BUT!

Version 3 of the page is now online, so look and enjoy. I also added some links for certain people featured...

Some of the pictures don't look quite right on the page - a little stretched. Especially the pic I'm in at the Prodigal! My head's enormous as it is without a bit more adding to it

IMHO just resizing the pictures in something like Paint Shop Pro would have done

I did say this was my first attempt at HTML, Paul. Other people have mentioned the rescaling, if I get time today I will work on version 4...

I don't have Paint Shop Pro, or any serious graphic tools at the moment. I'm a newbie when it comes to PC graphics.

I know you said it was your 1st attempt at HTML. I wasn't judging the site on the strength of the 1st version - only offering constructive criticism as to help for the site.

I appreciate that you have made the effort to create a website. Not everyone (myself included) has done that.

If you are looking for places to get a good graphics tool, try download.com or cnet.com. Paint Shop Pro does a decent job for me with picture rescaling so that should suffice.

I'm on version 5 but don't know what version you can get on the links I've just given at this time. If you are just getting links to downloading demos of Paint Shop Pro, let me know

Ok so i said screw the Ctalyst2 host - crap service anyways, I instalkled apache and perl myself, here the URL should be NO acess problems now

Thx

Finally get to see them

Finally get to see them

No reason why not now - im local hosting on my own apache server and theres nothing in the way.... no special permissions or user connection limits, no server overload or performance % drop. Im also hosting a public FTP service and a Perl forum service; no access issues reported across over 200 users - so im kinda at a loss to explain it andreas.. sorry.

Speaking of which, wheres the Boz shop gawne ? I clicked the link yesterday and ZIPPOLA - NADDA - NO BIT LIVE SHOP !! ... Boz if ur reading this, i sent a request for that shopping script i didnt get a reply ** nudge nudge wink wink ow's ya farther ** lol ...

Yup my server is TCP through a router with port 80 forwarding setup across 2 10/100 LAN cards and a dyndns IP URL. Current support only for Perl, but PHP-Nuke and MySQL will follow.

Ok so im learning lol .... i took a look into why you couldnt reach the site - seems my lan card decided (with auto IP) change its IP by 1 digit - ive setup the default gateway and subnet mask now and the card has a fixed IP - it WILL now work....

Have no idea why it changed mid operation - just 1 of those things i suppose - but fixed anyway - just niggles im sure as I learn about hosting.

@Matrix : Is that normal, that your machine comes from port 30080 to knock on my port 1501 ? Just curious...

Not sure i understand what you mean Volsa ? are you saying that my PC is singling you out for unwarranted connections ? - If you came to the forum, even as a guest, then cookies will more than likly be written, the forum depends on them, beyond that i dont run any kind of probing software. The port-forwarding options in the router only open port 21 for the members ftp service and 80 for the http service; fraid i dont know what those ports are you're reffering to.

[edit] - I also open port 12300 for running the treadmarks game server and 12311 for the private arranged matches server, I dont open anything that high though.

Certainly my friend - I dont see your email here, so drop me one first letting me know how much I can send in megabytes. Whatever happened to your pics bro - I think they are the only ones I havent collected and i have about 70 megs worth now hehe...

Right, after 7 months of being a lazy git, I've finally got all my photos from Brighton uploaded to a photo gallery.

Hope it's worth the wait for those of you who were waiting (it's waaay too late so talking even more bollocks than usual... )

Click the link at the bottom then, when the Ofoto login page loads up, just click on the blue 'View Photos' button to access the gallery. Set it so you don't have to register as I didn't want to annoy those people who might not want to register just to see a few photos.

It's probably a good idea to close the pop-up window that appears as it starts a slideshow of all the photos that cycle a bit too quickly, IMHO.

Click on the 1st photo then use the arrows to cycle through the photos at your leisure.

And yes, Merman, I admit it's a cop out to do an instant photo gallery when you made a valiant attempt to do some HTML with your site. I just couldn't be bothered.
