"Blame Canada" is cool, but I want to insult Canada in my own way

Any place with censors is ultra-cool

Also, what would we be blaming them for? Film-Tech?

Seriously though, we could use some good slogans.

So Am I the only one here that sees NOTHING but the main login (news) page when I click on Film-Tech? I'm using netscape 4.8 so I can't blame Micro$haft for this one...

Hmm...I suppose that either Brad or I could hack the banner-rotation script to send the "Blame Canada" (or whatever) banner only to users whose domain names end in .ca. And send the Technicolor banner only to Technicolor people. And so on, and so forth...

Aaron,

Try another browser or another computer and let me know what you see. It is possible that little script I implemented has a glitch on certain browser versions.

Scott,

I agree we need to direct certain welcome pages to certain viewers. I think Mr.Guttag would appreciate a nice big picture of a platter! (It's all in good fun to those who haven't been around. I wouldn't call it "pissing off", but more like "good fun". )

There is no such browser as Netscape 4.8. Netscape's latest is 4.77. Aaron is trying to trick us all! But it works on my Netscape on both Mac and PC. Do you see the "space" where it should be, at the top center of the page? Like an empty frame or an image symbol with a question mark in it? Do you have images turned on (I know, I know, I had to ask). How do you connect to the internet, or more importantly, what speed? I have noticed in the past that sometimes if I connect at low speeds Netscape will ignore images sometimes. Just a thought.

Bob, have you seen the banner created especially for you? If not, get back to the main screen and keep pressing "Reload" or "refresh" until it pops up.

I stand corrected. it IS 4.77

I believe images are on

I connect with a DSL line

the space is just that. a blank space.

Well if you can see member pictures on the forums then images are on. Can you? Click the blank space on the main page and see what happens (if images are off then this should make it load, but who knows?). Maybe you don't have a helper app set up in the Netscape preferences for JPEGs? Or JPEGs compressed a certain way? To test this go to the picture warehouse page and click on

"Colorado Cinemas Chinese at Arapahoe Crossings 16". Can you see the pictures?

Next click on "Mann Chinese 16". Both of these pages use slightly different file types of JPEG. If one works and not the other, then that is the problem.

On the subject of browsers, AVOID the OMNIWEB browser at all costs. It sucks much ass.

Joe, I just did as you suggested and found the Joke Logo..that is great thank you. I do enjoy a good joke and I hope all registered members will contribute and keep it going.

I have been in and out of the hospital but techer Betsey Breading had sent me an e-mail about it. I didn't know how to find it.

The whole forum is a wonderful experience and I learn somthing new everyday. My sincere thanks to Brad and you Joe and of course Dwayne for making Film-Tech a reality.

Oh, and BTW maybe all readers can help me decide which half of me is Canadian.

Is it:
The top half? The Bottom half?
The right half? The left half?
The front half? The back half?
Is it mixed?
Right leg Canadian? Right foot American?

As you can see, I need some help.

How many of the logos are there? I figure there are about a half-dozen of them, right? I ask because there may be one "lurking" that I haven't seen yet due to the laws of random chance.

Jerry, more like a pin cushion. I'll take the sponge anytime.

Have a "Butter Tart" eh! Wish I could buy them here.

The Doc's have taken my beloved martini's away and left me with

So I will be buying a lot of different brands to see what agrees.

Joe,

How about something to the effect of:

"Yes, we CAN rewind the movie!"
