ParticipantDonnie, - check this out:
Are you telling me you got your auction up for free? It's pretty cool by the way. Can you upload pics once you register?
DonaldBaker
ParticipantWhy are you going to buy auction software?? I thought you said you were going to use phpauction.? That's free.
No it's not. You have to pay a one time fee for it, then you are free to resell it or distribute it as you see fit, or alter the software as you wish. It costs $24.00 for the GPL license and no installation. It costs $104.00 for the GPL license and installation. It costs over $200.00 for GPL, installation, and customized templates. It's still far cheaper than the other major auction software running around. Here's the link: http://www.phpauction.net/user.registration.php?account=4&package=10

ParticipantI can't get some modules to work on my postnuke site so I tried to get open source software to use and just link it to the site. I tried to install Coppermine and Gallery. Both require GD library to manipulate the images, and I couldn't get that to install either. I am thinking 1and1.com doesn't support it, but they say they do. I want the gallery so that when I start my auction, users can start virtual galleries of their products or have multiple pics of their listings etc…I obviously don't know how to do this and I need some help. Of course maybe the auctio program I buy will have such a function but I still need the GD library for any image manipulation for thumbnails etc…

ParticipantWell there is a religion forum I know about that needs lots of posters if you're interested, but it's primarily a Christian forum…..yet not exclusively. Go to Religious History

ParticipantJust how much SQL do you understand? Are you fluent in php? You know what I mean. Can you write scripts or are you like me and just follow the instructions of the writers and change the things you know won't hurt anything like the images or adding a text field here and there?

ParticipantI think the Strategic Defense Initiative was supposed to eventually have a network of nuclear lasers that could sweep a descending field of nuclear warheads. It's plausible, but just now getting to be practical. Reagan was ahead of his time here.

ParticipantI picked Beauvais because it looked rickety with all those buttresses. It probably was the most stable knowing how good I'm at guessing.
DonaldBaker
ParticipantYeah I'm seeing some blank image boxes on the post screen. You are missing a file here or your code is corrupted somewhere. Probably in a .tpl file like the viewforum file or the post body file or whatever is SMF's equivalent to phpbb.

ParticipantDonnieI think you nailed the primadonnas pretty well.When Hooker took over he said his headquarters would be in the saddle. ?Some wit said that his headquarters were where his hindquarters ought to be.A professor ?once said that P.T.G. Beauregard's name was taller than he was.
John C. Pemberton was the unluckiest general, but he wasn't all that gifted in military tactics either. In a way, most of the Civil War generals were oddballs one way or the other. 😀

ParticipantI think judicial activism is basically where a judge deviates away from set precedents and concrete language in the Constitution. When justices find gray areas or penumbras and make case law from personal judgment rather than defering to the legislatures to fill in the gray areas, I find this to be judicial activism. It is not the judge's place to create law where no law exists, it is his duty to send the case back to the legislatures with the summary judgment that a gap in the law exists and should be remedied. After the remedy is legislated, the justice can re-visit the case with a better hope of resolving the case itself.

ParticipantYou are the emperor. Why ask the plebes their thoughts? (lol)By the way, I opted for the simple subsilver at my forum, but I manipulated the style at the file level. I added new icons and edited some of the index body .gif's in paint to get the color I wanted. It is still a simple template, but not a vanilla subsilver either. I don't like extreme templates although I did like the one you had. This one is easier on the eyes though. I think that is more important than being all fancy. Just the humble opinion of a plebe.

ParticipantI have an rss reader on my postnuke site Phid. I could integrate it to that site by setting up an rss feed block. As soon as I figure out how to do it that is. (lol)

ParticipantThucydides………ah yes now I remember him. His war was supposed to be the greatest and most meaningful war since the Trojan War. I believe I did a short paper on the Peloponnesian War. Will have to dig that one out. When you go out to Barnes and Noble, please get the Penguin edition…….it's the best one out there.

ParticipantI dunno if I can read 50 pages a week anymore, darn dementia setting in.

ParticipantThe sugar industry was the culprit that led to the vast slave trade of Colonial South Carolina. The Planters from Barbados moved their operations to Charlestown in the late 1660's after Captain William Hilton explored the coasts of “Carolina” (1663) during the reign of Charles II. Chattel slavery was the economic engine that facilitated the rise in the sugar, rice, hemp, tar, and indigo industries until cotton became a major cash crop a generation later. Colonial South Carolinians were the richest colonists per capita in the British Atlantic colonies.
