Perhaps you should make an animated image, rather than do the impossible.

For your information, it's spelt Eugine. See beyond the underline...

This is a forum and only supports basic coding I guess. I dont think the moving text is built into the forum engine.

It's not so much that as that he's using BBCode for something that should be done in HTML. It's possible to enable a marquee tag on these forums, it's just that the admins have to do it.

Also, just a side note: When doing HTML tags:

<p align="center">lorem ipsum dolor sic amet</p>

is perfectly acceptable. You don't need to define the attributes in both the opening and closing tags.

Try moving your head from left to right. The words are sure to move if you do that.

ROFFLE MY WAFFLES.

And for the record, marquee text is the most ****ing lame thing to use on a website. If you have more than half a brain I suggest that you don't try using it on your 'site.

:D No offense of course.

PDM, you're forgetting about blinking text. Tell me that's not lamer than <marquee>.

Blinking text is the worse, mainly because it's really annoying. Marquee text isn't as bad if it's small and off to the side.

And don't play music, that's worse than any kind of text. Repeating music....

Don't even make music optional. Unless it's good music. Like stuff people listen to on their iPods. But only make that optional. Forceing people to listen to music they don't want to hear is like throwing them in a chinese prison. But worse. Much much worse.

I remember my first GS website had the Jupiter Lighthouse theme running in the background. And even I thought that was annoying.

If you're going to have music on your site, make it downloadable only. Video game remixes are the least of your worries when you're gathering information on FFXIII, etc.

That's not what he means. What you have allows people to play it if they have quick time pro. I think what he means is that you should only be able to download it onto your PC, and then play it.
