Sorry for the double post, but had to point out one more thing. As for the delay, it can be eliminated by right-clicking your Live Bookmark and selecting reload. I'm not sure how RSS works on the server side, but maybe the "auto-refresh rate" (if something like that exists (it seems to exi...

Eureka! I got it :!: The RSS list is "upside down!" Check it out, on this site, the column on the left has the most recent threads at the top of the list, while the RSS feed has it at the bottom! LOL! I think Cameron should invert the RSS feed list so as to conform to the standards we are ...

Or, instead of using invites, just go to http://www.google.com/accounts and create yourself an account. A Google account can be signed up for, but that does not give you a Gmail account. The only way to get into Gmail, is to be invited. Just ask anybody with a Gmail account for an invite, even stra...

@ Alpha: It seems great minds think alike! I was just checking the wikipedia on xUbuntu, when I came across the Christian Edition of Ubuntu. Now I see you've posted it here. What a coincidence! you know i just think they have run out of ideas... Or a group of Christian Linux coders got this bright i...

Howzit,

Just checking up. So, Admin, Cameron, have you given the RSS idea any thought?

It would be pretty neat.

Howzit guys, A cool idea just popped into mind. How lekker would it be if there was an RSS feed for the "Last 15 technical messages" and "Last 15 Chillout...relax messages?" Anybody using Firefox will know of "Live Bookmarks." I have BBC, M&G, wikihow and others ins...

I could only get it down to 70kb and the results were pretty... pretty nasty!!!

I think I'll leave it for now, and just use the basic animated gif. I'm actually procrastinating, need to get back to studies. Paper on Tuesday.

Ciao...

P.S. Thanks for the comments and suggestions...

Okay, for now let's forget trying to get it to fit this websites specifications. Let's talk in general. You know those fast frames between the ones that last for two seconds? I'm talking about the ones that move very fast. If I drop the colour on them (coz they move so fast you won't notice) will th...

**Changed the title to reflect the new problem** Finally got it! I used Filters > Map > Map object. Anyway, even after Gimp's built-in optimiser, The file comes to 192kb. I rotated the pic 360 degrees in increments of 15 degrees. Here's the file: http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/9570/completeoptns...

Howzit all,

See my avatar? I'm trying to animate it so that it will rotate about the Z axis. How would I do this in The Gimp?

Any help much appreciated.

I get the feeling they made it version 2.0 instead of 1.6 so that it looks like they've got something new to put up against IE 7... It certainly beats IE 7, but it's not going to lure me away from Konqueror just yet ;) It's got a pretty neat "Phishing Protection" system. Firefox 2 contain...

From your new avvie, I see you're a fellow social beer-guzzler.

Maybe this ring will come in handy for you too!?

Thanks, that's a practical tip. But this is more for the novelty aspect. Plus I'll probably buy a couple to give to friends/family.

Anybody else have a clue?

Thanks.
