It depends I like to be able to do everything via mouse when the keyboard is out of reach. However, if the keyboard is on my lap, I like to take advantage of the speed and shortucts it offers over hunting and pecking with the mouse

Hmm...Why bother? I guess it depends on how you want to surf the web. I don't want to have just one web page open as you say. I always have more than one web page open and hopping between them in the form of invidual Interent Explorer instances is extremely awkward Couple small things missing from this iRider. thing. It doesn't display an incon in the addressbar so there's no way to drag the current page to the Links toolbar. Maybe there's some other way to do it, but I had to fire
I don't know th elinks offhand. Do a search for Mac or OSX in the messageboard saerch above. There's been threads in the past that should have the links to Mac/OSX dxthemes
I'm still playing with the browser and am liking it more and more as I use it. Yeah, I had to change a couple of the default settings as it was opening new browser page for every click. I do wish it had user configurable popup suppression. As for skinning. I don't want it. I hope it still uses standard Windows controls so that WindowBlinds can still skin it
BTW, regarding $30 for a browser: it depends. That doesn't seem unreasonable to me if a product has features that I find appealing. Heck I paid $30 for Netcaptor years ago and never regretted it. Granted, that was before all the other tabbed browsers started springing up all over the place
Argghhh. I wish we had an edit comments feature. I meant to add that though I prefer the traditional favorites menu for quick access to favorties, I do see the value in the folder / thumbnail-entry navigation approach for more intense surfing / favorites management
Thanks for responding to us I really really like the thumbnail images organized in a threaded fashion. I like to have alot of pages open and with tabs, they end up displaying in a multiple tab rows. And when you click a tab, that row comes to the forefront which is really confusing since it throws off my sense of "tab location". The threaded thumbnail list gets around this. Sorry, but I st
I've been trying it as well. You can change the surf-ahead feature from the right mouse click to the middle mouse click, which will gain you your right click context menu back. Its supposedly supposed to be memory friendly. You can set how much memory it will use (haven't played with that yet). The threaded sidebar is at first awkward, after being used to tabs, but after awhile I got used to it and think it's a better paradigm than the standard tabbed approach. It really lends
Zodiaq, in the case of Winstyles, the short answer is depends. Here's my understanding of permissions and Winstyles (and I could be wrong) Winstyle themes come in two formats: an xptheme file (which is really a zip of all the skins), and a suite file, which is just an empty file that contains the URLs to the online skins. In the former case, no matter what, permission is definitely required since the skins are being redistributed. In the latter case, technically permi
You can do a search on google and look for tutorials for whatever software you end up using. In addition here's some links: PaintShop Pro tutorials: http://www.pinoy7.com http://www.psplinks.com There's also a threads on this board that have links to tutorials for various programs, including Photoshop and PaintShop Pro https://www.wincustomize.com/msgboard.asp?BID=WCS&id=165295 https://www.wincustomize.com/browser/msgboard.asp?BID=WC&id=106595
Yes the shareware version is different than the registered/full version. Once you purchase it, you'll need to download the full version. Be sure to uninstall the shareware version first before installing it though
Thanks for the update! It's great! As a suggestion, In the future, I suggest the installer does something like default to C:\pixtudio\UniverseMetal and C:\pixtudio\Logika as I ran into the same issue chuckyboy had. What I ended up doing was installing one suite, copying the subdirectory elsewhere, then install the other suite
The only problem I forsee is that people coming here for the first time for help are going to post in the general wincustomize section rather than the help section simply because they'll overlook it and post to the most popular / default board
The download works for me here: https://www.stardock.com/products/skinstudio/downloads.asp which really directs you to download.com [Message Edited]
I'm pretty sure they were divided into 3 separate download files
It seems the zip file for it has a sample. It looks like a standard INI file type configuration. The comments section for it in the object dock section seems to have alot of help and examples of people using it. You could try looking over these comments and see if that helps https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=29&SkinID=703
I still like MMJB and I never had any problems with the music library transfers so I don't understand what you guys mean. Isn't it just a point to a directory and all the fils in there are there? No. MMJB, like Media Jukebox and Windows Media Player uses a database to hold the media library. However, MMJB's media library is slllllooowwwww (at lea
Brad saw this thread and we talked a bit about any of his cunning plans for OM. We are considering streaming to be part of it. This is not a promise, because there are more features we want to add and my time is limited. Hey, that's cool, MadIce. It would be nice to have (as I've been addicted to internet radio lately) but I understand that ther
Winamp3 while pretty was slow and ponderous . The new Winamp2 was better, but it's media library is terrible and if used, results in a massive increase of the process size. RealPlayer - slow and ponderous as well. MusicMatch - ditto. And while it only took a couple of minutes to import 1100 ripped CDs into Windows Media Player and Media Jukebox, it took nearly 2 hours for MusicMatch to import it. Windows Media Player - alright, a bit slow when dealing with a la
At the most minimal end, notepad. At something really fance, Dreamweaver. Somwhere int the middle, Homesite. (though its gotten a bit pricey recently)
Create a new object on the dock. Go to its dock properties. Now, either for the link value, enter the folder name, like C:\program files for the link field and leave the arguments field blank Or specify explorer.exe as the link value, and put the folder name in the arguments field
I assume you downloaded the CursorXP program. If you haven't done so, you can find a link to it at the top of the CursorXP library webpage if you click CursorXP on the left hand side of this page. (You can do the same in order to get links to the shareware versions of WindowBlinds, DesktopX and so on, by going to the appropriate library page as KarmaGirl said). Once you've installed CursorXP, you can download CursorXP skins and just double-click it to install. You can switch between you
I don't know if this is the same problem, but I had a similar issue once. It looked like I was missing the WindowBlinds\WBconfig.exe program (either I accidently deleted it, or the installation was screwed up). I had to manully unzip the skins. I re-installed WB which gave me back my WBConfig.exe program and all was well again. WBConfig.exe is the program window blinds program that get's launched when you click the WB sys tray icon or press the WindowBlinds button in your Appearances ta
I posted the answer on how to set up My Computer here: https://www.wincustomize.com/msgboard.asp?BID=WC&id=157361#162274
Yes, those cpu meters, calendar, clock and weather windows are really just one app: samurize. It's website is here: http://www.samurize.com but I couldn't connect to it just now. I'ver never used samurize so I can't tell you much about it, unfortunately.
