Hi!
Have any of you used GameTap? If so is it really as cool as they make it look and sound?
Here is from the site:
"GameTap gives you unlimited access to hundreds of the world’s greatest videogames, all through your broadband PC. Console games, arcade classics, modern PC hits and even brand new exclusive titles—GameTap has them, and all for one low monthly fee. It’s easy to use, and no special hardware is required—just the broadband PC you already own. With new games added every week, GameTap is an unparalleled collection of classic, new and exclusive videogames!"
Here is a link if you need to look at GameTap.com to see if it lookslike as much fun as it seems it might be:
http://www.gametap.com/
Thank you!
I've used gametap. They have 100-300 games, most of them are very old. The newer ones are at least 3 years old. I didn't stick with it after the trial, but you might enjoy it. Be aware that gametap is about to make most of their services free; with a paid option for extra features.

I downloaded GIMP - I'm not having a problem with the program at all. But when I go to save - it won't let me. But I can copy/paste the image into paint and save it that way.
Does anyone know how I could possibly cut out the copy/paste to paint portion, because it's becoming a pain in the ass?
Saving is somewhat complex, make sure you're doing it correctly. Go to file>save. Type "stuff.gif"(without quotes) in the first box, in the dropdown select "desktop". Click ok. Click export. The picture should be on the desktop.
If that doesn't work, just uninstall the GIMP and GTK+, delete C:\program files\gimp-2.0 and C:\program files\common files\gtk, and download and install them from the site again( http://tinyurl.com/56a9c ). That almost always fixes every problem. If it doesn't, tell us what specific error message it gives you when you try to save.

what is a cantillion?
I'm pretty sure there is no such word. It would help if you said in what context you heard it. You may mean centillion, which is 1 followed by 303 0s.

is limewire illegal? i heard it's not because its bases are located in australia or something..? is this true? and could someone explain to me the jist of why/why not its illegal
The program isn't illegal. Downloading copyrighted music or movies is. Limewire LLC will never get in legal trouble because you download music; you will. Limewire pro doesn't make it legal. It doesn't matter that are located outside of the US.
Holahayley56 is incorrect, it is always illegal to download copyrighted movies without the permission of the copyright holder; no exceptions.
BL4CKB3L7_F41RY is correct, but Canada is very much the exception, the UK and US both don't allow you to download. Also, most P2P programs(limewire included) automatically upload the file as you download it, and after you download it, breaking even Canada's laws.

I'm testing the search box feature in advicenators, it seems that either it has been disabled or it doesn't work with boolean queries.

but like in a physical kind of love not a best friend love (well both), she likes to lead me on but she's straight. what should i do?
**edit: I know what you wanted, the search is tailored to get what you want. Including (lesbian OR straight OR gay) ensures the question you find talks somehow about their sexual orientation(as you do), and (like OR love) is included because some people say "like" instead of "love". The search was to get results, not to make a point, I just included results of... to show you that advicenators gets a lot of similar questions(297), and you should have searched using the built in search feature or google(google works better)**
http://tinyurl.com/2cyszv
Results 1 - 10 of about 297 from advicenators.com for "best friend" (like OR love) (lesbian OR straight OR gay)

Does anyone know of any other advice websites on the net where I can have my own advice column besides advicenators?
Nothing quite like advicenators, but take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Knowledge_markets for a short list of similar sites.

where can i purchase a roll of that police tape that says "police line-do not cross" or something like that? does anywhere sell it, or do you have to be in the police force?
No, not exactly that. You can get similar looking "do not cross" tape that looks like the police's at some hardware stores.

i just got a new comuter. on my old one i had a photoshop but i have no idea where it came from. i wanna put it on my new one. but i don`t know where i can find a FREE DOWNLOADABLE photoshop.
do you ?
You can't legally download photoshop for free. Use the GIMP instead, it's nearly as good as photoshop: http://tinyurl.com/56a9c . If you're used to photoshop, you can use GIMPshop, which has a similar interface: http://www.gimpshop.com
If you have the registration key from your version of photoshop, you can download the trial version of photoshop from http://adobe.com , and input your registration key when it asks you for it. Make sure to download the trial of the same version you have the key for.

I hit something on my keyboard to make everything appear smaller. How do I reverse this and make everything regular size, considering I'm not sure what I pressed?
If it's just your browser, press ctrl + (control and plus key at the same time). If your entire screen, right click the desktop, go to properties, appearence tab, change "font size" to "normal". If that's not it, take a screenshot of the problem, upload it to an image hosting site, and send the link(and whatever other details you have) to me in a private question.

