    Silly question that only a computer nerd can answer

    everytime I open explorer, it opens a full window, but when I click on a link while browsing, it opens a small window that I have to resize. When I resize, subsequent windows open at that size, but if I close and re-open explorer, I am back to square one. How do I fix this ?

    to the extent that "DIFFERENT" is good.

    I seem to be seeing a recurring theme in music appreciation. A piece of music will be loved by the masses for no other reason than it is different. It seems that even the best formats wear off after a while when they are overused. The big question is: How does one do different? I mean, How...

    Peep my boy. Very interesting note on the wildcard

    This is another nigerian artist doing his thang. The difference is that he does not have any intonation problems like me. Anyhow, on to what's important. The wildcard. On his song, WINTER IN JULY, the wildcard consists of five syllables spanning THREE, yes, THREE words. WIthout those five...

    explain this phenomenon

    the mp3 submitters who get five stars ALWAYS get five stars (sluice, crawdad,Jmarcomb and a host of others) Those who dont get five stars usually never do. Is it that some songwriters are just more talented all around, or do these guys have some hidden thing that I dont know about. Please...

    This could be a earth shaking approach

    In fact, I know that it will be an earth shaking approach, but only if I have the fortitude to seriously think about it, research it, and develop it. 200 years from now, they might be calling CyanJaguar the father of "melodic quantitative" and the institutor of a generation of hit songwriters...

    I believe that there are rules and I find it ludicrous that some people dont believe that there are rules that dictate what a good melody is. I'd like to see different points of view though, so I would like you all to kindly argue for or against the theory of rules.
