Don't know why I'm posting this

Most fruits and vegetables are prohibited from
entering the United States .

Poor things.

Fruit.

I went from Canada into the US a couple of years back.

Some guys at the immigration check point next to us got fined $1,000 dollars for almost taking fruit into the US.

How much fruit? A single orange.

Jesus. How much would a bunch of grapes been?

Or do many grapes equal one orange?

Is there a fruit ratio? The public deserve to know!

Oow!

i'd go there

vaguely reminds me of when Joel used to blog on rathergood. He'd find the most dull sites and insist on blogging them. I liked it.

It was fun

kind of an anti-blog. I used to email people with fatuous questions as well. that was fun too. we should maybe start doing that on b3ta?

Quick Question...

..While tring to do a fake webpage, my Photoshop and PhotoEditor keeps showing the image at less than 100% ruining the resolution. How can I stop it doing so and keep the image at 100%?
Cheers.

(Frankie, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 7:58, archived)

Obviously...

..This is happening after I've saved it and when wanting to upload to my host.
Rather infuriating :mad:

(

rob, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 8:13, archived)

Thanks...

But as I say, this problem occurs after I've saved the file. When I try to open it again (either in PhotoEditor or other jpeg viewer), it's at 50% size. Can I default this to 100% size?
Sorry if I'm not explaining myself too well and thanks again for trying.

(Frankie, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 8:28, archived)

and how does it look

if you drag and drop it into your browser window?

(

rob, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 8:38, archived)

I think

Photoshop will always open an image at a zoom level that fits on screen without using scroll bars.

SO you need either a bigger screen resolution or smaller images

(

flibz, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 8:38, archived)

Thanks for your help chaps...

I'll give those suggestions a go.
I don't have this problem with any other files. Just ones that consist of fake browsers...
Interesting.

Code Idea: "Is this a well used domain name?"

1. Take a dictionary file from net
2. Export to database
3. Get random word
4. Display 2 HTML frames
5. 1 frame has "This is MONKEY.com - is this a well used domain name? YES, PASS, NO" (make sure buttons are ALWAYS in same place)
6. 2nd frame has www.monkey.com in it.
7. Clicking yes will vote +1 on the site
8. clicking yes or no will add +1 to the site views
9. clicking PASS will add nothing to the data.
10. The 1st frame should also list the 10 last rated sites with the percentages.

nice....

that's a cool idea. And quite easy to do too.

A bit sensible tho.....

Checked the embedex of late ?
Got daily stats in place now.

I can start doing some proper analysis & scoring soon...

(

flibz, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 7:28, archived)

bit sensible?

maybe. Just trying to think of ideas based upon my behavor. I.e. I used to like playing the random word URL and wondering if we could add something extra to it.

(

rob, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 7:33, archived)

you could make it

monkey.com
versus a made up page of random quotes and images pulled off google featuring that search term - if that makes sense.

(

monkeon schmonkeon, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 7:36, archived)

Oh. And I look forward to the proper stats

having stuff going up and down is what's gonna make it. Er... and a way of filtering out old stuff. Have you looked into that?

(

rob, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 7:35, archived)

I've got some ideas

I have an "updated since last read" checksum based on length of returned page & some other gubbins.

I need a few days data in place so I can look at scoring...

And a new PC. You may have noticed a decrease in performance :(

Oh yeah, that reminds me, Crab Bloke,

on the hope you don't mind subject...hope you don't mind you're photos being used to demonstrate various childish games on the new site, but you show the games off so well. Can anyone think of any more similar childish games to add to this page?

(Nacho, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 7:08, archived)

That's lovely Nacho

and of course I don't mind. I play various silly games- like this or this or this
Used to play all of those in australia. never seem to play many games any more. must play games again.

My pet Gimp

would play the chilli one anyway. He eats anything for a dare. Filthy little chick. Luckily I wasn't around when he ate a whole tin of cat food. Seen him do a large spoonful of hot mustard.
And I thought the facial taping game was dangerous but your other 2 games - blimey! You moon-tic.

But...

you posted that on the net, thereby destroying any hint of credibility it may have.

I therefore propose that everything on the net is true, and therefore false. The certainty of falsehood on the grounds of diminished responsibility and that means everything should be kicked to the the ground and everything else burned (I think). Crap I'm bored...

Its quite fun

to ignore all their attempts to sell you stuff, and instead try and sell them some crap from your garage.

Even better, get the phone number of the company, the guys name, and say you'll get back to him. Leave it a couple of days, ring him up and THEN try and sell him some crap from your garage.

(

Lumpbucket tekcubpmuL, Tue 12 Feb 2002, 6:49, archived)

Yes

if I'm bored sometimes I let them go on and on before I tell them to fuck off. Is that sad?
