    Equipment?

    I have 2Gb of RAM and 550Gb of Hard drive space available for this work. I also have it stored on a second computer and a web server, just in case. My last computer having exploded in a cloud of smoke (literally) I know how important it is to backup.

    Are you freakin serious?

    PHP is so simple though. I mean, that should be a good thing but I enjoy the challenge of getting C++ to work, not to mention programming C++ just reeks of nerdiness ;-) I have downloaded GTK+ before, but I never used it. I have read it's the best free GUI library around though. Maybe I'll...

    Multimedia Peoples!

    I'm not doing multimedia but I know what you're talking about in terms of pushing the boundaries. I'm doing a machinima video myself. That said, there are a few issues you'll need to look out for. The Board of Studies does indeed (obviously) offer Multimedia as an option, but do keep in mind all...

    the woes of stagnation

    If you can't see what needs to be done maybe someone else can. I recommend giving a copy to a number of people you know and trust to give honest feedback. Get them to tell you what it need, point out any trouble spots, etc. If the overall piece seems satisfactory to them all then look at spit...

    Ideas for Major Works

    Obviously you still haven't read it. Try again.

    Ideas for Major Works

    Just to verify your claims, perhaps you could name the 'student' you have 'spoken' to. Perhaps you could, for once in your rather pathetic argument, read the second post. I refuse to argue with you until you have at least read previous posts. If you continue to be too lazy to do so I would...

    Ideas for Major Works

    I hardly think you're the one to talk about immature mis-quotes, but I'm glad you noticed it, maybe it will help you realise what you've been doing in most of your posts. Although, I am dismayed to see that you are still ignoring the argument and instead creating your own. You should take up...

    Ideas for Major Works

    So... mis-quoting is a method to ensure that my remarks are replied to? CAN YOU PLEASE READ.... better question: can you read? OK, let's indeed look at these two threads. Thread 1: You bitch about me not looking up some figures. Wait a second, you posted first with a distinct lack of figures...

    Ideas for Major Works

    Seeing as you were so keen to check my story perhaps you could give me a name so I could return the favour? And please, if you can't be bothered to make a serious attempt at posting, don't bother. Also, if you want to quote something that people can read 3 lines before that's fine but...

    Ideas for Major Works

    No, I believe being ever-pendantic is a much less endearing trait. There was definately a mainland phoenicia. Last time I check Egypt was not involved in very heavy colonisation. Phoenicia (even if not united) had colonies scattered all across the Mediterrainean that united under Carthage after...

    Who only does Ext 1 to do Ext 2?

    orange_blob do you go to normo? (that 2 A.M. story sounds very familiar)

    Ideas for Major Works

    I never said it was unlikely. It is, in fact, most likely. However, the degree to which it is true must be called into question. Many texts of the time portrayed them as savage barbarians that slaughter children for afternoon entertainment (perhaps exaggerated slightly). That is doubtful. When...

    Who only does Ext 1 to do Ext 2?

    I have to agree with passion89, extension 1 english can get pretty complicated, and at times boring, but overall I think it's a good course. Shame my english ability seems to have disappeared this year :(

    Ideas for Major Works

    I was also originally looking at doing something in the area of Western Phoenicia (Carthage). There were many malicious rumours spread about Carthaginian society (such as infantcide) as both the Greeks and Romans hated them. Despite being major contributors to our modern alphabet the...

    Progress on Major Works

    I imagine your proposal was a brilliant piece of creative writing then. :) You better hurry, it will be harder to improvise a viva voce.

    Competing Narratives

    If you feel like calling Normanhurst do so. Keep in mind I do not know the exact word limit, only that the past examples (yes, they were the actual assignments) were of the length I described. Oh, and pwaryuex, perhaps you could tell me what exactly you have questioned as there seemed to only be...

    Development Environments

    I don't feel it will ever reach maturity, the syntax makes it alot more difficult than with more recent languages. Yes, I will probably resort to using Visual Basic or Euphoria (or maybe even a web based language like PHP) depending on what sort of project I am doing. I would most prefer C++...

    Competing Narratives

    I fail to see the point of quoting a post that can be seen on the same screen, and by ignoring my 'bullshit' you end up spouting bullshit of your own.

    Development Environments

    Just to clarify, I do understand C++ but I have never endeavered to create a GUI application using it. I also do know there are many libraries but I was more concerned with finding a tool that will steamline the process. Manually positioning and configuring GUI elements is quite frustrating when...
