Bronys, say no more And screwing up every marketing/newsletter/order email that employs a 1x1px image for tracking to see when it's been opened! Proxying means they will likely scan the email first to precache content, ruining the analytics options, interesting to see how Mailchimp etc respond as it's a big selling point to get stuff like that on bulk emails EDIT: Looks like it's all good (and actually better) http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the ... eir-email/_________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.

Just visited the PC Pro forum, and someone was complaining about how bad their site is, so I posted this... Hope nobody minds.  | | | | In the PC Pro Forum, John Vella wrote: Hi all, If you've had enough of the Dennis forums, this may be of interest to you. When the good folks at Dennis Towers decided to screw around with the forums of their various magazines, (PC Pro Mac User, etc) by splitting up The meeting Place into separate forums, a group of us jumped ship and we started our own place. It's callled X404 and here is the link: X404 Forum LinkWe are a friendly bunch, and always happy to meet new people, so pop in and say hello. If you've been on these forums for a while you'll probably recognise some of the people there. Hope this helps, John. | | | | |

It is an interesting idea. There are some things that are not readily available on the high street and I would consider something like this. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted.

So that was what was happening. I must have missed the balloons in the original footage because of some filter.  _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

Strangely enough I used that joke on a course earlier that day. Though there are a couple of inconsistencies in the image.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.
