Website issues19th February 2010 [quote=mindstorm8191]Spybot runs only as a search application, there's no resident checker of any kind.[/quote] Not entirely true; Spybot S&D has resident "Teatimer" componant which prevents registry changes etc. |

Talking to websites11th January 2010 Almost! With POST there is a special format to encode the data, which I only touched on above. Basically you must put it in the format that could be used for URLs (web addresses). * It is all on one line with no 'white space' * Fields are stored as key *snip* |

3d games28th December 2009 Last time I was experimenting with 3D modelling. Now I want to put them to use. The idea I have is of a game where you fly about on dragons and knock or shoot other players off. The brief is "Mount&Blade, but flying", except very simple to start. :) Can a*snip* |

3D modelling23rd November 2009 That price is a little bit steep considering I want to make some low-poly models of dragons and trees and stuff. I have found some info about Blender (free software) and Milkshape (shareware?), any good? I will take a look there too. |

Exercise!13th July 2009 I do about 20 miles every day on my push bike (commuting - I don't drive). I don't do it primarily for exercise, but it does keep me fit! I prefer the outdoors to being in a gym. |
