Noted! Beam spring = back and forth. Thanks.

How can I block that revolver-skull-header image?


Seriously, this is not a Wild-West-Cowboy forum, or is it?


Please, replace it by this images:

See here: http://deskthority.net/deskthority-rela ... tml#p86251

Please don't even reply if you are using Internet Explorer or any ridiculously outdated browser. I'm sure there is a plugin like Stylebot for Firefox if that's your thing.

Thanks, but it is gone already!


Also: I'm using Netscape Navigator!

I was planning to make the site play this tune in the background while this header is visible:
P.S. This will be our official club song.

Oh, which version? Got the very latest* 7.02 here: Has a few issues. *for Mac OS 9.

Nice! Yes, I endorse.

First try

Mind, blown.

There are people who remained using Mac OS 9 after me? Seriously? I thought I went down with the ship.

(I do remember playing with Mozilla in Mac OS 9 and, while the XUL UI was extremely slow, Gecko was a lot faster than any other Mac browser — this was on my Motorola StarMax 4000/200 PPC 604e 200 MHz. In particular, it was orders of magnitude ahead of iCab 3.)

No, your last-man-drowning cred remains, Daniel. I'm just trying it out in Classic as 7bit reminded me I still had Netscape kicking around on my old PowerBook. The result of my test: DT's not entirely usable. No surprise there!

Although I am posting this from OmniWeb on another old PowerPC Mac (the 10 year old swivel iMac I use for music) and the whole site's perfect. Well, except those YouTube embeds, but…

Cherry logo is covered by the top-right links. A bit down and it should fit.

Perfect photo. Now turn the space bar around and take the same photo again.

I'll fix it tomorrow when the sun is up again

Nooooooo! The most important part is this, and it must not be cut:

You shout down your Sun each day?

I'm thinking of getting Netscape Navigator 3.04 .... to run in the Mac emulator on my Amiga 500. I've already posted here using an Amiga browser, but I think posting in a Mac emulation on the A500 is the next step.

Very nice. Maybe it should be shifted a bit to the right. (but then again, maybe not)

7bit, I cropped dubs' photo for him. I tried it a little bit down.. It looks nicer as is I think.

If you want to experiment yourself then : http://www.flickr.com/photos/99760972@N03/10235506683/

I think moving the photo down a little bit to fit the cherry logo in would be a good idea...tomorrow

I thought that photo might make for a good header as well

Like this! As said...board more to the right and spacebar properly placed it would look perfect.

Here you go, I placed the spacebar as it should be and I moved the keyboard a little bit to the right

edit* I'm not 100% sure about the quality on this one.

The first one was perfect, except for the space bar!

yep, the other one looked more crispy somehow. did you changed camera?

The first shot was a bit closer (see how many keys fit in each of them) and had the shiny desktop in front as well as behind the keyboard. I like them both, but the extra desk reflection really makes the original.

I guess this is what we're looking for then?

That's it!

Perfect!


Thank you very much, thread closed.

Considering that SP do every known and unknown shade of grey keycap, you could actually put that look off ...
