ok.
and why can't someone just copy your source code and make their own site exactly like yours?

If you are asking, "why are you not able to?", then I don't know. I don't know anything about HTML code. You know more about it than I do, so you'd just have to poke around on the internet for information on that. But if you meant, "why are you not allowed to?" then, some might call that plagiarizing. But if you did that, and cotumized it to your own liking to promote your own stuff, then the person who originally wrote that source code, or anyone else for that matter, might not notice.

that makes sense. maybe we should move to PMing?

Why? This is raising our post counts! And we will be looked upon as ver active members of this forum! Infact, this is my 100TH post! Muahahaha! And besides, by the time we finish this conversation, we'd have filled our in-boxes and sent items folders 75% percent of the way, and it'd be nice to save that storage if we can. Ofcoarse, we wouldn't just use this topic to spontaneously start new topics, but you get the idea.

your right. Ihave a job making html websites for people. it's easy and fun.

got to go bye.

It is actually possable... I have done it with the BricxCC Website and the nxtRICedit website. Just right click and go 'save' or 'view source'.

So you mean to say that you're getting into your E-mail software, (i.e. Outlook Express) clicking "compose message", pasting in your stuff, clicking spell check, and finally pasting that spelling-checked text back into the pace where that web site's original text resided? And you repeat this process each time you go to a different piece of text? That would be time consuming.

Did you know that Google Chrome has a built in spell checker?

Warning: The Nitpicker is here.

First of all, use a Spell Checker.

I've got a few tips...

The HTML H*** Page (WARNING: May contain some "bad language"... Nothing you haven't heard in school if your 13+, though.)

Your colors should be something you've got to say. Do you picture freedom? White clouds.. blue sky... Doom? Bloodred flashes of darkness... A sharp contrast between the dark and light... provide a hopeless experience. (That's the worst advice I've ever given. )

Try using Color Scheme Designer to pick nice colors that go together. The Green background doesn't look too appropriate with the black and white. Fool around with Color Scheme Designer, and you should get something that looks awesome - settle with nothing less. Oh, and make sure your text is readable, if you pick something other than dark grey* on a light shade of any color.

*Don't use plain black on white. Pick dark grey for the text (like this text; it uses #333333), and a light shade of any color you choose (#ECF3F7).

Web Developer Tools!

• Get Chrome or Firefox. IE is horrible for web development. You can argue all you want [Sidneys1 ], but why do you think every professional web designer uses FF? (Or Chrome.) Good job for using Firefox!
• Firebug - A must have for web development. Chrome's Built-in Developer Tools are also pretty decent. If you insist on using IE, you can use Firebug Lite.
• An IDE. You are using NetBeans, aren't you?

The Bad

• [...]
• NXT-G is endorsed by lego
• NXT-G is much more user friendly

And how is that bad? The second one can actually be considered good.
(And yes, I may be taking things a bit too literally, but that is how I interpreted it at first.)

P.S. You missed The Ugly.

Wow, that's harsh. You should choose one of the Creative Commons licenses, and if not that, at least allow people to quote you. (I'm not entirely sure if you can prevent people from quoting you.)

I know. i'm running it threw spell checkers now but it's a long and painful process

Oh god, make it stop!
