No Post Title.

Hey! I couldn’t think of an article title this time, so I’m just leaving it as NO POST TITLE! How original is that? Anyways I need to update my todo list soon but for now I have a basic idea of what I should be doing… I think. For one, I need to catch up with all my school work and maybe revision. Get Bankai’s site done, DMS CMS fixed up with the SHOUTcast. stats thingy, fix up my hostings and maintain the forums.
Hmm… where to start. Right, I just remembered, I was designing a layout earlier adapted from a few sources and images/stocks taken from D.A as well as SXC. Finished it up in GIMP after a few mess arounds with Photoshop. It’ll be my new and awesome hosting layout I will be using! Completely from scratch besides the pre-made and taken stocks (layout on left).
Right now, I’m listening to a bit of trance and house like I like to at 1.35am =D. Enough Meatspinning people for the day lol. And boy, the hit counter for our GNAA Last Measure is still going up even after removing the unnecessary links from Facebook, Twitter and relevant websites.
I’ll be updating my blog slightly more often once I get the time, tell me what you want to see. Besides that, I got school coming up in like 2 days? So I guess I will be a hell of a much busy (not like I’m not already busy enough). Also, I just realized this blog post taken 3 categories. Woots woots. In other news, my bro Jose is setting up a private server for MapleStory v0.62, if your interested in helping him out, please do contact him. I lack the time to support or help much so it’ll be nice if someone could. He already has a dedicated server up.
I’ll be working on my OdinMS Rankings and AresGD once again when I get the time, for now, I’m going to be ditching PHP for a while and go back to messing with Cinema4D. See you around.
The Packet Sector CMS – Ancient Stuff.

Firstly, I would like to acknownledge Cris (aka CrisTheWind), original founder of Packet Sector and The Packet Sector Networks (etc – despite the fact it wasn’t open for long), for making this CMS possible today 
Alongside with me he was helping out with the SVN commits and working with me to make this a great CMS which was unfortunetly never used 
This was a project I worked on during my times with FrozoneCMS as well as the planning of upcoming Serenade 2.0. It helped me a lot with practicing and putting into action variou jQuery techniques and skills as well as PHP (despite the fact I wasted around $5 for Assembla D:).
Just recently I have posted a small video (which didn’t turn out so good thanks to the poor render) taking a sneak peak around the CMS. You can check it out on YouTube, I have embedded the video below, enjoy.
Now instead of talking a whole lot of crap and turning your attention away I’ll just go brief to the point. When Cris and I first planned out this CMS, it seemed like a lot of work and back then I wasn’t really strong and farmilliar with OOP. One of the main guidelines on the construction of this OdinMS CMS was that it was to be attractive, User-Friendly, Browser Compatible as well as further capabilities with 3rd Party systems like SHOUTcast. The CMS is an almost full-fledged ajax powered site (including registration + login). Alongside with an extensive control panel (several control panel to be precise) as well multiple functions and features to help accessibility.
For security, the class dealt with proper error handling as well as potential SSL capabilities and a complete visitor tracking system with Geo Location. So, instead of this constant talk, I’ll just let the pictures do the talking, enjoy!

Anyways, I just uploaded some new siggy work 
Michael Jackson and Misa Campo. Check that too.
Bwahahahaha, 100MB++ from Warez-BB (Thank You!). Besides that, I’ll probably start writing and updating on SerenadeCMS or whatever tutorials soon. For now I’m working on a few new projects.
Cype Clean Up
If anyone is interested, i’m planning on restructuring and recoding the CypeCMS (OdinMS).
I might change my mind slightly later on, but this is my original intentions at the moment.
Serenade 2.0
I’m currently working with a team of 2 (INCLUDING MYSELF!) and we are rushing to redo the design and functions, specifically the Ajax side of it. Besides this, we are hoping to get a public viewing of it soon on a unique server you will see 
Bankai Hotel
Yes, this will be my first public Habbo Hotel retro I MAY open soon. Its going to be a part of BankaiStory and there will be loads of cool features (which I’m currently working on). Hopefully, most bugs and possible exploits are not present after my several fix ups.
My Radio
Its gone for the moment! *cries* I will try to get it back somehow Then I’ll get a few DJs and get it started for real with the panel and everything!
My Web Hosting
Argh! Web hosting has been a pain in my butt recenetly, spent $2 on a web hosting plan realizing that the response from the staff team took more than 24 hours and provided me with a crapped up Apache. The crontabs aren’t even working and it sees all my servers in WHMCS as offline eventhough they are online.
I’m so glad Neohosts’ AltusHost server is back up, now my web host site is online again! *happy*.
I back’d up everything just in case.
These are all the updates for now.
I’m pretty occupied lately and have a few more work to do every night before I sleep (If I sleep).
I’m still awake at the moment and its nearly 12pm. So I will be going off soon. Thanks for reading though =D
I love people who actually read my blogs lol.
Fuck my ISP… Its on!

