  1. I use logmein free and often need to move files between my two computers. Generally, I move the file to my server, then download it, but it takes longer because of the intermediate step. Is there a lightweight program that lets me move files between 2 online computers?
  2. Agreed - hosting is already cut-throat as hell. If you are going to offer hosting, you better have a way to get customers besides low prices, because there are sites that offer hosting for $1/month, $0/month (http://www.absolutely-free-hosting.com/free_hosts_01.php)... hell, there's probably someone out there who'll host your site free and give you a cut of the ads he puts on it.
  3. @lostprophetpunk - when you say the background, are you referring to the blocks or the finished basement? The "we are committed" text will probably end up being a video. Thanks for the advice, I'll take the advise into account tonight when I markup the real version.
  4. http://trenttompkins.com/jd.html I was going for a high-end, web-2.0 kind of look. The text in first box will probably be replaced by a video player. What do you think? It's for a basement waterproofing company that also does home improvement.
  5. \( would be cool to use if it wasn't used in regex. Then you could do: "You have $x item\(s)" "There are nine fish\(es)" That would really screw up regex though.
  6. Not really fair to target Gigabyte and Asus, the reason that people have problems with them isn't that there bad boards, it is that they are marketted towards builders who may or may not know what they are doing, and are using a huge array of different hardware. I can vouch for Asus but my Gigabyte board ran great for years (probably still works if I'd dust it off)
  7. I have the best idea ever for a language addition, a new escape character, \s It would look at the first proceeding numeric string, and evaluate to 's' unless it equaled 1. So, lets say you wanted to write: You have $x item(s) in your cart Instead of having to write: echo "You have $x item".($x==1?'':'s')." in your cart"; You could write: echo "You have $x item\s in your cart"; What do you guys think? I'd like to see it in PHP6.
  8. I made this one: http://flashgamereviews.com/ It's for reviews but you can play the games too. It has an awesome backend, that handles the image gallery and videos. The site also automatically saves a local copy of the swf from a url.
  9. I need money. I am trying to either get site contracts, or get hired either part time or as a 1099. I've managed to sell a few jobs, but I need to get a site up for me and a site for my company. My personal site is coming together pretty quick: trenttompkins.com Putting it together is really just a matter of cleaning up my past works. The company site, tristatewebservices.com, is where I'm having trouble. I have no content. I, personally, have worked on a ton of stuff, but the company is brand new. About the only thing I have is a name, logo and color scheme. Any tips on getting it put together? (design, content, anything?)
  10. Take a look at my half-way revised personal portfolio. http://trenttompkins.com/ I'm going to try and get the content in there today. Eventually I want to add a picture of me above the about box, holding the contact information.
  11. I don't want to erase them, just show and hide their visibility.
  12. Personally I think they are stupid, unless maybe you are using them in a template or some other kind of code that will be distributed. I use PHP comments, since they don't come through in the end output: <?php /* see.. awesome */ ?>
  13. Sorry - I'm redoing my site. g.exe is avg, I stuck it up there because my aunt had malware that wouldn't let her load regular webpages.
  14. What do you think of this? http://trenttompkins.com/card3.png Keep in mind I'm giving this to local business owners. There not going to know the difference between a serif and a sans-serif font, or that the glow effect is sometimes over-done.
  15. Because 'web design' seems to be where the money is at. I'm a PHP / Flash developer more than anything.
  16. What do you guys think? http://trenttompkins.com/card2.png
  17. It is 2, high-res, vectorized photoshop documents business card size - I put the front and back together in one image and shrunk it so you could see what it looked like online, it's just a preview image.
  18. Does anyone know where I can get some nice form for freelancing? Things like invoices, sales forms, ect?
  19. What do you guys think? trenttompkins.com/card.png
  20. The logos are for Green Apple Barter and the Better Business Bureau. I know what you mean about it being plain but I don't want it to look so ornate that it either: 1) turns off a generally conservative local market 2) emphasizes design so much it detracts from programming and e-commerce services I am thinking about either buying this template: http://graphicriver.net/item/spark-business-card/43885 or keeping the design I have but getting it printed on frosted glass with a white swipe so it doesn't look so bland.
  21. What it really boils down too is being able to setup emails, through PHP, on the afc1886.com server. What control panel are you using? Plesk and WHM both have command-line ways to make new mail accounts. I'm sure you can do it just with PHP and qmail (provided you are using qmail) but I'm not sure how, since we use Plesk at work. To create a new email user from PHP, you run a command like: `/usr/local/psa/bin/mail.sh -c tom@afc1886.com -cp_access true -mailbox true -passwd 12345`; But it only works with Plesk, on Linux, if the path is right.
  22. What do you guy think? trenttompkins.com/card.png Clean and professional or bland and bare?
  23. I have no idea what this does or why it works, but I found it on a forum and it solved my problem. cmd> netsh winsock reset Then restart the computer.
