What's the simplest wiki software out there? Or, more specifically, which app has the simplest user authority module, because I want to swap it out.
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Wouldn't you be happier to be nuked and restored and on your way? Wouldn't that be less stressful than worrying about it every single day?
OH MY GOD I FIXED IT.
crosses fingers
I was all set to uninstall and reinstall the K-Lite Codec Pack, which contains libmplayer.dll, but I didn't remember whether it would require me to restart, so I was waffling on whether I wanted to bother this morning. But I Googled Pixie Pack Codec Pack, which also came up on a search for that file and I don't remember ever installing. It turns out that it got installed when I installed Tunebite, which I recall gave me some problems (I feel like it did some freaky things during the install that scared me). That was last year. But I thought, fuck it, let me uninstall Pixie Pack Codec Pack since I don't even need it and never wanted it.
AND NOW EVERYTHING WORKS. All four programs that crashed when opening things—Paint, IrfanView, Outlook Express, and Explorer—now open files with no problems. I have no idea why the issue only presented now and why it was an issue at all, but uninstalling Pixie Pack Codec Pack and getting that DLL file off my system has solved my problem. No nuking required at the moment, thank goodness. And I also feel a sense of accomplishment for sticking at it, researching, and detectiving. Thanks to everyone who listened to me bitch and moan for the last week!

Did a JPG manipulator ship with Tiger? There was something quick and dirty that I was using when I didn't need to Gimp it up. But I don't remember the name.
I am getting very old.

Hey. New board.
Preview can do some very basic stuff. Otherwise you need something else. I use something called Paintbrush for MS Paint equivalencies.

I just need to do photo stuff, not actual pixel editing, if you see the distinction. Resizing, colour balance, cropping, etc.
The Gimp I downloaded was a resource hog and partially in French to boot. I'm not sure why Opera insists on placing me in Europe to websites. Let me try getting there with Safari.

Not on my copy of Leopard, though I swear I had it on Tiger. And the web site tells me to buy iLife for it.

ita,
depending on what you need to do, there are free websites that will manipulate photos for you.
