that is empty
i want the name to be
Cursor0000.png
Cursor0001.png
Cursor0002.png
Cursor0003.png
Cursor0004.png
Cursor0005.png
Cursor0006.png
Cursor0008.png
Cursor0009.png
Cursor00010.png

Then in a batch file you can put:

Quote

@echo off
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0000.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0001.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0002.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0003.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0004.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0005.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0006.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0007.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0008.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor0009.png"
create>>"%userprofile%\desktop\Cursor00010.png"
exit

If you double click the .png file, it will say 'No preview available' because it is empty. Just right click the file and click edit and you should be in paint and you can do whatever you want with it.

Note: the 'create' is in the code because i needed something behind the '>>'.

lordoftheplat, may I make a suggestion regarding the image in your signature block? Your image is over 113.29KB. By merely pasting it into Paint and saving as a JPEG file, the file size drops to 20.7KB, or nearly 1/6 the file size of your current image. And, it will look exactly the same.

uh....
"create" isnt usable in ms-dos...
it doesnt exist
there is no such thing in sys32 which is called
"create.com"

Even if the 'create' was changed to 'cheese' you will still get 11 blank png files, lol

lordoftheplat · « **Reply #5 on:** March 21, 2007, 07:26:21 AM »

dont get you explain?
so it should start with
>>

lordoftheplat · « **Reply #6 on:** March 21, 2007, 07:30:10 AM »

ok i get it so the code can just start with >> cuz ms-dos doesnt allow you to
UNDERSTOOD!

Carbon Dudeoxide · « **Reply #7 on:** March 21, 2007, 07:33:42 AM »

lol
In this code [highlight]>>"%userprofile%\desktop\file.png"[/highlight]
[highlight]>>[/highlight] means it saves the file somewhere
[highlight]%userprofile%\desktop\ [/highlight]is the path of where the file is to be saved
[highlight]file.png[/highlight] is the filename and filetype to be saved as
You want a blank file so you can't put
[highlight]echo. "%userprofile%\desktop\file.png"[/highlight]
because it will create a line in the png file making it not work.
because 'create' or 'cheese' is not a recognized code, nothing happens and it creates a file (png) which has nothing in it.

Simple enough?

Carbon Dudeoxide · « **Reply #10 on:** March 21, 2007, 07:44:00 AM »

So you want to have an image already in it?? Because that isn't possible.............

and also get rid of that scroll bar next to your image, suggest getting rid of the text above that DRAGON MAGE picture

lordoftheplat · « **Reply #14 on:** March 21, 2007, 08:03:55 AM »

soybean · « **Reply #15 on:** March 21, 2007, 08:07:44 AM »

Well, I still have "proper eyes" and I don't see a difference. I'd like to hear comments from others on this.

lordoftheplat · « **Reply #16 on:** March 21, 2007, 08:12:38 AM »

ok so u can post the two pictures in a maybe a forum art place and say compare their looks

patio · « **Reply #17 on:** March 21, 2007, 08:17:16 AM »

They look the same to me...

I prefer the one without the goofy scrollbar.

soybean · « **Reply #18 on:** March 21, 2007, 08:19:16 AM »

Let's put'em right next to each other:
Yours

what's this with the avatar argument? if the forum can restrict the size of avatar one can have, then problem solved.

lordoftheplat · « **Reply #24 on:** March 22, 2007, 05:26:56 AM »

ok fine yours is slightly sharper than soybeans but honestly, I wouldn't care about it.

lordoftheplat · « **Reply #26 on:** March 22, 2007, 06:16:49 AM »

seems like u havnt heard of perfection before

Carbon Dudeoxide · « **Reply #27 on:** March 22, 2007, 06:51:26 AM »

Ok, you're sounding like one is perfect and clear and the other one is dull and boring and blurred. I don't see that on my monitor so perhaps it is the monitors you are using that are different. Just a thought.

lordoftheplat · « **Reply #28 on:** March 22, 2007, 07:12:40 AM »

hmm i wish i could change the comp lol
that might make me change my mind on changing the sig:)

Carbon Dudeoxide · « **Reply #29 on:** March 22, 2007, 07:33:58 AM »

you could probably get rid of 'I=' in your signature. Then the 'quote: Goofy Scrollbar' would go away. Then i don't really care what you do about your picture

lordoftheplat · « **Reply #30 on:** March 22, 2007, 07:47:55 AM »

why does it matter?

Many are.

It would be much more courteous to them if they did not have to wait while a huge picture file is loaded.

What does that picture file - not just once, but on every post - offer to them?

The page won't load anyone elses posts until the post it's downloading finishes. People on Dial-up would have to wait for your picture to load.
