Like I said the current lists do not aid new skinners, nor do they help bringing creativity back. /me just wants to give skinners (new or experienced) a little attention on this site. The site works fine if you want to download the latest and greatest skins. The current lists help them to make a choise. Downloaders can sort the skins anyway they want. Nothing wrong with that. I feel this should go on like that. Users can get help if they post their question on the mess

Reply to T-Man's Religous Debate for Doreen in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Religion is from the times in which people were not able to explain the world arround them. People have used religion as guidance. Political leaders have used religion to their advantage and to justify their wars. The latter made me hate religion. "Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction." - Blaise Pascal It is all fine by me if people feel the need to have a religion, but I don't want to be confronted with people that are try

pjpowell: Yes. These are good examples. pictoratus: We cannot set back the clock. But maybe we can get some of the interaction back again and see what comes out of it. As an extra aid next to the Experimental section and its comments we could set up an IRC channel as a meeting when a real-time conversation would be handy. One cam cannot using SB and SDC. Create new temporary channels when

Chances are that you will find them in the Experimental section too. If the atmosphere is good enough they may even give you advice. AFAIK the experienced skinners have always helped new or fellow skinners. All will benifit from experiences of others. Seems like we just need to create a place for that again.

Thanks for your comments WOM. It make me think of a new battle plan. "Hum, feature a new artist or author everyday or once a week? Sounds like a good idea as long as its not political and it's fair." Of course it will be fair and not political. We are on WC here, WOM. "But it seems to me that if the author's work is good it wont take long for him or her to be recognized by everyone.

The lists of skinners with top downloads rarely changes. The list attracts attention to skinners that already have a lot of attention. Because the current system is very prominent new skinners may not have the attention they deserve. I would like to see a list of downloads from skinners that are new. Not sure how to do that, but limiting the list to new skinners with not more than 3 skins/suites may produce interesting results. Let's call it the HotList. We should keep the old lists of

Reply to MIA Friends - Great skinners, where are they now? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Morphh is still "lurking" arround. I have seen him end of last year on the news groups or on the WC message board. I still have an unpublished skin of DAK. I mailed him to ask permission to finish it, but haven't received an answer. He probably has another e-mail address. If someone has a recent one then please mail it to me. In the readme text of DXPlayer are some interresting names of skinners and users that helped me developing WBAmp and DXPlayer. Some of them are still acti

Craeonics: The GUI was invented by Stanford Research Institute and they also invented the mouse and was demonstrated in 1968. Xerox PARC did improve on it by inventing the concepts of windows. http://www.sri.com/about/timeline/mouse.html http://sloan.stanford.edu/MouseSite/1968Demo.html I don't think we will have radical changes in the next decade and do fully agree with Craeonics.
