oh come on. decent webspace is cheap, there is no reason to annoy users
with that kind of crap. plus i was using a friend's windows machine,
which makes me kinda wary of malware.

You seem to be annoyed pretty easy if one popup makes you go into stress......



i have since browsed it from my own machine, only to find that you have
chosen to trap right clicks throughout the page, taking my context menu
away. very annoying. particularly so since you decided to do without
navigation elements.

Yep, I did that because I found some of the stuff we developed appearing on another website as a direct copy including pictures...... but not mentioning where it came from and who made it........ I know this protection isn't very safe, but for noobs it is. Everything on the site is free to use, but not free to make copies of the guides and publish them elsewhere. No navigation elements ? You're kidding, right ? So you're still stuck at the indexpage ? ROTFL !


so forgive me for not looking this gift horse in the mouth for a decent
review.


I'm sorry to say that IMO you're nagging.......it's about the content, but starting with nagging about a popup and no way to right-click, is IMHO just nagging for the nagging. Can't take that very serious.

I can nag too if you want...... what is Meister f?r ? And B?hne  ?
This is an English mailinglist, never thought of characters with an Umlaut might become unreadable on such a list ? Must I say now , like you did, that that is the reason for me not to look at anything else from you ?????
And for sure doesn't look very professional to me either........

I'm not trying to flame or annoy you, but hope this works as a mirror for you, so you understand that your initial comment was just out of line and could have been worded a lot nicier !!!!
