There are several of us who’d appreciate being able to upload their own avatars, and I haven’t heard anyone against it [they’ve only been against seizure magnets], so what would it take to turn uploading on so that we can have custom ones?

Uranus It’s the same host I’ve used for all my previous contests, and it’s always worked before, so I don’t think it’s my host.

Schnee Don’t worry about it, the “intertubes” get clogged sometimes and you get weird results, it happens. More importantly, I wanted to thank you for everything you do in keeping the FSM up and running, we all appreciate it.

[RcMacStudent]

Yeah, I noticed that it was just my 3 – everyone else’s were there and looking good. I was wondering if it was something I had caused or if it was just one of those things that just happens sometimes.

FWIW, I just checked the thread and your pictures are loading fine for me, so the issue isn’t your links.

No, we don’t have a ‘big brother’ who watches for rule violations.

As long as I’ve been here (the last 2 months) it’s really been a self regulating/honor system to follow the rules each week. Occasionally somebody does overstep the rules and then the community usually steps in to tell them not to do it again. Overall the people on Fark are pretty good about following the rules (at least for Farktography, I don’t watch the PSAEF so I don’t how many problems they have) and the occasional violation is often done in ignorance by a random liter.

…None of us is as dumb as all of us put together.

Precisely.

You’re absolutely right, I totally misread that.

FWIW I’ve never heard of midwest, much less bought anything from them – which really isn’t anything against them as much as it shows how much I like Newegg.

[RcMacStudent]

… and no i have no vested interest in the site having just learned of it today. so when they don’t ship or sell your info don’t come looking for me :)….

Actually, I have used Newegg.com for all my computer parts for the last several years. Very good customer support, and (almost always) the best prices to be found for computer and/or electronic parts.

/No, I don’t work for them. I just build computers.

Were you doing some blood trailing early this morning?

The paw print looks like that of a dog (probably domestic based on how wide spread the fingers are.) And the blueish/whiteish stuff looks like the the florescent dye that they spray on blood to make it really visible.

When using Photobooth you see the the video feed from the webcam with whatever digital “filters” are in effect at that time. You click the button and it takes the picture after a five count.

I just want to make sure that he knows not to use the memory card since he deleted the pictures, because if he did the chances of recovering anything go down very quickly.

Also, here’s a link to the software that I use to recover files. The software is Iolo System Mechanic 7, it’s an all in one system utility tool and it has a wonderful file recovery tool as well I’ve used it on hard drives, memory cards, and USB pen drives. Best of all it’s shareware so buy it if you like it, and if not, you didn’t waste any money over it.

I primarily use my Canon Rebel XTI (also known as the 400D), though I have been known to borrow a Kodak EasyShare Z40 when I need something a little smaller. I also have a Pentax ZX-M that I’ve been known to pull out on occasion.

[RcMacStudent]

I haven’t been, but looking at the overall response combined with the point about making sure they’re tracked by FSM, I will now.

[RcMacStudent]

You might check out KEH.com they buy/sell lots of used equipment, though I don’t know how their prices are.

[RcMacStudent]

Thanks for the clarification. Sounds like Schnee has the consensus.
