Yet another unwitting victim of the so called "pay to win" phenomenon. The only real advice i could offer is to stay as far away from these games as possible unless the actual game developer is a well known reputable company. It sucks that you got ripped off this way because there are a lot of honest game developers and companies out there that do the right thing and then you get the rogues like the one you dealt with obviously are it it taints the entire genre for everyone. I hope you are ab

as far as i know Windowblinds does not make any changes to windows what so ever. All the functions reside in memory only. I could be wrong but that's why WB is so popular because it makes absolutely no changes to any windows files. It's all memory based. Other skinning software requires you to used "Patched or hacked" windows files where WB does not.

Everyone always seems to blame the rich for all the worlds ills. And while yes they can be held responsible for some pretty horrible things not everything is "The Corporations" or "The Rich" fault. Some times we the ordinary folk have to take our share of the blame too. After all without US the rich would be poor, The Corporations would be weekend stalls. WE perpetuate the demand for everything quicker, easier etc. It's easy to just lay the blame elsewhere but much harder to take some of

[quote who="starkers" reply="108" id="3583041"] Yeah, but the older houses have a certain character and charm [/quote] We looked at some older houses with a view to having them removed and re stumped onto the block. But in Bendigo there were very few that could be moved that we liked. I did want to go with the miners cottage to, but to extend on those involved so much red tape due to heritage reasons it made the cost prohibitive.

I am happy that the issue is resolved though. The people who own the block behind us which have our meter are not to happy but that's their problem.

[quote who="Jafo" reply="98" id="3579968"] It won't be the council as such...but more the Developer attempting to appease whatever concerns of the Council. [/quote] That is exactly it. On the good news front, we have got onto the back fence problem and the developer of the original estate and and the fencing contractor have approved the moving of the fence to get us back our meter of land, which is cool.

Some new pictures. Everything slowing down now as only one trade at a time can be there. Painting is done. Plumbers were there today doing the outside plumbing stuff. Tilers were inside doing the wet areas etc. Looking really good now. Only painting left to do is the alfresco ceiling. Looking down through the dining/family into kitchen. My father-in-law is the star in the picture :P <img src="https://scontent-hkg3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xft1/v/t1.

I think you can be assured that a Windowblinds update for Windows 10 will be forthcoming. After all with Windows 10 looking the way it does there is going to be a horde of people wanting to make it look better.

This happens to me only after using one application and that is when i play The Settlers II. As this game comes as a DOSbox wrapped program. (the only way it will run on a windows 7 64 bit system). After exiting the game my windows UI reverts back to the windows basic scheme and a box opens up telling me that The Desktop Windows Manager has stopped working. Reapplying the theme through WB Config sorts this out. It just may be that the two applications don't talk together correctly. I cons

The solution is quite simple. If you don't wanna pay that price for a theme/skin... the don't, your choice but don't piss and moan about it. Some of the higher priced themes contain skins for multiple programs and while i wish i could just buy the WB theme sometimes that's not how the skinner sells their work, That's called freedom of choice and wars have been fought about it (pick up a history book sometime). But to come here and act like a petulant kid crying over the co
