Well, the harsh email worked for me. The guy appologized and said he wouldn't to it again. Apperantly, he has already had 23 complaints on spam against him. Google is very powerful...

Delete them, Ban them, or delete them and send a harshly worded email saying that If this dosen't stop, I will report you to your ISP

Has any one noticed that Unordered Lists in Cells are outside the cell? This is only occures in Firefox. I noticed this at http://forum.dutcholsentwins.com/en/index.php . The announcement has an Unordered list, In firefox, the bullets are outside the cell. Any one notice this?

I have figured out how this effect was done (the menu). This is not what I orignaly saw, but if someone can help me intigrate this idea into punbb style, I would appreciate it.

Anyone have any success yet?

I have been working on this for a while now, and recently, I have been getting a parsing error with a png image. Strange....

Think of this way, If you don't trust your Moderator, consider about getting new moderators.

After Much deleberation, I have decided to whip out the card.

Now that I have, I tried something new. I got rid of the drivers, then let the card instalation continue and leave the device unkown. Then manually install the driver off the disk. When I did this, while installing the driver, the systems hangs, then reboots on its own. I check the device manager, and I see a new error message in the Driver Information Box:

Windows Device Manager wrote:

Windows Stopped reasponding while attempting to start this device, and therefore will never attempt to start the device again [Code 1.1]

Could this whole problem be created by an old PSU?

Other observations:
When the system hangs, the power LED in the back of the card goes out.

Hmn....
Symptoms seem to be changing to a faulty psu. What do you guys think?

Well, its the weekend now, so I will re-start the process.

Hmph. Technology Sucks. Why can't things just work?
Haven't tried the XP thing yet, but as far as I can tell, I have narrowed down the problem. It has to do with the way windows builds the driver database. The driver in there is conflicting with newer, better driver, or something like that.

Well, the program that I have will only work in Windows 98 se.

Wait a minute!
*ding* the light bulb is on.

What if I install the win xp driver for the card off of the win xp cd?

Yeah, so maybe I'm not ment to be a detective. so?

Thanks for the help, I got it working.

Well, I'm giving up hope for this card. *Stuffs card in to plasitc bag, then shoves it into cardboard box*. Any suggestions on a Card that DOES work on 98?

Ok, thanks on the pun_ part, but how would I go about changing the table names?

Um...

Anyway, How would I go about adding the prefixes? Would the prefixes be like _pun?

Well, I have already started Punbb with out a prefix. Server is running phpmyadmin, so not a problem there. How would I go about backing up the data, and then adding prefixes, and then restoring the data for punbb?

Actually, the system freezes when a do that. And I actualy don't think PCI cards are "hot-swapable".

Um, each time I do restart, it hangs after windows starts up. I payed close attention, and I noticed that the exact time the systems freezes, the power light to the card goes out. And I do have the latest drivers installed.

Well, I have a program that can only run in Windows 98 SE, and nothing else. Have tried XP, and tried bringing down the compatibility, but didn't work. So, I was thinking about moving the system over to another room. Went out and got the above mentioned wireless card. Installed the drivers, and then when I plug the card into the pci slot and start up the system again, windows comes up with "New Hardware Found" window, but it freezes at that spot. I have no idea what to do. I have switched around PCI slots. The only otehr cards I have in there is a Video Card, and a sound card,  I doubt that that is the problem, but none the less... If anyone has an idea on how to solve the issue, please help (and please: no posts saying that I should return the card, I already know that option.)

I think he is saying people spam up the boards, so he wants ranking based on number of replies, not number of posts. I think thats it.

Well, I came to Punbb because it was the best choice for a free host, with a limited amount of bandwith. Punbb Rocks!

Well, I was going for the link you just posted. 1.png is just a test image for the background, and 2.png is the tint color I want in the cells. Maybe I didn't explain this properly in the first place. I want to be able to use a static Image in the background of punbb, then all the cells to be transparent, with a tint color. 2.png is a blue color, so if it becomes semi opaic, the bg image will show through, however, 2.png's color will add a tint effect.
Do I make sence now? Probably not but...

Hmn, in deep thought...

Where should I exactly put this code?

filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=0);
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='whatever.png');

Here:

BODY { background-image: url("1.png"); filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=0);
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='1.png') }

or here:

TR.punhead { background-image: url("2.png");
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=0);
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='2.png') }

And Should the second version have the src= to the bg image, or to itself? And the other way arround if it is the first version?

Had some time this today, so tried something. Can someone tell me if this is correct?

BODY { background-image: url("1.png");
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='2.png') }

The only thing that has changed is the bg color to bg image, and the tr.punhead. This is from the site HowToCreate.co.uk

Well, I am still working on the php part. If all fails, I'll guess I will modify the cookie system of punnb and gallery to work together. That way, users only have to log in once.
