I'd like to hear some opinions.

[QUOTE=Maccabee;22031573]Didn't get any critique on these. I'd like to hear some opinions.[/QUOTE] I find it slightly hard to read right now, lower the spacing between the letters and it will be much better, really good concept though.

What do you guys generally use as PHP editors?

[QUOTE=nullsquared;22031902]What do you guys generally use as PHP editors?[/QUOTE] Same thing for everything else. I use textmate.

[QUOTE=nullsquared;22031902]What do you guys generally use as PHP editors?[/QUOTE]Notepad++, PhpED, or Dreamweaver. I'm loving Dreamweaver right now though. The code editor is amazing.

I'm gonna go with Netbeans for now. [editline]08:04PM[/editline] However, I have many votes for Dreamweaver, too.

[QUOTE=nullsquared;22031364](about this: what do you guys think of using PayPal's payment API? Less work on me, more secure for the customers.)[/QUOTE] Yes, use it. There's no reason to use anything else for what you're looking to do.

[QUOTE=nullsquared;22031902]What do you guys generally use as PHP editors?[/QUOTE] On windows, linux, or OSX? On windows I use Submlimetext, on OSX I use Coda.

[QUOTE=KmartSqrl;22033118]Yes, use it. There's no reason to use anything else for what you're looking to do.[/QUOTE] Excellent; that's exactly what I planned on doing. [editline]09:11PM[/editline] [QUOTE=compwhizii;22033739]On windows, linux, or OSX? On windows I use Submlimetext, on OSX I use Coda.[/QUOTE] Windows. Netbeans seems nice for now.

[QUOTE=cosmic duck;22030472]I've been recoding the Muxdos Tape page layout from scratch. What do you guys like better? Keep in mind the [url=http://muxdos.com/test.html]styling of Muxdos[/url]. The old style - [url]http://muxdos.com/tapenew.html[/url] The new style - [url]http://muxdos.com/tapenewnew.html[/url][/QUOTE] Enjoying the new style ^^. Can't wait to see it in action :D

[QUOTE=andersonmat42;22028000]Turb, you always advicate that we don't use PHP but I've seen more down time and errors on your websites than any of mine that use PHP.[/QUOTE] The main AnyHub server hasn't been down for ages. It was the mirror which went down today because a) it's new and b) I screwed up the configuration [editline]05:35PM[/editline] Also, none of the sites I deployed on under IIS/.NET on my old Windows VPS ever went down. [editline]05:38PM[/editline] Also, when I was working on the new AnyHub I said that when it was done, I'd post the source to the old PHP version. Here it is: [url]http://anyhub.net/file/crappy-php-codebase.rar[/url] I'll pre-empt you guys on what I know you're going to say about the quality of that code: [b]Shutup[/b]

It looks cleaner and more proportioned than the old one, in my opinion. [editline]09:53AM[/editline] The scaling is a bit disturbing though, not sure the font have to be that big.

Maybe try a mix between the two, adding the new bar from the 2nd one to the 1st and making the username slightly smaller.

[QUOTE=turb_;22038285] I'll pre-empt you guys on what I know you're going to say about the quality of that code: [b]Shutup[/b][/QUOTE] Okay, just because it doesn't look great doesn't mean that PHP is bad. I can write clean and proper code in PHP that works well. Just because the majority of people suck at it doesn't mean it's bad.

Just because the majority of people suck at it doesn't mean it's bad.[/QUOTE] It's not that PHP is bad per se, but if you'd try running the same PHP script (preferably something that takes long) and try running that on ASP.NET (with Phalanger for example) you should see which is quicker.

[QUOTE=nullsquared;22031364]After some research, I'm going with php for now. [/QUOTE] Did you ever consider something like Python?

Anything compiled is going to be faster than a language that's parsed before being run.

I love turb's passionate, yet kind of stupid, hate for PHP. It amazes me watching him fight over ASP .NET.

[QUOTE=Crhem van der B;22042083]I love turb's passionate, yet kind of stupid, hate for PHP. It amazes me watching him fight over ASP .NET.[/QUOTE] I use PHP and I like it. I mean sure the language is kind of a mess but it's easy and it works great which is pretty much what I care about. ASP.NET may have incredible features and it may even be able to cook my breakfast but if it's unstable and crashes all the time (I don't care what platform you're on, PHP is stable cross-platform) then I guess it's really not that great. Bottom line is, if it does what you want and it does it well, use it. Which is why I'm sticking with PHP. That and I like the ability to be able to open Notepad++ and just start writing code, not having to use some fancy IDE, in a fashion that probably works great for large projects, but for anything that isn't huge is just bloated.

[QUOTE=Tuntis;22041639]Did you ever consider something like Python?[/QUOTE] No; what does Python offer over PHP? All I know is that my friend can offer me free hosting with PHP support, my friend can help me if I have PHP problems, and PHP is extremely easy to use for practically anything, such as database interaction.

I see the VPS is going nicely now turb_ cheers for clearing up the load issue too :)

Guess what google showcased today!? [url]http://code.google.com/webfonts[/url] Custom fonts have never been easier. yay [editline]09:48PM[/editline] Obviously they will be adding a ton more in the coming months and years!

Does anyone know why Firefox always shows the original font before converting to the font-face, like on every refresh.

i believe it has to load the font file first

[QUOTE=jaybuz;22049065]Does anyone know why Firefox always shows the original font before converting to the font-face, like on every refresh.[/QUOTE] Because it's slow? Only reason I can think of.

You're comparing apples to chairs.
