Let me know if you're struggling and I'll be happy to help :)

If you mean loading pages without actually totally refreshing the page, jQuery's load() method will do this. http://api.jquery.com/load/

Slightly outdated as I have rearranged the monitors a bit, but the wallpaper is still the same. It's pretty big, so here's a link. http://i49.tinypic.com/mls11w.png

19" rack-mount server with 10 hot swappable bays in a RAID 5 configuration? Check a well known auction site for some good deals on this; I recently picked up a 2U server with some quality specs for £50. Then all you would have to do is use some utlity to mirror a local folder onto the array...

I have it and I love it! The 64bit version is very fast and much more stable than XP and Vista.

If you pushed your budget a bit you could get a new Canon 17-55mm 2.8 IS which is highly regarded I believe. You could probably get it for around £600 used but I'm not sure.

Looks great but the navigation buttons could do with 1 or 2 pixels of left padding :)

I wanted Rick Astley to start singing: the biggest ever Rick Roll :D

Going by the bit of writing to the right, it is called the orton-effect. A quick Google came up with this http://pcin.net/update/2006/11/01/the-orton-effect-digital-photography-tip-of-the-week/ :)

Just thought I would update, 9 months on and the grip is still going great! Really good buy.

Thanks for the reply. I need a remote because I plan on using the camera on bulb mode with the welding glass. I shall take a trip to town tomorrow. Again, thanks.

Hello, It feel really bad posting this, but here it goes.. I am going on a 2 week holiday at the beginning of next week, 1 week in Spain and 1 week on a cruise. I have purchased one of them welding glasses from Dark Mutton, however I need some things. This is probably asking a lot, but...

Ah ok that makes sense :thumbs: Pretty clever idea actually.

Right clicking also works on all of these running Firefox in Ubuntu 9.04. Maybe for HTML galleries it's worth looking into what Flickr do; they have a 1x1 transparent GIF called "spaceball" which they position over the image so if you try and copy the picture, you copy the "spaceball" instead...

Same as this but you could probably get a used 40D instead of the D200. I think it all boils down to what you are most comfortable with. Try going to Jessops and handling some Canon/Nikon cameras and see which you prefer :thumbs:
