That is TMI...not sure if that's what killed TAN though.  There are so many other things to watch right now, too.

anybody in TAN have experience with installing floating tile floor?  tiling my bathrooms is looking like WAY too much work (requires laying dura-rock, trimming doors, etc) so i'm looking at other options.  linoleum is cheap-looking, i don't want that.  i want to be able to do a small bathroom (less than 6'x6') in one day.

ease/cost of DIY install?  isn't pergo just a good looking linoleum?  i really don't want to go the sheet flooring route.

I'm thinking having hardwood installed throughout my condo, except in the bathroom, which would be retiled. My friend last night estimated the cost at less than $3000 for the entire place.

Computer question that has been bugging me for years....

OK, someone has a moving picture (actaully, an animation - let's say it's someones animated avatar).  NOT a video.  I try to copy/paste said picture, and it is only the first frame of animation...

HOW do you steal someones moving picture?

No, to me, it looks like hardwood but comes in 8"x36" sections that sort of lock together.  I'm 99% sure it's real hard wood over MDF.

All you need is a table saw (to make it really easy) or mitre saw.

My brother put it in.  It's not bad, IMO.  I prefer tile (that's the route I went) but it's still nice and easy to do yourself.

I have seen it used in bathrooms.  Yes, wood and water don't make the perfect companions, but if you have a mat or rug and take care of it, it can last.

I have no wood flooring anywhere in my house, I just don't think it would LOOK right in a bathroom.

OK I didn't know what a floating tile floor was, so I googled it. Found www. snapstone.com and it looks really easy. It's real porcelin tile... no thinset or anything messy except for grout... I am highly interested in this now!
