But that would simply be a colspan of 90% in any case. *shrug* I'm a huge fan of keeping the programs on a page as simple as possible. I detest CSS for that reason, since one small error can ruin not just one page but an entire site. Having screens the size as most folks do these days means that most pages are big enough to start. I wouldn't worry about that.
To me though it just isn't worth opening internet exploder for pretty much any reason. If I have to access a government page because some guy didn't do the programming correctly for other browsers, okay maybe. But it is such a simple paper wall to punch through for security reasons, that I avoid it at all costs otherwise. I'm pretty sure that others do this too, for the same reasons.
The thing is there used to be the 'noframes' content that people were encouraged for folks who didn't have browsers which could even support THEM. I don't know if java has a 'no java' option... If it does that'd be good, maybe just display options on the side anyway? I don't know how the code works at all, I'm not a big java fan except for in the background of a page, not the actual function of viewing one.

@Shard: I have -no- idea how to do CSS. XD Any CSS on my site is the result of Dreamweaver.
What confuses me is that we run explorer even if we're offline (for example, to open folders and stuff- explorer.exe )
I could redesign the site so each page has the urls on the top and bottom, but that seems so counterproductive (ie: everyone being used to it on the left) that I'll probably stick to the left-hand frame thing. It will be a bit easier to manage that way, since I don't have to copy-paste the navigation code on every single page I make. XD

Actually no, Windows explorer is *entirely* different from the browser Internet Explorer. They're executed in different ways.
*hugs dreamweaver* I *can* program frames, but most of my stuff is also dreamweaver-done.

Hey, StarFyre.

Name: Rieno (pronounced the same as Reno, but spelled in the terigon-naming language)
Gender: Male
Species: Terigon
Height: 5'10"
Abilities: Telepathy. Teleportation. Verbal Speech.
Turning terigon into humanoid characters is fuuuuuuuuun. X3 I hope you like him! I sure do. <3

Kyee. I watched Advent Children, myself, the whole time I was drawing/coloring him. X3 (Yay for having two computer monitors!) I love making charigon. XD The exchange dice need to send them my way more often. Glad you like! <3

Rieno: Feh! *pryprypry* If I die, I'm gunna haunt you the rest a yer life, yo! *ppppppprrrrrrryyyy, muttering under his breath about stupid creators and people in general and Aki in particular*
Advent Children is teh win. I'm guilty of watching it a lot lately, on top of playing Dirge of Cerebus, but there can never be enough Advent Children in my life.

Pheonix!
Here's the mage. I did my best and sorry it took so long. As always, stats are up to you.
~ABOUT YOU~
Username: Phoenix
E-mail: thexenoqueen@gmail.com
~ABOUT THE IMAGE~
Color(s): See ref images
Features: Blond hair, theme-applicable features
Species: Any
Element(s): None
Theme: Quest For Glory Fighter, Magic User, or Thief
Lately I've been having a lot of fun replaying an old game series called Quest For Glory, and for lack of any other inspiration or character need, I figured I might as well make an exchange request of it!
My request is that you pick one of the three given character types and make a creature to fit it. Quest For Glory is all about being a hero (well, with many exceptions made for the Thief) so the creature should be designed to excel at its chosen profession!
For color-scheme ideas, I'm including screenshots from the first four of the five games. (The fifth game doesn't have an overall "uniform" look for the characters.) Admittedly they can be rather garish, but I'd like the creature's colors to reflect the look of one of the games. Nostalgia and all that! This doesn't mean the creature needs to be bipedal and/or clothed! You can do that if you want, certainly, but all I'm really after are the colors and blond hair.

Squeeeeeeeee! <3 <3 <3 <3 He's spiffy! :D :D Heh, that makes him the only one (so far) who isn't bipedal...I wonder if he gets conned into playing mount for the others! XD XD XD It makes perfect sense that he'd be the mage, though...no hands! Plotfodderyay. X3
Love the adaptation of the colors into his markings. X3 Thankee so much! I loves him. :D

SHARD.
I figured it was time I finally got off the blacklist for this. Only to be on the blacklist for another infiniti months next time I can't draw an image >_< Yeah ... sorry about that.
Anyway you requested a superhero dragon way back in I think July ... I'm really, really sorry for putting it off this long. anyway this is a Centuran, I think male but you can choose the gender, who accidentally came in contact with some radiation. But instead of dying he became a super radioactive Centuran. His powers include manipulation of weird radioactive lightning, flying without wings, and the usual centuran abilities (verbal speech and telepathy ... yay normal centurans). Hope you like, anyway!

o.0 Woah! That's awesome... And now ... I have to pull myself off that blacklist too. somehow.
I'll definitely alert you where he goes, any sort of names or naming traits they have? I'll have to design a kind of (lol) secret ID for him. Somehow. *drops a lead lined cloth over him to dampen the obvious green glow* Yeah, our friend he's kinda ... well, he's probably not infectious any more, but still, you might wanna keep your distance.

Centurans are more humanoid than draconic, so any name that you'd give to a humanoid will do. Culturally their language tends to be quite vowel-heavy, so that might be something to keep in mind when coming up with a name. And I assumed the glowingness was something he could turn on and off, though he might have trouble controlling it at first. Glad you like him ^_^
Oh and if you want a JPEG let me know as well as what background color. Because of the glowing, it would look awful as a GIF

Oh no, png's fine with me. Looks great, actually, I'm gonna see how good it looks on a black background.

And now time to get my name off of the blacklist at last, DNS.
Name: you decide
Gender: you decide, but it says male to me
As for abilities, I'll leave most of it up to you but I've had a few thoughtbunnies. He has five eyes in total, four normal-seeing ones and the fifth situated in the center of his forehead which he can use to see into the future. It will change colors randomly as he's using it (or maybe you can think of a pattern or summat), and he can also project what he is seeing into the minds of others if he wants.
You don't have to use that, you can change it as you see fit. I'm sorry for taking so long, it took me a while to sketch something I liked and then school finally caught up with me so it kept getting pushed to the side. D: I hope you like him!
As a side note, is there any other way of making a hand drawn and colored image transparent without doing it by hand? I've been using a 10 pixel wide brush to color the background a different color then do background erase and, as my hand is not steady, it mangles the line art. T_T Not to mention it takes forever.

If you can just increase your wand tool's tolerance high enough to catch all the pixels on the background and delete to your chosen color. Any spare pixels will show up nicely, and you can just erase them to that same color (I often simply invert my selection and find the little tiny marquee lines to zap those pixels).

Omg. omgopmgomgomg. I didn't see that, kayla, until just now. I have no idea how i missed it. omg. -clings- thankyou.
I adore him. He's so AWESOME LOOKING. and I love things with too many eyes. -cuddlesonhim- he looks so creepy, and so charming! -nibbles on his nose- I love him!
The eye thing is just what was thinking-- the third-eye'd characters I typically make have that sort of thing, though sometimes the eye sees magic or intentions rather than the future. the future is cool. hessocool. -clingnuzzle- thankyouthankyouthankyou.
I love that he's hand-coloured too, it makes me glee. Extra kudos cuz you made it transparent flawlessly. I would have nopatience for that. XP As for isolating such hand-drawn things-- I have no idea. X.x I usually just add a background or something. :3 but still. -huggles- gleegleeglee@ thankyou.
