"Law 35- You got to go with what works." - Robin Lefler Wiggum:"You have that much faith in me, Homer?" Homer:"No! Faith is what you have in things that don't exist. Your awesomeness is real." “I was thinking that perhaps this thing called God does not exist. Because He cannot save any one of us. No matter how we pray, He doesn’t mend our wounds. No matter how we plead, He doesn’t strike down our enemies. There hasn’t been an instance where He has cured our sick. Powerless, we can only wait to be tossed onto the dirt of a foreign land. He doesn’t have a thread of spiritual existence. If only there were a shadow, a whisper. But I haven’t felt Him once.” — 稲荷家房之介 - Giglio

I've just been trying out this: http://www.sumopaint.com/home/Sumo Paint is an on-line paint program, so it doesn't need installing, and it works on any platform. You can shell out a bit of money and upgrade it if you want to, but the free version looks pretty good.

AX, from vulpeculox is a piece of freeware which gives you easy access to any special characters you set it up for. By altering a simple config file in Notepad, I've set mine up to give me àâä éèêë îï öô üû ðÞ ß and all their upper case equivalents, also °½¾¼ It runs at startup; although the process of setting it up to do so is pretty weird, you only have to do it once. It works via a fn key - I use f8. Once you've typed, say, an A in any application, pressing f8 cycles through AÀÂÄA until you get the one you're looking for. Similarly oöô°o, etc. (Those are the characters I've set mine up for, you might choose others.) Even if you don't write foreign languages, you can use it to get any character in the windows character map.

I confess to being a long-time Gnu/Linux user. Are there any other linux-people about? Just about all the software running on linux is free as in speech and free as in beer. You can copy it, share it, modify it, give it away and so on. People are usually comfortable with what they use now but I'm happy answer questions (if I can  ) and give a helping hand if anyone wants to give it a try. ciao, Attila

What do you need three browsers for..?  In all my ventures on the Internet, I've until this day managed with just one.

What do you need three browsers for..?  In all my ventures on the Internet, I've until this day managed with just one. I mainly use Firefox, It has an old fashioned menu bar. It has no script which makes it more secure but sometimes not fully functional, it allows exceptions which is usually OK but not always. Google bugged me with it's stupid preview crap, I have a Greasemonkey script that stops it and Scroogle helps too. Chrome is handy when a page doesn't work in Firefox, likely due to my mods, I use it for Google advanced and image searches, Imgur works better on Chrome. If you design a page you need to see it in various browsers. IE is like a spare tyre, I did have it open for some reason recently, not sure why. Firefox lets me arrange things in an acceptable way, IE probably would too but it has always had security issues, Chrome's minimalist layout doesn't appeal to me. In my view using only one browser would be an unnecessary compromise. This is my idea of what a browser should look like (but normally expanded to 1920 wide).

I'm on IE. Security issues FF-fans always seem to pull out of their hats (..! Cool! See what I did there? :-P ) are something I, for one, have never experienced. I'm not sure if it is directly related to me not searching for porn and free MP3s, but there it is. Never had my identity, credit card numbers or passwords stolen.
Everything I visit that is meant to work seems to work in IE too, and I has my favourites bar and my menu bar and my command bar and my drinking bar. What more do I need..?

I don't know if it has been fixed but FF had a massive problem with security due to the way it saved passwords. basically if anyone had FF open whilst using a public network they could get hacked super easy no matter what operating system. I did it to a friend when he was using my network with facebook just for a laugh and I know bugger all about hacking.
