Hahaha. Ty and I were just chatting, and she was so bored she was taking pics of herself with her digital camera and then editing them in Paint. Well, cheesy though Paint may be, I followed Ty’s idea of using “Invert Colors” on my new 3/21/01 pic of myself at my PC. Que and Ty and I all thought it was hilarious (though not good enough to be a POTM, probably). Here it is:

Here’s some of Ty and I’s thoughts on this pic:

[Ed Note: Woah! Llamas!!!]

Ok, so I haven’t posted news since the AprCol debate (which I see is still in rumor circulation, cause people refuse to accept things). Well, what have I been doing? I have been chatting, playing CS, reviewing 15 MODs at MODArchive, and upgrading Will’s site (which brings up another point: I am open for web page remodeling, starting at $3/hour, $10 for construction of new web page). But aside from that, I have been up to my ears in CGI learning. For our .com, we now have the new optiong of using CGI to store user-gathered info to be displayed instantly on the page. Here’s a list of possible CGI scripts I may or may not learn by Christmas:

1. Table Sorting
2. Form Posting
3. Search
4. Counter
5. Guestbook
6. Shopping Cart

I have already received help in e-mail form from the actual creator of Psycho Stats for CS, which uses table array sorting. Also, he gave me a URL to a site that was very helpful: www.webmonkey.com. There are many very well-written tutorials on various web and graphical design concepts, including CGI. My third resource is a site called “Ranson’s Scripts“, which has many downloadable scripts.

Note to Snake: Something I learned from Webmonkey is that most servers require you to have the .cgi files in the same dir. as the .htmls, and to have the .pl files only in the cgi-bin. Also, be sure to use proper chmod permissions.

As many things are in life, CGI is very complicated but also very useful.

Ok, a lot of you in Nottoway have become very pissed off by my April Column. I would just like to clear some things up: any comments you read were totally, 100% not intended to be negative or insulting. That was of course the exact opposite of my purpose. I originally intended for this to make chicks feel good about themselves. Secondly, I do apologize for any personal invasion I have caused, and the column is not available for viewing anywhere on the internet now. Also, the point of the column was for humor/opinion only, and I greatly thought about the possible consequences and about certain people’s reactions. So, all apologizing out of the way, I would like for you to consider two things:

1. Have a sense of humor. Most of what was said was said humorously, and nothing we at S&L ever say should be taken very seriously, actually. Have a little pity for someone with social anxiety.

2. The 1st Amendment of the Constitution clearly grants the freedom of speech, as someone who didn’t get so pissed about this pointed out. We can write whatever damn things we want on our site. It’s not like I said all of this to your faces or in public to others. I was recycling my old ratings I made when I was bored so there would be some content for April.

Ok, it’s Wednesday… nobody cept Que’s on now (all the pussies [chicks] got off). Well, a lot of good and bad chatting happened earlier today. Phil bitched at me for almost 2 hours about band. He even said “band is everything.” Now that’s just gay right there. Then, I talked to Brittany, and she sided with me on the matter! Later, Que and I had a deep convo about religion, God, and the creation of the universe.

Also, I set up my AEStats thing I got from Snake. I tried playing a game of CS to test it, but so far all the .html with the log says is UT scores for some reason.

Also, I edited my Staff Page today.

Finally, I GOT MY PHOTOS TODAY!!! Yes, I got a new batch of photos of me, my PC, my workspace, and other things around my room. I added some of these scanned to my Photo Album page (took like an hour on my horrid scanner). I also have my NEW FRONT AND BACK PIC OF THE WAD on my January Column. Check it out!

Ok, all the Photo Album stuff is cleared up now, and Que updated the Columns index. I’m moving along rapidly in my Eagle project, step 1 of my new agenda.

The big news of the day is that, as Snake informed me in Keyboarding today, our March column will be about LPBs. Yes, Low-Ping Bastards in games. We will each write our opinions on how ping and LPBs (with not much of it) can totally change the gaming industry.

Well, I put together a working Photo Album subframe system on the site (just click Photo Album on the left Navigation frame), but when I woke up, it wasn’t working. Snake didn’t download nav.html before he added that new gay shit he put up on it [WM Note: You also made it so the News page, POTM, Clan, and Columns didn’t work on the new applet], AND when I tried to access index2, it said I was “forbidden to access”. Plus, our site takes way to long to load- almost as long as planethalflife. SNAKE- QUIT FUCKING WITH THE SITE!
