Neat. Kinda freaky, though, because for some reason it opened in Winamp instead of VLC, leaving VLC not doing anything only to have Winamp start playing it a minute later and me wondering WTF is playing it.

Yep, StyleXP is just an expensive GUI version of the utxtheme patch and doesn't even do it right. When you reboot, you have to re-apply your theme, which means you also need to re-do any changes you made to titlebar sizes and such and reset your wallpaper. It's a major pain.

Of course, if you want to make your own themes, it's a hell of a lot easier to just use Stylebuilder which requires StyleXP.

Those changable signs are fun. I saw one that said "Cool patio" and something else on a restaurant, and changed it to "Oily poo". People are always changing it, but nobody does anything about it.

They removed his pants and shoes and threw them over the telephone wires, wrote RAPIST on him in Magic Marker, and left him there. I have no idea whether or not the fuckstain ever got into legal trouble, but somehow I doubt he ever tried that again.


No... Someone like that, you drag to the ghetto, tie to a pole naked, and write rapist on them.

Posted on 07-30-05 01:48 PM, in Ever look for something because of a dream Link
I dunno how often I've said this but I saw Mario 64 in perfect detail in a dream before it came out.

Other cool and/or weird game-related dreams include:
-Being IN Mario Kart 64
-Finding a way to play N64 games on a SNES (I played Mario 64; there was no sound or textures though)
-Finding a bunch of Gameboy games on the street (but then the owner found me and I had to give them back)
-Finding a way to jump right inside a pipe in Super Mario Kart, which turned it into Super Mario RPG.
-Finding a way to get inside the castle in Mario Kart 64, which turned it into Super Mario 64, but I got to drive around the levels.

Weirdest dreams I've had:
-I was driving, when I felt I had to sneeze. So I pulled over, put the car in park, woke up, and sneezed!
-Just as I was hitting puberty I had one of those sex dreams everyone has. (No, it wasn't wet. ) Except... Princess Peach. Yeah. I still don't know WTF inspired THAT...
-For some reason, I went to some place in New York (nothing like the real NY). They had vending machines serving sliced pickles! So I wandered back, and this one stretch of road really stuck in my mind. Several months later, I'm there. A small town in BC, which I had NEVER been to before, containing that exact stretch of road...

Coolest:
-Flying! Whee!
-The one where I was in MK64.
-Just last night, I was on vacation in Japan. That was cool itself but the real cool thing was the place we were at. (I'm pretty damn sure it doesn't exist.) It's hard to describe but it was a house, and behind it was a 2-foot drop to a pond. The angle and size of it all made it look like you were right on the lake, when it was in fact in the middle of a large city. Very cool, not sure if it's even possible in real life though. (Then my cat went for a swim, a dog started chasing it, I kicked the hell out of said dog, it became winter, the dog was back and I kicked it again. )

My dreams are all in 3rd person like video games, probably from video games. Interestingly enough, though, I can't recall any dreams about anim

Posted on 07-30-05 01:55 PM, in Cop-ers around your place? Link
I have no car as of yet so tickets aren't an issue. I live at a busy intersection though, so there's a fair amount of cops. (Wish they'd catch people throwing trash on our lawn. ) They did one of those Ride Check things right outside the house a while ago. Didn't see anyone get busted, but one guy did stop a few meters away and turn around.

Also, fastest I've seen was my stepmom doing 150KM in a minivan in an 80 zone, to pass someone who was speeding. (No cops around, so everyone was speeding. ) Wheeee!

I block layouts that meet any of the following conditions, unless they're damn good:
  • Text in header, unless separated from post, written in different colour or made small. (WHAT makes people think that "I'm a level 102
    Star Mario and have 6141 postsYeah I thought that was cool too!" looks good? Even if there is a line break?)
  • Crappy background, or BG that makes it unreadable.
  • Bad text colour.
  • Takes forever to load, or doesn't load at all.
  • Poorly-coded causing rendering problems, or glitches up for some unexplained reason. (I think it was Kasumi-Astra's which looks good, but for some reason has its text colour changed when I use Proxomitron, though I can't find what exactly causes it, and it becomes unreadable. Also Kitten Yiffer's uses divs in a odd way that triggers a bug in Firefox making it scroll to the bottom of the page when I click it. )
  • Has a scrollbar. Scrolling layouts SUCK!
  • Huge images where there shouldn't be.
  • Bad use of tables (eg crowded post area, too much empty space, text area too small).
  • Crappy animated GIFs.
  • Contains Flash. (||bass's is soooo close to this, but the rest of it is cool so I don't mind. Imoto's also escapes because it's just a small unobtrusive clock. )
  • Text too big, too small, or bad font (especially Terminal which only shows up as blotches for me).
  • Just plain sucks.


I also usually temp-block layouts that are broken or whose server is down, until they can be fixed. Though sometimes I forget to unblock them. And I disable layouts entirely at school, because most of the school computers suck, and their connection is way slow even on the good computers. (Actually, in most cases I don't even log in because of all the spyware, so I don't see the layouts. I type my password by copying and pasting things into Notepad, so keyloggers don't get it, and just copy that into the password box whenever I post.)

What I feel makes a good layout is, well, like mine.
  • Simple - not a whole lot of images or text everywhere.
  • Good colours that don't clash.
  • Uses up the entire post area. It really sucks when the post area is 900 pixels wide but there's only 3 words on a line.
  • Small filesize, ~50K or less. (I know, I violated that a few times... This one's only like 20K though.)
  • Stable; server doesn't crash every 8 minutes.
  • Does not contain stupid Tripod images and other such nonsense. (Test, people!)
  • Stretches well. The worst type of layout is that which is based entirely around one image. Scrolling layouts suck hard. (With clever use of tables it's really not hard to make a stretchable layout that looks like one big image, depending on the image. If not, use a different image.)
  • Doesn't waste a lot of space. No 800x600 images in headers, please (and yes, I've seen this done ). Images are alright if not too big; the text area should be at least 75% of the height and width of the entire layout.
  • Doesn't contain disturbing, gross, or just plain stupid content.
  • Is adaptable. A good layout will look good on any board theme, in any browser, at any resolution from 800x600 and up. (640x480 is not a resolution you should be surfing with. Nor anything below 1024x768, really.)
  • NO GIANT WEBSITE BANNERS! A small text link or maybe a non-animated (or simply-animated, like a moving dot or something) banner similar in size to your average ad banner is fine. A banner that takes up 1/4 of the screen is NOT!


Since I don't intend to change my layout anytime soon, I had a neat idea for one. Use the board's CSS to make a layout similar to whatever scheme the user is using!
