Just a quick question regarding some HTML im having an issue with.
On my site Im using images as links in a navbar, but despite the fact that ive defined the background to be black and the dimentions of the image code to match the actual gif file, I still get a blue border round the image.
Any ideas on how to remove it?

I have no idea. I'm jewish.

The topic starter is a little misguided. People are the sum of their experiences. This means that to BE you the person born billions of years later, the person would have to be born in the same place, to the same mother and father, with all the other infinite variables exactly the same.
This is impossible, so the scenario outlined in the first post is flawed
Interesting concept though

We have enough VX Nerve gas to kill every single person in the entire world. And more nukes than any country in the world to back it up. We can do alot more damage if we wanted to, but, unlike your retarded point of view states, we will not.
The EU is barely a strong union. All of those countries won't step in if one gets killed, and not one of them has nukes or an ample amount of WMDs.
What was the point of this post again? Sounds like you are trying to over-compensate for something. The topic is that the topic starter reckons that Americans average out to be the most arrogant nation. The point is not about who can kill more stuff.
BTW, The UK has nukes
Just trying to make you a little less ignorant

Welcome to the BBS. Perhaps a bit more though should have gone into your inaugural post though.
We all know NG rocks.

Cool Cool. Just checking that you werent being deprived of all the comedy goodness. Definetly recommended for all.
Ach I know you got the python movies. Hot fuzz is indeed the shit.
Just wondering; was Shaun of the Dead ever released in the states? What about Hot Fuzz.
If so what one did you like best?
Just wondering if British comedy classics ever made it to the US. If not you're missing out! =P
I think this stupidity is infectious. I can feel my IQ lowering
Looking back to the start f the topic and reading through, you'll see that (mainly in refrence to chocolate penguin) I say that its the arrogant Americans that are the vocal ones, and theyre spoiling it for the rest of the country. Ive got nothing against the majority of Americans, and have yet to slander it.
I only singled out the south as worse (even then in a non-serious way) because of all the cartoons and whatnot.
I wouldnt loose it it you started discussing Scotland, but Id single you out and shoot you down if you started slagging Scotland.
At least you can be reasonable about it when asked
So to sum up, America - good, loudmouth arrogant farts - bad
Here we go again.

The way I am portraying him is not as someone I am hacked off by. I am poking fun at him because he has given up logical arguments and instead implied shouting at the computer. You dont poke fun at someone if youre that mad. You shout. Im not shouting.
Im not going to bother with point by point owning of your "arguments", and instead once more draw attention to your scrutiny of only spelling, not the issues.Hm.....so I guess if someone disagrees with you they do not have an arguement?
No, if someone disagrees with me, fine, but try to point out the flaws in my logic with structured arguments, not by throwing in the towel and ranting.
Plus im sorry to say that if Scotland simply ceased to exist, that probably have your nations scientists flying over immediately to find out what the fuck happened, and your nick jr shows would still be cancelld.What he meant was that if Scotland vanished the United States would live on...albeit a curiosity of a country that vanished.
What he meant is that he thinks absolutely nothing of Scotland thanks to his own petty disagreement with a Scot on a forum. Doesnt really show tolerance, one of your key virtues.
Go punch a wall to vent your anger, and leave sensible arguments to the big people now, k?From the way your talking, Its kinda obivious who needs to hit a wall.
The way Im talking has been with cool headed logical statements, with the occasional jibe at someone whos generalising both his own country and mine to an insulting degree, and generally being intolerant. This is another jibe at his lack of ability to keep a cool head.
I have to wonder why you are taking his side so quickly and vehmently. If you read through both his and my posts, you'll see that towards the end he starts to rant and admit that he doesnt care how arrogant he gets. Im not sure why that deserves such support and I deserved such attempts to undermine my arguments.
Care to offer an insight?
That massive block of text gave me a headache. Formatting needs a little work.

international shipping straights always fail because of piracy and no military to enforce the laws and canada has the icebreakers needed to enforce the laws in the straights
What? When have you ever heard of pirates that far north! =P
Seriously though, I think the waters should be considered Canadian territory. Having control over a group of islands that close to your mainland should allow you to include them and the intervening water as one entity with the mainland. At those kind of short(ish) distances, it shouldnt really be a major issue.
It gets daft when the UK wants all the water between them and the Falklands

Why shot himself in the foot though. Seems a random statement to make
Still funny though

This kids eight. Who buys his food? The parents! They also have the power to either take his console / tv away from him or say "C'mon, youve played enough videogames, go outside."
I cant comment for definate on the genes scenario, but there was recently a program on about it on TV here, andalthough I didnt watch it, all the trailers showed him eating junk food from the fridge, while his parents were standing there.
Seems to be the food / lack of excercise combo thats doin it.

I have yet to flip out. Im being quite calm and reasonable.
America is not a barbarian state. America is a very diverse country.
I never implied it wasnt. In fact you'll find that I pulled the other guy up for trying to generalise America under one banned headed "American culture" when culture vaires coast to coast.
And for you to even DARE to make remarks about the south.....god....who is the arrogant one now?
please, let me quote myself here:
"...that would be a sweeping generalisation (with an S asshole) and they are very silly, arent they now?"
Im merely pointing out that since he has the arrogance to call all Scots sheep fuckers, then I too could resort to using stereotypes, (Name one cartoon that doesnt portray the American southers states as inbred rednecks) but Im above it. Generalisations are stupid and I pointed that out by not using one.
I love the world. I do not believe america is the best or the worst. But to see everyday someone who hasnt been to america treating her like a whore sickens me.
I have been to America so nyah nyah! Please explain to me how I'm treating America like a whore. I do not pick up America in my car from some street corner. I do not pay America for sexual gratification. Where is the whoreness please?
You should have a sense of tolerance before you come on the forums ok?
You should have a sense of what youre talking about before you come to the forums. Make sure you know what you're on about and that you're attacking the right guy.

Who's hands do you normally leave it in?
Nothing but water...nothing for 40 days n nights. Maybe some of the obese or even overweight people could follow this example?
Thats probably not the best of ideas. Once you stop eating, your body tries to stockpile its fat reserves, so weight loss would slow down and maybe stop. Plus its just not that great an idea in principal.

Fair enough man. Seeing as you already have Swift, any ideas where I can find a good tut. The ultimate tut on NG kinda skims it and the built in tuts are too tedious.
I just got swift 3d, and went to install. Since its configured for flash mx, it never fount the proper directory for the importer.dll file.
Can anyone out there tell me which subfolder in the flash 8 directory it should be copied to?
