if you are just looking to host a few pictures, you can get that free.

well, depending on how many pictures and how big they are.

targeting blank pages is nasty. And with the wonders of middleclick in FireFox I should have seen it.

i open links in new tabs most of the time already, and most of the time someone decides that a link should open in a new window i'm opening it in a new tab anyway so no real problem.  but if i don't like what i'm looking at and i want to replace it, i CAN'T.  so they took that away from me, and the closest i can do is open it in a new tab and close the tab with the link, but then i've lost my history.  if target isn't specified, all options are still available to me.

since my other post got a good response, i'll preach a little more:
i use firefox's web developer extension to keep my browser sized to 800x600, though my monitor is 1600x1200 at home and 1024x768 at work (that one's a crappy LCD and can't do any better), and i also have javascript disabled by default, and only turn it on for sites that require it.  (i use this extension to help with that).
no site should ever require javascript.  and it's not that hard either!  for example, the case of wanting a link to open in a new window can be done by specifying this:

<a href="javascript:window.open('somepage.html');">unfriendly link[/url]

that link will do nothing for me, because i have javascript off.  it also breaks the middle-click option to open it in a new tab.  javascript should NEVER show up in the href attribute--instead use onclick:

<a href="somepage.html" onclick="javascript:window.open('somepage.html'); return false;">friendly link[/url]

the return false part of that one means that the browser should ignore the fact that the user just clicked on the link.  it's already done window.open() and we don't need it to follow the link so we get two of somepage.html.  for people without javascript, or for middle-clicks, the onclick is ignored.

i used to use javascript in my photo album to pop up a bigger photo on top of the rest of the page when you clicked on the smaller preview.  if javascript was off, it just acted like a link to the picture.  i have since replaced that with opening a page for each photo with a description.

back to talking about word, i tried the word processor in openoffice[/link] and it doesn't look as fancy as word, but it is WAY better.  not that that's saying much.
also whatever openoffice calls its thing that does the same thing as the equation editor you can install with word is insanely better than equation editor because you don't have to use the penis.  i just wish i would have found that back when i was writing lab reports because it probably would have taken me half the time to write them in openoffice rather than word.

capitalized tags, and the target attribute?  you are SO not validating under xhtml 1.1 [/geek]

1. People who spell it 'faerie' should be slapped.  This is not a prescriptive grammar point - it's just that observation has shown that people who do this, are inevitably people who need to be slapped.

i very much agree with this statement.

my fiancée has been out of state since mid-january, and we usually see each other on weekends.  during the week while it is just me sleeping in the bed, it never needs to be made!  of course she comes for a weekend, and after the first night all the covers have somehow managed to rotate 90° together or the sheet falls off one side of the bed and the blanket falls off the other . . .

basically what i'm trying to say is that if she made the bed i would see no reason to thank her, as if it weren't for her it would not need to be done at all.  also, i end up making the bed every night if she slept in it the night before because i need my covers in order -- and i never get thanked for that.

Ugly people are no longer allowed to use photos of themselves as avatars.[/size]

how are we to know if we are ugly?  do i need to sign up for hotornot.com with my avatar or something?

I'm confused. Are they back at the hotel? If so why is Ray still wearing newspaper? Where is Lyle and why isn't he mad ripping on Ray?

either today's strip is being imagined like i suggested, or theodore didn't approve of beef's fun and walked away.  lyle wasn't ever there as far as i know
