graphic creator tools...

Post by **wardrich** » Wed Feb 26, 2003 9:59 pm

Hey, I'm looking for a free cursor creator and a free graphic creator program that will let me insert transparent background images.

oh ya... i had artcursors, but it's free time expired so it won't work on my computer anymore.

Thx
Richard

I have a shareware version of Axialis Icons and Axialis Cursor and I find them both very good. When the time runs out, I just clean install the OS to get me back to square 1. As for graphics...I use Paint Shop Pro versions 5 and 7. I just alternate between the two so the 30 day counter is reset. Come to think of it...most of the software I use is shareware. BTW...the cd-roms that contain the programs came in a showbag.

you can get rid of expiry dates through regestry.

Hmmm...I tried looking in the reg. but I couldn't find anything that resembles expiry dates. Do ya know where it could be? Even when I uninstall and re-install...the 30 day counter is still intact.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> (Name of Company or Software) -> (look for somthing like "stamp")

Well, usually i use MSPaint. But those are for the funny pictures i made. I could use my PSP7, but i found that i rarely use(which took forever to get). I might start using this program by Arc Soft. It has some other program, but one neat one is called PhotoStudio.

I just use MSpaint and a bmp -> gif/jpeg converter.

i used paint to make manwich (which i dont think will be continued due to my limit of time

) oh well. Paint (or at least the newer versions of it) can convert bmp to gif/jpg

Thats the odd thing...... Windows 98 seems to be able to do that, but my Windows ME version cant!

I think my MSPaint used to be able to convert stuff to jpeg(maybe im wrong) but it can't now. I may have deleted an important file when I was a newbie and resulted it in not being able to convert it to that. I have multiple programs so i may have to save it as one type, the open it in another program and save it as another.

I have a sig i made in the new program i got that I would like to show to you guys. Yet it says "(site) moderator" were acutally the word site is not site in the sig, but the actual word is the name of the site. I was wondering if it was ok to post the picture. It doesn't have the url, but it has "(name of site) moderator"(the reason why I asked i b/c its an emulation/rom site)

I think that if you dont post the URL, you can. But I could and probably am wrong, so it may be easier not to try.

It doesn't have the url, just the words "emureactor forums".

How about i post it, and if its not ok, the mods or i can delete it. But i don't think its a big deal b/c its just the name.

I, myself don't see it as a problem, but another moderator may see it another way.

Post by **wardrich** » Sat Apr 12, 2003 3:19 pm

maybe if ya linked it to the forum as opposed to the actual site.

Trentdaddy · Post by **Trentdaddy** » Sat Apr 12, 2003 4:17 pm

Maybe i will. But the Free 4 all section is kinda hectic. All these folk who are spamming it with "whats your favorite XXXXX?"(xxxxxx many any noun basically) or " this vg system or person vs. that vg system or person", and "how evil are you?" and BS like that.

Us mods there are probably going to start banning people there if they don't get their act together.

I don't see why you would not be able to put the URL in your sig ... I used to do it all the time.

Post by **wardrich** » Mon Apr 14, 2003 9:56 am

its because of the content on the site. Its an emulator/rom site *and a fairly good one too*

The real question is if i can link it to the forum. It is just a forum, but its a forum of a emulator/rom site.

Well if it's not hosted on the main site it might be ok ... but your forum is probably riddled with emu links ... l I don't know what Dosgames.com's policy is on sites that are only linked to illegal sites ... but this of course is if your forum is hosted elsewhere.

I'd suspect the answer would be no.
