t00fri??s files removed from Motherlode

Post #1by alphap1us » 10.09.2005, 17:14

Hi,
At Fridger??s request, I have removed all links to his files from the Motherlode. You??ll have to search for them somewhere else.

Cheers,
Joe

Indeed, several days ago, I accidentally discovered some unfortunate incident that was provoked by the Motherlode staff in relation to myself. It made me very unhappy. I have therfore decided to break all connections with them.

Please, do not inquire further.

You find all my textures previously linked at the ML (and more) at my original site (as always):

The rather popular 40000+ earth locations may be downloaded from here

Since we are not supposed to question what happened (though I could possibily think of some reasons) any further, why then did someone made a topic?

To let you know that you'll have to download Fridger's Celestia products from Shatters.

I still see the Brazilian hacking page at http : // www . shatters . net / ~t00fri / gallery . t00fri /. The source HTML reads:

Code: Select all

<html>
  <head>
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="pt-br">
 <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
 <meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
 <title>Simiens Crew</title>
 <bgsound src="http://www.metropolitanafm.com.br/web/modulos/playlist/wma/Usher_-_Yeah.wma" loop="-0">
 </head>

  <body bgcolor="#000000">
  <p align="center">
 <img border="0" src="http://www.setanet.com.br/img/root.jpg" width="252" height="466"></p>
  <p align="center"><font color="#808080">Enquanto houver fome e guerra simiens
 existira!</font></p>


Yes, the </body> and </html> tags are missing. Very W3C non-compliant!!!

Unless one disables off-site graphics in one's browser, viewing this page will pull a JPEG from www . setanet . com . br, possibly it's there as a tripwire to tell them whenever someone sees their handiwork. Same for the audio clip.

Any chance of restoring this page?

Spiff,

the hacked page locks only the entrance to my image gallery, not to the TextureFoundry download archive! This is fully functional.

Since Chris is sort of busy otherwise, I am afraid this "Hacker art" must be given preference over my beautiful Celestia images ;-) for a while.

Bye Fridger

Yes, I saw the textures are still reachable, but I fancied looking at your gallery too. Thought I'd point it out in case it remained unnoticed. Ah well...

What's wrong with this page?
Simple, effective, I like it...
Need just some tiny adjustement, nothing serious...
...perhaps the logo of Celestia ring need to be redesign...

The code looks handwritten to me. It has a few errors, but is simple and uncluttered, so it is not "bad"...

If you wrote it yourself, you don??t need help with css; css is much simpler, and the syntax more predictable, than HTML. Lookup a tutorial on the net - there are many; you??ll be writing it in a couple of hours.

Example:
Start of your main table:
<table BORDER=0 CELLPADDING=10 WIDTH="780" BACKGROUND="newtitle.jpg" >

Same thing, with css values instead:
<table BORDER=0 style="padding:10px;width:780px;background-image:url(newtitle.jpg);background-repeat:no-repeat;">


Same thing, with the css in a separate style sheet:
<style type="text/css">
. somename
{
padding:10px;
width:780px;
background-image:url(newtitle.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
</style>

... And the table code:
<table BORDER=0 class="somename">


... As you can see, just a very formalized english. The nice thing is that the tags have names you can guess, so trial-and-error is much faster and more fun than regular html... And any layout you can think of is much, much easier to build; the tools are sharper...
