  • Microsoft GIF Animator, Why? :(?

    The Jhepple site has deleted Microsoft GIF Animator, and this is a program I used constantly. I need to find a replacement, can anyone help me out?

    I have tried GIMP and do not like it at all, so I'm looking for something quite similar to Microsoft GIF Animator, and preferably free.

    If you have another site to download Microsoft GIF Animator from, that would also be appreciated, though all the links I have found link back to Jhepple and a broken page.

    Thank you!

  • Could anyone help me understand/solve these physics problems?

    I've tried everything I can think of both for equations with and without constant acceleration/velocity but I feel like I'm not given enough information. Can anyone help me figure out how to solve these problems?

    A rock is tossed straight up with a velocity of +20m/s When it returns, it falls into a hole 10m deep. What is the rock's velocity as it hits the bottom of the hole, and how long is the rock in the air, from the instant it is released until it hits the bottom of the hole?

    A toy train is pushed forward and released at x0 = 2.0m with a speed of 2.0m/s. It rolls at a steady speed for 2.0s, then one wheel begins to stick. The train comes to a stop 6.0m from the point at which it was released. What is the magnitude of the train's acceleration after it begins to stick? (This one requires 2 significant figures in the answer).

    Please don't give an answer without an explanation. Thanks so much!

  • How to Play Against Computer in VS. Mode in Super Smash Brothers Melee?

    I've been trying for over an hour to play against a computer opponent here, but I seem unable to do so. It won't let me pick a second player or anything, nor do I see any option to let me play against a computer. Everyone claims you can do it - I can't figure out how though, and they won't tell me. Anyone know? Thanks.

  • Having Trouble with Nintendo Wii Sports Resort?

    I tried the swordplay, and no matter what I do I can't start the match. It says point at screen and press A. I do and nothing happens. I got a hand to appear once (have no idea what I hit) and was then able to move the hand to A, and press it to start. How do I make that hand appear? I can't find instructions on this anywhere...

  • Name of Rock/Metal Song?

    I head this fantastic song this morning, but I only heard the last few seconds of it. They sang something that sounded like "kick it up", then shouted something like "hey!", and ended with singing "na na na na na na" - but of course, there are only over 100 songs that fit this description.

    I do know it's a rock/metal song, and it should be fairly current. Even just naming a few groups likely to have this song would help a whole lot. Some things are just impossible to find without assistance...

  • USAF...can someone explain a bit to me?

    Let's say someone enlists in the United States Air Force...about how long will they be there before they can come home? Week, months, years? And when they come home, how long will they be staying? A day or two, and then leaving again? Someone in my family is enlisting and I'm worried that I'll never be able to see them or talk to them once they leave...

  • Why isn't my boyfriend talking to me?

    This has been going on for a week now. The first three days I was worried, and then he told me that he just wanted to be left alone...which is fine...except now he is talking to all of his friends, just not me. I told him that if he wants to break up with me then he should do that instead of ignoring me. Nothing is worse than not knowing. But he never got back to me. I'm willing to hang around another week or two in case he's just going through something right now, but...I would really like to know why he isn't talking to me. I know you can't tell me for sure, only he can. But since he won't...your best guesses would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Looking for Apartments...Help?

    I'm a Las Vegas local, I've been here for 6 years now. But I live with my parents, and I want to move into an apartment. Yes I can afford one...maybe not a grand one, but I don't care so much about that. However, I need help looking for one.

    I've never looked for an apartment before, and my parents are so controlling that I do not want their help with this project until I at least know something I can use against them in the inevitable argument that will occur.

    So, my first question is, what is the average price for an apartment out here? And second...how do I go about finding one, picking one out? Does anyone have a helpful website or know of a good newspaper that I could use to look? Thanks so much!

    By the way, thinking around the Henderson area, if that makes a difference.

  • How to draw shapes in C++?

    Without using built-in functions or string functions. Just using for and/or while loops, with very basic programming...an example of a Horizontal Line would be this (to give you an idea):

    while (i < line + 1)

    {

    cout << shapesym;

    i++;

    }

    Except I need to know how to draw a triangle like this

    __#

    _##

    ###

    With _ as a blank line, and a diamond like this:

    __#__

    _###_

    #####

    _###_

    __#__

    Also with _ as a blank line.

    Please, can anyone help? I am having a lot of trouble figuring out how to make these shapes, even though I understand looping...it's the drawing part with the loop that is throwinng me off, I can't get anything to turn out right...

  • Model falls down and crawls away?

    No, I am not talking about the one where the model falls twice and the newspeople laugh. This one is better than that.

    It is one where the model is in heels, having some trouble, and then after she gets off the runway there is a curtain you can see through and she falls behind it and then just crawls away.

    I saw it on TV a few years ago, but don't know where, maybe like america's funniest videos or something like that. Can't find it anywhere on the internet, does anyone at least know what I'm talking about? Would be great if you had a link to a video for it...

