Yup i agree fully.

the Wiki was a brilliant Idea, and yeah. A layer above the leagues, which can offer marshalls on request, not insist on them

it's called DNS propogation.. If you can see it and no-one else can it's because your DNS servers have updates (as you made the change thats likely)... all the other DNS servers on the intenret have to pick this change up. That can take 24-48 hours everytime you make DNS changes

lol.. well there's no harm in trying mate. All i was saying is there is a certain level of service that will be expected from you, and you will need to guarentee this service, or you wont get customers

no lol

No really, seatbelts and HANS would be nice on racecars.

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!! Brilliant... +3

64 Bit XP Pro seems stable enough on systems i seen it running on... However there is still a large problem with driver support for some older hardware... Dont ask me why... cause i dont know <G>.. If you're on brand new top notch hardware all round though, you shouldn't run into too many issues tho

(as a side note... My Vista is 32 bit on a 64 bit machine... Cause i run crap hardware )

Falcon... whenever i see your avatar out the corner of my eye, I always think it's the bloody Stig posting!!!!!!
sorry.. off topic, but i just had to say it

Very Nice

***** from me

One of my fave combos too - good choice!

Damn.. I thought i was finally gonna get some 18+ content in the LFS forums

I think the fist idea is a bad one.. cause my driving sucks.. i dont think i could take that many people waving thier fists at me

hehehehe

Nah.. Little features like that would be pretty kewl, but not exactly important atm .. maybe as a mod someone could do?

Quote from Quietus :

Years ago, saying we'd be where we are now would be seen as over ambitious. (if that makes any sense)

Perfect sense .. who'd have thought we'd have a BMW Sauber in LFS for example?

although the amount of work setting down base rules would be reasonably large, i think the long term benifits to the leagues would be quite measurable.

This being said, they would only be a rough guideline anyway, and it would be up to the leagues to decide what works best for them and / or weather to use the base rules, or write thier own rulebook, hence the need for a centralized area of reference for the marshalls.

With this in mind, maybe the guideline rules could be "borrowed" from a number of leagues like the STCC, LXCC etc etc and stripped down a little.

if you needed any help writing the base of the system i'd be happy to help if / when i can (being a PHP / MySQL Dev does have it's uses sometimes )

This wouldnt be the kind of comittee where everything would happen at a fast pace, it's something that would take alot of planning, preparing and consideration

a DX9 card works in vista pretty well (well my 6600GT 512MB doesnt seem to stuggle with vistas eye candy ) so i dont think vista should be a big concern even if you were going to buy into it

Ahh now that depends on your provider.. they should offer something (where you bought the domain from) called domain forwarding. With that you can simply make it point to that other address.

If they dont, i'm afraid you'd be looking for a webhost, then you'd change your domains nameservers (will be in the domains control panel somewhere) to the names your webhost supplies

no probs - lemme know if ya need it changing a little... wont always be a prompt response tho.. sometimes i'm not here for days... the rest of the UKCT guys keep me pretty busy

Ahhh the good old Amiga OS.. How i miss that <G>
Although i was an Atari Boy myself...

Anyways.. Yeah.. My reason for windoze at home is BF2, LFS (runs sucky in WINE for me), Photoshop, Dreamweaver and 3dStudio Max to name just a few lol

nps

Any good?

hmm.. You sure thats ok?? it was only a quick example.. if you want it cleaning up / fading into a divverent colour or anything like that.. i'll do a better one!!! lol

I loaded the Photo into photoshop, and used the colour picker on a few red areas of the car to create the boxes, then noted down the colour codes for you... Hope it helps

Either of these any good to you?? or ya need something bigger / different?

I can only really recommend Photoshop... I'll Blend out to the grey of your site?? #666666 ??

I'll add a tv filter to one as well.. post a couple of examples, you can tell me what you like

If your team / You have an LFS skin in can include that also if you'd like.. But that would take a bit longer cause i'd have to render in 3dStudio

ok i'll load the one you sent into photoshop and have a play.. i'll do a couple... i wont be able to make any bigger than the image you supplied though, otherwise it will pixelate and go wierd.

Give me 5 mins, got to move from the laptop to the PC

LFS is so good that i played it so much i dont have any friends now, My Missus Left me, My House is gone, I have no Money but i dont care. Now those distractions have finally gone, i can play more LFS

hehe.. I did a Little mIRC stuff, a few scripts and things, but never really got into the IRCd side of it.

Although i like to play with my linux, the UKCT majority decided to go Windows with the dedicated box, so i'm stuck with Linux being used really just for my stuff (although for a personal / semi pro website there's only so much you can use it for)..... I dont play with it as much as i'd like... I might chuck fBSD in a VM later on the linux one and have a play.. can never hurt to try new things <G>

bug samH enough and get him to my side so he persuades the rest of the financiers.. we might actually be able to integrate alot of the web stuff with the system processes, which i cant do on windows (and maybe write a decent Insim app in a language i can grasp fully).... gooo on ya know ya want too... hehehehehehehehe

grrrrrrrrrrrrrr lmao
i'm 24 .. in the unix world I AM A KID

Very Nice..... I still use Pine for root messages on my server.. everything else is Outlook via Imap nowadays <G>