Hey there I was wondering how I can make a colored picture black and white on paint. Or are you not able to do it on paint? Because I pulled up a picture on paint and I have been trying to make it black and white except it is not working :(
No, you can't do that in paint. Try the GIMP( http://gimp.org )

I recently heared that PSP's get internet service. is that true? & do you ahve to pay to get on the internet. Also what other things can you do on a psp.
thanks in advance
You have to have to be near a WiFi access point to get free internet access. There are some in the downtown area of most cities, and you are usually always in range of one in very big cities. If there isn't one near you, you can set one up by buying a wireless router(usually about $50); this connects to your existing connection and broadcasts it to 50-100 feet. You can read the wikipedia article for more PSP features:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playstation_Portable
[view]
Is there any possible way I can get internet on my PSP without a router and without having to pay any extra money? There aren't any access points around my house...
I just want to know... Is there a way to get wireless internet in my house without having to pay anything for it?
Sorry, no. You don't have to pay extra if you buy a router(but of course, you pay for the router).

I don't know if this is the right category but here it goes. I don't know if this helps but it always seems to help in one way or another...14/f haha. Okay, anyways. I'm currently an athiest but I'm very interested in some religious things. I'm interested in wicca and I forgot what this was called but it's where you believe in nature and it's signs. But I'm leaning more towards wiccan ideas. Are they athiestic or nothiestic? I'm just wondering. And if there is anyone out there who can teach me little by litte [I'm horrible at reading online stuff and learning in that way.]
Thanks!!!
Wicca is considered theistic, as almost every religion is. The best wicca primer is Maiden Moon, which you can read here(PDF):
http://www.maidenmoon.com/MaidenMoon1.1.pdf
You need only read the first half of the book to learn what you need, which is only about 50 pages. I've found that there are a lot of parallels between Christianity and wicca, which I didn't particularly like.
Maiden Moon will direct you to Dragon Tradition Wicca( http://dragontradition.com ), where you can contact people to teach you. But you should read the book first.
If you don't like Dragon Tradition, you can look for online groups of the other traditions, which the book covers.
I'm not sure which nature religion you refer to, maybe you'll find it here:

Is it possible to drink TOO much water? If so, why??
It's rare to die from too much water. It takes a little less than a gallon of water to put you at risk, if you're just sitting not doing anything. If you're exercising, it'll be much more. NEVER limit your water intake to prevent excess water, you are much, much more likely to die of dehydration than water intoxication. If you are thirsty, drink. If you are not thirsty, don't drink. It's as easy as that.
The first respondent is correct about it unbalancing your salt and electrolyte levels.

Sometimes when i put my computer in hybernation mode this error message comes up:
A problem has been detected and windoes has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again follow these steps:
Disable or uninstall any antivirus, disk defragmentation or back up utilities. Check your hard drive configuration, and check for any updated drivers Run CHKDSK /F to check for har drive corruption, and then restart yout computer.
Technical information:
*** STOP: 0x00000024 (0x001902FE, 0xF79CAD14, 0xF79CAA1U, 0xF7694FF3)
*** Ntfs.sys - Address F7694FF3 base at F766B000, Datestamp 45cc56a7
Beginning Dump of physical memory.
Physical memory dump complete.
Contact your system administrator or technical support group for further assistance.
What does this error message mean??
Can someone please supply me wit any information on this please? Thanks heaps.
Error 0x00000024 indicates the disk is becoming corrupted. Back up all your data now, as you will likely need to reformat it within a few months. This is normal, and happens once ever 6 months to 2 years. To try to fix it, go to start, then run, type exactly this:
chkdsk /f /r
A window will pop up asking if you want to scan at restart, type "y"(without quotes) and press enter. Restart the computer as soon as you conveniently can, and it will check the computer. If that doesn't work, put your windows install disk(not recovery; if you don't have the windows disk, get it from your computer manufacturer) and type in start>run:
sfc /scannow
If neither option works, just set it to not hibernate in control panel>power options>hibernate, and uncheck hibernate.

As the person below me says, stepahine.com is taken. Also know that those domain names cost about $15 per year. The next best thing is a free subdomain, which I would be happy to provide; like stepahine.theymos.com . I would also be happy to host and design your website, all for FREE. Visit http://theymos.com for more info.

Our math teacher grades REALLY hard. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this question, but there are only 3 questions on the assignment, so if I get one wrong that's automatically a 66%. I know this sounds really stupid, but can you guys check to make sure I'm right on this problem?
In an experiment, the probability of picking a red cube out of a bag is 1. Which of the following describes a probability of 1?
Certain
Likely
Not likely
Impossible
I think the answer is either certain or likely, which one do you think is right? Thank you.
Certain. 1 is short for 1/1, so for every 1 random draw, one red cube is chosen, and no cubes of any other color(the bag is full of only red cubes.
When they say just one number, it is short for that number over one. So a probably of .5 would be .5/1(2 random draws=1 more red cube and one of a different color).

Ok well I want to delete this picture but when I click delete something pops up that says:
Cannot delete: It is being used by anotherperson or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and try again.
Well nothing was even opened and it still wouldn't delete. It's really annoying me and I tried it a couple more times and the same thing happened. help?
Download killbox:
http://killbox.net
Run killbox.exe, drag the file you want to delete to the input box in killbox(or click the picture of a folder next to the input box). Click the radio button next to "delete on reboot". Click the red X next to the input box, click no, and you're done. The file will be deleted when you next reboot(you don't have to reboot now if you don't want to).
