Hurray!

Bubba for president. Shit, we don't have a president yet, do we?

Erm, Bubba for "owner of cadburys" (perhaps then I'll get a chocolate sponsorship.)

[Bubba]

I'll be president as long as you keep Monica Lewinski off her knees  :wink:

I quite like the "Karma Rating" thingy on this board

Good idea or bad?

[dave]

I recon its a good idea - could be worth a try.

[Bubba]

I'll look into it - at the moment everyone on the board has "good karma" anyway I suppose.....there's loads of nice mods out there to add features to the board - it's just working out which ones would just clutter the place up and which ones would be genuinely useful.

All requests considered....

[dobbin]

I've no links to any sites with the MyCal mod, I downloaded it last night and might have a fiddle over the weekend ( :wink: ) and I might test out that mod as well     hey, its hard being so witty.

re: "owner of cadburys" - my missus works for them, want me to get her to put a word in for you Stu? I can see you strutting up and down Ravens Tor in purple lycra....

[Bubba]

As requested...... should be "chuff heretic" really !

I was going to install the custom titles mod, and the mycalendar mod (to keep Dobbin happy) this w/e but got waylaid with learning Adobe Pagemaker to make these two new review pages....not quite live yet:

learning Adobe Pagemaker

been playing around with that one myself lately too - actually quite easy to use and i can almost make things look professional(http://www.hongkongclimbing.com/downloads/tunglung.pdf - about 2.8mb so fast connection recommended)

still not thought of a suitably apt title for myself yet - best i could come up with was 'sketchy' which was what i was refered to by those i climbing with prior to departing for pastures new

[Bubba]

It's a wicked package - about as intuitive as photoshop, ie - not at all, but once you've got the basics sussed, it's really nice. MS Publisher would probably be an easier learning curve.

That topo looks excellent Stu - shall I put you as sketchy then?

[hongkongstuey]

shall I put you as sketchy then?

nah, its a bit lame - i'll waste some more of works time trying to come up with something

Why? I don't get it....

Are those screens set up for a fixed resolution cause on IE 6.0 I had trouble viewing the whole page and that was on a desktop of 1600x1200!

I prefer dreamweaver for web site stuff but then I tend to code most of the sites I work on in PHP. Although I've not done much with my current site as I am waiting for a net connection at home....

[dave]

You can scroll by clicking on the page and dragging it up and down.

Wooo I like it.

Sorry, it's a boldering.com ism.

No, you just use the hand cursor to scroll it, or use the up/down pageup/down keys on your keyboard....

dreamweaver is great for site design, but pagemaker is good for dtp / creating pdfs, etc.

[danielb]

Fair enough, I've only dabbled with creating pdfs with php at runtime...

And yeah pagemaker is an excellant dtp package.

[Bubba]

How do you create pdfs at runtime in php? Is there a site that has the apis?

[danielb]

Its described in the online manual here looks to be one of the very cool features of the language for creating nice printer friendly docs.

[Bubba]

Cheers - theres a java version here

Probably a good way to do printer friendly pages, though just using a different stylesheet will often suffice.

Aaaagggh! We must stop this geekery.

Talking of which - take the geek test

I scored 13.5% which is "geekish tendencies". Some people I work with got nearly 40% - scary.

[danielb]

I got 15% last time but we had a couple of 65%ish people here, but then this is a computer games company....

[Bubba]

65%  :shock:

Fuck me, they must come to work in Star Trek costumes and stuff !
