I thought you guys (and gals :) ) might get a kick out of this. About a month ago we were having a discussion about companies that steal the look and feel of other companies' websites. Some of you may remember the old look of macromedia's site. Well so does this company http://www.smartppc.com/ . Unless I'm missing something, these guys are either thieves or extremely lazy & aware of a loophole. Check it out!

Colin! Haven't seen you around here much lately. How's the computer treating you? Taking to Windows ok?

Bah, lots of school, no flash :( I've been posting alot in the General Chat forum, because since I haven't been steadily flashing anymore, I've become actionscript blocked most of the time. Takes me a while to spit out an easy code. I know, it sucks.


Anyway, I'm trying my best to contribute, its tough though. And with my parents getting dissapointed in my school grades again *I don't know why an 85% average is so bad* it's likely I won't be on alot. BUT, AS.org is the best, and the best it will remain. So I'll be on no matter what... or try ;)

See you around hopefully, Colin.

EDIT: Almost forgot. Windows. My new friend. Of course I hate the crashes and all the c*** that comes with Windows, but I'm digging all the software. Good array of stuff. Getting into PC gaming too, just got Halo. Amazing game. I just wrote a review for it for a gaming site I'm on, gimme the word and it shall be posted.

Good to hear from you. I know it sounds trivial now, but turning those Bs into As will pay off in the long run. School comes first and AS.org will always be here when you have the time. No worries.

All the best.

85% is an A here... infact, last year I had a 90% average, without even lifting a finger.

Its also too bad that people have no imagination. I mean, use your minds, be creative!
