Yup. I'd heard you could do it that way, but I had never tried it.
Looks like it works. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

Nice. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] Once Geocities catches on to people doing that, they'll probably forbid direct linking to anything on people's websites though.

Yes, but only on IE4 or better. The web server is delivering the result as a text file using the MIME type text/plain. It's a bug in the Microsoft browser that it looks at the contents of the text file and figures out that it's actually an image file with the wrong name and MIME type. Technically, the browser isn't supposed to do that, but it [i]is[/i] kind of a useful hack.

I wouldn't exactly call that a bug.

Isn't it the mate? I think that in one episode they mentioned you only see male Pak'Ma'Ra because they carry their females.
or I may be hallucinating again.

[b]I can't see why JMs would say its not big, whatever's coming... anything B5 related will be huge for us!

He said it's not big because there's a large percentage of B5 fans who don't play computer games.

Like a duck call for hunters.
It's not big, only appeals to the vorlon hunters in the group of B5 fans. That's what it has gotta be.
I have been waiting years for a decent B5 Keychain!
