SkyIslandHiker · 22-02-2005

Greetings Everybody!

Been lurking here for quite some time; finally decided to register and become a member of this fine forum!

I must say that I am quite impressed with the knowledge and useful information I have been finding here. Hope to learn more and help others too!

jimhocsea · 22-02-2005

I am from Ohio. Sub 40 but counting down the days until......

Been crazy about tech since my first TRS-80 back in the early '80.

CDFreaks is great but I rarely get to post because you all are so on top of it.
Half the post would be unneeded if they would just search first and ask questions after but you answer them anyway....again and again....which is just really cool.

Back on topic - have 3 great kids and a crazy wife (but not much longer)

I work for social justice (which pays really well....not) and it can not get much worse here in the States for that kinda thing. Back to construction for awhile.

*Namoh* · 23-02-2005

Great to see we have a lot new members.

To all new members: WELCOME to CDFreaks.

A special welcome for all the women, because we don't have much around here, but the amount is getting bigger and bigger.

I hope everybody will learn alot and contribute alot.

Please don't ask questions in this thread, because they (probably) won't be answered here.

First use the search function, if that doens't give you the solution, post your question in the appropriate forum.

Visit The Livingroom, here you'll find and can start threads about anything you like.
There are also a lot of "fun" threads that you can join but also some serious ones.

For the Dutch visitors we have our own forums: De Woonkamer and Algemeen, hardware en software .

We also have a special forum for German and Italian visitors.

Hope you all enjoy CDFreaks and that you'll spend a lot time overhere.

Have fun.

Hi

Glad to see you welcoming us ladeeez into your house of freak, anyway I've been hanging out for a while digesting all your knowledge and now I just want to say hi and thank you for providing such a FANTASTIC forum!

I have learned LOADS!!!

Baron Saturday · 23-02-2005

...Hello all. I'm the newbiest of all the newbies. If the less you know about computers and, in my case, burning/ripping CDs, makes you more of a newbie, then I guess I may be KING Newbie! (shoulda been my online handle

!). I have some questions to post in the newbie section, but thought I'd drop a hello here first. Please be gentle with this lowly newbie

. Peace all.

Xyrium · 24-02-2005

Doesn't anyone like CDs anymore?

I love my Milwaukee cordless drill.

audscott · 25-02-2005

Been lurking for several months...I've enjoyed flashing (

Hi, cgkerns. Didn't quite work... Did you insert an "http" URL between the tags indicating where the image is stored?

For example... Here's a pic I have on a webserver:
In order to get this to appear on cdfreaks, I first click on the yellow "insert image" icon above the composing window:
Then, a text box appears:
Inside this text box, I type the URL where my image is located. In this case, I typed "http://www.banchy.net/misc/cdfreaks/20050226/dvd_logo.gif" (minus the quotes).
You can also upload an image directly to cdfreaks by clicking on the "Manage Attachments" button in the 'Additional Options' window:

While it's fine to simply upload your images to cdfreaks using the "Manage Attachments" link, it's generally best to free up disk space at cdfreaks and try and post your images to your own webserver. That is the option I've primarily outlined above. Go to http://www.webhosts4free.com/search.php. That is a place where you can find free sites that will allow you to upload images. See the original post from a cdfreaks moderator here.

Good luck...and welcome!

binghamv · 26-02-2005

Hi
I am Veronica. I'm a 31 yr old mother of three. I graduated this past December with a BS in Psychology.

I am proficient with computer hardware, but sometimes the software has me stumped. I have been looking for a site like this for quite a while as my children like computer gaming but have missed out on the fine points of cd maintenance/care. I generally like to backup all games as I purchase them. The kids are allowed to play the backups, so if one gets broke I'm only out a few cents rather than the steep price of a whole new game. However as they get older, it is becoming tougher to do as many won't let you make back up copies easily.

br1ce · 27-02-2005

Hello Veronica nice to meet you. And I'm also new but don't have the credentials she has heh... Not much to say about me but that I'm definitley not a tech freak/savy

But happy to be here and hopefully learn a thing or two during my stay.
Thanks for having me aboard!
brice/24/m/ny
OH and no kids but I love them

Take care.

ack_thbbft · 02-03-2005

Hello all,

I hope this forum has what I'm looking for, because as it stands, I'm a total newb and stumped!

I've done a few CD's in the past, and now I'm trying to transfer my TiVo recordings to my computer for editing and burning to DVD. (The TiVo Community board isn't much help.)

I'm using Nero 6.6 Ultra (I think, since the Nero website does not make things easy to figure out what you have and how to upgrade) and an NEC ND-3520A DVD+/-R/RW DL burner.

Looking forward to seeing what this community has to offer, and hope to become an expert someday!

mindwarper · 02-03-2005

Hello everybody

I am new here

I have been browsing this forum for some information now since a long time now, and now I decided to join in hehehe

It is mainly due the fact that I just bouight myself a new DVD-writer, namely BenQ DW1620

Now I wanted to get some information about it and be able to discuss it with the other members here

Grtzzz

eng · 02-03-2005
