In the #Stardock IRC channel you can find the LickServ bot. Amongst other things it has a database of 10,000 useless facts. A sample: In South Africa, termites are roasted and eaten by the handful, like pretzels or popcorn.

Banned from the #Stardock IRC channel? in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

All is well again. IRC freaks are strange people who love to ban, but randomly banning people in the #Stardock channel was too much. Often people come there for support and are visiting the channel for the first time. In the message board I'll describe how it was solved by... banning everyone in the channel. See the link for details.

Banned from the #Stardock IRC channel? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hehe. Sorry for the inconvenience. But I must admit that I had fun with the situation. Due to an unknown glitch in the IRC software some people were banned for no reason at all. We had this problem before and Kris needed to recreate the channel to solve it. He probably has a simple way of doing that, but this is my way... To recreate the channel an IRC admin simply deletes it. But to do tha

A skin that is not using a given UI element doesn't use resources for it. So, you are free to make a skin with just the features you like. Alternatively you can also remove features from a skin by editing it.

Reply to How meny Skinners Have you Flesh met in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Actually, I spend a weekend with Kwee2 and her husband Piere from Paris, France in Brussels, Belgium. We had a great time. It was all in an attempt to meet more European skinners, but we were the only ones that actually went. All others that signed up to go there found a reason not go. So, we dreamed up a reason to go and found one... Belgian beer.

Reply to The Nickname we choose.... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

My employer selected the nick name. He bought us black ice hockey shirts and at the back he wanted our names. Because I am eating a lot of (chocolate) ice cream and because I was mad he called me MadIce. My Dutch first name is Matthijs and MadIce sounds a lot like it. So, the nick is easier for you to write and pronounce. BTW: All the shirts did have the number 13 on it, because our company is called The Thirteenth Production. <A HREF="https://www.wincustomize.com/index.asp?Cmd=full&News

Jafo cheer up. Things can always be better now. Remember "Avery's Rule of Three"?: Trouble strikes in series of threes, but when working around the house the next job after a series of three is not the fourth job -- it's the start of a brand new series of three. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIG

Reply to Graphic Tablets in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I just walked arround the office here and I see only Wacom tablets and it seems that our people think the tablets mentioned have a good price/quality ratio. Some of them are using it because they feel that tablets will help their mouse related RSI problems. Others need it because they feel that it is easier to sketch and draw with. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle" ALT
