Suspension Appeal

01 November 2010 - 05:58 PM

Username: Jullie
domain: vsnrypictures.com
sub-domain: deanjullie.com
package: Personal 300

My account has apparently been suspended because "There is no actual content on your website."
Firstly, I think you need to adjust the way you suspend accounts. Perhaps some kind of written warning before suspension.

Secondly I don't believe this suspension is justified, here goes why;
- There was/is content on both my domain and sub domain. Define how much content is the minimum ><
- The domain is as explained in my proposal for showcasing videos. There isn't going to many pages to that website.
- The sub domain is a portfolio. Most likely going to be one page.
- I do plan to have way more content on both domain and sub domain.
- I am actually in the process of building both websites, and learning html/php.
- I am a mere week away from finishing my University degree. So I assume you understand the workload of a degree and how hard it can be to get time to work on hobbies.
- The 20 days suggested in the midway message of my application thread passed, I had assumed the content had been cleared.

If you have further questions or a different explanation as to why my account was suspended please let me know.
I am surprised that there was not enough content visible to make it obvious I was working on the websites / what I was planning to do.

video player

27 September 2010 - 09:23 PM

Was wondering if anyone has some experience / tips for a video player to use.

I am trying to have a video player on my site, that looks as minimalistic as possible until played.
So far Sublime player seems to be the best available. Though in Beta phase and looks like it will cost money to use.
Using HTML5 it allows a poster frame before the video is played. This is great as the design for my site has a logo center of screen, hence me wanting the player as minimalistic as possible until played.
So far Sublime player has a fade grey effect (which I don't want) when the mouse isn't hovering on it and I can't center it on pageEDIT: centered with CSS margin: auto; override.
Downsides to Sublime: soon to not be free, have to host the video files (multiple files for compatibility locally)

I have been using Youtube and Vimeo to host movie files so it would be grand if there was some nice embed code for those somewhere. If possible that would be the ideal solution.

Does anyone know of any nice HTML5 video implementations or youtube/vimeo embed code alternatives?

My site with Sublime player: vsnrypictures.com
My site with a simple youtube embed: deanjullie.com

Hosting Multiple Domains

12 September 2010 - 10:50 PM

With Go Daddy promo codes like this always being available.
And my wanting to host another site, for slightly different content.

Is it possible that I can have a second domain name point to my sub domain?
Excuse if this is a nub question.

Quick google search reveals possibility - Rewriting URLs to host multiple domains on a single IP address with Apache

i7 cpu price drop

06 September 2010 - 06:34 PM

Intel rumored to be dropping the i7 prices sometime soon, has anyone read any more info on this? confirm y/n?
Personally I am wanting to buy a new pc, the i5 750 was ~250AUD and it was getting great reviews but my trusty Umart doesn't sell them anymore :( So I'm eagerly waiting for the i7s to drop slightly in price :)

any reservations about hyper threading in the i7 compared to the i5? worth it?
