Third Eye, Frogboy is there some sign posted saying that I am completely retarded? Do you think I am completely retarded? I asked a simple question that could have resulted in a simple answer. I don't make habit of monitoring people online therefore I would not know quite how it could be done. I did start typing that I felt it was wrong and that you are screwed up if you think that you are doing any good by watching over all of us. Seriously, if you would take the time to answer one

Maybe I missed it but through all the posts I lost track in reading so I'll just ask. Has or is wincustomize going to track users? If I download 50 skins right now and come back and download 50 more in 10 minutes and do that every 10 minutes for the rest of the day how will wincustomize be able to tell if i have winblinds let alone whether I have registered it? I'm just curious is all.

Reply to The T-shirts are coming! in WinCustomize News JoeUser Forums

hah riggs that's classic. i think black or white, blue no cuz the logo is surrounded by blue (as much as i love blue) but what would it look like against yellow? hmm i would do one black and one white and perhaps a dark gray but i am not too fond of light gray. also bigger sizes would be great cuz everytime i get a large it shrinks all to hell and i hate tight ass shirts.

No Jafo I didn't say it was ok. If I even remotely stated that it was ok to do a crime as long as you are the first then I am sorry. that wasn't meant to sound that way. I guess I can see how it can be. Frogboy--I also didn't say it was right to do and throw ethics out the window...I only said it was how the world is ran most of the time. I give you Congressman Condut (sp) of the Chandra Levey case, Bill Clinton, OJ Simpson. Two of those aid in running our country. Though Clinton did

Reply to Napster and sour grapes in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Well I agree with you in some cases. OK in all. It is shameful that the world today is run by people who have no problem throwing ethics out the window. It is like Lawyers having to take an ethics course. I mean really now....think about it. But the way your article came off was that you--or Stardock is bitter because while Stardock is a big name, they aren't Napster. Not everyone knows about WinBlinds or the OD suite, but most people know about Napster even before Napster wound up in c

Actually photoshop club will offer you the "adequte apple plastic" and the ORIGINAL apple plastic. Both are good, one has so many more steps. The whole site rocks. I spent so much time there one day I couldn't believe it.

Reply to We need to give people more accolades in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Sounds like LOS.com And all I have to say is what everyone else said...don't do it. Haven't you given us enough titles as is? I mean hell why not make a special win custo site for the people with most downloads and best skins/walls and leave the rest of us here. I mean that is where this seems to be going right? Sorry if I misread it but why can't we just have admins and everyone else. Even devart has accolades to some degree but at least it is there for reason not by h

OK first...calm down! Second winamp skins need winamp. to change a skin you can click on the left hand side of the main window (you see the O -- base skin that came with winamp) you can change the skin there. ICQ needs a program called ICQ plus. It will place a PLUS symbol on the upper right hand side of the ICQ window and you can click on that and change the skins there. You must put win amp skins

First--this is the second time I have to type this cuz wincusto decided to freak out on me and log me off and erase my post when I hit submit. Moral of the story---copy your crap before you hit submit. OK So here I was today sat down in front of my pc with my credit card (visa it's where you want to be) and typed in www.wacom.com. I choose my desired intuos tablet and went to type in my details. I didn't buy the wacom today. I work my ass off for my money and if I can find

Now now I meant no disrespect. Perhaps being around devart I've managed to jump on people for going that route (skinner) too soon. I was really only curious about that idea. Hell I have obviously used skinner or I wouldn't have known about it But really I meant zero disrespect and if I sounded that way then I do apologize. these 80 hour weeks are killing me and while that is not an excuse it's

I was curious I was kinda checking the site out just now and I'm bothered by the idea that some of the skins for win amp were made with skinner. I mean it's your site and all but just thought skinner was frowned upon around these parts. Otherwise it is a nice site and you did a great job. the colors are kinda growing on me already!

I have grown to notice and accept that people around here don't comment nor seem to expect comments like they do at devart. Maybe it's me or a lame ass assumption but that is what I see. I respect everyone and their work but I did notice I lack commenting around here myself.

oh i have a Mead Notebook college ruled 5.5x8" It is real easy to do graphics on the go and I didn't have to learn it's language for writing. It holds so much data it's impossible to measure in mb of memory. I'm sporting the black one right now but next month I'll probably get a new face for it and it'll be blue I think. I tried to hot sync it with my computer once and nothing happened. I even put it in it's cradle (bookshelf) but I guess I don't have the proper cables. Maybe

Reply to Touchpad or Eraserpoint (Laptop owners) in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I have had a toshiba that used an eraser point, a fugitsu that used an eraser point and a compaq that used a touch pad. I found that my fingers aren't exactly tailored to suit the eraserpoint therefore the touchpad was my preference. Of course if I am using a laptop for any length of time and I am not away from home or the office I will indeed use a mouse. The eraser point was fine but clunky to me at times. The touchpad does indeed have a tendency of going out because the grease build
