Because that's the minimum amount before they pay up.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Alrighty, so, in case you haven't noticed, we're running ThinkGeek banners! I like them already - they don't seem to slow the forum down like Clicksor did. Anyway, from what I understand, these aren't PPC (pay-per-click) or PPV (pay-per-view) banners, but a commission-based system. So when you visit ThinkGeek through clicking on the banner and actually buy a product, we get a percentage. So, that's the story for now. We'll see how it goes - I truly have no idea how much income this is going to bring in, but I like ThinkGeek so much anyway, I'd run their ads for free (Shhhh!! Don't tell them I said that!). :p

"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Thanks :)

On that note (that note being "someone noticed"..) I'm playing around with the forum graphics a bit myself. Nothing drastic as I don't really know what goes where yet. But if anyone has any suggestions I'd quite like to hear them... they should however be reasonable and in keeping with the HLP site theme. I'm not changing everything pink because you say so and such suggestions may/will be ignored ;)

Yeah, the blue just didn't go with the maroon it clashed like my teacher's plads. I think this was mentioned somwhere, but I can't find it now: are the links to the HLP homepage and Wiki ever going to return to the forums?

Sorry if I shouldn't have been a gravedigger

Thanks to whoever added the links back again, no more people asking where the wiki is (I hope).
