 300 MB ram, 4GB HDD. Installed Ubuntu 4.10 on it and now I'm trying to get it online. I've got a crossover cable running between the Linux computer and my Windows XP desktop that has a wireless card connected to the wireless network (router is downstairs). What I'm trying to figure out is how to set up the connection. Do I need to Bridge my wireless and LAN connections via Network Connections and if so should the Ubuntu computer automatically be able to get online or do I need to do something
  15. Question: has nobody heard of Archos? I mean ok, yeah, different views, different opinions, but really, why would you spend $400 on a 16GB iPod Touch when you can spend the same amount on an Archos 605 WiFi with 160GB? I mean is multi-touch and a smaller design really worth it for 10 times less space? Oh well, I don't mean to bash Apple (well maybe just a tiny bit) but most commonly the only advantage I've found an iPod has ever had over something else of the same type is that it's smaller.
  16. OK so I guess I'm dragging up a semi-old topic but I'm trying to understand Net Neutrality and am writing a persuasive speech for a senior english class over the subject, the problem is I don't know my own position because I don't even understand the subject. I've been googling it for many hours over the past couple days and keep encountering contrasting information. This is basically what I'm getting from pro-net neutrality sites: Maintaining Net Neutrality will prevent ISP's (or telecomm companies?) from double charging users. Without net neutrality, the companies can charge content provide
  17. getting the same message as when I do \\example except it takes like 10 seconds of trying to do something before it shows up.
  18. I'm at a LAN, everybody else is able to share their folders and such but I'm unable to. I can get online, play games with them fine but nothing shows up under the Workgroup Computers. Tried typing in the computer in the address bar direct ( \\example ) but it immediately pops up a message saying it can't connect. Have turned of Windows Firewall, have 2 ethernet ports (1 card, 1 integrated) and a wireless card, wireless and ethernet card are disabled, running on the integrated Ethernet. Have tried running the network setup wizard several times in several different ways and nothing works. Any id
  19. Alright so I found a solution though I dunno if it'll help anybody else with the same problem. I formatted and installed Win2k. Simple eh? I guess Windows 98 just isn't very good with wireless?
  20. Dropping in some Space Art Green Space this time And another Amidst The Stars
  21. Yeah, I'm fairly sure I've entered the correct one, I tried a few times to make sure. Thank you , and will do.
  22. oh look, tootsdog is on both forums haha. and I've been googling for help too, having no luck. OK well w/e, I go to command prompt and do a release/renew and here's what I'm getting... C:\WINDOWS\Desktop>ipconfig /renew_all IP ConfigurationError DHCP Server Unavailable: Renewing adapter "" Windows 98 IP Configuration 0 Ethernet adapter : IP Address. . . . . . . : 169.254.3.47 Subnet Mask . . . . .: 255.255.0.0 Default Gateway . . .: *EDIT* Tried pinging the router @ 192.168.2.1 Destination host unreachable So it says I'm conected to the wireless network, I can send data, but can
  23. Well in answer to both of those, I have 3 other computers on this network for one, for two it's not a problem of others accessing my computer without the WEP it's a matter of my father wishing to prevent others from hopping on our network and getting free internet (yet he won't do a thing about our ISP limiting our connection to 1/3 of what he pays for). So yeah... I don't see how running a software firewall or any sort of anti-virus programs are going to let me browse on a WEP encrypted network.
  24. Unfortunately no, that's what I use is 64 bit encryption and it doesn't work and I've tried it before on 128 bit too. The laptop is a Compaq, ARMADA 1580DMT running Windows 98. Specs pulled from here as I don't have enough time to look on the comp itself right now. Intel Pentium @ 150 MHz 2.1 GB HDD 16 MB RAM
  25. Well I received a very crappy (IMO) laptop from a friend who had nothing he could do with it and wanted to be rid of it. The only way I could possibly get online with it was via an RJ11 phone jack connection on it. So I bought a cheap Netgear Wireless PCMCIA Card ($15 on TigerDirect) for it (11Mbps). It seems to work fine... except for the fact that I can't receive any data on an encrypted network. I found that by turning off WEP on my network, I can connect and browse easily without problems, but when I turn the WEP back on (and yes the wireless card has up to 128-bit encryption) I can connec
