Lockergnome

9.15.98 - GnomeNEWS

Since publishing my ICQ number (144832) in an earlier HTML issue, I've received thousands of ICQ messages from thousands of Lockergnome subscribers. Many of you called me insane... okay, so I'm a little insane. But I'm also easily accessible by any one of you. Does that overwhelm me? Yes, very much so. But I haven't reached the point of tuning you out. I hope I never do.

I must say that I've beaten my friend by gaining more contacts than he (the goal was 2000). I can't add everyone to my list, however, you're welcome to add me to your own. I can't promise to respond to everyone (depending on how busy I might be on a particular day). At certain times, you'll find that I'm available for chat--join in by clicking on my ICQ name and selecting "Chat." Join myself and other Lockergnome subscribers!

If nothing, then my "open" behavior is different from most other large software sites. I always want to keep this thing personal--that's part of the magic. If it sounds like I'm writing only to YOU, that's the point. I'm not just saying that Lockergnome's different, I'm showing you. Rock on!

GnomePROGRAM

DirectX Uninstaller v.07a [685k] FREE W9x
Found by Lockergnome Subscriber

While Microsoft took two steps forward when they started developing DirectX, they weren't too keen on making the uninstallation & replacement of newer versions with older versions very clean. Say you're having problems with DirectX 6, and you want to go back to DirectX 5 (which was working fine for you), you can use this UNOFFICIAL program to help you get things back to the way they were. I'd only recommend this for advanced users, because there are certain steps you need to take to make this work correctly. However, for anyone who has DirectX 5 (or 6), I'd suggest downloading the second listed URL (DirectX6cpl.exe) for the DirectX Control Panel applet.

Publish Girl's Font Conversion Tools
Found by a Lockergnome Subscriber

If your font fetish is something you can't ignore any longer, then this page should be right up your alley. There are some great True Type fonts out there, but what about those Mac ones? Impossible to convert? Not any longer! This page is full of utils that you can use to convert stuff from Mac to PC format. Desktop publishers who switch between systems will get the most out of this page. Be sure to swing around the site while you're there; you never know what you're going to learn!

Extracheez.com

When someone says CHEESE, I think of Brie. But when someone says EXTRA cheez, I think of an online community of networking professionals & systems engineers. After visiting this site, you'll see cheez in a whole different light, too. There are over 80 discussion boards on which you may discuss specific issues; many of them are hosted by certified professionals & published experts. There's also training & certification resources, a tech jobs area, news & product information, a tech bookstore, and a lot more! Registration is required, but it's relatively painless. Pass the cheddar...

THEME: Fruits-n-Veggies [557k]

Gretchen says that I don't eat enough fruits or vegetables. She's right, but I just don't find them very appetizing; I loathe corn & peas. Generally speaking, I like vegetables which "crunch," but there are very few of them around here. Oh, why do potatoes have so much starch in them?!

GnomeTIP

When was the last time you washed your hands? Oh really? Well do it again, cowboy. Germs spread quickly on keyboards, and the more you wash your hands, the less chance there is for you to spread (or possibly acquire) germs. Why is this a tip? Because I don't want you to get sick and have to skip a day of work (or classes). Wait, did I just say that? Nah, nevermind... don't wash your hands. Forget I said anything.
