Title: I joined, sorry
Post by: simplethinker on September 14, 2007, 01:41:00 pm
I've been a member to UTI for a couple years, and I want to become active in other parts of the community.  I program mostly in TI-BASIC.  My hobbies include programming, school, programming, eating and sleeping, and when I'm bored programming useful things for math.

PS: I'm moving tomorrow, so all my food's packed up.  Hurry with those peanuts!!!! I'm starving!!!!!! :banghead:banghead.gif

(I can play dead) :pop:xplod.gif

Heya I'm glad to see you there as well :)smile.gif I hope you like the place :)smile.gif

But question: why does everyone seems sorry about joining? o.oblink.gif I mean they put I joined, sorry as topic title there,s nothing to be sorry about joining. In fact we welcome all new people or people from other forums (except spambots) :)smile.gif

jon: you say this is an old topic?? lol: http://www.yaronet.com/posts.php?s=36295

now that I think about it since yaronet still have the topics from the original omnimaga forums from back in the days I could copy the front page from webarchive and edit it and link to all old sub forums on yN. I would also edit my yN account so it says Kevin9999 again like in the old days (*DJ Omnimaga

Welcome simplethinker. Take the cashews; they are better much than peanuts anyways. ;)wink.gif


btw: Jon, your avatar is bringing my old P4 1.8GHz to it's knees. :oops:embarassed.gif  Maybe you could resize it for me; so my lappy (and Firefox) will not have to work so hard to dynamically resize it every time I move scrollbar. :Ptongue.gif

Well... jon's avatar is 165Kb (which is not bad) but it is 1024x768 pixels. So, it is getting dynamically resized every time I move my scrollbar -- which is a big CPU hit for an old 1.8GHz P4.

Yeah... Insanity's avatar kills my CPU too. :(sad.gif


I know... I know... It's time to upgrade. My laptop is over 5 years old now.  :gah:fou.gif

ooh I see, but 1.8 GHz isn't that bad imo o.oblink.gif i had a pentium II 350 MHz 2 years ago :Dbiggrin.gif

I guess I'll ask him to resize his avatar :Ptongue.gif

 Well... I think it is Firefox (I am using v2.0.0.6).

I just tried Opera 9.22, and everything works fine. I also tried IE 6 with no problems either.

Oh well.
