Reply to "Statistics 6" - Logons in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Armonia, Ditto...great work with the stats!!! I've looked at the last few sets of numbers you have provided and am VERY surprised that treetog doesn't show up on these lists. I guess most of his stuff gets downloaded from Pixtudio, but I recall seeing his name quite a bit on the most popular download section on Wincustomize. I'm not questioning your stats, of course, just surprised. Once again, great work...and as a hooker I once knew used to say.....keep 'em comming

Reply to Desktop Clock in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

You might want to look into sysmetrix. It will allow you to display an analog clock along with other system metric (hence the name). It's completely skinnable and skins for it are VERY easy to create. BTW, Welcome aboard!!!

Reply to Why charge subscription ? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Yes I do understand. I was born and spent most of my youth in North Africa (Algeria, Libya, Morrocco to be precise). My parents were volenteers for the red cross and I can remember having to share a small can of sardines for dinner with them and my two sisters. I also remember begging in the street for money to buy bread for my family at the age of five. School was only a dream for someone like me. We (my sisters and I) learned to read an write with the help of our parents and did not atten

Who would buy them if they could still download them for free? At any rate, non-subscribers can still download (within reason) a great many skins. BTW, some of us are 'rich' because we worked hard and earned our money. One or two days work at McDonalds would more than pay for the price of a full Object Desktop subscription - so would mowing a few neighbors lawns (if you're not old enough to work at McDonalds). The world does not owe you 'poor' chaps a thing....There's no such thing a

Reply to Snipers in DC in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I was raised in large part in France. My grandfather left me a collection of 63 guns/rifles/shotguns - everything from mausers (sp) guns to uzi's. You would not believe the problems I had trying to import these into the US (many were outlawed here). I eventually gave up trying and sold them off. I don't own a gun now, but I sure am glad I could if I wanted to. As others here, I believe guns are just a way to throw a very small rock very far at a great speed. Nothing more. If you're the ty

Actually, you can change the Win2000 logon screen. It requires writing what is refered to as a gina dll (MSGina.dll). Not a trivial endeavor. If anybody wants to take this on (no aafus...not you) here's a good starting point. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/security/security/building_and_testing_a_gina_dll.asp <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN=

Reply to Skinbrowser 0.98 in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I have the same problem. I'm sure it will be fixed soon. In the meantime, you can add skin browser to the 'per app' exclusion list in windowblinds and it should work fine.

Reply to Wanna see a killer design??? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Commander X, I also think that self-promotion is not likely to contribute to your success. Spamming this site will assuredly not get you a positive response (as demonstrated so well in the above responses). However, I think you have a good start on graphics...so you should keep working and learning. All, (except mig) I don't think that the negative comments here do any good (mob mentality if I ever saw it). What's a community worth if it doesn't support and encourage
