screencaps

feeds@yuku.com (tek ni) — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 09:30:42 GMT

This never ceases to confuse and piss me off. Okay, most of the time if I'm making screencaps from a DVD, I use WinDVD, which is fine. But sometimes I try another program like Real Player, just because WinDVD sometimes may for some unknown reason be a bit grainier or something. But anyway... sometimes when I use Real Player (or WMP), well it doesn't have a screencapture function, so I just have to hit the print screen button on my keyboard. And sometimes it works fine, and I can just...

installation problem

feeds@yuku.com (tek ni) — Mon, 12 May 2008 11:33:56 GMT

I recently downloaded an updated version of a program I've used a number of times, a program called SUPER, which converts files to different types. I find it very useful. But now... the new version won't install. I get this message when the installation nears completion:

The trouble is, when I get the message, there are no other programs running, at least none that I opened or have...

SEO poisoning attack hits big sites; Can the defenses scale?

feeds@yuku.com (Padre Mellyrn) — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 09:03:19 GMT

Posted by Larry Dignan @ 5:26 am ON zdnet

Security researcher Dancho Danchev said Friday that SEO poisoning attacks have scaled up and are attacking well known sites. Google has been filtering its results as a defense, but Danchev's latest finding brings up an interesting question: Can the defenses scale?

First, a few key points. SEO poisoning isn't...

getting a box around quotes in posts

feeds@yuku.com (Eliza DoLots) — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 12:27:55 GMT

Can that be done? Remember how a quote used to look? Now, it's just text hanging in space....is there a way to fix things so there's a box around the quote? (I actually ask this on behalf of another board...I poked around and couldn't find an answer)

cascading menus

feeds@yuku.com (tek ni) — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 21:42:57 GMT

here is my anime index page, which uses frames. I want to change it, though. I want to be able to do cascading submenus for certain things, but that seems to be tricky to do with frames. I've spent too much of today trying to figure it out and now I want to sleep. Already I'm behind on other things I need to do with my free time and I'm scared of getting further and further behind if I keep trying...

Getting back into IT...

feeds@yuku.com (SandyTaleSpinner) — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 08:04:26 GMT

Padre, Monkey, & all y'all rest of ya: I'm getting back into working IT, specifically focusing on desktops w/network connectivity, and would appreciate any suggestions on web-based knowledge bases... URLs would be appreciated. Things like ZDNet, CNet, etc. Got tired of being in a rut that barely touched what I'd gone to school for, don'cha know?

screensavers

feeds@yuku.com (tek ni) — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 20:23:14 GMT

Does anyone know how to extract images from a screensaver? I have one that just puts a bunch of different images on the screen over and over, there's a set of images each of which can be displayed in different sizes or locations, even flipped, but... the images don't take turns, each one stays on the screen and they keep adding images and overlapping, and eventually it starts over. It's somewhat random, though I think the order changes a bit each time it starts over. Anyway, I...

Visual issues with the board

feeds@yuku.com (Padre Mellyrn) — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 05:45:43 GMT

lets go ahead and talk about the settings and things on the board, so that we can try and resolve an issue with small font.

For the most part I have the general font size of the main section and the defaut layouts (if one creates a new forum) to 13PX. That doesn't seem to be an issue in the main part of the forum, but it does seem to be an issue in specific forums and topics.

I went to the open arms, but I couldn't see a difference in text size, yet I have no...

"WTF?" of the day feeds@yuku.com (tek ni) — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 11:40:31 GMT You know, I make lots of screencaps for my anime girls galleries. And after I've uploaded them all, I delete them from the folder on my computer. If there's enough of them that I don't want to delete each picture individually on Irfanview, I save time by opening the folder in windows explorer, which lets me select as many files as I want to delete all at once. Sometimes I may choose "select all" but much of the time I do want to leave some files in the folder, like...... Is it only me, or is the font TINY? feeds@yuku.com (DaisyCares) — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 01:36:02 GMT I can barely read it. Is it just me? feeds@yuku.com (ecgordon) — Sun, 27 Jan 2008 15:50:52 GMT This may have already been addressed somewhere else, but bear with me, cause I'm lazy and don't want to search for it. Every thread I enter here has the teeny, tiniest font imaginable. The font in Padre's sig seems to be the right size, but anything in the message field is extremely small. What's up with that? Just me and my machine, or is there something I'm not seeing that adjusts that for my screen? Testing feeds@yuku.com (Keitaro01) — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 20:47:12 GMT I can post here now. Topic pruning? feeds@yuku.com (ecgordon) — Tue, 01 Jan 2008 14:44:08 GMT This is something I don't think I've ever done at Templeton Gate, and now I am having problems getting the action done. I was thinking it would be a good thing to do before the move to Yuku, but I may have waited too long. Do you suppose the problem is that they are in the process of importing TGate to Yuku at this time? Or perhaps I am selecting the wrong date, with too many posts to delete prior to that time. It is timing out on me and accomplishing nothing. Upgrade that puppy! feeds@yuku.com (elizadolots(d)) — Thu, 27 Dec 2007 00:04:35 GMT So, my computer is 8 years old. Recently I've upgraded it to USB 2 ports, replaced a dead DVD player with a multi format DVD burner and today, we bought it an external 500 Gigabyte hard drive (to which all personal stuff has been transferred) and an additional 512 megs of RAM giving us 768 megs of RAM. I've repartitioned the internal hard drive to give 50 gigs to the C drive...

I just started, and I'm finding it fun. I think that's mostly because it's making me think about how I conceptualize my bookmarks. I also like the tag cloud that is developing from my bookmarks. I've only got about 55 bookmarks in, and it's already becoming less useful than the portal site I built to keep track of my most frequently used links. Or perhaps I'm just not yet skilled at using tags to find content. Or maybe it's that I'm not yet good at coming up... outlook express feeds@yuku.com (tek ni) — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 18:35:13 GMT well, i haven't used this in many years, but my dad uses it. Lately when he opens the program, it prompts him to enter his password. It never used to do this, I guess. He asked me to see if I could get it to stop doing that, but I can't figure it out. When you enter the password, the "remember password" box is checked, but it doesn't remember it. I've tried setting and resetting it in options, but it just won't remember it. Get your game face on Padre.... feeds@yuku.com (1southside) — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 19:24:56 GMT ....How can you save 'you tube' videos directly to your hard-drive without a download each time you want to watch a specific favorite video? Now i know you can add a video to 'favorites' and click the link to watch it. BUT! you are now tasked with a monumental task of how to send any 'Youtube' video directly to the hard-drive to play immediately without the lengthy download process. DVD-RW feeds@yuku.com (tek ni) — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 08:30:40 GMT Recently I bought a new pack of DVD-RWs, which I need for recording stuff temporarily from the DVR to play on the computer. The first disc I used, I recorded from the DVR on the DVD recorder, and it worked fine, but it wouldn't play in the computer. I tried a bunch of times, and finally it worked. But I don't see how there can be a problem with the disc if it has no trouble at all playing in the DVD recorder. And I don't see how there...
