Reply to DreamMaker SDK? in Animated Wallpapers WinCustomize Forums

BarnBurner -- As anyone can see from the post I left. I am not advocating nor expecting a half baked product to be given forth. I do point out that "if it isnt ready that is understandable", what wasn't understandable was the tone and lack of interaction with the prospective users of the SDK and the development community. What I do point out is that even basic information and questions go unresponded to, questions and discussions are not a product and could be freely talked over. There was no wh

Gents, Dont expect too many answers nor any information on the vaporware SDK, save "soon". What you can expect are whitty and unhelpful comments from Stardock staff. I fail to understand the logic in "slapping" down an honest and sincere request for knowledge, why those of us wanting to help further this product are met with sharp tones and general lack of interest.

Can we clear up the copyright issues? in Animated Wallpapers WinCustomize Forums

I wonder just what Microsoft and IMAX might do if they were in the know about several of the most popular "dreams". Just because these "dream authors" are taking a small loop or fragment of the overall work and encoding it to a different medium and distribution, doesn't mean that they havent violated copyrights. Take many of the recent viacom / youtube issues. Many popular TV and movie clips, previews and fragments were ordered removed based on copyrights held by viacom, youtube complied rath

While we are removing things it would seem that the dream titled "robotica" would need to be reviewed and removed. It is held in copyright by microsoft and most likely the contributor does not have persmission to redistribute nor reauthor it.
