Hmmm? there are close to 2000 windowblinds skins here at WC; they all don't come installed with Windowblinds, that would be a huge waste of your disk space. Browse around and find the ones you want and download them. I could be completely misunderstanding your complaint, though, so forgive me if so.

p.s. I noticed that the user screenshots are all broken for me right now, so they may be working with the accounts, or having problems with the related hardware.
digitaldevil: click the 'about' link in the options section of the left column, about halfway down.
If you had to pick just one... ... ... ... ... then it wouldn't be skinnable . P.S. Jafo: There are showing 'The Road Warrior' on TV right now, and I think you and wombat are way off about that gun control thing in Australia. That's a scary looking place. Do you have a mohawk and wear leather pants? Seems to be pretty customary...
Okie doke. No offense intended, I promise. It was just a very confusing circumstance from my perspective. I'm not completely confortable with it myself, but it seems like a reasonably legitimate way of doing things. Best of luck.
Hrm... I'm confused. Link isn't to EZ Themes, and I had to dig through the site that was linked to even find EZ Themes, which had nothing about a contest. The contest seems to be held by the host, filesubmit_dot_com. There doesn't seem to be a way to join EZThemes. FileSubmit's terms of use says: "By submitting Content to FileSubmit.com you grant FileSubmit.com the world-wide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, modify, adapt and publish the Content solely for the
Jafo: You're a pal, I'm not gonna get up-in-arms about your beliefs. Your personal feelings about gun control aren't the point of my post, though. What *did* give me a bit of pause was the fact that you evacuate said feelings like a week-old burrito. If someone gets killed in my country, screw the criminal, let's whoop up on the gun lobby. Oddly enough, I don't see Americans offering unsolicted derision of Australia's or Canada's gun laws when their own flavors of nut pop a gasket and kills
This the exact same conversation we had a week ago. Why not just post a link? I'm not gonna bother... but I *would* like to remind all our doves to re-read their national gun laws and statistics before they say "This is what we do in our country". It would be more accurate to say "This is what I do in my country". There are no vocal members of this debate that live in nations with an outright firearms ban, and those most vocal live in countries where you can own almost
lmao... pocketknives... worse yet, SWISS pocketknives... LOOKOUT!! HE'S GOT A CORKSCREW!!! NO! WAIT, IT'S A SCISSORS... NO! NOW IT'S TWEEZERS!!! AHHHHH! HELP! NOT THE SCREWDRIVER!!! *thump* *thump* *thump* ...poor, dead horse...
Our aussies get the most out of the equine population by beating the dead ones, over and over and over...
Okay, I'll deduct a half point for multiple posts, and add a half point for not stooping to 'skinspiration'. They do seem to make some pretty stuff.
WOOHOOO!!! I didn't post again!!! oh... wait... anyway, Lecrayon and all, as a peace offering, I give you: http://www.scarysquirrel.org/phaze.html
Mouse gestures *could* be the Next Big Thing. I have been playing with them a bit, and I think they are a ways off from being efficient. To me, you really need a setup where the gestures are the only reason to click the window. When you have scrollbars, hyperlinks, etc, there are always gonna be annoying misfires. A standard gesture "language" would be good, too, since memorizing them for several different apps would be a pain in the butt. The main problem I have with Mozilla's use
If they tied the OS default browser to their own internet service they would reignite a lot of their old legal problems. They might just freeze IE at 6.0 forever and use it as a generic OS browser, but I doubt it. That would place them against other operating systems with newer, swoobier default browsers. MSN might make them money, but I dunno if they would water down one of the most-used components of the Windows to help it along. The only other option is to offer no default browser
goodmorphing: i'm good, thanks. I defeated the urge to go back to Norrath . Morrowind is the methadone for my Everquest addiction, lol. My only problem with the whole sniper thing is how the damned news channel pundits refuse to shut up about it now. The made fun of each other for two days for speculating, and now they are speculating again. I was trying to find out information about the horrible
and the award for 'Most Effective Use of the Exclaimation Point in a Needless Rant' goes to... (drumroll)
LSdotNet sez, "The time-frame for relaunch is 'When it is done'", so i guess I am saying the same for my next theme. I don't blame them, it's not like they are getting paid. When they do get it done I hope that we have a little bit of abstraction so that changing the exe won't necessarily break the themes. Just a little layer that interprates the themes and catches errors so the shell itself doesn't tank if the theme is broken. The app then could just talk to the theme interpreter. Maybe tha
Talisman has several 'room' type themes, and it can run over explorer if you prefer not to replace you shell.
ignorance? lmao, think of it as ICQ without any of those annoying 'security and privacy' things. This is a holdover from the concept of 'business OS' that MS is abandoning, and yet imposing the responsibilty for administrating on home users. MS includes easily-abusable 'services' and then turns them on by default when 99% of all users will never know they are on. Ignorance, to me, is the assumption that everyone is behind a corporate firewall...
wombat: When I used the word 'jester' I was referring to Lecrayon, and his statements about the sniper that *you* seemed to offer justification for by listing assassinated leaders of my country. I had a friend who was in the Gulf at the time of the Stark incident. I also seem to remember the USS Vincenes shooting down a Iranian airbus with 300 passengers a few years back. What sort of conspiracy could you attach to that? Did we want the scrap metal, or the jet fuel? Maybe
They are buying the container, and the rights to the stuff *should* remain under the user agreement. Kind of like buying a mall, but not the stores that in the mall, if that makes any sense. Really, if you think about it, there is nothing stopping anyone from downloading all the skins and gleaning all the emails now, without buying the site at all. I've found lately that idiots can do about anything they want as long as they based in countries that have odd concepts of 'law'. If I wa
ya gotta weed through those pesky services, MS and their silly toys...
Sadly the purchase price would be nothing compared to the operating price over the course of months or years. If I recall, Skinz was costing thousands a month at the height of its popularity. With the top 4 or 5 spots in this genre filled by other sites already, it would have to be pretty innovative to regain its popularity. Unless a wealthy patron comes along, I really think it would be best if it were absorbed by an existing *community* site.
Wombat : The only talk of Korea's army here has been in response to those short-sighted enough to suggest intervening there militarily... For the record I wasn't responding favorably to cutting off oil. As far as 1980's Iran/Iraq, the history books aren't necessary considering we are reminded by every Arab pundit on CNN. Somehow, in the post-Carter era, the oil producing (read: wielding) middle east became, um, confused? I seem to remember a fuel shortage at one point in our his
Someone said the reserve was 5 grand. Dunno if it is true. If they had done this 6 months ago I could have gone halfsies with someone, but right now I couldn't chip in nearly that much, and then I'd have no server/upkeep money. ah, well... I'll keep my fingers crossed for SD. I do wish they'd not sell the db content to an unknown party. At least they oughtta lose the backups so people can change their email addresses until we know who is getting it.
