With all the computer geeks we have on the board and all the computer geeks who I know who own guns and not ONE of them can make a TRUE countdown clock????
One that is zipping by the seconds with a number of days, hours, minutes and seconds....??? |
|
AWBansunset.com has a live time clock on the home page, but I couldnt link to it.
|
|
good idea. i second it. |

There are a couple ways he could do this, but he could write a simple app on his local machine that generates the image and places in on the web server every day, as a simple alternative... Just schedule it using the Task Sceduler. |

we need a countdown clock here, one that builds an ar, and adds evil features as the day approached

Here's a couple of countdown HTML scripts.
Countdown anything you want! |

That's only part of the good news. Counting weekends, holidays, recesses (these guys take a lot of time off), there's only something like 40 days left (as of today), where Congress is actually in session. Through in the fact that the critters rarely vote on a Friday or Monday (most are traveling over the weekend), one third of the Senate and all of the House are up for re-election and are busy campaigning... and the Congress is scheduled to adjourn by Oct 1st; I'd say things are looking pretty good right about now.
Not that I'm totally reassured we're out of the hole just yet; I'll believe it on Sept 14th and not a day sooner. |

We don't need a countdown clock. We have Absolute's sig line.

Yeah really and you don't have to look far to find one of his posts either. |

I'll believe it a day sooner myself, as it ceases to exist at 12:00am on September 13, 2004. -Troy |

which is more odd? that you posted this, or that I had decided to create one without seeing this thread?
it still needs some minor work, but I just started coding it saturday night, for one thing the check marks aren't working in the menu, and I want it to be able to save the custom date option, but it works as a 12 hour clock, 24 hour clock, countdown to the AWB expiring, or countdown to any other date selected. Also has an always on top option. also needs an icon other than the visual c++ default Geocities sucks with hotlinks, so just copy and paste the address, add a space to the end and press enter http://www.geocities.com/tatical15th/arfcom/countdown.zip www.geocities.com/tatical15th/arfcom/countdown.zip hotlinked on the off chance the hotlink will work, but I doubt it edit: when it runs it defaults to the AWB countdown and to be always on top. also loads into the top left corner of the screen. program window can be moved and the always on top option turned off. When I get around to the finishing touches I'll upload it under the same name so the link won't change

Won't affect those of us under Caliban rule, but my hat's off for everyone else!

The countdown to September the 13th is of Great importance,
But the countdown to the election is FAR GREATER THAN THE AWB. Go Bush. (Not trying to dog this thread at all, just reminding everyone, my self included, of the greater war we have to fight) |

I can't believe how little faith you people have, not believing it will expire until september 13. I will believe it at 11:59:59 PM on september 12
|
|
Thats why I will be having my party at exactly that time. |
|
|
Worked a little more on mine, still need to convert the Bmps to Jpg....Linky

Do what? I just mocked up a dummy ARFCOM clone page and added the clock then put it on my server. Took me 2 mins |
|
|
Figured as much. Wouldn't it have been easier to just take a screen shot and edit it. |

|
Not a screen shot. Just captured it in FronPage. Basically copy and paste. |
