  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    USB 2.0 question

    Be sure to purchase a name brand hub that clearly indicates that it meets the USB 2.0 spec. Likely that you won't find one that doesn't meet the spec but I bet there are some around online or something. Just something to be aware of. Adam

    Opera 7.5 preview :)

    I looked at Opera when I was in middle school / high school (in college now) but haven't touched it since. LOL...y'all got me interested. So I'll have to check it out. I do regularly use Mozilla Firebird. I like the integrated popup blocker it has. Relatively small memory footprint, too...

    which IM is the best?

    Not saying this is the best setup... ...but I use AIM version 5.2.3292 with the DeadAIM version 4.1 plugin from jdennis.net. BTW, if you are looking for a plugin like DeadAIM be aware that AIM+ (big-o-software.com) and MyIM do the same thing as DeadIM and are both free compared to DeadAIM...

    Rippin' CDS to MP3 Format

    For the absolute best quality mp3's use Exact Audio Copy (EAC). If there are too many options in EAC you may use a program called CDex. It's a little simpler but still still ranks up there quality wise. Probably only second to EAC. CDex also alows you to use the LAME codec for maximum...
