  Do Magpies get motion sickness?
Posted by: Tara - 19-03-2004, 10:55 AM - Forum: Fauna - Replies (3)

I have been watching a pair of Magpies build their castle 6 feet from the top of a massive Leylandii tree for the past 3 weeks.

Now, today, the tree is swaying back and forth in the heavy winds, so I hope they are feeling alright inside there! Big Grin

  printer suggestions
Posted by: Jangar - 18-03-2004, 11:22 PM - Forum: Your Computers, Gadgets and Software - Replies (2)

If the seperate colour cartridges are not a criteria but a nice to have then I suggest the HP Offiejet 655 or whatever the new model is called, it's not laser quality (no inkjet is...) and it's rather bulky and when copying the sizes aren't 100%...

On the plus side, you can buy a simple attachment so that you're able to print on both sides of the paper, it is also a colour photocopy machine and you can manually select the quality of print-outs as well as b/w and colour copies, you can even make b/w copies of colour images... Also the colour reproduction is outstanding...

If I recall correctly it even comes with great photo editing (for scanning purposes) software, though that may have come with my camera (also HP) so I am not 100% sure on this....

It's big boet comes with fax capabilities too...

  Photoshop Colours
Posted by: nataliiie - 18-03-2004, 07:50 PM - Forum: Your Computers, Gadgets and Software - Replies (4)

Please help. I'm new to digital imaging, and having trouble with my colour settings.

I have just installed Photoshop 7 and was asked in the set-up what colour settings I wanted. I had no idea what to choose and chose random settings. However, they are coming up horribly bright .. almost luminescent. What do I have to adjust to get 'normal' tones?

  Schools on the mainland..
Posted by: Icecub - 18-03-2004, 10:35 AM - Forum: Parenting and Children - Replies (3)

Can you lot tell me if the schools in the Uk are different to ours here on the Isle of Man, my son has physical problems but is very bright .. here on the Isle they mix the kids with special needs with the other kids...in other words no special schools are required...just have special needs areas in the school....they are all integrated together which is lovely to see....

Do they have the same facilities in the schools across??

If so...have u noticed if they have special needs co-ordinators with the kids, and have they integrated well with the other kids..

Or do they have separate schools for that???

  Virusses!!! Virusses!!!
Posted by: Bean of Love - 16-03-2004, 11:07 PM - Forum: Your Computers, Gadgets and Software - Replies (10)

I have been attacked....

A few weeks ago I noticed that my PC at home was running a bit slower....

So today I was reading up on viruses and Spyware... and proceeded to download AVG... as I already had Ad Aware on my PC.

I run Zone Alarm and McAffee, but with AVG it picked up some Trojan Horse things and a Belt.exe... There are about 3 more... Stubby A and Dialler something or the other....

As you can see, I am not exactly a Security Boff, but I am desperately looking for a remedy... The AVG cannot fix these virusses.....

HELPPPPPPP PLEASE :bigcry:

I hope I make some sort of sense here....
