    My coding isn't working

    If it's not in the source, and there's no other files adding it in later (e.g., JavaScript), then it's not there, period. Are you sure you saved/published the file after you added the text? --- Mr. DOS

    Christmas Theme for my blog

    I like the header. Suggestion: make the nearly-black borders around the posts lighter (maybe about half the lightness of the grey line separating the grey and white sections of the post), and add a subtle gradient shade (8-12px high and not very dark) at the bottom of the post. I'm assuming...

    Review my 3 month old website

    It looks nice, although fairly typical for Wscript. Still, you have some nice wallpapers on there. Where do you source them from? --- Mr. DOS

    Please review my site

    Pst - the link in your original post is still wrong (it points to http://www.xoriodet.elementfx.com.i/, not http://www.xoriodet.elementfx.com/). Also, FYI, you do not need the www. There's no sense in having your logo at the bottom. Move it up to the top, possibly right above "Welcome to...

    What's your favourite Operating System?

    Thanks :) It'll be interesting to see how it turns out long-term. Visually, it's very similar to Vista, so people who held issue with the ludicrous amounts of shine in Vista will have the same problem with 7. I don't think we'll see it become another eight-year long-distance runner like XP, but...

    Starbucks Coffee

    Oh, yeah, me neither. Unless an iced capp counts as coffee. Which, IMHO, it shouldn't. 17, if we want to apply this to me too. --- Mr. DOS

    Make this type of 404 page

    IE6 only displays a website-provided 404 page if it's longer than 512B and as-is, your error page is only 337B. This may be a wild goose chase, but what if IE7 and 8 and Chrome do the same as IE6? Try padding your HTML with a long enough comment to bring the page size over that minimum, or start...

    My coding isn't working

    It looks like your CSS is working. What text are you seeing? The only content I see in the page body is an image. Is content just not appearing when you add it? It's possible that it's being hidden underneath the absolutely-positioned image. You can position the image normally and get the same...

    Gaming on a Mac

    I just wanted to pop in to recommend that nobody buy the Valve Complete Pack right now. If you're thinking about buying it, I would suggest you wait until L4D2 is released, instantly adding another $50 value to the package (and saving you having to buy it separately, if you were going to). If...

    Please help me with this one.

    I am not blindly faithful in Microsoft's products, nor, I hope, anyone else's. Whatever gave you that idea? I just think it more likely that an externally-produced sound file would manage to slip something like this through as opposed to one created in-house. Although, in reality, who opens up...

    Starbucks Coffee

    Bah. Gimme a Timmies Iced Cappuccino and then get off my lawn, durn kids ;) --- Mr. DOS

    What's your favourite Operating System?

    I am really liking the improved window management in Windows 7. Drag a window's taskbar to the top of the screen or Winkey+Up to maximize it, to the left or right or Winkey+Left or Right to resize it to take up that half of the screen, or Winkey+Down to minimize it. It's great for dual monitors...

    How often do you visit your site?

    It depends on the site. I'm on the more community-oriented ones several times a week if not daily. Static sites, on the other hand, get checked a couple times a month or so just to make sure they're still working as expected. --- Mr. DOS

    Additional Changes

    Thanks Corey! Yeah, what is it, $3 for a one-year inactivity timer? Or do you mean purchase a paid hosting package? Because those are excellent deals too. --- Mr. DOS

    Please help me with this one.

    And I seriously doubt Microsoft has yet done such a thing, or at least, hasn't had it uncovered yet. Far more likely is that they outsourced for the audio files and whatever company produced them was running the pirated software without Microsoft's knowledge. --- Mr. DOS

    SmallBASIC (v0.7)

    Pedantic comment: it's written as Small Basic, not SmallBASIC. It looks neat, but honestly, I'm still glad QBasic was the only thing on hand when I started learning; while I did pick up a case of the GOTO bug, I still learned a lot from it. I'm not really sure this is such a good thing for...

    My coding isn't working

    You're putting your CSS in a place where it doesn't belong, and that's why it's not doing anything. I don't know if your monitor's wide enough to see it, but it's actually just displaying as text to the right side of the image. Your HTML should look more like this: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC...

    How much RAM do you have?

    6GB in my gaming machine, 3GB in my laptop, and 2GB in my workstation which hasn't been upgraded to 4GB because it's an older Dell Precision that's incredibly picky about what RAM it gets. --- Mr. DOS
