Don't pour COKE in your computer!
« on: December 04, 2008, 08:44:37 pm »
During the recent holiday... I poured a coke in my computer and my computer didn't like it... didn't like it a bit{pun}, so I grabbed a new motherboard and some parts and rebuilt it... that went fast, reloading all the STUFF is an on going process.

In today's episode we find Jake trying to figure out WHY Audrey looks correct in PeoplePutty but not in HAL, what's up with the blocky hair... anyone know? (see below)...

Jake a while back Robert asked another member not to post big pictures because it caused all members to have to scroll to be able to read any post. I thought I would just give you a heads up before he has to ask you the same thing.
I like your pictures but they would be just as enjoyable if posted one under the other.

I'll see if it will let me edit the post to decrease the image size... did Robert say what the preferred image size is?

Thanks for the heads-up... Jake

I went to "My Files" here on the website to attempt to delete the original image that I uploaded... I found it, clicked on the Delete button and got this error page...

I am suprised no one has commented on your original query, it seems strange. Hope you find the answer.

I think that I found your pictures easier to see when they were bigger.

Hi Jake
I guess anything goes that does not exceed the 80 character width of the normal screen for Zabaware.
Good pictures though.

Yep... the bigger pix do make it easier to catch the details... but I totally agree about pix that either make you have to scroll, or in some message boards, the thread expands to the largest pix, so every message is like 200 character wide... I hate that.  So thanks again for the heads-up... now that I have this very wide screen, (1920x1200), I sometimes forget about those very sound rules.

On the blocky hair thing, I think I may just need to reinstall the Haptek player only... I'll try it tonight.

Thanks all,
The Jake
