Seems like the same folks play each time. This is great, but I wonder if anyone else knows about Art Tag?

Spread the word, invite folk from other forums, and don't forget to subscribe to the Art Tag announcement thread.

art tag

I like playing art tag but each time I realize i'll need to install an ftp utilility again... i wonder if that makes some folks hesitate..

prehaps i'm missing something but couldn't it just be an uncompressed jpg file that is sent to the next participant ?

a short while ago I had several low level viruses one of which was reputed to have entered thru ftp.

maybe i'm alone but I don't often have an ftp device installed.

anyhow I enjoy participating enough so it's always worth the effort and am surprised there aren't more folks involved.

thought I'd add my thoughts...

You can FTP via any web browser by browsing to the address ftp://[email protected]

It will ask you the password (which T changes each round, along with the username).

FTP won't download any file you don't ask it to, so you might have gotten an infected file via FTP, but it wasn't because of FTP.

[rondon]

ok well guess I'm off base there... altho I still don't really understand... I was aware that browsers were supposed to be capable but never really had much luck... thanks doug .. I'll keep hammering at it this time until I see how that works.

still i wonder if if this deters folks.

Interesting point Rondon. I was just working on a poll to find out why more players don't play Art Tag.

Great job to all the players!

I wonder how many of your thought you would be working on champagne glasses when I said the theme was "toast" (grin).

Fun Kitchen

Ok I feel so boring having just done utensils, this end image looks way more like my house!! heheh

Looks great!! another fun round.

A thought on the FTP thing, for Rondon,
you don't need to uninstall the ftp each time, just shut it down.
Ftps can have security problems but no more then say windows!
and most people have that running all the time!

As for FTPs just open it when you want to grab the art tag picture then shut it down til you need to upload it again.
You don't need this to be running at start up or anything, just open it when you need it
Its not possible for people to access it if its shut down, and the few moments it takes to download or upload your art tag image, you will be fine.

Also look into the options of your ftp, and disable anonymous users allowed, this means no one can enter without a password and user name that you create for them.


hope this helps, cause the more the merrier when it comes to art tag!!

ftp

Thanks kissed... actually Doug pointed out an easier way... most browsers will do ftp... Just enter this in the address window and it is fairly simple from there..

ftp://[email protected]

at about the time the virus snuck in I was using ftp for a site I was building... actually it was my browser doing the ftp ... anyhow the virus might have originated then.

yup... kitchens a mess.... maybe the resident janitor will clean it
