The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
Ok, so I did some work for Tom Calahan, a member of these forums and owner of www.viewandplay.co.uk the thread is here and I’d like some of you to read it:
http://ukchatforums.reserve.co.uk/ display_messages.php?threadid=29919 &forumid=206 [DELETE THE SPACES!!]
What it said in the first post was:
“All you need to do is design a logo that fits in with the rest of the place. Flash5 and anything else can be used, just TRY and keep it's size down a bit as the page will take forever to load.”
So I designed my logo, and won. Tom then said:
I think Andi's logo already feels like it's at home. Nice one dude. Like I said with Rob, whoever wins I'll give you a DVD up to £20 outta me own money.
(http://ukchatforums.reserve.co.uk/ display_messages.php?forumid=206&threadid=29919 &offset=20¤tsort=desc) [DELETE THE SPACES!!]
Now I receive this e-mail from him:
The logo didn't meet the required specifications as after much thought, we came to the conclusion that it was 1mm too wide therefore, invalid. Please kindly take your logo and firmly lodge it up your ar*e.
So, what do you vote I do? I’m in the process of posting this on all the forums I know he uses, and I’ll e-mail a copy to SR. I’m also currently writing an e-mail to his hosts to see if they’ll do anything, for I don’t like to be messed around..
Oh and Tom, I have numerous screenshots to prove your site used my logo, so don’t get any bright ideas.

Nothing... From the browser go> Tools> Internet options> Connections> Lan Settings> Adns make sure all of the boxes are unchecked.
If this works, you'll have unrestricted access. Nothing gets affected by it, and I doubt they'll even track it especially as here our proxy log for 500 users generates a text file over 4GB in size and noone has found a computer yet that can open it!:-)
If it does work, all you have to do afterwards is recheck the box you unchecked, if any...

I've been looking through it thismorning oodly enough...
>Also, that Websense program is damn annoying, just got it at college, can't do anything, can't search for music becuase it more than likely has 'gun' 'drugs' or 'death' on the page, felt like eating the monitor but I wasn't hungry.
We have WebSesse here, but... You didn't hear this from me, but you can by pass the proxy server through the IE options (just turn off Proxy and Auto detect). If that doesn't work, then the firewall is forcing you to go through the Proxy. Woking on Websense cracks as we speak!! Unilke the rest of the comapany SlaveUnit and I have unrestricted Access (for now anyway!!)

It's only down untill he coughs up that DVD...
> Just thinking if I decide to make another website I won't tell you about it Tyla :p
That's fine by me. I'll add it to the list of the other 82million+ websites out there that aren't worth looking at!;-)
