text with no other window elements would be very nice if that were possible - but I would still have the problem of what colour to make the text -
Here's the Rainlender notes "window" with some sample text - it seems to have a background with a tone as opposed to a colour (?) i.e. it darkens the background colour which help the text show clearly.

To me the most important thing is that those who died on 9/11 are honored and remembered in positive ways.-JavaJones (September 14, 2011, 02:44 PM)
my understanding might be wrong-wraith808 (September 14, 2011, 09:34 AM)
Mine might be as well. I'm sorry for any confusion I've added. Please don't take offense at anything I've said, I often see connections that to other people aren't really there.-daddydave (September 14, 2011, 12:16 PM)
I'll take one last stab at this. I'm simply agreeing with app that citing a line from a poem which is loosely associated with a religion is a very poor basis for disallowing the building of a structure by members of that religion. Beyond that, I don't care, or it's a choice of either declaring it a self evident truth or writing a 10 page essay, and I don't have time for it, nor am I as eloquent as app.-daddydave (September 14, 2011, 04:56 AM)
^ You might want to put a little blurb above whatever you have in the center of your two textblocks with the name of the site; Whatever you have between doesn't show up for me, so your post seems a bit lacking in details.-wraith808 (September 13, 2011, 02:43 PM)

Which brings me back to an idea i had a couple of years ago, which would be to make simple but distinct paths for users..
- So imagine a software page where it had a fixed price on it: $29.95 which you click to buy like normal software purchase.
- But also a button saying: Show me alternatives to paying this.
- If they click on that button they have choices like: I want to choose how much to donate; I cannot afford to pay anything now; I am not willing to pay anything but I would still like to use the software; etc.

+1 for the Xbox 360 and Kinect.
It's a BLAST... Games are pricey, though.-Darwin (September 13, 2011, 07:58 AM)
I can't offer an actual comparison, because my experience with Wii is very limited. But I can tell you that my 360 with Kinect leaves me sweating, so it would seem that I'm getting some aerobic exercise.
Before getting a Kinect, ensure that you've got sufficient space to use it. They want you to be (iirc) 6-10 feet back from the sensor, and have about the same amount of width to work in. My family room itself is OK for this, but the geography of furniture, and where I need to put the furniture due to doors, windows, and fireplace, really compromises the available Kinect space.-CWuestefeld (September 12, 2011, 12:08 PM)
Well, there is a case where the refund would not be possible.. If the donation was specifically sent by the donator to an author, and the author cashed out the donation after 30 days, and the author didn't have enough donations in their credits to handle a refund, we wouldn't be able to refund it. This has never happened but it is possible. I suppose I should add some asterisk to the refund statement about this.-mouser (September 11, 2011, 07:15 AM)
"The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers." Turkish Prime Minister Erdoğan, quoting from an Islamic poem.
And I seem to recall this from a very popular Christian hymn:Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war,
with the cross of Jesus going on before.
Christ, the royal Master, leads against the foe;
forward into battle see his banners go!-app103 (September 10, 2011, 09:18 AM)
And, I wonder if his experiences with this were better than yours with the HP hardware.I got an exopc. The touch screen is sort of ok. I wonder if it could be used as a remote controller for another pc...-urlwolf (September 08, 2011, 02:24 PM)

Now, up comes a message saying 'do you want to sync with this library? Big time NO. But it still wiped the Touch anyway. Didn't put anything on, just wiped it.-Fred Nerd (September 06, 2011, 08:56 AM)
I found 2 different ways to get his works database into something that would be more usable.-wraith808 (September 03, 2011, 11:02 AM)
