    I need help, please!

    Java actually did this to me when I tried to delete the JRE after downloading the JDK, then when the JDK stopped working (because everybody knows software stops working right the older it gets) and I tried to update to a new version of Java, it said I already had it installed, but when I try to uninstall, it said it couldn't find the files. Gotta love logic. I ended up having to reinstall windows to get Java to work, even after cleaning out the registry and hidden folders.

     

    If you can live with these files on your computer, I wouldn't worry about deleting them, because there may not always be a good solution.

    Song Lyrics Thread

    in Druid's Garden

    Posted

    My favorite song is Losing Hope, by Jack Johnson. I love it like I love few other things in this world.

     

    -------------------------------------

     

    I got a faulty parachute

    I got a stranger's friend

    An exciting change in

    My butchers blend

    A symbol on the ceiling

    With the flick of a switch

    My new found hero

    In the enemy's ditching

     

    Well somebody's something was left in the room

    And man now that its gone well of course we assume

    That somebody else needed something so bad

    That they took everything that somebody had

     

    Losing hope is easy

    When your only friend is gone

    And every time you look around

    Well, it all, it all just seems to change

     

    The mark was left

    Man it's never the same

    Next time that you shoot

    Make sure that you aim

    Open windows with passing cars

    A brand new night

    With the same old stars

     

    Losing hope is easy

    When your only friend is gone

    And every time you look around

    Well, it all, it all just seems to change

     

    Feed the fool

    A piece of the pie

    Make a fool of his system

    Make a fool of his mind

    Give him bottles of lies

    And maybe he'll find

    His place in heaven

    Cause he might just die

     

    Losing hope is easy

    When your only friend is gone

    And every time you look around

    Well, it all, it all just seems to change

    But hanging on is easy

    When you've got a friend to call

    When nothings making sense at all

    You're not the only one who's afraid of change

    Odd moments

    Beat that.

    I once found a mudcrab in Red Mountain.

     

    Yeah, you told us over at the Synod. That's pretty funny.

     

    The oddest moment I had was just today. I was playing around with the Scrolls if Icarian Flight (that guy falling out of the sky never grows old ;)) and I guess I got lucky, because I landed on the side of a hill, unharmed. Despite this, there were cliff racers all around, and I was hard pressed to enjoy my lucky escape from the grasp of death.

    - all of the Septims (the filthy tyrannic Septim monarchs never did anything good for their people)

     

     

    :thumbsup:

    Yay! Another Anti-Septim guy! You're welcome to join my anti-legion group anytime, kid! lol, it's a group I made IN Oblivion. It's not real, lol! :P

     

    <_<

     

    I like the Septims, myself.

    Top members (by kudos)

    I don't think we should start picking out top members and getting into the entire "who's better than who" debate. It's inevitably going to happen, and a lot of people are going to get pissed off. I'd remove the feature and move onto more pressing matters, more functional things than glorifying members.

    Well of course I'd elaborate. Just let me gather my thoughts for a min...

     

    ...What I would do is this:

     

    First, make a larger (wider is what I mean) logo or banner for the top, so that it strecthes along the page. Also, it needs different background colors, rather than the same as the rest of the site. A third shade of grey would be splendid. Darker. Which color exactly. Looking at your CSS (http://www.tesnexus.com/style.css) I'd go with your "input" and "select" selectors, the background color #313131. It would make a splendid banner. For those of you who need to see the color for yourself, look at the background of the "search" field on the homepage.

     

    Second, make a header, relatively narrow (doesn't have to be though), same colors as the logo/banner, for the top of each news post on the home. Also, make some smaller ones for each of the parts on the right and left sidebars (splendidly crafted ones at that) and put those as the background image for all the smaller headers there. Simply, an image for the h1, h2, and h3 selectors. Everything you have a header on, it could use an image.

     

    Third, the backgound could have a tad more detail, rather than a simple color, so I'd construct, if nothing else, a huge image (1280x1024) with a gradient that simple changes the background from the lighter grey ("box" selector bg color) to the current one. No repeat obviously. Position in the top left. Or left top, not sure.

     

    Finally, I'm wondering if a more noticable border on the sidebars and headers would work. Maybe the link color? That might be a little too much though, so probably you shouldn't do it unless you really want to.

    I make websites, and I'm quite proud of my accomplishments thus far. I love CSS and XHTML and stuff, and so I have a good idea about what's possible with a site and the work put into it. As of yet, I like what you've done iwht the Place Dark0ne, however it think it lacks the spice and boldness of the former site. More color perhaps, but definitely some graphics.

     

    Which brings me to my next point. I love making webstie graphics, and again, I'm quite proud of my accomplishments. I'm dissappointed by the graphics on the site now, or lack thereof. I'm sure that you're busy working on them, and I know it's just a matter of time before they're up and looking good, and so I'm not going to stress this point.

     

    Ultimately, you've done a good job on it, but it has a long way to come before it outshines it's predecessor.

     

    Now, coming a bit more on-topic, if I had the time, and the knowledge of PHP and SQL, to run a gaming website and oversee a database for game modifications, I'd create my site very similar to this one. I like the style of the page, very plain and spiced up by a color or two out of the ordinary that contrasts or blends well with the greyscale/neutral theme. I like the column theme, but I'd take it to another level with more features on the acutal homepage so visitors and members wouldn't have to constantly go between Home, News, file Index, etc... Also, I want the homepage to have a bit more... impressive... features and graphics to be the first things noticed to leave a good initial impression, but not becoming too repetitive and annoying to regulars (which happens on the sites that go crazy with the details). Finally, I keep the graphics, features, and all that whatnot that's necessary simple and small enough to keep load times fast for all visitors. Usually I don't visit a site if I have to wait more than a few seconds for it to load.

     

    That's it for now... hehe.

    Maroon 5 is definitely in my top three faves. I'm listening to it as we type. :lol:

     

    I got sick of Hinder and Nickleback before long, me being a big fan of alternative instead of rock. So for now it's back to Better than Ezra: Before the Robots, Maroon 5, and Keane songs. Good stuff!