  • What does it mean if a guy gives mixed signals?

    i mean mixed signals as in...does stuff you would expect your boyfriend to do, ask you to places and buy stuff for you and hold open doors, says stuff that makes it sound like he wants to kiss you or something, but aside from that only treats you like a friend (although a good one) and never makes a single move towards you? never returns the favor when you flirt with him and you can't even get a handshake from him? i'm dreadfully confused but haven't known him long enough to ask him about it without seeming creepy. can anyone help me? thanks.

  • Allergic to tomatoes...kind of?

    I can eat raw tomatoes just fine...but once you cook them, I can't have them. If I eat them my throat starts to swell shut. I have the same problem with ketchup and tomato sauce (once again, cooked tomatoes, I'm sure).

    What does cooking do to the tomatoes? It has to be something that's released when you cook them that I'm allergic to, does anyone know what it is or have a similar problem?

  • I need help with downloaded fonts?

    I just downloaded two fonts. Now I've downloaded many fonts in the past and have always been able to use them on Powerpoint.

    Now I open up Powerpoint, and my downloaded fonts aren't there. My old ones are, but the new ones are not and will not show up. They only appear on Microsoft Word.

    What is happening? How can I get them on Powerpoint again? I have tried uninstalling and downloading/installing again multiple times.

  • University of Nevada, Las Vegas - orientation?

    Ever since we moved to Vegas I've wanted to go to UNLV because it's way cheaper than going out of state. And I've been accepted!

    But...orientation. I'm a transfer student, and I have to go anyway. But, what about parents? It looks kind of like the parent orientation is mandatory, and my parents have no interest in going (since I'll be living with them when I go to school there, what's the point?)

    Does anyone know if the parent orientation is mandatory? Or, how you can avoid paying for it when you pay for the student orientation?

  • Can someone list out names of some CLASSIC books?

    I have to read a book similar to the ones we have read in English, but not have ever read it for school before (means I can't use anything on a previosu reading list, darn). I like reading but not classics! So I don't know any. Here is what I have read:

    Tartuffe by Jean-Baptiste Poquelin

    Candide by François-Marie Arouet

    Faust by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

    Hedda Gabler by Henrik Ibsen

    The Cherry Orchard by Anton Chekhov

    Death in Venice by Thomas Mann

    Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad

    Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe

    Does anyone know books that are kind of like that, but are short? We only have a week to buy it, read it, and write a giant report on it.

  • Please help bad broken keyboard!?

    I cried on it earlier tonight - I'e done it so often before but it's always been fine! Until now. It broke the keyboard (I guess) and now the...letter (using right click copy/paste here) v does not work at all and the shift key on the right only works with certain letters, it doesn't work with b, f, g, r, and t...although lowercase I can type them all.

    Is that why it broke? Or is there another reason? I can't hae this happen again it's my only computer and my only keyboard and I can't get a new one until wednesday or so...yes it's under warranty but still, can't do anything until later...

  • Drum set: Rock Band and GH: World Tour?

    I'm going to buy both games, and I only want to buy 1 drum set. I'm thinking World Tour drum set, because there are 6 colors vs. the 5 on Rock Band.

    My question: what happens when you use that set on Rock Band? Is the foot pedal still the foot pedal, or do you have to hit the orange symbol when that comes up? I know the color is orange, but my friends and I think there's a chance the foot pedal could still be used. Can anyone confirm this?

  • Please tell me how to get help...?

    I can't stand living in my house anymore. Today I told my mom that it doesn't feel like Chistmas for some reason, and she freaked out and said she's going to throw me out of the house. She said a lot of other things too, about how she hates me and I'll never amount to anything. She says stuff like this all the time...it's driven me to be suicidal. But I can't get help for it :( I want to, but I can only use the computer when she's not home - it gets locked in her closet when she is. I'm not allowed to make a phone call at all, and she disconnects the phones when she isn't here. My closest family lives about 5 days drive away - and I don't drive, I don't know how to. I'm afraid to run away because they'll send the police after me. But I'm so scared...I don't know how much longer I can spend in this house. I understand this probably isn't the best place to go for help but the website I normally go to is down...

  • Lactose Intolerant...help?

    I've been lactose intolerant all my life. I've always been able to eat cheese with no problem, but straight milk made me very sick. Ice cream would give me a slight stomachache every time I ate it but I would never get really sick as long as I only had it once a month. Sour cream never really bothered me all that much, but I never ate it often.

    Suddenly, in the past month, I'm getting bad reactions. Ice cream and sour cream give me a bad case of the runs for the entire day - yeah, disgusting, I know, but you can't help me if you don't know what's happening. Cheese still appears to be okay. I never drink straight milk, still. But I'm really concerned.

    My parents won't bring me to the doctor because they say it's not all that serious. I know sometimes things get worse when you get older. But it happened so quickly - does anyone have an idea of what might be going on?
