How about a LINKS page

Post #1 by RichardJW~ » Mon Oct 06, 2008 4:22 pm

With all these great links been proposed by the folks on here can we have a page where we can post them in to?


I'd like to add this 1 http://community.webshots.com/user/xbl003x

Good idea but that particular page has so many popups that f*cks the computer that Internet Explorer died.
My suggestion is that we avoid or at least warn about such pages.

pop up blocker perhaps? anyway it isn't my site, just one I had stashed in the favourites.

I thought that seeing as how there was that good one posted of DW21 > 657 (and others) it would be handy if we could put them under a seperate heading.

Robban.
If you have internet explorer 7 you can activate the pop up blocker, you will find it under TOOLS ...

I know and I dont blame you for anything at all. 8-)

Martyn, I have IE7 and I have the "block popups" acitvated. But something strange still happened.

Anyway, a links page or a links thread is still a good idea. :thumbs_up:

The pop-up blocker also blocks useful pop-ups! Like the information about new private messages.
I have turned all such blockers off.

But, back to topic ...
I am thinking about about installing a link-directory.
Or would a separate forum for link-suggestions be more convenient?

i would of thought that a separate forum would be better Holger rather than a link directory, so the guys can put their finds on there to dissus :thumbs_up:
