Screenshots Uploaded to DesktopShots (finally!)
Filed under: — orudge @ 10/11/2001 12:00 am
I have finally got around to uploading a bunch of screenshots for DesktopShots… find them here.
40,000 hits and new screenshots at DesktopShots
Filed under: — orudge @ 28/10/2001 12:00 am
I have uploaded a couple of new screenshots to DesktopShots (in addition to the ones mentioned below which were uploaded late again…..). Also, a couple of hours ago, this site had it’s 40,000th hit, and guess who had the 40,000th hit? Me! (OK, I admit, I went to the site and it happened to be 39,995, so I pressed refresh a couple of times…..). On another note, Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager 2.1 should be available soon, which offers several bug fixes and enhanced features.
New screenshots at DesktopShots

I have uploaded three new screenshots to DesktopShots. Keep them coming!
MEGA update!
Filed under: — orudge @ 19/10/2001 12:00 am
This is going to be a mega update, as I’ve been having big Internet connection problems and have been unable to upload the site! Everything from here to "D’oh!" below is updated! Anyway, I’ve added a new link to the Transport Tycoon Station Links page – please do check it out! I’ve also fixed a little bug with the rating system which means that it’ll work properly with certain dynamic pages.
Utility Base Updates, plus everything else I’ve done
Filed under: — orudge @ 17/10/2001 1:00 am
Lots of updates today, half of which should have been uploaded ages ago. 
Anyway, I’ve released WinAmp Control Centre 1.1, which is much better than the original version. If you use WinAmp, check this out! (BTW, if you’re interested in a possible use of the WinAmp Control Centre, see my DesktopShots screenshots). I’ve also uploaded a new utility called SplitSound. This splits WAV files up into numerous x-second chunks. On a completely different topic, I’ve added a "better" Internal Server Error page. Hopefully you will never see it. Last of all, I have added a new Old Polls page. Just click the Old Polls link in the poll box on the right hand side of every page to see a list of older polls and to see their results. BTW: If you got here via www.owenrudge.com, you might not be able to get here that way soon. Use www.owenrudge.co.uk instead.
New Screenshots at DesktopShots

I’ve uploaded some new screenshots to DesktopShots. The DesktopShots screenshots will be moving to a more reliable and faster server soon. This will take a little while to do as there are over 25mb of screenshots! Be sure to check back! On a slightly different note, it’s pretty much exactly a year since this site had just had 4,000 hits. Now the site has had around 37,500, at a rate of over 1,200 hits a week!
OSPlus Disk Imager 1.4 Released
Filed under: — orudge @ 16/10/2001 1:00 am
I have released version 1.4 of the OSPlus Disk Imager. This fixes a MAJOR bug from version 1.3, and adds various other useful features. Download it now.
More Screenshots Uploaded
Filed under: — orudge @ 12:00 am
I have uploaded a few more screenshots to DesktopShots, including a particularly nice one of Melissa Joan Hart.
D’oh!
Filed under: — orudge @ 12:00 am
It turns out that when I awarded the October award to the Bad Seal site, NameZero (who host www.badseal.org) decided to terminate Bad Sector (the owner of the site)’s account. I can’t remember the (long) URL to the site right now, but there is another one at www.badseal.cjb.net.
And the October Award Goes To…
Filed under: — orudge @ 01/10/2001 1:00 am
… the Bad Seal web site. Not a bad site at all. [Heh… "Bad" Seal, "bad" site, get it? I’ll go back to sleep now, shall I? ] Click here to go to the Awards page.
OSPlus Disk Imager 1.4 coming soon plus other updates
Filed under: — orudge @ 12:00 am
I made a BIG error in version 1.3 of the Disk Imager that rendered half of it practically useless. I have fixed this problem and added several new features. I’ll release version 1.4 very soon. See the SourceForge site for more information. Also, I’ve uploaded a new screenshot to DesktopShots.
