Q: The picture
on the welcome page looks a bit off. What's wrong?
A: It is
supposed to look like that. It's been scanned at 16 DPI (mainly to
reduce mental traumas of first-time viewers). You can't blame your
video driver or your web browser or even your operating system for this
particular distorted picture.
Q: You mention
Firefox and Internet Explorer as capable of showing your pages. What
about other browsers?
A: I am aware
that there are other browsers besides the two big ones but
unfortunately I never got the chance to try any of them and therefore
didn't test my pages with any of them. (There are reports, though, that
people have successfully used Lynx, Opera, Google Chrome, Konqueror, Dillo, Blazer and
even QNX
browser on these pages to view them.)
Q: Why are there
no Back or Back To Top buttons on your pages?
A: Because
nearly every browser has a Back button of its own (the modern ones even
have the fancy ones with history and alike) and the vast majority of
GUIs used by today's modern operating systems have elements like scroll
bars to move the window contents up and down. Furthermore, there are
those mice with scroll wheels available for a fistful of euro cents at
every corner. So please use those features instead of the buttons in
question.
Q: I can't find
the Slovenian versions of
the pages. Where are they?
A: There
aren't any. Slovenian is a language
far too refined to be abused for things like webpages. If you
disbelieve,
please feel free to check some of its most
notable features .
Q: How dare you
use "here" as link text on most links on your link page?
A: Firstly,
most browsers show the URL of the link when you move your pointing
device cursor over it and secondly, most of the links on that page are
meant to be explored, so it would spoil the fun if it was instantly
obvious where they lead. Oh, and by the way, that isn't the link page.
Go there again and see what it's really called.
Q: Your
punctuation is terrible. Didn't you learn English at school?
A: We did, but
I was busy making kites during punctuation lessons. I'm trying to learn
proper punctuation from books now,
but in the meantime help yourself with these punctuation marks and
insert
them wherever you find it necessary: ,,,,,,,,,,,,,..........;;;;;::::
Q: I downloaded
one of your masterworks but it's complete and utter crap. Where can I
complain?
A: I'm very
sorry to hear that but there's little I can do about it. You'll just
have to delete it yourself.
Q: I downloaded
Wall128 only to find out that it isn't a TAP file as promised, but some
archive my operating system can't handle. Now what?
A: This is
fixed now. Please download the real TAP file
again (it's only 30 KB) and accept my deepest apologies for false
advertising.
Q: One
particular picture I found on your pages is so nice. Can I have it?
A: I can't be
sure you don't already, can I?
So, yes, please, go ahead, take it and use it for whatever you want.
Q: How do you
put your "Live
From Home" picture online? What
hardware and what
software do you use?
A: Nowadays I use a Logitech QuickCam Pro for Notebooks, connected to a Linux PC. This script does the image transfer, manipulation and upload. Details are (poorly but still) explained in the script itself. I used to use an old Kodak DC-280 digital camera and this script until the camera passed away of old age (and constant abuse and exposure to direct sunlight and so on) in the dawn of August 14th, 2007. This is the very last image it has ever succesfully recorded and uploaded.
Q: What can I do to correct the unfortunate design fault in AY-3-8912 sound output on my ZX Spectrum +3?
A: You can try to fix it yourself.
Here is how.
Q: Your postal
address reveals you are from Slovenia. What is it?
A: Slovenia is
the nicest country in Central
Europe. Follow this link to
find out more, or come around and see for yourself.
