Thank you all. It has been quite a ride since I started skinning almost 3 years ago now. Hard to believe. And I really do TRY to participate in the message boards, but you are right... I'd rather skin. To Skin, or not to Skin... That is the question! Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the buttons and arrows...

Still using XXCalc....
Nice! IT does look good with the themes! Thanks LEO!
Nice sets!
There is nothing ObjectBar can do that DesktopX can't, so I've never seen the use for ObjectBar. (For the uses I would have for it, of course. I know it is a powerful application.) As far as Nextstart, I used to be a die hard user, but then I grew up, so to speak, to DesktopX again. I can do far more with DesktopX than with Nextstart. I used to run them both, but why have two programs that overlap abilities running on the same computer?
Contacted Tripod.
A hard thread to follow here, but my two cents: Only if you have been living in box for the last three years will you have missed that almost nothing about the internet is free these days. My business was a DOT-Com casualty that I am only now managing to re-invent and rebuild. Find some way to charge your downloaders. I liked the idea of viewing only, and downloading only if you are a subscriber. The idea of dividing the proceeds with the skinner *sounds* nice in theory (considering
Oh my goodness, it's been well over a year... Now I'm going to have to make good on updating my last few themes to Nextstart 3. Hmmmm.... now if I just didn't have this crazy job so I would have more time for skinning..... Wink Wink.
I'll get my wife to write them a letter in Korean. I'm a little rusty with the language. Enough to be able to get around the site well enough, but not enough to write a letter, though.
Alot of my stuff over there.... the even took the time to edit my name and plugs out of the screenshots. Such work.
That's why I "retired" some months ago. It's just so much work, and truely so little appreciation sometimes. But then I remodeled my home office, and I started to change a few things, little by little, to match my new office color scheme. From there, it just ballooned into some large monster that will never be finished. Or so it seems. I do manage to do most of my skinning at work, and while the wife is asleep. My insomnia is everyone else's gain, I guess. Lately I haven't been all that m
The Nissan Ken an Barbie one tops the list! You are so right, Chickie! We just had this discussion at my house the other day. Others in the top were The Snickers "Batman" commercial, the Snickers "Hey, that's great, but who are the Chefs? Great Googly Moogly!" commercial. Several of the M&M commercials.
0 icons on the desktop, thank goodness. I use DesktopX to keep everything I need one click away.
I couldn't live without Photoshop. But then again, I have been a photoshop user since version 2.something. Scary, eh? So once you get used to something, you can never go back. Besides, I always say, you get what you pay for....
That's an AWESOME color, HUS! Looks really good!
I've had this problem when starting out new skins. What fixed this problem for me was skinning the systray expand/contract arrow. Wierd, eh?
I'll get on updates once the Indemnity series has been posted.
Trillian Pro all the way. Not a single bug has appeared for me.
WB: 1) Indemnity by Chadamus I only use one WB at a time, and once I make the change, I rarely switch back and forth. DX: 1) Indemnity by Chadamus 2) Colony by Chadamus So now I sound like greyhaze... I'd have to say that I only use my own skins in the long run also. That's what got me into skinning in the first place. Since no one had *exactly* what I wanted, I started
Didn't know there was anything wrong with outlook express....
Sweet! It's on now... time to move up the list.
Finished up a set of icons and pngs for zMUD. Should be available shortly...
Nice additions. How soon until multi-monitor support?
Hmmm... I'll need to check that out. Thanks Phoon.
I have a feeling you are talking about me here... I generally freely give permission to use the Anytheme DX icon packs in people's uploaded themes if they only ask first, and include a author credit in their description. However when an author doesn't ask permission, and doesn't even say from who he got the objects from... I get a little annoyed. As you can imagine, when a person puts alot of work into a huge effort such as that, and then someone else takes credit, that's not right. A
