If you, or anyone wants to delete the restore partition, make sure you have all the necessary disks. My Dell, for example, has the XP Pro disc, but it's not the regular, out of the Microsoft box, disc. OS and application restore discs only work when you keep the restore partition. No partition, no OS.
You'd think this was spam for XP, but it's 5 years too late. o.0
Oh, BTW, I have confirmed that Apple doesn't have activation in OS X. So, at least one other company agrees with "us" anti-activation people. What? Why would Apple need activation? OSX only works on Apple hardware. You can't just go out and buy Apple parts and put together your own Mac. (Well, maybe you could, but I haven't heard of anyone doing
My battery stopped charging a few months ago. Just my luck that it wasn't one of the ones that needed to be recalled.

Doesn't matter anyway. Seems like someone just wanting something for free that, well, isn't.
I'm against activation simply because it doesn't seem to work. There are indeed working, cracked versions of Stardock applications all over the net. There are illegal versions of all sorts of software. In fact, there probably isn't any software that needs activation that isn't cracked, or crackable. Serial numbers can be reproduced and generated. Maybe I'm wrong, and activation and serial numbers prevent theft. But on various bittorrent sites, Windowblinds and other Stardock software ar
I'd like to see TSF make a Bizarro Superman skin.
I would probably be safe in saying most of the users here (including myself) use Firefox and Windowblinds. I've never had any problems with the two. What you should know, is that WB typically won't skin anything but the outer border of the window. No worries though, since Firefox has many good skins available, including a few in the WC gallery.
Just drag the .scr file to: C:\WINDOWS\system32 Make sure it's a legit screensaver, and not one of those virus-laden programs.

Can I ask why you want to make these 'bliss wallpapers' anyway? There's a millions out there, and they seem pretty much down to a formula now: simple landscape with enhanced highlights, shadows and saturation in Photoshop. Rather than try to emulate an existing genre, maybe try to create your own?
Since my stuff is legit, I don't really mind WGA or even OGA I mind. I remember when the government wiretapping deal came out, people said they had nothing to hide, so they don't mind being listened in on. This isn't the point at all. WGA and government wiretapping basically means that Microsoft and the government assume we're guilty, and then in
Thanks!
Why pay all that money for MS Office, when you can get OpenOffice for free?
Light and shadow are the keys to doing it right. Put a highlight on the side of the hill, and shadow on the flatter part. Same for the clouds. More contrast. The color on the grass is good, but the sky is a bit dull. Pump up the saturation. If you want more depth, put something in the background. A house, a sign, a dinosaur, anything. Just make it small, maybe out of focus. You have a good start, but you just need to push it more.
I think I see RSS feeds for the forums. Sweet!
Even if nobody had a choice, and we were all forced to install IE7, what's the big deal? You don't want a more secure browser with a bunch of new features?
And as you can see, even this thread didn't work. https://forums.wincustomize.com/?forumid=144&aid=124912#966970 Good grief...
Not bad. What's with the navigation on the right side? It seems awkward to me. And not being able to see it in FF is a bit passive-agressive, no?

If people read posts (such as this one), we wouldn't have the problem to begin with. Probably most problems people have, have been answered already. Look how many people ask how to install a skin when they don't even have the program installed. The program to use is right on top of the gallery! Yet, everyday there's a new post asking the same questions. On a lot of tech support sections, before they allow you to contact the tech support directly, they make you search for your question i
Does it happen on all skins? I use Indesign CS2 a lot, and always have WB running, and I've never had problems.

I know what you mean. I've had to make a couple videos for school, and it took 2 minutes to add a fade between scenes. I had to add 5 or 6. Not the end of the world, but it slows down the 'creative process.' And I'm not playing around with some crap computer. 3.4GHZ, 1GB RAM, 128MB vid card. It seems the hardware is plenty capable of handling video editing, but the software needs a major leap foward to keep up with it.
I'm wondering if the whole site is going to use this 'theme' soon... In another thread Brad said the next version of WC will be skinnable itself.
