Hi Keith,

No I had not thought of it in that way but have fun with it.

I chose my new avatar because to me the Oroborus is a very salient symbol for our common pursuit.

-Scott

P.S. I just (finally) finished upgrading and migrating the site to newer hardware. Hopefully we will see some performance improvement. At least I will have more peace of mind. Please let me know if you encounter any problems.

Hey all, sorry for the image upload problem. I had a wrong folder permission on the new server machine. Please let me know if you find any more problems.

Thanks,

Scott, I thank you for yor help. I had forgotten about the change. Now this advice: when thinking of a wheel working, think of an overshot water wheel. once this is achieved ,all else is duck soup. j kelly

Hi Scott,
I think it was Sevich who recommended I visit your forum.
And yep.posted my project that has been over a decade in development.
If I ever seem a little B&%hy, it's because poor engineering frustrates me.
It might not be possible, but a poor design doesn't help.

Having placed P-motion and Jim_L (one and the same) on my ignore list has freed up my time to learn a little about web sites.

I am pleased to announce that I have my own web page started at
http://a-z-studios.com/gallery/ and I have updated my profile accordingly.

I have a long ways to go to be fully functional so give me time.

Ralph I've got to tell you that your web site looks very professional . I am impressed ! And here you were telling us you were a computer dummy.

You have been a busy man in your shop . All the effort you have put into solving this enigma deserves reward. Best of luck to you.

Graham

Graham, Thank you for the compliment!

I am still a computer illiterate, and if were not for the Zach donating his web link and showing me how to get started I would have never achieved it. I have a long ways to go to get text on the pictures and I will be adding more.

Zach's home page is located at http://a-z-studios.com/ Very bright young man of 18 that ran his own PC business while still in high school. He leaves Tuesday for Navy boot camp and then is already scheduled for submarine training where he will become a computer tech dealing with missile guidance control and maintenance.

Seeing as I don't drink, I think the lack of sleep has finally caught up with me! - I could swear that Bessler's eyes are following me around and that he occasionally blows raspberries at me! :-P HELP!!! ;-)

I caught him in the act - see attachment! :-)
Seriously though - has he always done that and I'm just the last to notice it or what?! Funnily enough, on the first Bessler website I made I had him doing exactly the same the thing when you moved the mouse over his image, and on my current website his eyes follow the mouse. I guess there's just something about that image that makes you want to add a bit of humour to it - I have the same urge with the Mona Lisa! ;-)

Stewart

I like the start of your page, and I would like to figure out how to put the backdrop bessler's wheel as my computers walpaper. Moving of course. I think that would be cool.

Really now Stewart, I looked at Bessler's portrait for 5 minutes and didn't see it move at all. I think you're just playing with us.... ;)
