    Are custom scents available?

    those of you having aol problems: maybe get yahoo/hotmail addy with a similiar name and try resuming it with that?
  5. sit back meditate yoga play with aminals and ted watch tv take a looooong bath get massage and otherwise pamper yourself drink some good booze (er, sip it, on the rocks, so ya don't get hung over) and generally try to clear your mind and center yourself and relax while it won't make the mailing problems go away, it will make YOU feel better, at least for a little bit

    Greetings from rainy Las Vegas!

    ^ word (from my mom - no, literally! - and i happen to concur!) uhm, which is not to say that rosefaith or chai_girl are my mom. but my mom expressed similiar sentiments on the phone tonight and for my order, i'm not at all concerned that it hasn't come coz i ordered after you closed up for vacay, so i know you haven't even processed it yet. it'd be pretty dumb of me to be mad at you when it was my own fault for not sending it sooner (and, in fact, it turned out to be GOOD that it happened that way and that you didn't see my name and say, oh it's kate, i'll sneak it in before i leave, because my uni lied to me and wasn't actually there yet - so it would have been refused for lack of funds!!)

    What do bottles and labels look like?

    you can see the 10ml (big blue bottle), the (old) 5 mls (the green bottles), the 1/8oz bottle (the clear spherical bottle), and the imp ears.

    Before I go...

    good luck to ted! enjoy vegas! bring 3 jacks and hit the card tables re the email: have you thought about just using a yahoo or some crap like that for awhile, or at least to reply to mail?

    Email shennanigans.

    not necessarily - after all, linux/bsd's source for *everything* is completely out in the open, and there aren't even a third the number of viruses, worms, etc for them as there is for windows of course, they're also better about announcing problems and patching their code .... then again, they're not windows so people don't hate them

    good enough for now

    shollin - i moved it into sin & salvation and added a description (which shows up with the thread name, eh) that noted that it was discontinued
  14. according to the search, there aren't any perfumes whose descriptions have all three, but eve, glasya, phantom, despair, and silentium amoris have rose and ylang-ylang.
  15. someone mentioned in the annie bonny review that it reminded them of scraping wax off of pews...

    how much help would it be for me to host the template images? there's not that many of em, but still, 10x10x3bytes adds up over time. i can't promise monies at the moment, as fin aid is a month overdue giving me my monies... though that ~should~ be fixed sometime this week
  17. some blends have cedar and/or sandalwood too.. i think my old church was mostly sandalwood/myrrh/frankincense.. it does vary by church though. have you tried cathedral? and if you're just wanting some incense like that, you can get it at a church supply store like this one (first one i found w/ google ).

    What scents are masculine? Gender-neutral?

    i was thinking more of have it be an extra thingie, like an extra special optional selection thingie?

    What scents are masculine? Gender-neutral?

    what if beth and co went through the perfumes and sorted them as 'masculine/unisex/feminine' and we implemented that in the search engine? then there wouldn't be an explicit division, but it'd be semi-easy to find... so men who want bay rum can have it

    I need help with a database.

    the difficulty of encryption depends on how rigorous you want it over an unencrypted line. its not too hard from php, crypt() (or ldap or pgp hacks) will getcha where yer going. and if you can figure out mysql with php, you can figure out access... it's really not that much different, only instead of having to deal with 2 sets of forms [in the sense of data input/output], you have one. and for the most part, it's good about picking out the pieces on its own.

    I need help with a database.

    Sure, I could help you put it into a MySQL database online and write a front end for it if you like in PHP... i *love* php. if you do that, i can toss the perfumes your way but personally, i'm not comfortable with it being online without some sort of security above and beyond a plaintext password [unless one of the fancier algorithms are used though then it's not 'xactly plaintext now is it?] because i'm one paranoid sonuvabitch if there's info like my address on it, which is why i suggested access

    I need help with a database.

    for this kind of thing, the flexibility that a database allows is key. chin - right up my alley but i'm sick and behind in school work (from being sick, not from the search engine) and have 2 tests and 5 major homework assignments this week as well as a rescheduled interview and probably a dr's appt to get better. beth - you could take this as a starting point if you have access. it's a free template, with 99% of everything you'd want already done for you. you'd hafta add a few relational tables (likes, dislikes) and fields (sign, nickname, bust/lush/here/lj to the customers table) (things like extras could be added to the orders as being free), and to the customer form, you'd hafta add a pair of subforms and maybe a third (if you want their previous orders there too)

    Site update.

    what about hellfire?

    Site update.

    you just may be correct there Shollin, since they're not in the search database. nor is hellfire.
