HA j/k, it's obviously a pre-made CMS (content management system). You get zero points.

On the constructive side.
I'd say you need to clean up the header, by uploading a higher res. image.
Also the italic titles don't do it for me.

I might be able to bail on class that day. You all are going on the Saturday correct? If so I might be able to go, rent a car and visit my sis and brother in law the same weekend.

I'll be doing a wheel building clinic at Bike Chain next thursday if anyone is interested. I've built them before, but I've never told people how to do it, so we'll see how that goes.

Fixed gear content: I'll probably be building a Miche Track hub to an Open pro with DT spokes.

Not really.

TRaffic Jammer 02-08-07 10:37 PM

So we're going to the track on the third, yes?

tovi 02-08-07 10:43 PM

thanks for the comments, Shiznaz and lymbzero. I'll try to incorporate those suggestions.
Shiz: got a better font suggestion? The one I have now is quite plain.

I hope so, I don't want to fire off a 3rd email to this guy changing the registration from me. Would make me look like this guy.

No worries, on reading week so no class that night.

ipod users help me. I found a 30G ipod on the road last week and no one has claimed it. So questions abound.
I need to get a charger for it, one I can plug into my computer. Would future shop be a good place to look, or go to the apple store nearest me?

Next, once I get it plugged into my machine, to load music on it do I need to use itunes, or can I copy files from my machine straight to it? The settings on the machine are for windows, I checked before the battery died.

When it comes to apple products and ipods I am out of the loop so to speak.

I don't use an ipod but iTunes is teh evil. This is probably not very helpful but man i'm super bored.

more like pate/fois gras 101. i have since developed a mild dislike for terrines; something about cold mushrooms, cream and aspic just don't do it for me.

i have an extra USB to iPod cable, it will connect your ipod to your computer and charge it at the same time. you can have it.

where/when did you find it? and what kind of music is on it?

operator 02-09-07 04:37 AM

Wow lucky you. The person who lost it will have learned a hard lesson on how to secure there stuff.

You will need to D/L i tunes its free, get a cable to transfer, it dose charge through the cable as well but dose not pack as big of a punch as a wall charger. Cable is available at the places you mentioned.
Transfer your music from your confuser to i tunes then sync good to go (what’s on there now will be removed) done. Repeat.
Cheers

sweep242 02-09-07 08:39 AM

Mitch the bike looks great i like that chain it's a 1/8 right? On a 3/32 ring? How’s that working out?
I was thinking about putting on one of the colored KMC BMX chains. My ring & cog are 3/32
Cheers

Cool, thanks. I'll PM you about that.

Found it in a bus shelter last week on Pape. Stopped in to light a smoke around midnight on my home and there it was. Posted a few signs but no replies. All kinds of music on it. No name, no contacts listed, no engraved email on the back, nothing. SOL to whoever lost it. I want to keep some of the tunes, but most I want to ditch.

sweep242 02-09-07 08:49 AM

Oh for the triple Happy friday.
Boo Ya
Edit =Blocked oh well.

So if I download Itunes and plug it in transfering songs is no problem, same as any mp3? And can I delete music then? If only they had left the operating manual as well, how rude not to.

The hard copy manual is not very in depth. You can find out what you need to know on Apples site. To charge it you must have a USB 2.0 connection. Putting all yer music in I-tunes is a time consuming bee-atch (it took me nearly a month to get it all sorted) but once there it is really easy. If you want to move music from the I-pod to yer computers hard-drive you will need a program called sharepod (thanks Shammy!) I also think you don't want to synch it up for some reason...Sham can fill you in on that one. If you are coming for safety tonite we can sort you out here. LOL...8 weeks ago I knew nothing. Heading out to get a Nano for the G.F. for her B-day...anyone know the cheapest place downtown?
