Almost a month!!!

Posted on January 24, 2002 by Loogie

Ok, I last posted on the 28th of December of last year… and I have a lot of assorted things to go over. Here goes:

I guess the most foremost and site-consequential is the new contract. Snake got a form program and typed up a formal paper for every member of the clan (a special one for me) that will clear up all past discrepancies about whatever. I can’t go into detail, for possible breach of the contract, but it’s definitely int.

Also site-consequential: I got Netscape! I didn’t want to do it, I swear… I had to cause IE’s been gayin (lockin) a lot lately. They aren’t that much different, and u can set up Netscape to be almost the same as IE. It stores temp files in WindowsTemp and not the TIF; it has a nicer way of downloading files; u know, the usual. But this gave me an inside look into how Netscape users see our site! We’ve always said our site’s for IE users, and that still remains true… because of a couple things: Netscape doesn’t support “bgproperties=fixed” (text scrolling and not moving the background); the topframe’s JavaScript doesn’t work right w/ it; it creates white borders around a lot of things; and the scrollbar color can’t be changed. That’s about all.

A month ago, I got a new printer/scanner/copier combo! U may have seen it on QVC: the Lexmark X73. It’s amazing. Scans full pages in 20 seconds tops (my old scanner took 8 minutes), and prints nicely. Great software.

I was gonna show u my badass new IE top bar w/ Hotbar, but I have Netscape now :( . However, another topbar-kinda-thing: Windows’ toplaunch. Snake and I each have one, but now mine’s 2 bars wide:

CS news: I still play on Hot Cinnamon, as does Gr-Dragon (and Que played yesterday)… but I’m not in the stats cause they never reset. Gr is currently #65, lol. I have been going about skinning everything in the game (from cs-skins.net)… all I have left is 5 player models, 2 grens, 3 pistols, the sig550, VIP, and helicopter. I’ve been planning an incredible screenshot involving my Gumby chicken, Gr, Que, and a hostage in a group pose. But I’ll get that on here next post.

Tom’s Hardware Guide has come out w/ some great articles recently… one about CPU cooling systems, and a roundup of GF3 TiX cards. Sharky’s hain’t come out w/ much lately, cept they reviewed our boy Max Payne.

And now, THE BIG JUMBLED NEWS SWIRL! 😛 … I made a new Darkhalo CD, and put labels and inlets for the Darkhalo CDs that would put MicroSoft’s holographic Windows CDs to shame. Maybe when our company starts, I can mass-produce these; new version of Aimster came out, that doesn’t crash all the time (they now call it “Madster”); Blizzard.com just held the official WarCraft3 beta signups… Snake and I signed up, they choose like 50 I think; the artist Future Sound of London 0wnz j00… look @ Darkhalo’s “pretty” musical inspiration page here for some of his songs to get on Aimster; school’s gettin easy. I have the exact same schedule next semester as this semester, except for one class.

And for closing, here’s the funniest thing I came across lately:
