Night Train pretty much has it right. You are not going to change people so it's best to change yourself. I learned long ago that you need to get the "Muck" attitude...My name is Muck and I don't give a _uck what others think. Also, change drug stores. Where I live, Public's pharmacies have nicer customers and employee's. Next time look at the person and say... frankly, I don't give a damn. ;)
Jill1, I hope you enjoy DeskScapes, it's a nice program. I'm also glad to hear you like my dreams. Lastly, welcome to the WinCustomize community. :)
[quote]do I uninstall the preview or do I just install the paid version over the preview version.[/quote] I have found that it is best to uninstall the preview before installing the full version. [quote]does running DeskScapes take up much resources or memory[/quote] It's considering the dream that your running and how it was made. The dynamic dreams take the least amount of resourses since the video card does most of the work. For the most part, Stardock
I know a little bit about making them. ;) This [link="https://forums.wincustomize.com/305857"][B][I]Link[/I][/B][/link] will help you get started making your own.
Vista home premium comes with MPEG2 support built in. Also, you can download the latest update of directx 9 from microsoft but I doubt you'll need to. Why don't you download the DreamScapes preview and see how it runs? That way you can try before you buy it.
You need a MPEG2 codec. You can find a good, free one [link="http://www.free-codecs.com/download/VirtualDub-MPEG2.htm"][B][I]here[/I][/B][/link].

sAARGe...now that I have an idea of what you were looking for, let me know if you need more png's of those blasts in different sizes. Perhaps when they first start and are small and bright?
Gotta do it...HAPPY BIRTHDAY...again. ;) Nice to see another May B-day. Mine's the 9th and every so often it falls on Mother's Day. Can you imagine the crap I had to put up with over the years over that? :p

That gives me time to do another dream. Once a wall is done, I can add 2of3's balloons to it and some scrolling text. Can someone send me a link to one of the walls when finished?
Happy Birthday ya'll :D

Is the May 6 still the launch date? If so, I'll upload the dream I created for the suite in the morning. Here's a screen shot [img]http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/994/birthdayfireworks000033ms6.jpg[/img] and a [link="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kC94A-k8rdE"][B][U][I]link to a YouTube clip[/I][/U][/B] [/link]of it in action.

That's pretty cool. Would I be a copy cat if I did mine? ;)
The problem I have seen most is that if you didn't uninstall the preview prior to installing the full version, the two would conflict and neither would run. Hopefully this has been addressed.
I am one lucky SOB when it comes to gasoline. I drive over 70 miles a day and I normally trade my car in for a new one when it runs low on gas. It's nice to work for a car rental company. :)
nauticalpixel...I sent mine too you via PM...just right click on it and save. I had a couple beers yesterday and missed the email addy part. If you want me to, I can still email it to you. Let me know.

I thought at Journeyman level, your submissions are no longer moderated and automatically post. If this is the case, they should not have been moderated when they were updated. How can you blame the lower rating on a moderator in this case?
