Reply to Banners ads and paying for the site in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

What, I'm still waiting for a Ford Focus to scream across my monitor! Seriously though I have started paying for more things online in the last year that it is almost seeming normal now. A few years back is was unthinkable and now it is becoming a standard model. Instead of goodies how about dedicated bandwidth and server load for the paying customers. By the way what happened to the hitbox counter at the bottom?

Crazy, They are probably in refererence to the release candidates that are available on Object Desktop. Currently up to 1.1rc16. As was mentioned it should be finished soon.

Reply to WinStyles! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I have it and really like it, especially the .suite concept. I think it realy has potential as it matures. I find it hard to believe that anything Winstyles did would warrant the need for a full format. In my use of it, it has never made any more significant changes than the individual programs it supports. I really wonder which is going to prevail the .suite or the .xptheme!

Reply to If Wincustomize had a new look in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I really like the way the site looks now. Ever since the tables started sizing themselves to fit the window it has been much better. The Easter theme is nice too by the way.Some things I think would be nice. 1) Faster is always better! 2) An Advanced Search page. I would love to be able to search more than one library for a specific topic. Being able to pick specific liraries would be better. 3) One of those cool counters like you have at Pixtudio that shows how many users are l

Reply to lousy service from Pixudio & BMT Micro... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Have you checked that card yet Wayne. After 3 days it should show on your unbilled activity. Maybe you mistyped your email address, maybe your card was rejected, maybe BMT really does suck. I didn't have any problem with them but things DO happen. Why don't you hold off on your tirade until you can confirm the charge is on your account.

Reply to Desktop icon font color change? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

What you need to do is change the color of your desktop to Black. Cobalt uses a light grey desktop color, hence the black font color. Dark desktops get a white font color and light ones get a black font color. You can use the Appearance tab to make a temporary change. If you want to make it permanent use Skinstudio or the Advanced Settings to edit.

Reply to "Peer" Ratings in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

David - Not to make things worse but wouldn't it have to have been rated a "1". If it was uploaded at "6" which I presume it was, to be knocked down to three would require a one vote. Hmmmm, troubling indeed for a very nice work. Seems as though it has bounced back to a "6"...

Reply to Object Bar in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about, but... Excel groups within itself so it should only show one instance on the task bar whether you are using Object Bar or not. Individual spreadsheets are opened within Excel, you can minimize the spreadsheet within Excel to see what I mean. Did this help or am I way off base?

Reply to Downloading to "Temp" vs. "Save As" in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Jim, I am using the latest release of WB (3.2rc3). Once the skin is downloaded to the temp folder it shows up in WB configuration skin list. So it seems to be working properly. Now if you are looking for the file, on 98SE mine is located at: C:\WINDOWS\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 To find yours click on the desktop and hit F3. Change the "Look in" to C: and "files named" to *.wba If you don't like the auto open feature you can always us
