Any preliminary design work that I may do for a potential client ALWAYS carries a copyright notice. If they decide to take my prelim work somewhere else for use it's a clear violation.

RE: Weird Windows 7 problem
You've probably already checked this, but are the attributes set to Hidden for them? If you take a look at the directory from a DOS window are they in the folders? You could also take a look at ZTree (if you're familiar with the old XTree) to find and manipulate attributes/etc.

RE: What is the professional term you use?
Depending on your state laws, you may not be able to use "Architectural" in any form (check with your state Architect's licensing board). While most of us (licensed architects) may not care, it only takes one complaint to become a BIG headache for you.
Good luck!

RE: Virtual Building project?
Sounds like a speculative project ("Spec") - develop everything you need (entitlements, zoning requirements, civil/architectural/structural/etc. engineering) prior to turning a spade of dirt, then try and sell it to someone who'll actually fund the final development and construction. Nice work if you can get it!

RE: Anyone got any experience with ZumoDrive?
I use CrashPlan - great service at a very reasonable price, and nobody (at least a year ago) could back up external drives except CrashPlan. The initial backup took quite a bit of time (based on how much of my existing (ie. YEARS of) files I wanted them to back up) but now it's very unobtrusive and I rarely even notice that it's going on in the background. Haven't had to bring anything back (yet) so I can't comment on restoring.

RE: Do we have a Joke Thread goin here?
Jack decided to go skiing with his buddy, Bob. So they loaded up Jack's minivan and headed north.
After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible blizzard. So they pulled into a nearby farm and asked the attractive lady who answered the door if they could spend the night.
'I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have this huge house all to myself, but I'm recently widowed,' she explained. 'I'm afraid the neighbors will talk if I let you stay in my house.'
'Don't worry,' Jack said.. 'We'll be happy to sleep in the barn. And if the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light.' The lady agreed, and the two men found their way to the barn and settled in for the night.
Come morning, the weather had cleared, and they got on their way. They enjoyed a great weekend of skiing.
But about nine months later, Jack got an unexpected letter from an attorney. It took him a few minutes to figure it out, but he finally determined that it was from the attorney of that attractive widow he had met on the ski weekend...
He dropped in on his friend Bob and asked, "Bob, do you remember that good-looking widow from the farm we stayed at on our ski holiday up north about 9 months ago?"
"Yes, I do." Said Bob..
"Did you, er, happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the house and pay her a visit?"
"Well, um, yes!," Bob said, a little embarrassed about being found out,'I have to admit that I did."
"And did you happen to give her my name instead of telling her your name?"
Bob's face turned beet red and he said, "Yeah, look, I'm sorry, buddy. I'm afraid I did.' 'Why do you ask?"
"She just died and left me everything."

RE: Do we have a Joke Thread goin here?
A senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he floored it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little gray hair he had left. "Amazing," he thought as he flew down I-94, pushing the pedal even more.
Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a state trooper behind him, lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, "What am I doing? I'm too old for this," and pulled over to await the trooper's arrival.
Pulling in behind him, the trooper walked up to the Corvette, looked at his watch, and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."
The old gentleman paused. Then he said, "Years ago, my wife ran off with a State trooper. I thought you were bringing her back."

Merry Christmas Roger!
That's nada! We have this house down the block. The neighborhood becomes quite busy leading up to Christmas. We came home the other night to find a bus parked across our driveway.
So you live near Disneyland?
Echoing Roger's post, may we all enjoy the spirit of peace and comfort no matter what your religious (or non-religious) beliefs are!

RE: Software for file list export
Take a look at Karen's Power Tools too (http://www.karenware.com/powertools/powertools.asp).
May not be exactly what you're looking for, but a good place to start.

RE: External HD Storage
I just powered up the USB external drive and I DID format it in NTFS. That should make things a little easier for you now, Eric!

RE: External HD Storage
I formatted a generic TB drive that I put in an external USB case through my Linksys (E3000) and had nothing but problems - it wouldn't connect, it would say it was full (of WHAT?), etc. I finally plugged the drive into my computer directly and reformatted it. Plugged it into the Linksys, brought up the Linksys configuration page and shared the drive - read it correctly (size, etc.), can read and write to it, etc. I think I did reformat it in NFTS - but don't recall (and I'm not at home to check it right now).

Very nice, Richard - thanks!

RE: Website help.
I started out with Weebly.com (free website, nice tools and templates if you don't know what to do.
After a year, I decided I wanted something more robust and bought WebPlus (http://www.serif.com) to start creating my own. Couldn't easily import the Weebly-created site into WebPlus (Weebly's stuff seems to be proprietary), so had to create it entirely in WebPlus. Not entirely painless, but WebPlus has a LOT of templates to use and their forums are just as helpful and friendly as SketchUcation's are.
I also went looking for a new host and decided on HostMonster.com. They've been very helpful, cost is one of the least around, and have had NO issues with them at all. You can see my final product at http://www.hendryarch.com.
Hope this helps, Pete - and good luck!

RE: Auntie Em Auntie Em!
My family and I send our best wishes and prayers to all those who have been - and currently are being - affected by these natural disasters. Been through a couple of earthquakes - but they don't seem to compare at all to what we're seeing now.
Stay safe, my friends!
