Yes.  They seem to have started in the last couple of days.  Only at work though - I've got a poppie blockie at home.


Another reason to pay for activeboard, perhaps?  I'm tempted...

I'm using Netscape, at the moment, which like Mozilla, it theoretically blocks 'em. But this bad boy sneaks through and pops right up from time to time!

I wonder if the site admin know that someone's slipped some code in here to do this?

Apple Macs

They are crap pieces of crap for people who are scared of proper computers

I have fond memories of my dad's old Mac Classic.  Ahhhhh those were the days - nine inch mono screen!



Then they started trying to emulate PC's and it all went downhill.


Still pretty damn good for graphics work though!  And more stable than Windows...

i agree that macs do tend to be more stable than windows.. but please do tell me.. does the user manual come with a 'poser section' where owners of macs are informed 'to attempt to show off at all times, this should involve bragging about the fact and frequent shoving in the face of PC owners the fact that you are a mac owner, despite the fact they do not care.' ?

i reckon this is the best thing to have been done with an apple mac

They were once much better than pcs for graphics work, and they may still have the edge there but not for long as pcs are catching up fast, and will soon over take them.

I also dont know why mac users feel the need to tell me that they use them - I dont care.

Yes its more stable but i think thats what makes windows more fun to use - the russian roulette feeling of - will it blue screen before i finish this work or wont it?

If you follow a link that another user has set to another post, and then simoply continue browsing from there, it seems that the JDBB thinks you're the person who posted the link and all sorts of hilarity ensues - something to do with the address string containing info about who you are.  Bummer, really.


In this case, I suspect Joe may have looked at my link in the 'Bank Account' thread and then posted here.

Does anyone remember the old Amiga 'Toasters'?  They were the machine of choice for years for anyone (including ILM) doing any sort of cgi work

And there's always someone who can't be trusted not to abuse the loopholes.  I'm disappointed in you

Looks like I'm apologising again.  Embarassed



I have a packet of milky bar biscuits in my bag for you if that would help smooth out the wrinkles. (like JD's but filled with milky bar not jam)


If that isn't enough then I guess I am not worthy.
