8.31.98 - GnomeNEWS

Question: Why don't you show URLs for visiting sites & downloads in these HTML issues? Reason: the URLs could get too long, and cause formatting to be icky-poo. That's why, if you look at the bottom of EVERY HTML newsletter (at least, from this point onward), you'll find a URL pointing to an actual web page. That URL is there for two reasons: for those with non-HTML compliant clients who wanna still get this stuff daily, and also for those of you who want to copy/paste links, etc..

If all else fails, many HTML clients should let you right click on a message in the preview pane and "view source". That's the case with Outlook 98. In Outlook Express, you can hit CTRL-F2 or CTRL-F3.

I just didn't feel like cluttering up this type of newsletter with "ugly" URLs. I realize that this doesn't make some of you happy, but I can't please everybody. :) Remember, you should be set to receive the text weekly issues--that'll show you the URLs up front.

GnomePROGRAM

HotDog Professional v5.1 [7.6M] W9x/NT4 US$200

Yo quiero HTML. Lucky for us, this dog speaks that language fluently (HTML, not Spanish). This new version boasts of a 200% speed increase, which is nothing to growl at. It's not WYSIWYG (long live coders) and you didn't misread the price. HOWEVER, you get TONS of great Webmastering stuff: the faster HotDog HTML editor, Interactor DHTML editor (awesome), Linkbot site maintainer, plus Paint Shop Pro for HotDog. If you're looking for a good range of solid tools for development, you're barking up the right tree.

GnomeCANDY

ASCII Name Maker Pro v1.0 [6k] W9x/NT4 FREE

Sounds like an exciting program, but it really doesn't do much. However, where ASCII Name Maker Pro lacks in features, it makes up for in fun. Have you ever seen "cool looking text" with wacky characters replacing normal ones? This is a program which will help you convert vanilla text into killer type. For example (and this might not show up correctly for everyone): Lockergnome becomes Lö(c)kë(r)gñömë in an instant!

Stick Figure Death
Found by Richard Madrid

Tragic is the life of a stick figure. At first, I laughed at these funny little cartoons, but then I started to cry. Imagine being a stick figure for a second, and dying over and over again in various situations? Actually, now that I think about it and watch these again, I'm laughing. You'll probably bust a gut too (but not the way our friend, the stick figure, usually does). I guarantee you won't want to leave without watching them all first!

THEME: Jeep v3.0 [1.3M]

I'm happy with my '90 Ford Escort for the moment. I'll probably be getting a new car within the next year (although I'm not sure what kind yet). One thing's for sure, it won't be a Jeep. My brother (Ben) has a jeep, and they're just too small and sporty for my (rather conservative) tastes. This theme would be the closest thing I'd ever have to owning a Jeep; it's website has tons of great Jeepish info.

GnomeTIP

Save a step next time you download something using Internet Explorer. Sure, you're used to simply clicking a file to download it, but try RIGHT clicking on the file and choosing "Save Target As" from the menu. That way, it'll jump right to the "Save As" dialog box; it'll also open a "daughter" window for the download, so you can go about your merry way without having to wait for a response.
