Talk:Web Textures
Argent, Lets try to keep these article-like, rather than discussion-like. I integrated your comments.
On the white/black list pros and cons, instead of commenting on them, put a subpoint under them to say what would mitigate that con, or just take the con out if you think it's completely bogus. Gigs Taggart 09:54, 26 January 2007 (PST)

Making page moves
Please make a request to make a page move rather than making moves by cutting/pasting (just request on User talk:Rob Linden for now...we'll come up with a more streamlined process later). It's really a pain to merge histories after a cut/paste/redirect move, and much simpler to move the history/discussion and everything in one move. Thanks -- Rob Linden 10:40, 26 January 2007 (PST)
- Turns out there is a move tab I overlooked. I'll use that from now on. Gigs Taggart 11:37, 26 January 2007 (PST)
Proxy
If a professional can't type in an IP address and port number, they aren't very much of a professional. Gigs Taggart 16:51, 26 January 2007 (PST)
have you ever used an anonymizing proxy chain? -- Argent Stonecutter 13:38, 28 January 2007 (PST)
Streaming Media
Streaming music is not specific to the "Do Nothing - Just Implement It" section. I've restored that section. Comments about the relationship between streaming media and texture bugs need to be outside any specific section. Here's my thoughts on it:
Yes, streaming media is an issue. There have been scares in the past over streaming media, and for that I've been on the side of "don't worry about it". Why?
Streaming media differs from texture bugs:
- A significant number of people do not use streaming media in SL because:
- The overhead of streaming media has an impact on performance.
- A lot of people have really bad music on their land.
- Streaming music is limited to one parcel. Texture bugs can be anywhere.
- The bandwidth costs of any large streaming-media-based collection scheme are significant.
The result is that it's a far less significant exposure: fewer people are impacted, and even for those people you can only collect data in a small number of places. -- Argent Stonecutter 13:49, 28 January 2007 (PST)