New screenshots at DesktopShots plus other little updates
Filed under: — orudge @ 15/09/2001 12:00 am
I have added two new screenshots to DesktopShots. Please keep them coming! I have also fixed the poll so that voting/viewing the results on certain pages (eg, on a DesktopShots gallery or the TT FAQ) works properly. There have also been some (mainly internal) updates to the Ultimate Transport Tycoon Game Repository.
Melissa-related updates plus new screenshot at DesktopShots
Filed under: — orudge @ 08/09/2001 1:00 am
The new Melissa Joan Hart forum is doing very well! I have received another e-mail from Mel and have updated the Melissa section of the Information/Feedback page. I’ve also added a new screenshot to DesktopShots, and updated the TT Download page a bit. I also improved the 404 (page not found) page a bit too. Finally, the site has had over 31,000 hits! A week ago we hit 30,000!
OSPlus Disk Imager 1.3 Released!
Filed under: — orudge @ 12:00 am
A few days ago I released version 1.3 of OSPlus Disk Imager. This is an open source disk imaging utility for DOS. Click here to go to the OSPlus (Open Source) web site on SourceForge.
Various Updates
Filed under: — orudge @ 01/09/2001 12:00 am
Yesterday I returned from a very good trip to Edinburgh. Before I left, I had updated various things on this site but not mentioned them here, so I’ll do that now. First of all, I launched a new poll about a week ago. This is asking if you use the excellent WinAmp media player. You can view the results of the previous poll about Office XP here. I’ve also launched a new Melissa Joan Hart forum, which has proved popular. If you are a Melissa fan, then check it out!
This month, I’ve decided to award the August 2001 award to Humorix – an excellent site with fake news (most of the time!) and jokes about Linux, Microsoft, hacking, the DMCA and various other things. The Awards section is now just over a year old! Getting near the end, I’ve uploaded two new screenshots to DesktopShots. Finally, this site has nearly had 30,000 hits!
Two new screenshots added to DesktopShots plus new Melissa Joan Hart section on links page
Filed under: — orudge @ 25/08/2001 12:00 am
I’ve added two new screenshots to DesktopShots (one of which I particularly like!). I’ve also added a new Melissa Joan Hart section to the Links page. At some point in the future, I may create a Melissa Joan Hart sub-site!
Drop down menus fix and SGM 2.0 update
Filed under: — orudge @ 18/08/2001 1:00 am
I have received a couple of reports that the drop-down menus do not display correctly on some versions of Netscape 6 (they work fine on my Mozilla 0.9), so I have disabled them for NS6/Mozilla. Also, you can now customise the menus, so you can either have the menus on, or just the "bar", or turn the whole lot off completely. Go to the Customise page for more information. Also, it turns out that I missed an important file from Saved Game Manager 2.0 and so I have uploaded a fixed version. I have also uploaded a smaller version that doesn’t include the VB5 runtime files, which many people have. Click here to go to the Saved Game Manager page. I’ve also discovered that I uploaded binaries to Jon Heather’s modified version of Bad Seal, but forgot to update the site. Click here to download them.
owenrudge.co.uk has won the 2001-2002 Golden Web Award!
Filed under: — orudge @ 12:00 am
When I checked my e-mail earlier today, I received the stuff, plus an e-mail entitled "Your Award Results", and it turns out that I’ve won the 2001-2002 Golden Web Award!
BIG NEWS! Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager 2.0 Released!
Filed under: — orudge @ 16/08/2001 12:00 am
Exactly one year ago today, I released the first version of a fairly small and simple program named Transport Tycoon Saved Game Manager. One year on, I am releasing version 2.0, which is MUCH better than any existing version. There are many many new and improved features, and the Manager has been totally rewritten. This is highly recommended if you play TT! Click here for more information!
Title Bar Clock 1.1 Released
Filed under: — orudge @ 13/08/2001 12:00 am
I have released version 1.1 of Title Bar Clock. This contains an improved setup/uninstall program, and various internal changes. Take a look!
