Oh my.. that was hilarious.

A tiny part of me hopes you're being ironic, but I'm afraid that there's probably not much chance

Good Advertising for AH.
Make fonts smaller, resize pictures (thumbnail pointing to the large Pic maybe ?)

Cheers,

repedatly attacking a persons persona over and over on a bb and forcing EVERYONE to read it is less cool, I decided I wont respond to him anymore on here so that yall wont have to read all that crap, so i will just vent on my web page.

Saint, did they look too big?  maby its because the res i use on my monitor, ill cut it down a few points.

No Wob, I personaly am at 1600/1200 , so that's not a prob (am on DSL too, so no connix probs here.) I'm just giving you a "rule of thumb tip" (Always use a deault of 800/600 when you design pages and a slow connectio as well(56k/s)):

Set small images, see if you can get the colourcount down (IE: Gifs)

Set font Smaller (BIG fonts = well, we've all done it on our first sites   )

Use Tables or Layers to place your Images, etc...

Cheers,

lol

I can't seem to find your 'vented' comments on your website. However, let me say that I was not attacking a persona, more drawing people's attention to a frankly disgusting comment which Wobble should be ashamed of.

Racism has always made me feel very uneasy.

And if you're wondering why I felt so angry about your post Wobble, then let me say that I have several Japanese friends who were on an exchange to my university. Perhaps if you actually met people from other countries and experienced the similarities, you'd wouldn't be so derisive or bigoted towards them.

Calling someone a 'gook' is as indefensible as calling someone a 'cupcake'.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels the same way, and I apologise to the 99% of people who post on this BB for seeing my vitriolic comments.

To you Wobble, I will not apologise.

Dowding,

I seriously doubt you will be criticized for the above reply or anything in regards to this subject.  Your beliefs echo most of those who frequent this bbs <at least in this area >.

You may want to visit TheWobble's web site a few more times.  Especially that aircraft page.  You know.. the one with over 1 meg of images on it.  Geocities has gotta be loving that one

I couldn't find that vent page either... too bad, it would have been amusing.

Wobble - ya might wana think about crediting the people who provided the screen shots, rather than just pulling them off the BBS and adding yer own out of context remarks over them.

Also - I'm a little bit troubled by how similar this page looks to the official HTC pages. I think it's ok to pull images off another site as long as you have permission and give credit... but NOT to use these in the exact same size and placement as on the original site.

Use your imagination - come up with your own website. This looks too much like a hasty knock-off.

Don't get me wrong - it's nice to see ya building a site around AH, but this, in a design sense,  is unoriginal and almost a complete rip-off.

Dowding - yer not alone.

yeah if you are going to vent on people like dowding then why dont you add a "wobble's roadkill, lies and racist comments" page and you can tell the rest of the world some of the whoppers you tell here - then maybe they would understand why people dont like you -

ps - listen to you parents wobble you really should get off the couch and go apply at the jack in the box - remember any job is better than no job

Nash, I did all of the aircraft and vehicls shots myself, I took down the rant because I simmered down, i dont hold a grudge, I get pissed I react and the I back to "normal"

that page with "1mb" of images...thats just all the AC each pic is only about 45-60k, not that bad, I just forgot to make the default res 800x600 oh well.

I dont care about Dowding opinion or anyone elses for that matter unless its related to AH, I dont climb up anyones bellybutton and call them a racist bigot no matter what they say, I am only rude when people are rude or insulting to me, You get back what You give, that may be an odd concept but that how I operate.

And now my page has nothing on it that isnt AH related that I didnt make so that everyone will be happy, all the screenshots are mine. and it doesent look anything like the HTC's page (didnt before either)

I should have known that if i tried to make a page that it would get nitpicked to death, its nice to know that probably 90% of the 180 hits I have had the past 2 days were just people trying to find something to rub in my face or yell at me about, thanks folks.
