No icons with improved shininess?

dead, no longer

In reply to this comment by Payback:
Yeah... well it's still dead.

Oops. Yeah, BBMaps keeps data locally. AT&T blocks BBMaps because it competes with their AT&T Navigator program which is $10/month. There's ways to get BBMaps on AT&T anyway but I haven't bothered because I rarely have any real need for it.

About the maps on your Bold.

That's really weird. I have almost 1MB cached at the moment, seems permanently.

Are you running stock storage? I have a 2 GB card. Maybe that has something to do with it, or at least where you store your cache.

Oh shit, I just noticed we're talking apples and oranges. I'm using Blackberry maps. Sorry.

Good point. I didn't give that much thought.

No, that will never be a consideration because it would leave everyone vulnerable to attack.

I seem to be finding more and more javascript-based embeds from the small sites, particularly MMA videos that I'm trying to sift or resurrect. Any chance VS will allow them in the future?

I wasn't entirely positive on all of them. I just scrolled through the user list and picked out some big names that I knew were generally liked. Well, except from karaidl... he's my hero.

Very nice of you to mention this. James Roe isn't completely inactive, as far as I know, and edeot is on active service in Iraq since beginning of summer, so I hope he'll be back in some months' time.

You realize you can invoke dupeof on that, right? I would not have discarded it otherwise.

grazie!

Got another problem report for ya here: http://geek.videosift.com/talk/An-internal-server-error-occurred-Please-try-again-later-1

Also, I posted the embed code you asked for the other day.

Your attention please, sir...

A small observation that you might be able to fix in 4.1...

At the bottom of the page where it lists who upvoted the video you're currently looking at, sometimes a username will be on the far right with their star/gem/crown wrapped to the beginning of the next line.

Pretty sure you can wrap each name & icon in a span and specify no wrapping in CSS.

Ok, but you have to buy me dinner first.

this is exactly what i was about to say.
lets kiss.

This was just me being a smart-ass initially, but further investigation shows it might actually be noteworthy. Start here:

Then continue to lucky's response below and my response after that.

I'd hate to see your design career ruined by this.

I might be telling you something you already know here...

I just did a fresh install of WinXP and found that the star VS uses to indicate an applauded comment is not part of the default fonts. I had to install Arabic and Far East language support (presumably I only needed one of them to get the right font, but I just did both) for the star to show up.

I was just trying out the Firefox 3.1 beta and found an oddity.

A little digging revealed that the image (http://i33.tinypic.com/2mx4j9j.jpg) is actually a png, which seems to be the root of this problem. Up until now I thought tinypic actually converted uploads to jpeg, but apparently they just rename them .jpg and hope nobody notices.

I'm still tinkering as I write this... The picture of mine above is also a png which it has renamed a jpeg. I see that I can change the extension back to png and it still works fine but when I try it with your image, it's still yellow.

Think you might need a different image host in the future.
