SPCR

..since the other one ain't working anymore and I don't think it's coming back up soon (unless you're willing to 'donate' something to the guy that runs it). Read all about it on ww.statgfx.com.

I found a new sig on the Liquidninjas site that is still free. Read all about it here. By default is has the liquidninjas team skin, but it supports custom skins and background etc. They still have to finish the interface with which you can config your own skin though. But they say they are happy to make one for other teams if you ask them. The only condition (nothing is for free) is that the liquidninjas url is visible somewhere in the sig. Sounds fair to me. So if you all like this sig we can make a spcr skin.

Yup, works great!

For those that don't wanna read the whole manual, this is what you have to put in your sig:
And just replace playername with your name.

I don't know btw if there are more choices of skins already available. I looked around on the forums there and found one guy using a skin different from default:



Looks prettier, but too little info I think.
Anyway, the skin name is f_marb. Just add "&xskin=f_marb" to the url, behind the playername, but before the img tag.

i like mine better

Riff is using a DELL! EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

tell me about it

but sadly, i'm lost at sea in st kitts. meaning i'll have to import everything. um.. i can't find that many online shops that'll ship to the middle of the caribbean, and those that would, i end up paying a lot on shipping (think $30 - $50 and more per part). dell was the only company that does, apart from voodoopc and maybe alienware. i hated the idea of buying a mass produced machine. ewwugh. after i got here, i bought a 120GB hard disk from ebay back in august. the hdd was a good deal at $140. but i spent $60 on shipping through USPS. same thing for my tv tuner i got for $80 on ebay, but spent $50 on shipping.

so... it sucks. but hey, it's quiet

The Carribean? That's a great place to end up! How are your silent PC temps down there with all the ambient heat?

i've got a silent air-con unit , my temps hardly rise over 45C with ambient temps being around 25-26 C. pretty impressive i think, with a passive heatsink and only one low rpm 120mm fan.

Radeonman, infact, before i started folding, it was almost impossible for me to have a uptime of more than a couple days. i guess the folding made her a bit more tamed

the best way to make a brand-name computer work reliable is, completely reformat the hard drive, throw away all the discs except for the OS, and download drivers elsewhere. like, on my system, only my soundcard drivers and keyboard software is from dell, everything else is from the web. and um, i love my computer dearly, and she hasn't crashed on me yet this year. though last year, i had a few icky spots, but once the dell software was out, she's become so graceful

oh and, antivirus software are highly overrated. i haven't used any since last september.
