Reply to MySpace is a disease in Internet WinCustomize Forums

I have a MySpace, and only about 30 friends and family total...all people I've met personally and interact with quite regularly. I do hate the number of ads on the site, and customizing it is hard to do (I had to edit CSS layout myself to get something that looked ok)...as far as security...people that join the site need to realize that it's not their own personal journal to let the world know every detail of their life, that will only put them

I wasn't too confident it would support per pixel in WB5, being only 64mb I wonder how much the memory on the video card has to do with supporting WB5 features -- I use an nVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 with only 32 MB memory with no issues. On another note, it's good to hear that you got it all

Weird...now I can see the shields again...but if I mouse over them all it says is "click to see awards." If I click that then it tells me the browswer was trying to connect to something it could not connect to.

Reply to Size means everything sometimes in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Yes, I agree -- while I can change my resolution, it appears fuzzy at anything below 1280x800. In addition, it's widescreen so it's hard to find logons and desktopx themes that work. It would be excellent to have the screen resolution included!

I do trial and error This one here worked well on my widescreen:https://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SID=1&SkinID=5005&LibID=26 but mine is only 1280x800...but since there was no effect on the logon I guess it's worth a try also a few of the logons by this guy have worked for me:https://www.wincustomize.com/info.aspx?acid=2214242<br

@ Carl[c242] : I already had 3.1, my question was more of an unsure answer to Libby's question, but thanks for the information anyway (I'm pretty sure it was useful to someone though, I'm serious about that too -- no joke).

I have confirmed that my alma mater is not the first amateur group (several community theaters have performed it), but from what I can tell they are among the first group of High Schools to perform it.

My old High School (not too old, I graduated in 2004) is performing Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical CATS! Check it out: http://www.lynchburg.org/schools/GlassTheatre/index.htm Now, to try and verify if they are the first amateur group I did a Google search. I found one high school that claimed to do it back in May of 2005, and they provided some pictures, but I couldn't really confirm it. In addition, the official website says

If you mouse over the sheilds or diamond it lists it in the status bar at the bottom of your window (assuming you have it turned on) Maybe I have it turned off?...I don't see the shields anymore (I used to).

Reply to WindowBlinds Discount Coupon in Stardock Software WinCustomize Forums

I believe the way that Windowblinds has been described is that it extends from the regular windows operating system; one of the news articles previewing WB5 can answer that questions more in depth than I can (and probably more correctly). As for skinning the GUI, if you remove Windowblinds then it will revert back to the default Windows Classic setting, and you won't be able to retain the skin. There are a couple of programs I

Reply to internet explorer loses its customization in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Mine does the same thing, only it does it when I browse in Firefox -- when I first open the window it is Windows Classic, then I unmaximize the screen to move it around and it changes to the skinned version. Sometimes after a while the entire thing disappears (the top title bar as well as the left/right and bottom skinned parts of the window). Everything else remains, like the taskbar, and I can still minimize/close the browser from there. Firefox r

Yeah, it can happen...but getting that many people to actually complete an offer correctly so that you get the points for it is HARD -- I know a guy that spent 6 months trying to get five people refferred for an iPod. Yes he got it, but after 6 months of working at it. In addition, most of these places say they can change the requirements at any time (read the Terms & Conditions). To me, it's not worth it.

Some are trickier, like Microsoft Office icons -- I had to creat a new shortcut with the application as the target, then I could change the image. Those in particular don't like to be changed through the properties.

Reply to PS3 release probably not until Holiday season in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

I saw a quote where Bill Gates said they were planning to release Halo 3 on the same day as Sony released the PS3...I wonder if they'll push the game back to the Holiday season (probably not, I've already seen an ad for a spring release). Well I just answered my own inquiry...perhaps. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/icons/wc.gif" border=0 alt="Posted via WinCustomize Browser/Stardock
