I agree with Gandolph. You could've chosen some better women (and probably omitted the men altogether-AFAIK, there are very few girls or gay guys here  ).

You don't want to worry about making a browser that renders on ALL browsers and PC's, nor do you only want to make a site that renders on only the most popular. You want to make a site that will render on as many different setups as possible.

I suggest you look for books on web usability and SEO (search engine optimization) at the library. I currently have several, and all are excellent sources of information.

Another good point. I came across some site posted on the emulator forum that required (not recommended, but required) you to have IE7 to view the site (not just one page, but the ENTIRE site). Needless to say, I lost interest in what the site had to offer pretty quickly. BTW (and completely unrelated), I also know Coldfusion.

Ahh, a very good point you make. Too restrictive is no good at all, as evidenced by your reaction to the site (which consequently, is probably most people's reaction).

No Krishnan, programming knowledge is not necessary. The main web design languages (PHP, HTML, XML, Javascript) are not programming languages, but rather scripting or markup languages, which are much simpler.

To be perfectly honest, I don't think I've ever read a post in the Game Room (here or at TWCC), let alone posted. So I have no idea what problems there are in either place. But I've had no complaints on my board, so I assume there are no problems. Personally, I don't see the point of a game room on any board. Message boards should be a place to exchange ideas, not to guess what someone is thinking or play hangman.

I absolutley agree with you 1 billion percent. I am HEAVILY thinking about removing the game board altogether. Its gonna take some big thinking, so it will be a while before I decide, but I am very much in favor of such a measure.

And with that, I am locking this thread.

Ugh, ANOTHER power outage. Power went out around 3 and JUST came back on. This is getting ridiculous.