Ever had one of those days where you totally just hate the connection speed of your internet or the constant downtimes and your 100% definite its the damn ISP’s fault again? Well fuck them. Lets make use of them to our fullest potential. If your internet service has a capped bandwidth, I do urge you to use as much of it as possible (to the max is preffable), if yours is one of those uncapped and unmetered ones, time to go hardcore.
This is in no proper or ranked order.
If your usage in GB is not above 80MB per DAY; you seriously need to use your internet more, or why pay for it?
Lets use our internet service PROPERLY.
- To use your Internet properly, you should had (or at least in the past), at least download one TORRENT. If you did, congratufuckinglations. Time to crank up your uTorrent, BitTorrent or whatever and put another 10 downloads into the que.
- There’s no point getting an internet service from an ISP if you don’t use it for 21st Century technologies such as IM (Instant Messaging such as MSN), Networking (I.E. Facebook, MySpace, Twitter…) or maybe even VoIP (I.E. Skype).
These services consumes your bandwidth too! - Run servers on your computer. One of easiest way to consume as much as bandwidth as you can is hosting servers. From Web Servers to Game Servers, its up to you. If you have a powerful computer and a nice Uptime/Downtime, time to open up your own hosting services and see your damn ISP gasps over the blazing high bandwidth usage (just don’t get caught!).
- Download as much shit as you can before you sleep. If your not the type that torrent, it won’t hurt to drag yourself to Warez websites and download some cracked applications or softwares. I highly discourage using illegal software, but at times it won’t hurt to cue a few 1~10 downloads at once? =] And leave it on even when your sleeping…
- DDOS attack! Ever saw a website you dislike? Or perhaps someone you want to get back at. Well as long as they have a completely weak shit web host or prevention measures, DDOS them to death! And see their website going down like the Hidenburg (this does consume a lot of bandwidth overtime!).
- YouTube… LimeWire… SHOUTcast. One thing I love about the internet now is that, its like everything in one! (besides being able to eat lol). Another way you can make good use of your internet is to watch YouTube videos or make downloads in LimeWire (as stated by #1 and #4). Or even managing your own Audio/Video streaming site or server (E.g. SHOUTcast. As mentioned in #3). Video/Audio streaming consumes loads of bandwidths.
- If your a guy, this is the best part. Porn. Yes. Nothings better than burning your bandwidth with entertainment; and there is no better way to do this than streaming one or perhaps downloading? (This is basically the same as 6). According to Alexa, in Malaysia (2008 I think), Pornhub was one of the most visited websites. =]
- Online Games. Oh boy… I recall the days when I played online games, the amount of sent/received bytes were off the chart (mostly MMORPGs and maybe even 3D games). If your not an MMO fan, just play Multiplayer FPS games like Counter Strike or even try out Battlefield, or for horror fans out there, you can go for Left 4 Dead (Haha, forgot to mention Warcraft – Dota).
I guess thats all the things you can do for now.
So fuck them over, and make proper use of the internet, even if its browsing eBay or a community forum.
Just Do It. And do it… A LOT.
Right now I have used around: 412MB.
In 10 hours.
Lets be Online DJs!

Alright guys, since I’m coming to the end of my exams, lets make a AEROSOL Exclusive
Well, last time… I got bored. So I decided to setup my own SHOUTcast. which basically is an online radio allowing you to listen to other people streaming or perhaps if you wish to stream yourself you would need a server.
So today I’ll run over the fundamentals of a SHOUTcast. server setup, and a streaming in a shoutcast.
And if you ever consider running your own SHOUTcast. at least you would know.
Just to mention it first, most SHOUTcast. hosting out there are quite pricey, it does exist and it is useful to get one, however its not very cheap, and you’ll have to consider your audience group and size beforehand. SHOUTcast. uses a lot of RAM too! And the quality of the music depends on your internet speed as well as your RAM.
The audio is streamed ahead, so if you stop streaming, there will still be some audio streaming for a while, there is a delay basically.
What can you do with SHOUTcast.?
- Map a hostname onto your IP address hosting the SHOUTcast. and turn it into a player for blogs, websites and more!
- Play your own music and be your own DJ! There are loads of applications out there adaptable with SHOUTcast. including VirtualDJ, and if you have a mic, you can start talking!
Please note you will need the following before we proceed:
- WINAMP Player (Any version is fine). – http://www.winamp.com/player/
- SHOUTcast. WINAMP Plugin – http://yp.shoutcast.com/downloads/shoutcast-dsp-1-9-0-windows.exe
- SHOUTcast. Server (DNAS Application) – For Windows
Installation:
1. Install WINAMP player first then close it if WINAMP is opened.
2. Install the SHOUTcast. Radio DSP Plug-in.
3. Install The SHOUTcast. Server (DNAS Application).
4. Close Any Of Them That Are Opened.
Configuration:
1. Configuring The DNAS Application (Server)
- Open It Up, If “Windows Security Alert” appear saying sc_serv.exe is block, unblock it. Click Unblock.
- Click Edit Config. Find “Password=changeme” using Ctrl-F, replace changeme with your desired password.
- You can also edit “MaxUser=32″ to the desired amount of users you want listening, please read the description above this config though, it states the negatives of setting more users.
- Save it and restart the DNAS Application.
2. Configuring WINAMP to broadcast!
- Change the skin of your WINAMP to something you can move around easily with, I like Bento.
- Click Options -> Preferences (Ctrl-P), On the tree menu above the Close button, scroll down till you see Plug-ins and DSP/Effect. Click on that.
In there you should see Nullsoft SHOUTcast. Source DSP or anything like that. Double click on it.
- On that menu you just opened, click “Output”.
If the server is hosted on your computer, leave the host “localhost” as it is.
Change the password field and click Connect.
- If your server is online (DNAS Application) you should be able to play music on your WINAMP and have it sent to your SHOUTcast. DNAS, in which you can use snippets or .pls files to let others here the music your playing or what your saying! An internat radio station!
- You can edit preferences like the server description under “Yellowpages”, the “What I’m Listening To” on MSN for people who listens to your radio will be this description.
- Feel free to move around and change settings were required. Try not to mess with the encoding though.
And there you have it, done.
How-To’s:
- Transfer Music?
Drag music onto Winamp or go to file -> add media.
- How do I speak?
Click Input on the SHOUTcast. Source console, change Winamp (recommended) to your microphone.
I’ll be updating in the future with integration with VirtualDJ!
Its basically like using WINAMP, except with VDJ.
P.S. Don’t forget to port forward if your using a modem or else people can’t hear you!
