Many sites use loads of <blockquote> and <code> tags (or other types of block text tags) to house text. Most of these are inserted in a post, be it a forum, blog, or other post. Problem is, if there is a load of content in these blocks, it can quickly take over your whole post, and give users a never ending scrollbar. With 2 css properties, you can change this, without adding load to your server.

Opera 9.2 was really quite good. It had features that could compare to Firefox3[1. Or at least the version avalible at the time], used less system resources, was faster, and looked better (when you themed it). Opera has had a beta out for a while, but what really enthralled me was the addition of Dragonfly.
Evernote is an application that lets you store and create notes. Its pretty much a virtual spiral notebook. While the actual application idea for Evernote has been around for a while[2. An early version shipped with my graphics tablet back in 05], it has gotten a recent overhall, and is much nicer to use now.

Many forums let you have a signature. Many forums also let you have an avatar. But many forums limit the amount of images you have in your signature, and i have yet to see a forum that lets you have more than one avatar. There is a simple way you can have a signature that rotates on page reloads, or even use it as an avatar. Read on to find out how. You will need PHP, apache, and some images.

<p>The common way to install things on a server, be it web or otherwise, is to download the files to a local machine, then ftp each file up to the destination server. This is horribly inefficient, as you have to transfer the files 2 times, and your connection likely isnt too fast. There is a better way. If your webhost or server host is unix, and provides shell access. If this is the case, you can download the file, by sending commands to the server to download it. You will need a ssh client, on windows, you can use 815417267f76f6f460a4a61f9db75fdb%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.putty.nl%2F%22%3EPuTTY%3C%2Fa%3E%2C%20a%20free%20ssh%20client.%20When%20you%20log%20into%20the%20server%2C%20you%20can%20download%20any%20file%20directly%20to%20your%20server%2C%20as%20long%20as%20you%20know%20the%20url%2C%20using%20the%20following%20command.%3C%2Fp%3E%0A%3C%2Fpre%3E0fbd1776e1ad22c59a7080d35c7fd4db <div class="alert">Paradox Designs is not responsible for any damage that is caused by the contents of the following post.
