Links for Sunday September 22, 2002

If anyone would like to download a US Flag for their email or web site here are a few I found.
To download any Flag just right click on it and click on Save Picture as:
Keep your flag outside all of the time.
Remember the flag must be lit up at night. So leave it out all night, just put a light on it.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

If anyone would like a really cool picture I took when AaronK was up here click here, It makes nice Wallpaper.

Interesting Websites

Deepak found something in Macromedia Flash 6 you all should know about. There is a setting that by Default the web site can "Allow the web site to access your microphone and camera." you should turn it off.
http://www.macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/help/settings/

It is Jim Eshelman’s web site
(This is a great troubleshooting and Windows help site)

If you're like many of us, you have by now quite a collection of JPEG files--digital photos, scanned photos, and downloaded pictures. There should be an easy way to view all these pictures--and there is. All you have to do is get a copy of Vallen JPegger. Vallen JPegger does JPEG, BMP, and about 38 other picture formats.

A reader asked how to eliminate permanently the Netscape 6 sidebar. The sidebar offers a number of useful tools, but is often in the way when you need more desk space for your web pages. What we do is simply click the small handles that appear at the right side of the sidebar. This causes the sidebar to disappear off the left side of the screen.

We've all seen programs that offer you the option to keep its window always on top of whatever else is open. However, you may well encounter some programs that you'd like to keep on top that lack this option. This is no problem if you have a copy of Always On Top Maker from FAD Software.

This small (24 KB) freeware program will keep almost any program window on top.

Although Outlook Express 6 automatically compresses your mail folders when they reach 20 percent wasted space, you might want to compress periodically the folders manually. To do this, run Outlook Express and choose Tools|Options. When the Options dialog box opens, click the Maintenance tab.

Click Clean Up Now. When the Local File Cleanup dialog opens, click Compact. When the operation finishes, click Close. Back in Options, click Close to dismiss the dialog box.
