Reply to Charged twice?!?! hmmm! in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Please contact [email protected] . Though you can email me what address you think this is under. I've checked your records after working with you earlier to see GC2 and I only see the $44.95 GC2 order as current. There shouldn't be $49.95 charges unless you ordered something else. And we didn't charge these orders until the 24th, you didn't order ODNT or something on the 23rd?

Reply to Hours away.. in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

Anyone who's gotten the email with your info and still can't see the game, please email [email protected] the login.txt file from your SDCentral directory (DO NOT post it here). The 2 people who've already done so had their info under 2 slightly different accounts, so SDC didn't see the GC2 order quite right. I can kick that, if that's your issue.

Reply to Problem with DX 3 in DesktopX JoeUser Forums

.desktop has replaced .dxtheme, though the .dxtheme's will still load. It's somewhat clearer on what it's doing/for, as opposed to a widget, gadget (from DX Pro), or individual object.

I have a great collection of her works from the late 50's-70's from my dad. I was saddened to learn of her passing. Though I haven't been so thrilled with some of the "collaborative" books in the last bit, it was still fun to revisit some of the stories and characters I (and my dad) grew up with.

Reply to ThinkDesk in SDC? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

We're moving the pieces into place. Today, for instance, it does show Multiplicity in there and will take you to the website to get the trial version. For various reasons, the 1.00 release is not installable right through there yet, but the 1.00a one should be shortly (updates for file copying support in Pro mostly). And more ThinkDesk pieces are coming, including the network availability.

There will probably be a way to tone down the background layer. I personally can't get enough of it, I want more, realism be damned (FTL ships, anyone?).

Reply to Entertainment has gotten better in Entertainment JoeUser Forums

I don't get kickbacks from Brando's estate (though if that island hasn't cleared probate and I don't have to pay back taxes, give me a call), but it wasn't all total dreck. And despite my dvd collection, I don't think I qualify as a film buff (as opposed to just liking to watch movies). But for those who might like to make use of their "unlimited" Blockbuster rentals or Netflix subscriptions... And, no, not best pi

Reply to Origianl XP theme in WindowBlinds JoeUser Forums

WindowBlinds is not removing your uxtheme.dll or modifying the file. If it or .msstyles files were physically removed from your disk, you need to look elsewhere than WB for the culprit. At this point, if Windows is persisting on being difficult, you may have no choice but to move your data (my docs, favorites, mail, etc) to another dir/device and reinstall.

Reply to Announcing Multiplicity in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

32-bit Windows XP, 2000, or 2003 is required for the primary machine (the one with the keyboard and mouse). The secondaries can be 32-bit XP, 2000, or 2003 at present. The installer needs some updates, but before 1.0, it'll support 64-bit XP and 2003 as secondaries. Post 1.0, 64-bit XP/2003 should be able to be primary's as well. OS X support as a secondary is in development. Linux, we'll see what happens in the future. Multiplicity does not

Reply to Announcing Multiplicity in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Remote desktop, radmin, VNC, and the like are great solutions for bringing the remote desktops to your main PC. Multiplicity needs another monitor hooked up to secondary PC (up to 6 of them). There's no getting around that for the moment (by design). If you don't have 2 PC's and 2 monitors, it's of no use to you. Let me give some examples. Until you've used it, imho, you don't even realize that you've been missing something without it. Which is what the trial version wi
