who prefers the ps3 over the xbox360?

Nobody because the PS3 is for rich wigger brats who beg their parents for it. It sucks, no good games, all games are expensive, and the console is expensive.

I got it for only $200. But I got it from some people in my neighborhood that were using stolen credit-cards to buy the items and sell them at half profit. result=me + ps3=happy.I only got it because one of my favorite game series puts its next game on there:Devil May Cry 4. I probably would've preferred a 360 though

You will eat them words when GTA4 comes out. Its the sole reason im getting a PS3. And im no rich spoilt brat believe that. And these days I wish I was......!

The only reason I was going to get a PSP was for Liberty city stories. So I was glad when they done a PS2 version. Same with Vice city stories. I know GTA4 is coming out for the 360 also but the PS£ version will be better :P

Why oh why can't browsers function the same for once :( I'm still having no luck with the background problem. Works fine in IE 6 but FF 2 has a problem with it: http://www.fauxdreams.net/test/index2.ph p.

I would rather not having to add a height to the div because I want the background and div to expand with the size of the content so that I don't end up with a scrollbar. This is one reason why I don't use background images :( Any ideas?

Jessii, it actually looks fine in Firefox :3.

I'll give it a shot! Thanks James!

I was experimenting and trying to do it without divs. It worked for FF but screwed IE 6 over. I'm just wondering if I should keep IE 6 or if the majority of internet users are now upgraded to IE 7. Until then, I'll play around with it to get it to work in both IE 6 & FF.

I like the design Jessii :) My favourite of yours ;D

Thanks! I like it too. It's plain, simple and clean :D I just need to get my photos and everything reuploaded. I still need some ideas as to what to do with the photo gallery. I was thinking about doing something with lightwindow rather than having pop up windows, but I'm not really sure yet.

Jessii, Even though it's still the same as your old design ( j/k :P ) I really like the header and navigation area. Very slick.

I agree with everyone else in this thread. Good job, Jessii. Simple and easy to use, and aesthetically pleasing.

Nope. Didn't work, I'm doing some other stuff around the house and will play around with it later on. Thanks!

I like it, but it seems that the content is overpowered by that advertising banner, which seems to dominate the layout (especially as it's the only element to use such a colour scheme). The lack of colour contrast works well in the rest of the site, as you used other things like fonts to distinguish visual importance.

I like the title font, but I can't put my finger on what it is...

I'm changing the ad, it's just there as a place holder for alignment purposes and it's linked off of my current layout. I'm just trying to figure out what to do with that spot because I'mthinking about putting the ads in a different place. The font is Kabel Bk BT and I use it a lot.

Hey guys a few things....1)im joining this group :) 2) im vrey interested in programming 3) i just started programming, like very basic stuff, simply HTML and Dreamweaver and Fireworks, but this is VERY interesting....can any advanced programmer tell me a desired course of classes or something if i wanted to (and i do) pursure programming as a career? thx in advance

Well, you need to then learn CSS (dreamweaver is limited in this department), then PHP, javascript, etc. Are you actually in school right now? If you are, what's your major? There may be a tech school in your area that teaches stuff like that if you can't learn on your own.

Nah man, im in high school (which i know is not useful at all so do not berate me for thinking i know something,because i dont think i am knowledgeable in the least about this area), inhigh school i just took a "Programming in Basic" course and a "Web Design" course (web design = HTML + intro to javascript + dreamweaver + fireworks all rolled into one)

So i was wondering where i should go from here (I live in Michigan if this helps) like can anyone recommend a good programming college in this area or can anyone tell me what classes are "next" on the list or are important to know and learn (as you all can tell i am not knowledgeable at all, so thats why im asking you guys) , but thanks in advance for the input

Don't wait for a class to teach you something. Learn it yourself. The internet and libraries are great. When it comes to taking classes, just pick things related to computers and math. Should you get into computer programming in University(the program is called Computer Science), most universities require that you take a lot of maths and sciences. Namly Physics and calculus. To be sure, just look up the universities in the area and check thier websites for the exact courses you need.

Jessii is a woman.

Just thought i'd point that out :)

Thank you. But what in specific should i learn online next...javascript? C++? i do not kno what is next to learn online...trust me i plan on learning online for sure, but i dont know what to look for and since i was on newgrounds anyways, i just figured i would ask the experts

OK, Well there are two kind of "paths" for you to follow in programming. You can code online things (like Newgrounds) or you can code off line programs (like Microsoft Word). Of course the two paths sometimes mix, but generally they are quite different. If you want to get into the online programming path, I would look into HTML, Javascript, and PHP (in that order). Should you go into the off line (desktop) programming, I would recommend learning Visual Basic, Java, and C/C++. If you want to you could even replace VB with PHP and get the best of both worlds. PHP is quite easy to use, also.

If that's what you want to do, then that's fine but you should research colleges or tech schools in your area because I don't live anywhere near Michigan to even help you out. Google is great for finding stuff like that, just search something like web design in Michigan. Google's also good for finding tutorials and stuff on what you want to learn.

Thank you, you have been very helpful,from the sounds of I,I would like to go into the online programming world, so i will try PHP next i guess. Thank you for ur help "Cinjection"

I didn't realise you can't use

Code

Tags in general, only flash and programming :(

Thanks "Jessii" for hearing me out and helping me, i'll try google in a minute :)

No problem. There are a lot of experts on php and web development on this forum. A lot more than there are for off line programming. Just make sure that you know some HTML before you start with php.

Yeah dont worry, i know HTML like the back of my hand (its the only thing im actually great at when it comes to the programming world) but i still feel like im fairly basic, are their "advanced HTML"???? classes? (i dont ever know if their is such a thing)

There is XHTML, XML, and CSS. All of which relate to HTML and online programming. Be advised that HTML is not programming though. It is a markup language, not a programming language. PHP, as you will soon see, is more complicated than HTML. It has more structure. It's still manageable to learn. Good luck.

Guess who just finished his site :D
