[quote who="Annatar11" reply="95" id="2673770"] Only the innocent and the daft will get hurt by this new witch hunt. How can an innocent get hurt by this? Presumably, just about the only way you'd get sued is if they tracked your IP over a P2P network and found out it's you seeding or downloading something - which kind of goes against "innocent".[/quote] Read my post. Specifically, the last couple paragraphs. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] Basically, it's going to cost

2012!? So Windows 8 is what destroys the world!? [e digicons]8O[/e] Personally, I think that little prototype computer they have there is ugly. Looks like something from the 80s. Maybe it's just the color scheme. :p If MS really wants to compete with Apple though, they need to produce software faster. For the best Apple emulation, they should just repackage Windows 7, call it Windows 8, and sell it at full price. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

Steve Jobs is one of the most pretentious bastards I've ever seen and Apple's overall attitude just grinds me gears. Not to mention, I don't find any of their software to be overly usable at all. I used iTunes for a bit but really, WMP or Songbird works just as well and doesn't make me look like I'm tr

I thought Manga would be a bit confusing, myself. A lot of the images and stuff are placeholder, as well. As of right now, the window buttons, navigation buttons, and the logoff buttons, don't even have alternate states. They're the same whether you hover or click. [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] Start button changes though. There's still a lot to do. The search and navigation backgrounds were tricky to say the least. But I can't take credit for that, that's all Bubbabyte. [e

So yeah, there's a bit of a story with this one. A while back, I spotted an amazing looking mockup on DeviantArt by a fellow named Bubbabyte. I thought the mockup was awesome but I was currently working on other projects. I recently finished those other projects (or they're on temporary hiatus... <_<), and thus, I decided to ask Bubbabyte if he would allow me to try my hand at turning his mockup into a functional skin. He quickly replied with a "sure" and sent me the .psd file.<

I don't find any of the latest "teen idols" to be all that attractive, honestly. I'm more into women my own age. I also don't really understand the fascination with virgins.
