images Here's a tip spamboy; only spammers start a post with 'check out the site'.... OK, so its spam, but if the site gets a little more populated, it might be a vaguely interesting comparison between living standards worldwide. |

By the time a nation is computer compatible it's too late. |

Given what you've just written Carlos, I think the number of people willing to let you and all have a peek inside their homes has somewhat declined ... Oh dear, and it was a good idea too ... -- Adrian C |

Yes there is another way to get people to visit your site, you insert the web address into your signature file and you *contribute* to any usenet groups you like,....for every reply you make, you get a free advert - it's called give and take, or to put it another way, you only get back what you are prepared to put in, instead of contributing nothing at all. HTH those ads only cover the server expenses, actually at moment nowhere near that. so we are spending hours and hours working on this for free, 'cause we just thought that this might get interesting. Not really. You've spent hours on it yes, but not for the good of mankind, you've done it (the same as everyone else) in an attempt to be successful and make money, so please, don't try and kid yourself that it's for any other reason. if you dont like the site, just shut the f_ck up. I don't know if i like the site or not because I haven't visited, nothing would persuade me or 99% of others to visit a site promoted by spam, I will however click on links in signatures though.

sorry about being rude, but phil l was rude first.
i'm quite new to this, and i was really annoyed by that answer. its hard to get a site going, and then someone bashes my attempts. and yes if that web sites gets big enough to make good money, that sure would be great but if it doesn't, it does not matter. we all have day time jobs we like. i didn't think about what phil said about having the site name as a signature. what agreat idea! - i stop doing what i've done so far and start with that. anyway, it was boring just to copy and paste.

great that you've found the site useful. thats what it's for, to help
people to get ideas and to see what life is like around the globe. we can't make the max size too small, some digital cameras make files up to 1,5 megs and if people need to resize the photo by themselves they might not post anything at all. an image can be up to 4 megs and after it's been uploaded our administrator resizes it. the images on our site should be less than 80 kb's, so he propably forgot to resize some images. but we are double checking the database every now and then, and corrcting all mistakes.

I think it is a great site, I certainly found it interesting, and have already gained some inspiration for decorating the lounge here at home in the coming weeks from a picture I saw therein. You also might save some costs on bandwidth if you restrict the size of the photos folk can upload. There is one I was looking at of a kitchen which is almost 250Kb in size; far too much for use on a web site. -- Newsreader - Gravity 2.70b (build 2067) My reply address is invalid - please post to the group. |

You should also learn the rudimentaries of Usenet Nettiquette. Top posting raises a lot of ire as the treads become tangled. If there are any redeeming factors in this one, it is that you are learning and that the site may give some would be decorators on here a few pointers. However you aught to be aware that a lot of strange people inhabit the internet and some of them are downright dangerous so you had better warn people not to let out too many details that could give away privacy and the inherent security of nominal secrecy. Not all that long ago Microsoft suspended its talk website as ill informed people on there were getting into trouble from stalkers and the like. There is an history of murderers and rapists finding victims online. |
