You used to have to use >> and << but in the latest version you can use > and < The "Disable HTML in this post" checkbox helps when posting script The big problem here is that scripts can't run at the same time. When a script starts, all other scripts become frozen until it completes. This...

It is probably worth pricing Cafepress.com too. Last time I checked, they were more expensive than lulu, but that was like 5 years ago, things might have changed. I would expect createspace.com to be the cheapest. They are fully owned by Amazon, and so they can afford to undercut everybody else's pr...

I notice you said "double size pages". Does that mean that Lulu also has an option for smaller full-size pages? What if you made a version of the book with the same number of pages, but printed smaller? Personally I think I would like that a lot more than a version with fewer artists (but ...

And of course all the contributors will get an eBook version for free... I still gotta' figure out how to make that work. Personally, I don't mind paying for my own copy. I know Lulu does have volume discounts on their paperbacks, but I don't know if that applies to full-color stuff, nor at what qu...

I think when William Shatner appeared in that fan-movie about him appearing in a fan movie, it made things worse for all other star trek actors everywhere

When converting to ogg with Audacity, after you pick "Export" and choose Ogg as the file format, click on "Options" and take the quality down to 2. It will make the file size smaller, without any noticeable loss of sound quality. I even go down to 1 for some of my music. Audacity...

Looking at it a little more, I was wondering if you could re-order my pages slightly? I would like to have the last picture (Family Photo At The Park) moved to the beginning of my section. I like having it closest to my bio, and I don't want it to be mistaken for the conclusion of the action-hero se...

My impressions so far: A Hagen starts this book off with a bang. I really love his stuff. Over and over I keep thinking "this is great, I wish this was from a game" I love the variety. I wasn't expecting such a big range. I was pleasantly surprised when I got to Thiago Miglian's section a...

The e-mails are only supposed to be sent for certain things, like if you subscribe to a thread by checking "Notify me when a reply is posted" I think some of the stuff in the Arena also sent e-mails And of course, e-mail was needed for password recovery if you ever forgot yours. So if none...

It wouldn't help you if you don't have access to custom, it would only help you synchronize work between 2 or more computers that have custom installed.

Yeah, version control is great for this. I keep all my games in subversion. Use unlump to convert your rpg file into an rpgdir The only problem you are likely to run into is if you make a bunch of changes on one computer, forget to push them, then go to the other computer, make a bunch more changes,...

Well, partly the suggestion is from me wanting it to feel more like Mario2, but also I think it would be easier to set up combos if there were more ways to move. I often can't move a block to where I want it to go without causing it to complete a boring non-combo 2-match with one of the blocks I am ...

I was replaying this the other day, and I was wondering, have you tested how gameplay would change if the Wizard was allowed to jump?
