A quick bit of fiddling around with converting them to zip files, extract the zip and overwrite the image file found in /word/media. But it's actually going to be considerably more complicated than I originally thought as you'll have to test each image in there to check if it's the one (or one of the ones) you want to replace. The easiest way to do that would be to get one of each of the images you'll be replacing and get a hash from that, then compare that hash to the hash you'd generate as you iterate over every image in the folder. In small documents that's quite easy and quick but if you've got either a lot of documents (200 would take a while I'd guess) or the documents are big with a lot of images (or both) then I'd figure it's going to take quite a while. Getting the initial images that you want to replace is likely the harder part as you'd have to be sure you've got all the variations or it's likely to miss a few. The good thing is that Word stores the original image (only once thankfully) and then crops/resizes/whatever on top of that without editing the original file so the hash should always be the same, especially since most businesses have a central store of images they use in all their documents that would ensure the source is always the right file.

Are they .doc or .docx? I may have a way to do it using powershell if they are .docx. If it's .doc then I'm not sure how you'd do it.

I'll be on tomorrow night as tonight is D&D night. Drop me a mail in game, same name as on here.

Eve Uni were still going last I checked, they have some really good resources for anyone new to the game. RvB are lots of fun for derping around in cruiser or smaller to get a good idea of PVP, I used to join sometimes with a dozen or two frigates and see what I could do with them before they all died.

The Recruitment channel and the Corp Finder tool are both pretty useful to find a new corp, I'd probably favour the latter more than the former though.

Sisters of Eve chain used to be the usual next step, and I think where the tutorials pointed you towards. It's a chain of about 50 missions that take you through most empire space and give you a decent chunk of starting isk. Plus a nice standings boost at the end. Edit: What's the tank and dps like on them? I'd be interested to see if they are good enough to fly in level 3s and possibly 4s (if their sig is small enough). I've done 3s in assault frigs before and it's not too bad as the speed plus dps makes it able to clear them at about the same speed as a Drake.

Wormhole diving in a SB was lots of fun, I had to drop the bomb launcher for the probe launcher but you could still do a lot of damage when needed with it. And if you lost it then the cost was only about 30mil or so, not too big a hit on the wallet. I think I'm going to train up for the Svipul and Confessor, mostly because they look very nice but I might even buy and fly one at some point.

Is it the image or the board that wobbles? I've seen a few times where staff report it as image wobble but it's due to the board moving (usually due to being mounted on the same wall as a door that shuts heavily).

Yeah, I've flown Mael, Raven and Dominix before, active tank is fine for me as I only need it for long enough to kill off the majority of the incoming damage which is likely to only take a few minutes. Drones now do have a damage module like other weapon systems, I recall using them in ratting ishtars last year. I'll throw together a few fits in pyfa and figure out what I want to use, I think one of my clones has some crystals in it so I'll probably favour a shield tank to make use of those.

Only got Cal BS 2 and I think Cruise Missile 4. I'll probably try that style in the Typhoon (or whatever the Minmatar missile one is) as I've got Minmatar BS 4.

That's not too bad then, I usually focus the small stuff first to get rid of webs and scraps. Guess I'll have a play around in pyfa tonight to figure out what I want to use, my drake fit is very tanky but dps is too low to do level 4s in a reasonable amount of time. Might splash out for one of the BS, not sure which one though.

They had a pretty cool toolkit made up for the Alliance Tournament and similar events but the dev who created it (and apparently was pretty much the only person who could get it to behave properly) has left in the past few months. On a side note: anyone know if the rats in missions still target swap at random? I'm deciding what ship to get for missions and don't want to go for a drone ship or something to find that the rats keep swapping to the drones and cost me tons of money.

There has been at least one instance of a Dev showing up to a big fight to get some real time data of the lag etc and got uncloaked and alpha'd off the field by both sides.

I'd probably set a variable to check whether any of the users were invalid and then exit based on that value, something like: $InvalidUsers = 0 Get-Content $UserFile | Foreach { $User = Get-ADUser -LDAPFilter "(sAMAccountName=$_)" if ($User -eq $Null) { Write-Host -ForegroundCOlor Red "User $_ does not exist in AD." $InvalidUsers += 1 } } If ($InvalidUsers -gt 0) { Exit }

I can make a corp, got the skills for at least a few members. I'll sort it out when I get in tonight and post the name here for people to apply.

That's what two monitors are for, Civ5 on one and Eve on the other. Occasionally move over to the eve window to select a new set of asteroids to mine and press the F1 - Fwhatever keys to start mining them, go back to Civ for a while.

Discovered I'm a bit poorer than expected as I appear to have sold my Tengu at some point. Luckily I may have enough random crap (14 Geckos and some Gnosis) to be able to afford another one or some other solid mission ship to get me set up again. Do people want a dedicated Edugeek corp or should we just find some other corp and run around with them?

I was testing it with just copy/pasting your code into the ISE and running the first few lines of the function to create the object and assign basic values to it, then tried to see what output you get from running the showdialog from the two buttons. Piping it to Out-Null would mean you get no output (other than any selected folder change made), so that's why I went with assigning the output to a variable so you can check it with an if statement, you could probably ignore the variable entirely and just put the showdialog call in the if statement and check for "Cancel". I've not done enough with the GUI side of things (beyond a basic UI I built for making scripts easier to run without using the command line) so I'm not sure exactly how it's supposed to work or if there is a way to get that functionality.

I think a few of the advanced military missions involve being given a ship and having to go out and lose it in the mission. If you insure the ship you get the payout when the ship dies and it's extra money on top of the reward.

Fire sale all the things!

I kept having to organise my assets a lot, I've spent a lot of isk on Red Frog couriers just getting everything back to a central location, usually Jita, when I couldn't be bothered moving the Orca around myself.

Maybe if you were shifting billions or more isk and assets then they might care but for someone with basically nothing I doubt they'd notice. If you didn't have anything then I wouldn't worry about it, you'll make the isk back quick enough. It was just a thought in case you had more than a few million isk and could use the boost to starting up again.

In the situation that he's started again on a new account but might want the assets from the other one then I doubt it will matter much that he can't do it again. You can also petition it to get access again in case you "ran out of time" to get all the funds for the plex at the time or some other reason.

Yes but you can log in the Account Management page and then there is an option called "Hours for PLEX" which would give you 4 hours to log in to the character and move anything off there to the new one and get any details you wanted. Might be worth it just for any isk and assets you had, especially if you're starting fresh when money is very tight.

If you've still got access to the character, or remember their name then just look their info up in game and then go to Corp History.
