woops, scratch that in regards to tiny images, isnt till your traverse to the direct link ( rather than embedded ) that you get a full screen option. My bad.

while whats readable is insightful and makes sense, it tends to lose its charm with the teeny tiny pictures - however I'm sure they we're very self explanatory on a projection unit.

I've never understood the constant complaints about Joomla and SEO compatibility i guess it depends on your stance on the issue and until the likes of Google, Live, Yahoo open up there source ( never ) there is no real definitive way to tell what really works other than 'keeping everything in its place'

Personally i have ran numerous CMS systems for periods of time with little SEO effort and little in terms of SE figures, however my little effort on Joomla ( 1.5 more so ) has boosted my own SE figures beyond my own expectations, I'm sure for those out there that wish to sit around and fiddle with J! till its highly optimized, then do it all again when something changes its worth it BUT! for the average joe bloggs - its quite functional as is providing you remember your meta tags and descriptions and follow the very BASIC outlines ( title lengths, amount of meta tags, meta description length and of course keyword -> content relevance.

and as a last note, that cake looked great

Energymech is one of those projects that just seems to surprise you with the we're not dead yet posts - i would love to hear from anyone using mechs why they use them over say eggdrops, for my own curious reasons of course.

Re: ratbox updates

X-Ception — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 09:23:02 -0000

beta 4 and 5 have now been removed from our downloads and beta 7 is the only hosted 3.0.x version we currently hold, also note that as with ratbox-services ratbox-ircd is now used, however yes im aware its ircd-ratbox but that just complicates thing so its a semi illogical naming system we're using but it makes way much more sense ;)

Re: ratbox updates

X-Ception — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 09:21:24 -0000

Downloads have been updated to include to two new versions, also note that these versions actually use the correct name structure rather than the pretty one that somehow made its way in there :D

Re: X-Chat 2.8.6 Released

X-Ception — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 23:16:38 -0000

Seems a good release, well thought out however still lags a touch behind the windows version in terms of features but not unexpected.
