IMPORTANT!!!
WHY CAN’T I SEE or PREVIEW CARDS? While PsychoDairyFarm has gone to great lengths to make sure our site functions from all browsers..we are aware that some users on Internet Explorer are not able to view cards. This could be due to possibly these things:
- Microsoft has updated your security settings in Internet Explorer
- You have a virus blocker which has decided to change your ability to view some content on web pages.
- You have installed a browser plugin which can block some content or have two plugins which conflict with each other.
- You are running a "web accelerator" which blocks "heavier content" to make your internet "seem" faster to load.
These items above can conflict with Active X, Flash plugins or Acrobat files in your Browser. Please CLICK HERE To learn more about why your browser may be blocking Flash! AND HERE (Adobe Plugin News "Flash"!) Also if you are using Extensions and Add-ons in Firefox..CLICK HERE!

Why is the sky blue?
The atmosphere around the Earth is largely made up of two colorless gases: oxygen and nitrogen. Red and blue light reacts very different from each other to oxygen. Because the wavelength of blue light is roughly the size of an atom of oxygen, blue light interacts with the oxygen and is scattered by it, while red light, with its longer wavelength, goes right pass the oxygen atoms. If the Earth had no atmosphere, the sun?s light would travel directly from the Sun in a straight line towards our eyes and we would see the Sun as a very bright star in sea of blackness. But because the Sun?s blue light is scattered by the oxygen in the atmosphere, blue light from the Sun enters our eyes from all sorts of different angles and we see the entire sky as blue. The atmosphere scatters violet light even more effectively, but our eyes are more sensitive to blue. Wherever we look towards the sky, some light is bouncing off an oxygen atom and entering our eyes, making the sky appear to be blue.

What is a COWPIE?
Not to be confused with Hummus. You can see the Wikipedia definition here: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Cowpie
But in brief: Cowpie (or cow pie, cow pat, cow patty, pasture patty, meadow muffin, or cow chip) is a sometimes used colloquialism for bovine feces. It usually appears in a rounded pile. The term has lent itself to a variety of other activities. Bovine bingo is sometimes called "cowpie bingo", and cowpie poker is a stud poker variant. Cow pie tossing events have been held in a few locales, though it is quite thoroughly dried first.

What is the difference between brown and white chicken eggs?
There really is no difference in either flavor or nutritional value. The only difference is that brown eggs are laid by rust-red chickens, such as the Rhode Island Red, while white eggs come from white chickens, most notably the White Leghorn, which makes up about 90% of the North American egg-laying chicken population.

How do I make fresh homemade butter?
We highly recommend that you use organic Heavy Cream. Put in Cream into blender or mixer. Blend until you have Whipped Cream..Then continue on hand whipping for another 10 minutes. The butter will occur suddenly..Use a spatula to keep pressing on butter squeezing out as much moisture as you can..keep working it into a ball, squeezing out excess moisture, rinse under cold water and refridgerate. Fantastic on homeade popcorn!
WHY CAN’T I SEE or PREVIEW CARDS?
When I try to view a card I get a plain screen.
This is usually caused by security settings on your computer which are preventing the display of ActiveX objects. Please follow the instructions below.
AOL USERS
Go to AOL keyword Preferences, then select Internet Options, then proceed as for Internet Explorer below.
INTERNET EXPLORER
Click Tools, then Internet Options. Select the Security tab. In the lower half of the window, if you see a slider bar, make sure that it is set to Medium. If you do not see a slider bar, but instead you see the words "Custom Level", then either click Default Level to restore the security settings to the normal ones; or click the Custom Level button, find the entry marked "Run ActiveX Controls and Plugins", and make sure that it is marked "Enabled".
OTHER BROWSERS
If you are using any other browser, please consult the Help pages for your browser to determine how to ensure that plugins are allowed to run.
THIRD-PARTY SECURITY SOFTWARE - NORTON, McAFEE etc.
If you have any third-party security software (e.g. Norton, McAfee, Zone Alarm) then these products may also be preventing the display of ActiveX Controls. Please check the help for your product to find out how to prevent the product from interfering with the Flash Player. (Note: lots of people have Norton or McAfee anti-virus programs: these do not have any effect on the Flash Player and should be left running under all circumstances.)
Problems using PC computer to view a card
Our animated e-cards use a software program called "Flash" which provides the means of displaying animated graphics with music. Flash is currently the only widely-supported tool for showing web-based animations, and without it, these cards could not exist.
The Flash Player software is a product of a large US software company called Macromedia. The player is automatically included with all common browser programs, including Internet Explorer and Netscape. Normally therefore, you should not have to download the player in order to see the animation.
To resolve this problem please follow the steps below carefully.
First, clear your browser cache
Your browser may have received a bad copy of the animation - e.g. if there was a communications error on the Internet - and if so, it may have "cached" the bad copy - i.e. stored it in its internal memory. To clear the browser cache, follow the instructions below, according to the browser program you are using.
AOL USERS
Go to AOL keyword Preferences, then select Internet Options, then Delete Files.
INTERNET EXPLORER
Click Tools, then Internet Options, then click the Delete Files button.
NETSCAPE
Click Edit, then Preferences, then Advanced, then Cache, then Clear Disk Cache.
Now try to view the card again. If it works now, please click here. Otherwise, please continue below.
Disable any web accelerators
If you are using a web accelerator to speed up download of websites, disable it. If you don't know what a web accelerator is, you almost certainly haven't got one, so ignore this step.
Update your copy of the Flash Player
You may have an out-of-date copy of the Flash player. To load the latest version, please click here and follow the instructions on the window which will pop up.
When the installation is complete - it should only take a minute or less - try to view the card again. If it works now, please click here. Otherwise, please continue below.
If the installation does not complete correctly, please read the following help pages from the Macromedia Flash website:
* Flash Player will not install after updating Windows XP to Service Pack 2 - http://www.macromedia.com/go/tn_19479
* Common Macromedia Flash Player Install Issues - http://www.macromedia.com/go/tn_19166
Delete and re-install the Flash Player
It is possible that your existing copy of the Flash Player is damaged. Reinstalling, as in the previous step, will not necessarily fix this problem: you must completely remove the player first, and then re-install.
Removal of the Flash Player is quite simple because the authors of Flash, Macromedia Inc., have created a program which you can download to do it for you. As you proceed, please make absolutely certain that you received a message to confirm that the Flash Player was removed from your computer. If you do not get that message then it has not been removed and these instructions will not work.
When you have removed the Flash Player, re-install it by clicking here and following the instructions on the window which will pop up.
Now try to view the card again. If it works now, please click here. Otherwise, please continue below.
Check your security settings.
The Flash Player for Internet Explorer is a type of plug-in called an "ActiveX Control", and it is possible to set up Internet Explorer security settings to prohibit ActiveX Controls. For other browsers, similar security options may apply. In addition, you may have third-party Internet security software which is preventing the Flash Player from working.
If none of these solve your problem..we highly suggest installing Firefox as there are NO compatibility issues reported.
Once installed you may have to reinstall the Flash Plugin to Firefox.
