people still seem to think that if they use uxtheme they don't use *any* memory or resources, which is just nonsense. there doesn't seem to be an easy way to convince them.
in what way is avant better?
apparently it performs a DDOS attack on sco.com. this is the first ever virus i'd ever willingly install.
reminds me of the whole iconphile situation...
i would agree with the joeuser article.
PlayTime: if their computers are too slow to run DesktopX, they'll be too slow to run the standalone exe. The standalone exe is DesktopX AND the object all in one. That's all it is. I don't know where people got the idea that they would be any less resource intensive.
geeps, you missed the point entirely. it's not intended for people to buy for desktop customization. the free version and enhanced version are for desktop customization, and both of those are under your pricetag. the pro version is intended for companies to buy to make professional applications. it's of just about no use to a home user anyway. just run your objects in desktopx and it will be no different.
WB skins Firebird on my system...
also, breaking a copyright is not considered stealing in the eyes of the law, despite what the copyright holders want you to think. it's considered to be just what it is: breaking a copyright.
the artist gets approximately 10 cents for each iTunes song I buy. the other 90 cents are split between apple and the recording industry, neither of which I'm particularly interested in supporting. i have purchased from emusic in the past. the artist got 50% of the profit before they switched to the subscription model. i'm not sure how that works now.
100% agreement with Brad.
Did they show any screenshots of Aero? I'm curious as to what it looks like. The VS in the screenshot is called Slate and I think it's the ugliest thing MS has come up with since Win31. by the way, the dx link is messed up.
um, it can't get fragmented so badly that it can't find the pieces. it has tables that say where the pieces are.
This is very cool indeed. Will it be able to take existing ICO files and export them to PNG as well? How about PSD support?
The same people also make RealAlternative. Both of these "apps" are really cool and useful, but I'm pretty sure they both violate the licensing agreements of Real and Quicktime because they distribute the codec dll files from them.
none of my friends use anything except AIM so i don't bother with the rest.
you should have seen most of the IP icons; only the folder icons don't change with an alternate shell.
just a thought, the wording on point number 4 seems to be awkward and i don't think it actually says waht it's trying to say. you might want to re-word it before using it on any official press releases or anything.
also, the site seems to be dead.
Quite nice. The borders are a little thick for my tastes though.
Hyatt and Blake (the main phoenix programmers) are busy with other things at the moment. Hyatt is working on Safari (Apple's new web browser), and Blake just got accepted to college. Pinkerton and PCH are doing some work on Px right now, but it's moving a lot slower than it was. I think they're still hoping to get .6 out sometime this month though.
That's odd. I've never had it render a compliant page wrong, and i've never had it render WC wrong.
IE on mac is more standards compliant than IE on PC, so it's going to have to be slower. IE on PC cheats in several places to do things faster. I don't think Safari itself is skinnable, but there's already a Safari skin out for Phoenix (my personal favorite web browser for any OS, it's really fast).
yeah, I expected more icons and a skin that doesn't still have pieces from Luna (look at the combo box button).
