[quote who="Lantec" reply="4" id="1924236"]How do I obtain those? Do they automatically come with the Impulse download, or do I have to get them some place else? From the Wincustomize Home Page, click on "Settings" on the right next to your nickname. Then click on the Registrations tab. You'll see some with DL1 and DL2, one of them will be a zip file of the unencrypted version. [/quote] Thank you SO much. I'm a happy camper now. I'

I'm not sure this is the proper forum to address this, but I've been slowly trying to learn to skin. Most advice from seasoned skinners is "take apart one you like and see how they did it." Now, with the implementation of MyColors and Impulse, I can't take apart some skins because everything new that comes out through Impulse is encrypted. I understand Stardock needed to do this to stop piracy, and to preserve their intellectual property. I think probably what needs to

It certainly doesn't make them as competitive as someone who can, and I doubt those people you know who can't use a computer are running for the most powerful office in the world. We live in a global competitive society. The leaders of our nation's enemies know how to use modern technology. Vladamir Putin knows how to use e-mail! Osama Bin Laden knew how to use e-mail. What will it say to the rest of the world if our leader is allowed to stay ignorant when it comes t

I've had problems with Impulse, the last one very similar to yours, markslater, (i.e. .NET.framework), and I know how frustrating it can be. If it were just the problems with operation, I think it would be easier to handle, but there's the anxiety and anticipation of getting at the game or skin that you wanted so much in the first place! I do have to say the Stardock support people are really good at walking a customer through the steps to remedy the issue. You

[quote who="Excalpius" reply="3" id="1921325"]Well we have made it to 15 pages, and for the most part it has remained civil, but many of the points I have made were validated in some form or another in this thread. Yes, it is true. You are being left behind by progress...as all conservatives eventually always are. Seriously, we "liberals" are just fighting back, finally, against the group unthink that has dominated American politics recently. <br

That's a very appropriate desktop. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] I just can't bring myself to duplicate it, for my desktop is the only thing that keeps me going, since I haven't had a raise in three years, but consider myself fortunate to still have a job.

[/quote] If my memory of basic United States history is correct, this country was founded by a group of unpatriotic people. There's a video on YouTube of a FEMA official instructing police and firefighters, in which he states that the first terrorist organization in the United States consisted of our founding fathers.
I can't help you out on a name, but I just wanted to say that it's very pleasing to look at. I think it's triggered a dormant conditioned response to the joy I felt at opening up a brand new box of crayons when I was a kid. Really nice dock! [e digicons]5*[/e]

I think some of the intolerance comes from having to live for the past eight years under George Bush's policies. I remember during the last election that liberals were pretty much accused of being (excuse my choice of words here), "pussies." John Kerry was portrayed as a wimp. Numerous times I have been told by conservatives that Republicans are the Daddy Party, and Democrats are the Mommy Party, and what with terrorism being as rampant as it is now, we really need the Daddy
