C'mon, we normally wait at least a YEAR before digging up the old
classics!

Ach, I knew that'd happen. :-)

classics! ;-)
Nick is there anyway to do a global search for a string on all of IFIS chat
?
Or is this one of the items on "Things to do" list ?

If any of the younge members have got some time on their hands ploughing
through the chat archives are always a good laugh....

How wonderful opera would be if there were no singers.

How about a list of the silly quiz/name web sites that we've mentioned over
time ? Or is this one of the things I've not found on the site ?

Ummm... basically nobody, including me, has bothered to make one. If you
feel like collecting a few together yourself, you're welcome to send 'em
to me and I'll gladly stick 'em on the site.

I'm more than happy to accept almost ANY semi-relevent stuff from
members for the website, but it's difficult to make members realise THIS
MEANS YOU! It's YOUR website! I "just" look after it.

That said... YET ANOTHER thing that's on the "to do" list is a bit of
magic that will grab URLs that get mentionned on the mailing-lists, work
out a sensible title for them, and stick them on the (/a) "links" page.
Fairly easy to do, not quite so easy to do NICELY.

You may all remember the "IFIS web site redesign survey" thingy I did,
erm, quite some time ago. I *AM* in the process of redesigning the site,
and quite a few people's suggestions will be in the next version. If
anyone has had any more fantastic ideas since the survey, though, it's
not too late - let me know, and I'll see what I can do!

Remember, it's supposed to be a website FOR the members, but also BY the
members, so if anyone has any ideas, content, artwork, or anything that
they think ought to be on the site, let me know anytime!

Whilst on the subject... you may all remember another "cool link" that
was posted to this list... one that would let you choose various heads,
bodies, hairstyles, bits of clothing, jewelry, etc, to build up an
"avatar"...

I'm quite interested in doing something like this for the IFIS site, for
reasons that will become clear later, mostly just to put a face next to
lots of things on the site to show you who contributed them. For various
reasons including (but not limited to) cost and copyright, I'm NOT going
to use the one above though.

Are any IFIS members suitably artistic enough to create a load of bits
of "identikit" for me? I can do the required programming no problem, but
I'm really not artistic enough to draw harstyles, eyes, noses, mouths,
beards, jewelry, etc etc. If you think you'd be capable of doing this,
and could send me a load of GIFs or something, let me know. Probably
best to let me know BEFORE you do the drawing, so if I get more than 1
volunteer (yeah, right!), I can get you to collaberate rather than
compete :-)
