Try opening the .MAP and/or .VMF in Notepad and have a fiddle. Back it up first, obviously.

It's just about usable at exactly 800x600 (window size, not res) and alright at 1024x768. 1280x1024, of course, it's fine.

IFRAMEs aren't exactly great, though. People scroll, they want everything to move. There doesn't seem to be any need for them, so just do it the 'modern' (post-'99) way ;).

I don't think so in HLDM. Is that what you're talking about?

Either "out" or "over". "Over" means you expect a reply, and "out" means you don't. It's a contradiction. Nobody in aviation or the military will ever say "over and out".

I agree with Bratty mostly ? except for the fact that his avatar is of displeasing proportions and too large. It'd be better re-done with larger text in a more interesting typeface, and as a PNG image to annihilate the nasty JPEG artifacts around the writing.

Avatars I like (will update this post with my supreme editing powers):
  • ZombieLoffe's. He always has great avatars;
  • Ant's. I think the new one might be better, though;
  • m0p's. His is good.

Drumrole? What the hell? Do you mean 'drum roll'?
Walk on with an appropriately sized cooler that says :"human head" on the side.
"Appropriately-sized", I believe.

Anyway, on the subject, for those of you who haven't read The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, here's one of my favourite bits (entirely omitted from the film ? damn simpleminded Yank senses of humor). It's when Arthur Dent is discussing the demolition of his house with the council worker Prosser:
PROSSER: But, Mr. Dent, the plans have been available in the local planning office for the last nine months.

DENT: Oh yes, well as soon as I heard I went straight round to see them, yesterday afternoon. You hadn't exactly gone out of your way to call attenion to them, had you? I mean like actually telling anybody or anything?

PROSSER: But the plans were on display...

DENT: On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.

PROSSER: That's the display department.

DENT: With a torch.

PROSSER: Ah, well the lights had probably gone.

DENT: So had the stairs.

PROSSER: But look, you found the notice, didn't you?

DENT: Yes, yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Leopard".
