10.9.98 - GnomeNEWS

I'm always thrilled to receive feedback from you guys (and gals). However, since moving this distribution from a bi-weekly to daily/weekly basis, the amount of feedback and comments through e-mail has increased tenfold. I love reading your personal stories, but if I don't have the opportunity to respond to them, don't take offense. I read everything that crosses my Inbox, and do my best to reply when possible. Since I've spent most of my time dealing with "getting married" in the last month or so, a lot of your mails have gone 'unanswered' (but not unread).

For instance, many of you told me that there were alternatives to shots already out (and new technologies right around the corner). And, when I mentioned something about a high school bully contacting me, some of you had your own two cents to add. Hearing from me every day makes you a bit more apt to hit that "feedback" button--and there's NOTHING WRONG with that. If you get a one or two word response from me, that's normal. Why? Because I have quite a few others to respond to, as well.

So, don't stop talking to me, gang. I'm still listening. Life is busy, and I'm sure it will only get busier. I just wanted to let you know that: YES, I'm still alive when you send me a message and I don't respond. And YES, I still love ya. J If nothing else, swing by the Lockergnome Newsgroups with any news reader (the server is news.lockergnome.com). Hook up with other Gnomies!

NewFolder v1.60 [4k] W9x FREE

Thanks to Windows, our hard drive is littered with countless folders. And what do we do when we want to make a new folder? We have to open the parent folder and then create one. But, what if there was an easier (and quicker) way to do that? Here's a very small Explorer add-on which will help you create one or MULTIPLE new folders (including sub-folders) from the context-menu of drives or existing folders. It'll also work from a command prompt (and supports Long File Names). If you create folders more often than you brush your teeth, I'm sure you'll shave a few minutes off of your work week with this freebie. The author is open to suggestions, so be sure to let him know how this product can be improved upon!

GnomeCANDY

Dot Studio
Found by Catherine Proulx

Love is an international language, no? Well, while icons aren't quite as life-changing, they're pretty much international, too. So when you run into Japanese text at this site, you can ignore it (or click on the "English" link), and then move directly to downloading the great sets of icons the author has uploaded. You'll find great system, software, cyber, Start Menu, and regular menu icons--all of which have a bluish tint. Mac users, never fear--there's a link to download those archives, too. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: you can never have too many icons. That is, unless (of course) your hard drive is incredibly small.

Joan Stark's ASCII Art Gallery

It's been forever since I've tried to create any new ASCII Art... what's that? They're graphics (or text) that are formed when regular "ASCII" characters are put together. The smallest ASCII Art you're probably familiar with is the emoticon (a sideways smiley). :) And that's just the beginning of the fun! For bigger (and infinitely better) ASCII pictures, head on over to this site. It's amazing how some people can be so creative with everyday "characters." You'll want to spend three hours at this site alone... if you can name it, it's probably already been done in ASCII. There's even directions on how to make your own ASCII Artworks. Awesome!

THEME: Dharma & Greg [1.1M]

I don't watch TV that often, unless I'm bored or don't feel like sitting in front of a computer screen. But I never try to miss ABC's Wednesday night lineup. Dharma & Greg is a funny show... plus, it doesn't hurt that Jenna Elfman is hot. I'm also starting to warm up to Two Guys, A Girl, & A Pizza Place. And you can't beat Drew Carey! Who's Line is it Anyway is another awesome show... although the "classic" was a bit more exciting (and had a better host). Put down that remote control!
