"When I get John, I'll give him two black eyes," Corey shouted as he slammed his right fist into his left hand.

"Why? What happened?" Dad asked.

"John hit me in the eye with his elbow," Corey said, pointing to a small bruise under his right eye.

"I'm sorry you got hit," said Dad. "John probably didn't mean to hit you with his elbow though."

"It still hurts," answered Corey with a pout.

"It probably does," said Dad. "So now you want to give John two black eyes? If you did that, what do you think John would want to do?"

"Probably hurt me worse," answered Corey.

"And so it could keep on going. Each time somebody would hurt the other one worse than before. Do you think it would be a good idea to let that go on for a month?"

"No, I guess not," said Corey.

"How can you stop it from going on?" Dad asked.

"Well, I guess I just won't hit him at all," Corey said.

That was a much better plan than Corey's first answer to the situation.

The Bible says, "Do not say, 'I'll do to him as he has done to me.' " Jesus prayed even for those who nailed him to the cross. He said, "Father, forgive them." Jesus forgives everybody's sins.

Christians may defend themselves, but God's Word says, "Don't say, 'I'll do to him as he has done to me."

Jesus showed us something better than getting even. He told us to turn the other cheek.
So, what do you say Random, can we end this personal battle of ours? Let's be special friends instead. Deal?

That ... story was pretty funny, GameMaster. But, it was just another way to cover your side of the "conflict" ¦¬Þ

Oh well, I'll convert just for you.

And Jonbo, glad you like the song... maybe I'll post more desktop images then :sneaky:

I didn't either, but if you look at the bottom of the page when you are posting something it says Attach Files: and you have to hit the thing that says Manage Attachments. It's right before the Submit Reply button.

Click manage attachments below where you type your post (can't be done in quick post, can only be done in a traditional post). Then choose a file from your computer to upload, then click "add this file" and wait for it to appear to the list and then when it does click "all done".

meh, it'll change soon. Just a style that I like.

Make sure to save it as a .jpg or .jpeg. They are much smaller than a .bmp.

To do this, when you save it, click the drop down arrow next to the box that displays what kind of file it is, then choose .jpg.

GameMaster 09-18-2003 07:38 PM

Re: post yer desktop
 
You should never use bit map format.

It's very old and out of date.

Jpeg is much, much better.

The quality of the picture is better and the size of the file is compressed much better in jpeg format.

Blade Runner 09-18-2003 07:38 PM

finally, here it is
 
I was saving it with too much quality and it was makin the file 2x the size limit :-/ Anyways, here it is null :p (thats trill 2.0 btw)...

Indeed, your Winamp skin is cool, but it'll never measure up to the real Mac OS X and iTunes. ;)

If you like that skin a lot, perhaps you should consider buying a Mac simply for the desired look and nothing more. Although, you wouldn't be able to resist the rest of what OS X offers for even a second. :D

Resistance is futile. Think different. :vader:

maybe not in looks. :P But i've used almost every media player i know of, and Winamp is still my favorite, so many options yet such a clean simple setup. plays so many formats too.


And ya, looks cool blade

lol. He's saying thats not the real 'my computer' icon on your desktop.

its a link to the 'my computer' desk top.

so in one way of thinking of it. you have a link, to a link, on your desktop.

(the little box with the arrow on it in the bottom left on icons means its a link and not the real thing)

nah, it's not a link to a link. it takes me to 'My Computer' I just copied the link at some point...can't remember when

Null 09-19-2003 08:55 PM

Re: Re: Re: Re: post yer desktop
 
well in theory, the real 'my computer' icon is a link to open up explorer and goto that place to start off with., a link in the sence of the word. not a link link. :hmm:

so yours would be a link.....to that link. lol i didnt say it takes you anywhere else. :p

Explorer is a link? Because when I click on that link on my computer, I get a list of my drives/folders.

I don't see how that's a double link...but whatever...this is starting to sound like a discussion about Zelda games :p

Null 09-19-2003 10:17 PM

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: post yer desktop
 
lol. if you understand how it works. you can see how it is a link. Explorer is IE, and the windows explorer, same thing really explores your computer.
The one that lists folders and programs and such. the 'my computer' icon is basically a link to that explore feature that tells it to goto the drive list area.

bah, nevermind. :p

Lol, Cyrax, I think you need to toss some things out of your dock, unless you use it all, you don't have to have everything in it.

Anyway, congratulations, and nice desktop. :D :)
