Anyone might notice two similar walls on the site today. One of them mine the other blockheads. This was an experiment in "interpretation" that ended up similar in the end.. it also shows my ugly mug if u look hard enough. The lamest picture ever taken of me courtesy of an exgf.

Thanks, all. I had gotten hits for MySQL and gone to their site before...it looked too intimidating...sounded like something for web developers or something. Now I know...& I will not be intimidated! ;P

ZenLC beat me too it. I suspect that MySQL - free, open source - is what you're after.

Darn it, I had a question as well! =P Not bb-related, but I figured this was as good a place as any to ask: Does anyone know of a good, powerful, *free* database program? I remember back in the day of Atari computers etc. that databases were part of the tryptych of computer software: database, spreadsheet, and wordprocessor. But I can't seem to find a good database program for Windows. Something where you can search fields, get a certain # of results, etc. Is there one hidden away in MS Office somewhere? Any help is appreciated. Thanks! And my apogies if my ignorance is showing...

Heya guys // got a question for you's Blackbox - is it possible to make a plugin that allows graphics to be used in the styles, just a simply over lay on the menu and taskbar?? Am sure one of you's could create it!

I really need to go back and redo some of the styles from when I first started.

Wow holy crap, all this still exists. I haven't been on this site in forever. I'm glad to see blackbox, and all the other *box window managers and styles and stuff are still out there. So cool. Hi everyone!

Yknow, i found it really amusing to see the 32 bit version working on 98SE. i also find it just as hilarious that this still runs even on windows 11 machines.
