Reply to New Year's resolution for Firefox: Grow in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Hmmm, let's see... 90% of computers use "non-standard" browsers and the other 10% are "the standard"? Sounds like somebody needs to revisit standards and stop being so goddam stubborn. Programmers are sick of everyone playing their own game. Yes, standards are good but seeing that 90% of the market is not abiding by them, the standards creators should adopt and reformulate. Why go against the grain and try to redefine stuff that the market has already

Oh... and don't get me started on Netscape... I have been web developing for a long while now and still the biggest pain in tha a$$ is to make everything work for the gazillion of browsers out there. i.e. different browsers translating HTML, JS, etc differently.

Such a tempting topic... Yummm... 1. As SkinStudio mentioned, you can make IE just as secure. The problem is, out of the box, IE does come out less secure than FireFox. But then again, FireFox is less compatible. I'll vote for more compatibility and more care during browsing. 2. @Kobrano: HOLY CRAP! "A mere hour of web browsing with IE is all you need to have a half dozen pieces of spyware/adware

Error logging out from My Account page in WinCustomize Site Issues JoeUser Forums

When I choose the logout button in the upper right when I'm in the My Account page, I receive an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error. Looks like somebody is not checking to make sure a user is logged on before displaying user info. Tsk tsk tsk... It's so fun to be on the other side of the software flame thrower every now and then. <im

As long as the patients will not be driving, it's OK. I have a grand idea. Let's make all drugs legal. In the short term, there will be a huge spike in ODs and numbnuts running off roads, and all that schtuff, but after a while the useless bunch of weak DNAs will be eliminated from the gene pool and humanity will be better off. So, go ahead Steve, puf

Reply to Please make a cool Xmas skin! in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

You may want to provide some details on what kind of a skin you are looking for and what would make it different enough so that it's worth the effort. It's not easy to come up with too many christmas skins. Snow, ornaments, what else? Elves maybe?

Reply to Invisible Radio Button in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

Thanks! It was the silly Translucency checkbox. Always wondered what that did since it never seemed to change anything in the previews. Apparently it makes your buttons and such disappear!

Have you even looked at the website of these guys? Total numbnuts... Clearly they have as broad a vision of the software industry as a horse pulling a carriage with those pads around the eyes. (whatever they are called) And, please, what next? Nominate Pong for being the best game? Yeah, it had its place but let's move on to better stuff, shall we? This kind of stuff isn't even worth talking and tiring your finger about. I say let them do whatever they wish in their li
