skype to skype is free.
Other skype users would call you, your phone would ring, you'd answer it just like any other call, and you wouldn't be stuck sitting in front of a computer with a funny headset on.
but what I'd really like to see is instructions on how to run skype over a normal (non-cell) phone plugged into one's modem. It'd be even better if the phone had different (definable) ring-lengths, and would connect from the modem back into the normal wall jack (to receive non-voip calls).
You wouldn't be able to dial numbers and get someone through skype, but being able to receive skype calls on a normal phone would be great.
It may not sound like much to those of you who are huge technophiles, but the general populace likes phones much moreso than headsets.
If you save a character created from this program, it creates a file into it's/saves/ directory, under that characters name.
If you open this save with a text editor, you'll see two lines indicating the armor the character is wearing. In this case, it should be on something like armor/cloth/rags/
if you change that to armor/0/ and then save the file in the text editor, and then load it again in the character creator, the character will appear naked.
What are the chances of seeing Aurora Borealis further south, tonight?
Any way we could see it here in upstate NY? I know it happened when there were those huge solar flares a while ago...
