    Welcome aboard, Cherokeechief.
  2. No longer a valid site Pete. He took down the mirror.
  3. Welcome aboard, Goliath.
  4. I see one problem. On your affiliates page, under Good Forum Links, you forgot one, Besttechie.net.
  5. Here you go, blim. . . . . .

    Hello All

    Thanks for the directions TG1911. I remember you from the Call For Help boards, right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Your welcome. Yep, that's me. Posted at G4 for a while, then quit when B got this board up and running. Never did like it, over there. Spend all of my time here, and another board, now.
  7. Don't know about Gimp, but it takes about 5 secs to fade a picture with Irfanview / Image / Enhance colors... As brett5150 suggested, post the image.

    Frame Design

    Have to agree with bozodog on the blue. For me anyway, that shade is to hard on the old eyes. Maybe a lighter shade, not so harsh. Other than that, it looks good. I like the idea of using the bottom tab, for a link to more info.
  12. Welcome aboard to all the G4 refugees. I think you'll find this is a much friendlier place to hang out. So kick back, relax, and enjoy.
  13. macmarauder, You misunderstood. That's what this type of ceramics was developed for. High temps, high pressures, and high strength. Said to be 50 times stronger, than the current strongest ceramics. Something to do with the length of the fibers. The companies experimenting with it are jet, turbine, and internal combustion engine manufactureres. It's supposed to be some wicked stuff, but still experimental. Either way, still to expensive for me.
  14. You're quite welcome, murtu52. Hopefully, you'll find one that'll work for you.
  15. macmarauder, Have you thought about ceramics? A chemical plant I used to work at was experimenting with a long fiber ceramic. A lot stronger than short fiber. Several companies were buying the stuff ($50,000 a barrel) to experiment with. Can you imagine a ceramic engine? Unlike metals, ceramics don't expand, or contract, with changes in temperatures. Ceramic also don't melt in extremely high temps, which is the main limiting factor in increasing the power output of turbines. Ceramics would also generate very little friction. Just, food for thought.
  16. congratulations, Nerelda.
  17. Her Diary Tonight I thought he was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a bar to have a drink. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment. Conversation wasn't flowing so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed but he kept quiet and absent. I asked him what was wrong; he said nothing. I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset. He said it had nothing to do with me and not to worry. On the way home I told him that I loved him, he simply smiled and kept driving. I
  18. I never quite figured out why the sexual urge of men and women differ so much. And I never have figured out the whole Venus and Mars thing. I have never figured out why men think with their head and women with their heart. FOR EXAMPLE: One evening last week, my wife and I were getting into bed. Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says "I don't feel like it, I just want you to hold me." I said "WHAT????!!! What was that?!" So she says the words that every man on the planet dreads to hear..."You're just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough, for me to
  19. A cattle rancher needs a bull to service his cows but needs to borrow the breeding fee from the bank. The banker lends him the money and comes by a week later to see how his investment is doing. The farmer complains that the bull just eats grass and won't even look at the cows. The banker tells the farmer that he knows a great veterinarian, and that he'll send him out the next day to check out the bull. The next week the banker returns to see if the vet helped. The farmer looks very pleased and tells the banker, "The bull has serviced all my cows, broke through the fence and has even servic
  20. A young doctor had moved out to a small rural community to replace the retiring country doctor. The older doctor suggested the young one accompany him on his house calls so the community could become used to a new doctor. At the first house a woman complained, "I've been a little sick to my stomach." The older doctor said, "Well, you've probably been overdoing the fresh fruit. Why not cut back on the amount you've been eating and see if that doesn't do the trick?" As they left, the younger doctor said, "You didn't even examine that woman. How did you arrive at your diagnosis so quickly
