Something's odd

Post by David Bryant »

Hi, Ruud!

I like the rsstroom reader. It's cute.

This is odd, though. When I view this page using Linux the image comes up fine. But when I view it in Windows the
link to the image doesn't get resolved. I don't even get a broken graphic indicator.

I looked at the html source for the page, and it looks good. Not sure you'll even care, but could it be an issue for
the phpBB folks? dcb

Thanks for the info, David.

Cute? I was ROFLMAO.

I use 3 different browsers with Windows XP: IE, Firefox & Opera. They all show the image.

I do get similar problems (as you described) with imageshack links from time to time, so it may be a problem at their site.

me i was rolling around on the floor laughing too.

Do I credit you to associating this particular ad, or parody with our
favourite passtime? or did somebody before you make the
connection?

In any case, thank you.

I'm interested in Texas Jigsaw Killer. How can I find the first three? Your information will be appreciated.

Hi,

I changed the page, so it now contains a hyperlink to all images of previous puzzles.

There was an error that showed the image of killer 003 in stead of 004. That has now been corrected, so you still need 001, 002 and 004.

cheers,
Ruud.

I just ran the Google search, out of curiosity, and got 621,000 hits -- over 12 times as many, just five months later. dcb
