RE:[wdvltalk] is this site good?
Joseph: What did you like about it? I looked at it for 30 seconds and wanted to leave. The colors pink and odd gray blue look like, in fact the whole design looks like they sell baby clothes, baby stuff. An amateurish and immature, teenager's personal page feel. Maybe that works for them. The large cental photo of the cosmetics: this is a classic blooper, you should never show photos of the product. You should show photos of (1.) the product in use (2.) by a typical customer (3.) solving a problem or gaining a benefit with the use of the product. Sorry. don't mean to berate your judgment, I just don't like this site from an instant "blinked" intuitive reaction to the home page. If I spent more time operating it, I might see good aspects, but the immediate visual impression of a site is of utmost importance. = Steven Streight Web Usability Analyst & Content Writer Blogologist Digital Media Artist Virtual Instrument Music Composer http://www.vaspersthegrate.blogspot.com http://www.streightsite.blogspot.com http://www.arttestexplosion.blogspot.com EMAIL: [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do You Yahoo!?

I would not want to copy it, but I was impressed by some aspects of www.barrym.com (don't ask why I visited it) and particularly by the floating shopping basket. Would you agree this is good design?

RE: [wdvltalk] OT: MS Office
Assuming your are running XP Pro, in My Computer under Tools go to folder options from the View tab scroll down to the very last option and remove the checkmark from "Use simple file sharing (Recommended)", apply and then at the top apply to all folders. Next go to the level above the folder holding all those docs. Right click under properties, remove the mark in the read only box and apply. You should get a message that this will change the settings on all files. Okay and you should be able to work on the files. Note that if you do not turn off simple file sharing sometimes Windows will see the file as locked when it shouldn't be. Right pain in the ... , it is.

The attribute has to first be set to read only (+r), even though it is already read only, and then removed (-r). I've never done it for a directory but I would think you could apply it recursively. You'd want something like (assuming an xp system): attrib +r C:/big directory/subdirectory /s And then attrib -r C:/big directory/subdirectory /s Have a look at: http://www.computerhope.com/attribhl.htm So you shouldn't have to do it one file at a time. drew The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: wdvltalk@lists.wdvl.com To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk http://www.wdvl.com ___ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.

[wdvltalk] OT: MS Office
I've happily got my new supercharged PC up and running - thanks to those that have provided advice if I haven't said it already. However, I have a problem with MS Office. I have moved all my Word Documents from the old HD to the new one but every time I open one and change anything then try to save, it says the files is marked Read Only and I have to save under a new name. I've searched the Help files on the PC but cannot find anywhere on how to remove Read Only - plenty of advice on how to make a file RO! Even tried some of the MS online groups without success. This is a real problem as the files I'm changing are Policies and Procedures and guidance I issue to clients in connection with Health and Safety Legislation. They can tell the latest one when I issue them as the "last updated" date is in the footer and automatically updates when I change anything. I then simply copy the whole lot to a CD and send them out - or email them if that is what they prefer. This problem means I have to save under a different name, go in and delete the old one, then rename the re-named file to the original name - as I have over 300 of these that will need changing at some point it's a right P-I-T-A!! Can anyone tell me how to remove the RO feature from this entire folder - and many others I also have that seem to have suffered the same fate? I haven't even looked at my Excel and PowerPoint Files yet - they may be the same! Relying on the help of you clever folk as always!! Thanks in advance for any tips.

RE:[wdvltalk] other discussion lists
I'm looking for discussion lists, great quality like wdvltalk, but on topics like: * PC security * blogs * business blogging * wikis and wiki development * web site usability * wiki usability etc. I have Googled "discussion lists" and "blog discussion lists", I have searched Google Groups, to no avail. Lots of garbage SE hits. Why is it so hard to locate these lists, which I'm sure must exist? = Steven Streight Web Usability Analyst & Content Writer Blogologist Digital Media Artist Virtual Instrument Music Composer http://www.vaspersthegrate.blogspot.com http://www.streightsite.blogspot.com http://www.arttestexplosion.blogspot.com EMAIL: [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do you Yahoo!?
