By the way, I would just like to emphasise that I only don't believe in a God because I have no reason to believe. I have experienced nothing in my life to push me in that direction, and I feel no need to attribute my existance to a higher power. I like to keep an open mind in so far as that if God were to suddenly appear in front of me I would admit I had been wrong and become a believer. I just don't see the point of blindly following a faith 'just in case', which I think happens so much these

We're certainly seeing a broad range of beliefs here, and as usual this subject stirs up some strong feelings. I think it's pretty obvious from my initial post that I don't believe in God. I actually place about as much faith in there being a God as I do in there being a Santa Claus. I believe both concepts pertain to a similar thing. I won't argue that the idea of God and creation gives those people who believe in it a sense of importance and comfort, and it's therefore not a

I thought I'd pre-empt this discussion before Kona's comment in the other thread sparked it off there. There is concrete proof that we evolved, but no proof that we were created. What's you're opinion, and why? To quote Phoebe from Friends: "I guess the real question is who put those fossils there and why?"

#13 by Citizen Satans Child - 9/10/2003 2:47:42 PM still the same story If you consider the 'story' to be of a stranger visiting our world and trying to convince a group of people of his origins, then yes I suppose it is. Aside from that, it's completely different though. John Titor claimed to be here to retreive computer equipment an

K-Pax wasn't about a time traveller. It was about an alien from an advanced civilization visiting Earth. It was also based on a trilogy of novels of the same name.

I'm not a moderator, but I can give you an idea why it probably wasn't accepted. The main problem is composition. There seems to have been little thought given to the use of space or the relation of the various objects to each other. There's no balance to the image, and it doesn't lend itself well to use as a desktop wallpaper. While it shows a hint of talent, and it's undoubtedly quite a nice picture, it's certainly not something many people would use as a wallpaper. The first

I failed to notice that I went past the 400,000 downloads mark a couple of days ago. I can't believe so many people have downloaded my skins, and I'd like to thank each and every one of you. Hopefully I'll be coming up with something new soonish, as I've finally managed to get my machine back to a semi-reliable state after a prolonged battle.

Well I already have a recent motherboard with on-board sound, but it produces inferior quality sound and doesn't have an SPDIF output for connecting to my speakers like the SoundBlasters do. I tried switching to the on-board sound for a while to see if I could bear the downgrade, but I just missed all the features I lost in the transistion.

I recently bought a new case for my machine which had front access sockets for headphones and line-in audio. Unfortunately the connector on the inside isn't compatible with my Live! soundcard, being a standard six-pin header designed to be attached to on-board soundcards on modern motherboards. So I started looking at possible solutions to get a useable headphone socket on my system. I decided it's probably time to upgrade to an Audigy 2 card anyway, but that has pretty much the same in

I agreed on the condition that my skins were included in their original unmodified form and that I was clearly credited as the author. I also requested that they send me a copy of the magazine so that I could see how my work was being represented.

Because PNG still isn't a standard web graphic format, despite it being supported to varying degrees by the mainstream web browsers. Does that answer your question? Duh.

Can anyone say Greenwich Mean Time? The date/time debate will rage on forever more, but in the end the world measures their time based on differences from GMT, which is measured in the British time/date format. So if everyone just adopted the 'correct' notation for dates and times, it would make things so much easier. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/bigsmile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="a

All we need now is some American to come in here sitcom-style and start talking in a mock cockney accent in the misguided belief that they're accurately representing a British person, and thereby making the use of an actual British actor entirely unneccesary. Oh, and not to forget that all British people are actually evil, if you believe just about any American action movie.

I say chaps, there's no need to start throwing around national stereotypes just for the sake of it. Honestly, you fellows just give the British a bad name. God save the Queen! Cheerio.

I preferred it the old way. Not only does the removal of the right-hand column make the design less balanced (making your eye wander from the page as it reaches the right edge), it makes navigating to other parts of the site more difficult. It therefore destroys the two main aims of good web site design, making it a distinct step backwards. When I first came back to the message board after the change had been made I thought something was wrong with the server, as this is exactly how the
