Let's start with the obvious: your can't format text worth a darn.
I did nothing to the above paragraph, and it comes out looking like
crap. Tip-- indent three (3) spaces at the start of a paragraph, and
make the right edge of your paragraph somewhat even.
Next, the basic rules of usenet which you seem to have either
forgotten, or never had the intelligence to learn:
1) BE RELEVANT. That means learning what newsgroup you're posting to,
and stopping for the fraction of a second to see if what you're
posting _should_ be there in the first place. You didn't bother to
check that you're posting advertisements for some random Macintrash
page and programs in a non-Macintrash newsgroup. If you insist on
continuing in such atrocious self-publicity, do it over in
comp.sys.mac.misc.
2) DO NOT POST BINARIES TO A NON BINARIES NEWSGROUP. _Especially_
off-topic, cruddy looking gifs of some wannabe self-promotional dork
hacked up picture. Please cancel the posting of that crud you spammed
here immediately. They do not belong here or in any other group
without 'binaries' in the newsgroup name. [And don't think that
comp.binaries.apple2 is a place to post it-- it's just as irrevelant
there as it is here.]
>The Software Co. Page gave it a ***** star rating. Come on in.
Who the heck are they, and why should we care? It's already off-topic.
>With frames (done with the help of
>Professionals)
Unlike your paragraphs. Or did you mean the professionals that come
in their clean white coats every day to help you get better?
>Hope you like Marcoopio's Logo
As a matter of fact, I hated it. Rotten dithering, crappy design,
unreadable title text at the top, and other assorted flaws that make
the garbage in it really stand out.
Have a nice day.
