I just did the most degrading thing i have done this week. Im at work and no-one here is tochnologically ept.... so they get me to solve all their problems... They have recently started adding irritating noises to their computers for mail notification and today it fell to me to find one for Jason. But not just any irritating noise... oh no, the most irritating. THAT ******** CRAZY FROG s**t!!!! Argh.... teh humiliation nearly killed me stare Anyway.. it took me nearly six hourse to do this. First i had to find it... for teh computer... free... NOT A RINGTONE. gonk I finally managed this. I tried to put it on a disc.... the disc decided to work in the computer... but not in Jasons when i went to put it in... so i had the bright idea to email it. Now the only computer here with teh internet is not hooked up to the company network so i couldn't send it through an internal message. Having determined that teh set email for this computer doesn't work.... i tried to send it through my own email. First the attachtment didn't work... when i finally got it to work, the email didn't send. Now thoroughly annoyed, i decided once again to try the set email carrier... and it decided to work.... much to my irritation, the previous email id sent from my own carrier managed to show up to even though i had been sent a 'this message cannot be sent" message. Anyway.. now armed with two copies of that deplorable frog song, i saved it to desktop, entered the control panel and then the sounds menu and was met by another obstacle, the ******** file was a MIDI, not a god damned .wav file as required... I almost killed someone. Not to be thrown off now that i had spent my whole ******** morning on this i decided to convert the file on teh internet computer and resend it. Not being equipped with a converter i decided to download one and was met with a whole new set ob problems. The first converter i did couldn't (because it was a trial copy) convert more than 60 of sound.... stare so i downloaded another one and shock horror (because it was a trial copy) it couldn't convert more than 60 second. scream Needless to say i was annoyed.... So for my last try i looked it up on a trouble shooters forum.. and found the answer to my problem... OPen the file and record it using the widows sound recorder..... ******** YEAH. On teh second try it decided (much to my relief and to the relief of my employer who was worried that i was going to throw the freaking computer out the ******** window) to do what i wanted. I then resent it to Jason (first try) and set it up.... and ow it is the most ******** annoying thing ever, but i still feel quite proud of myself. xp
