Helping Mr Elric.

I'd like to ask you to help support a very strong and brave child who has recently been diagnosed with brain cancer. There are many ways in which you can help Elric. Please visit his website to find out how.

I apologise for being abrupt but I'm not quite sure what to say other than please help him and his family during this hard time.

Looking For Photographs

I'm learning a new trick in Poser, well not so new for Poser but new for me. I'm learning how to use the Face room and I'd like some photographs to help me use this fantastic function!

The photographs should be headshots, straight on and side profile with as much hair moved off the face as possible.

I know this is probably a long shot but there is absolutely no harm in asking right? lol

Anyway if you'd like to aid my learning, please send photographs to ehkho[at]inbox[dot]com.


Thank you!

TTFN

My mojo has been crushed.

I'm sorry but I need to take a vacation from creating. After a lot of thought, weighing up pros/cons etc and then being completely anal. I discovered that the amount of snipers and those that can't even be bothered to say a simple thank you outnumber those that have their manners intact. So for this and a few other reasons, I'm taking a break from creating and sharing.

See ya.

Have Something To Spout?

Ya know little miss nice has lost her patience and left the building.

Anonymous comments have now been switched off, if you have something to say have the balls to put your name to it.

I've never came across such rude, ignorant or arrogant people in my whole online life and I've been here since '06.

Get a grip, get a life, get something but for crying out loud keep your mouth shut if you have nothing nice to say!

To avoid extraction errors you must have all zips saved to the same location and only click to extract the first part as the archive was split into parts during the compression process.

I Despise Microsoft!

Feel free to flame but send it to Microsoft instead please lol

Windows done an update while I was zipping the frames and it appeared to reset all of my installed program's preferences to default values. In the case of jZip, it changed compression method from "Deflate, Ultra" to "bzip2, Store". It also removed all my preferences from PS, Poser, Bryce and Open Office.

I'm not a happy camper!

Anyway, I've re-zipped the frames and they'll be uploaded as soon as possible. My apologies for the delay but our net crapped out this morning.

As well as updating all the previous posts links, I'll also stick them in my actual LIABB Scrapkit post which will be published late on Saturday night (GMT).

The whole situation has put me in somewhat of a downer, so if you know a good deal on a Mac, let me know? lol *curses Linux not playing nicely with my software hrmph!

I have to go and start making dinner and preparing party food for my ickle Pixie's birthday party as she'll be 2 tomorrow.

The links on previous posts will be updated sometime in the next 24-48hrs.

Extracting Zips That Are Seperated Into Parts

I never realised that a lot of people did not know how to extract zips that have been split up into parts. I apologise for the inconvenience, allow me to explain why I do so and then I'll give some tips on how to overcome errors.

Manually selecting files to ensure they have approximately the same file size is time consuming & extremely tedious and ensures I lose the will to create very quickly. Which is why I use jZip. jZip supports many different file formats and compression methods, plus it's free to use. I highly recommend using this nifty piece of software as it is far more advanced than the extraction tool that comes with Windows XP and above.

Unfortunately, the extraction tool bundled with Windows will not extract split archives. I have no idea why it doesn't support it because the technology was there before XP was released. I guess that's just Microsoft for you, useful as a chocolate teapot.

I am really sorry for the problems my zips are causing but I either continue how I am or I just stop. I don't mean to sound brash but I'd rather spend my time creating than zipping.

Anyway, try jZip. I can assure that it compresses and extracts a lot faster than WinRAR, WinZIP or Windows Extraction Tool, it is not as memory intensive or hogs as much disk space either.

When you download my scraps, unless it's tagger size it is most likely to be split into parts. Do not rename them and try to extract individually, all you'll acheive is corrupting the files.

All parts should be downloaded to the same location, once they all are then using jZip or any other extraction tool that supports parts, only click to extract the first and the rest will follow suit automatically.

I do hope this helps to fix any issues that have cropped up.
