@jimgov: Crap! I had three drinks down before I realized it wasn't blank. Thanks, philcore.

You're welcome!

@bosox: Phil, that's an epic fail, blankmind doesn't use capitalization.


Sorry bout that, I blame my phone. It forces me to capitalize after each period ... Clearly the result of elitist banker phone designers!

Not falling for that again. Nice try, philcore.

Holy god Fasces... well done.

No problem, Phil.

Faces definitely wins the "I have no life" award.

Apparently Frank has a website, now he tells us. I still feel I don't know enough about WankMag to decide if he is a force for good or evil. If Jesus were alive today would they be friends?

Don't need an excuse to drink, but I'll take it anyway.

Brilliant thread.

"Faces definitely wins the "I have no life" award."
This is what happens when your on a lot of adderall. Rather then studying for 5 hours straight, you do stuff you don't want to do for 5 hours straight and don't seem all that phased.

In this case I read every single one of blankflags posts since last Sunday, something I wouldn't advise doing.

@Fasces - I take it back. You do not win the "I have no life award." You win the "holy shit, why did I do that" award.

good call. my posts are pretty amazing. i should be in favor of some prescriptions if they are getting people to listen to me.

@blank: Now you've pissed Timur off. Difficult to do: difficult to mend.

i dont know what youre talking about

ps Mine's a tequila, jimgov.

@BF: Obviously. (Whoever you happen to be responding to doesn't matter.)

Where's your website, blankflag, or is that just another weak joke?

did you check my profile here? or any of the other thousands of messages i posted with the address? i am starting to feel like a spammer, it is pesl.byethost7.com/text

or are you saying that the site is down again? its a piece of crap. it always goes down. its kind of depressing, actually. maybe once i have it setup with lots of stuff i MAY see if i can actually pay for some really cheap server... but im going with the free one for now.

Tried several times. Doesn't work. The '/text' looks iffy.

that is depressing.
well /text should work.
it should go to /text/index.php.

maybe it is the super-low cpu usage that i am having that is causing problems.
i just added something where i can upload images to the site by an admin page.
but when you upload the image, it takes a bit of cpu time, apparently, to do it.
and now you are experiencing a problem.
the same way when i tried to download and parse xml files on the server it resulted in problems.

i dont know what to do. i guess i have to do everything on my home computer and then upload stuff myself. it is kind of lame. because we are talking about really low cpu usage here, but apparently too much for me free service.

it is funny i can probably upload hundreds of images by ftp with no problems, but doing one image over http using php causes problems.

May I ask why the black and yellow? It hurts my eyes...

you can change the color scheme. i added webdip colors as an option. i dont know. i guess since the web has been hijacked by the dark-on-light crowd i guess i can change the default to the webdip colors.

the colors are because i am cool. like that movie 2001 or tron.

ok out of pure generosity to you uninitiated i changed the default to webdip-like colors. you can verify it if you want. it should work... but i dont know about caching of the javascript file. particularly in internet explorer. these changes sometimes dont show up correctly due to that...

in response to a comment on my site, i have a question - poll - punctuation - good, or bad?

I use to like dark-on-light, but then I grew up (I've hated it the pas 2 years).

The site looks a lot better with the webdip colours then the black and yellow.

i vote bad
punctuation has always been used as a tool for oppression

the halloween colors are not even really yellow and black they are more orange and black. only the links are yellow to distinguish them.

or at least they were supposed to be orange. but my screen colors may be a bit messed up so i may have to edit the css if it is coming off as yellow because i dont really like yellow.

@blank: "punctuation has always been used as a tool for oppression "
please explain we the uninitiated dont understand we need guidance from the gurus of punctuation as to why it serves the purposes of oppression we dont see it so but possibly were stupid stupid people are legion legions died out with the roman empire empires died out with the sinking of the belgrano and maggie t

ok i changed the dark colors. i found an orange that i think looks ok at least on my screen. unfortunately i could not find a matching link color that looked good by itself and alongside the orange text... so the link color could be better, but at least the text is more what i look for.

actually i havent really looked at the code for that text input, i thought it did work with some punctutation, i guess i was wrong.

well to be coherent you only need sentence breaks and that can be accomplished with newlines

like so

conclusion is that no punctuation marks are needed

but i will look into it because i thought you could do periods etc but i guess not
