  1. Fair enough. I think I am seeing it slightly differently though. Lets agree to disagree:001_smile:
  2. Chris, thanks very much for the support. John, I was only asking a question so I could better help Tony. I have spoken to MonkeyD about my reason for asking, so see no need to justify myself any further.
  3. Thats just me, if i'm giving advice it will be the best advice I can give. Dont do anything half heartedly mate, i'm sure you understand that. I am nothing but honest, I felt I was treated unfairly so said so. I have given many hours of advice to you and others and I never ask for anything in return. The one time I had a question I felt like a door was slammed in my face. Thats the long and the short of it.
  4. Excellent. Watching you work is a pleasure. Very skilled cutting IMO. Nothing fancy, just accurate cuts and effective rigging. Well done that man.
  5. Just as well as i'd be needing a rest every 10 mins anyway.
  6. I see. So when i'm giving free information all is well, but when I ask for a bit of information about your site for my interest suddenly it is a derail? Even if my interest may lead to me finding a solution to what I believe are the faults with Tony's site. This seems a tad ungracious of you, and not really in the spirit of Arbtalk if you dont mind me saying.
  7. I'm not intending to give criticism. Just useful information. I know you aren't trying to use the site commercially, but surely with the time and effort you are putting in, it would be nice to think that the maximum number of interested parties could benefit from it. Purely for my professional knowledge now, do you have back end access to that site so you could allow a designer to alter the CSS or HTML if you so wished?
  8. Monkeyd I can see the attraction of such a site, but for the cost of it he could be using a much better application. Its as simple of that really. I did advise him what I thought he should use and he obviously went for your recommendation instead. The slideshow feature you are using on yours is very effective but it is to the detriment of the picture quality. I have just looked at identical pictures both on here and on your site and on here the quality looks better. Although to be fair I do use an exceptionally high quality monitor on this computer as I use this one for checking sites are Pixel perfect. I suppose as I do critique sites by the pixel, I may be slightly too unbiased to give a 'laymans' type opinion. Look at the pics on both sites and see what you think. The information I was giving to Tony regarding SEO is equally valid on your site too. It really is a fundamental flaw, IMO. Giving you space to stick a few key words in, really doesn't cut it in todays SEO battle for traffic. I hope you find my comments useful, it is how they are intended.
  9. Thats more like it. Get a bit of power behind it. Anyone fancy a cs1000 Fireblade or CS1000 R1.
  10. Cant remember where it was, but somewhere in Hampshire or Wiltshire they actually dug an underpass under the road, so the little critters could cross safely. They then used that fencing to funnel all the little beasties to the right place. By all accounts it wasn't as user friendly as first though as the local foxes thought that a restaurant had been opened for them and just sat and waited for the next delivery to be funnelled their way.
  11. I have seen that used to direct hedgehogs to special safe places to cross.
  12. Think this would suggest that my second theory was prob more accurate than mate. If the core has a low melting point, this could explain core damage without sheath damage. I am however merely speculating, I dont actually know, but i'm sure you have already guessed that:thumbup1:
  13. Agree. If I tried to use an 88 all day for such work, my weedy arms would surely drop off.
  14. I would assume when the outside material is a lot better at dissipating heat than the inner. Or maybe when the inner is a lot more susceptable to heat damage than the outer.
