GnomePROGRAM

CallCenter v3.5.7.5 [5.5M] W9x/NT FREE

I always call, but nobody's ever home. Why doesn't anyone bother to pick up anymore? Perhaps they're stuck using outdated software to help manage communications via their PC. They should probably look into downloading CallCenter. Here's a program with a great user interface that (when working with the correct type of modem) gives you answering machine functionality (single mailbox) on top of faxing capabilities. It even supports voice record & playback from a telephone handset (just like the classic answering machine). If you find that you demand more out of a software communications package, then be sure to check out it's big brother: CallCenter Pro (available for purchase at the site). Now, if only I could convince people to LEAVE a message when they call me...

GnomeCANDY

BarGuide v1.0 [158k] W9x FREE

By letting everyone out there in GnomeLand know about this file, I am not condoning underage drinking in countries (or states) that prohibit it. Nor am I promoting the consumption of alcoholic beverages. Now that the simple disclaimers are out of the way, it's time to make your next cocktail party more lively! Not all of us are professional bartenders (and some of us spent our time in college actually studying). Never fear, this download shall help those of us who aren't creative. You can fool your friends into believing that you received certification from the Bartender School of Lockergnome. If the drinks taste good enough, I'm sure you could tell them other tall tales. Even if you're short.

GnomeFAVORITE

Office Toys

Have you purchased your copy of Office 2000 yet? Microsoft is allowing you to be a guinea pig... er, I mean beta tester. Personally? I'll wait until it's final before I use it. Kinda like I uninstalled IE 5.0b2 the other day... I can wait (and you probably can, too). This site has got a handful of great (and some free) utilities that will enhance any user's Office 97 experiences. My favorite: Visual Fonts (preview fonts more easily). And it's not even Christmas yet...

GnomeDESKTOP

FONT: StilettoSilver [56k]

The only reason I liked Algebra in high school was because we got to use graph paper. Of course, I never actually used it for completing my assignments. I was too busy creating "string art" designs and other wacky things. If there was a font that could emulate string art, StilettoSilver is it. I can guarantee that it'll be one of the most original fonts you'll ever own.

GnomeTIP

Who doesn't like icons? Well, if you're using Windows 9x, you pretty much have to get used to them. Unless, of course, you're still using those 'great' 16-bit apps. To shrink the pixel spacing between your icons (which maximizes the space they take up in Explorer), pull up the Display Properties (right-click on your Desktop and choose Properties), select the Appearance tab, under the Item drop-down list, select "Icon Spacing (Horizontal)" and then "Icon Spacing (Vertical)". I have found that setting both of these numbers to 32 works well. Of course, you can play around with these settings and choose whichever ones you like most. Remember to write the "original" numbers down just in case you want to restore the settings.
