:Hehe! It's a secret! Actually, it's a little thing called domain parking! You register your domain (you gotta pay for that part) and "park it" -- you don't buy hosting.  Many sites will offer free website redirection and will mask the real address (this is what I do). Two good places are [http://www.godaddy.com godaddy.com] which is dirt cheap, and [http://www.namesdirect.com/ names direct] which offers a couple (not really that many) of other features but at a greater expense per year. I hope this helps!  Let me know if you have more questions. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 14:02, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Useful Documentation Links I've found

TODO List

  • All work stuff moved here. The talk is now just for Talking. Sort of.


Contributions

  • Cool! Wow! My first serious contribution! check out: The Geddup Noise. It's not yet complete, and it definitely it a lot of work! But all These guys you see in the history have worked hard at getting this list right! Amazing how much goes into one little article! I'm tired. I need to go back to the world of responsability again :(. Take care ppl! --Stux 04:32, 27 Sep 2005 (UTC)
    • Great job with that article! ^-^ You and Joshua did great with it (although I helped. A little). Good luck with future articles too. I might suggest making note of it on your actual user page too, along with the talk page. (I like it on the talk page, though. It lets people--like me--give random and well-deserved congratulations.) In closing, keep up the nice work. --DorianGray
      • Thank you for the kind comment DorianGray! You have a wonderful night! :) --Stux 04:50, 27 Sep 2005 (UTC)



Geocities

If your website is hosted by geocities free then how you get a domain??? – Pertmywert (Talk·Edits) 08:06, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Hehe! It's a secret! Actually, it's a little thing called domain parking! You register your domain (you gotta pay for that part) and "park it" -- you don't buy hosting. Many sites will offer free website redirection and will mask the real address (this is what I do). Two good places are godaddy.com which is dirt cheap, and names direct which offers a couple (not really that many) of other features but at a greater expense per year. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have more questions. --Stux 14:02, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)
How much do you pay??? – Pertmywert (Talk·Edits) 05:58, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Jackie C.

Just so you know, Jackie C. is Jackie Chapman, Matt's wife.--minibaseball.png Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 15:42, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

OOOOOHH! Why thank you very much! Very, very much! --Stux 15:45, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)
Your very welcome!--minibaseball.png Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 15:46, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Subpages

Hey Stux. I notice you have some stuff on this page that isn't really talk. My guess is that you don't want it on your main user page. May I suggest a subpage? Perhaps "User:Stux/to-do". You're allowed to have subpages for projects you're working on and other things that further the goals of the wiki. — It's dot com 19:36, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Cool! Thanks for the tip! --Stux 19:38, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

I adjusted the formatting on the email table to the wiki format, which hopefully will make it easier for you to use. — It's dot com 20:18, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Gray backgrounds

Oh! You were so close! When you first started uploading those, I looked to check them out, and realized that they were going to be very good. I was gonna leave you a note on your talk page, but when I noticed how fast you were uploading, I decided not to mess up the beauty of your string of edits. I can't believe you got all the way to 3 before it was interrupted... Man! And, before I forget to say it in all my ramblings, good jorb! — It's dot com 03:48, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

LOL! Why thank you very much Hamstring, er Homegrown, er It's dot com! I didn't even see the string of edits uuntil I refreshed my Recent Changes tab... Wow! I got lucky that there was a lull too! Hehe I'm glad you liked the edits! --Stux 03:53, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)
BTW I learned from the best! I noticed you and BazookaJoe going at it with those page deletions earlier today! --Stux 03:58, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the congradulations. :)– Pertmywert (Talk·Edits) 21:08, 4 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Finally I found it!

I really didn't look for it, but the other day I really wanted to post this picture in my user space. I finally found it and I'm posting it. It pretty much describes how I've been feeling all week. Meh! --Stux 01:05, 8 Oct 2005 (UTC)

P.S. Kudos for whoever made the template {{clear}} found here Template:clear. Even THAT i had to dig for again cuz it didn't occur to me to bookmark it or copy it to my page. Oh well. Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Much better!

I feel better and more relaxed now!

In the news...

I think I will no longer be reading my current news from regular, hyped up news franchises, but instead from a truly unbiased (relatively speaking) source like the Wikipedia. Case in point:

  • The 2005_Indian_subcontinent_earthquake is a very recent, tragic event. This article on the wiki has been published the same day of the event. It cites the BBC article among others, and you can tell the night and day difference in tone, sensationalism and objectivity. Wow.
  • How I long for jounalists to attain the same level of true objectivity as encyclopedia writers are required (this wiki is a great example, beleive it or not). My apologies to those who are in the journaling business and also contribute/read the wiki. I am not trying to offend anyone but rather to make an observation.
  • In the meantime I will keep the people in Pakistan, Afghanistan and India in prayer.

Wha?

What are you talking about with "Thanks for catching my little swappage in the Stinkoman page"? Seek Bar

Stress

Stux, what are those recent templates for? We have those images uploaded. Rogue Leader / (my talk) 00:57, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

The templates are meant for "easy coding" for the stress level images (they link to them directly), that way people just need to change the level simply by changing the stress level number. I wanted to try it out and see if people would like to use that for their pages. If they are too much trouble I can remove them. --Stux 01:01, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
No trouble at all. Just curious. Rogue Leader / (my talk) 01:07, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
