Reply to FireFox - Full or Portable Version in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

[e digicons]:D[/e] your question is my answer: "what is better than Firefox ? 2 firefox !!" I use the "full" version as resident default browser and .... 2 / 3 portable versions (certainly the last beta available) also you can run 2 firefox at the same time just move the "FirefoxPortable.ini" from the folder Other> Source to the main folder (where the FirefoxPortable.exe is) then open the ini file and edit the "AllowMultipleInstances" string to =true !

[quote].though there may have been mention of how it would allow you to raise the rating once the skin was updated and thus fixed whatever issue had you rating it low....[/quote] thanks Jafo as you said I was only recalling the rerating intentions after a misrate for "the dropdown menu issue" when you mouseover on your way to the download button. !

[quote who="HG_Eliminator" reply="55" id="2539219"] It rerecords your last rating, so there will only be one rating per person. WOM is correct, you can go in and change your rating on a skin by rerating, but it only counts a a single rating, overwriting the previous rating given.. It will not add them up together. So no chance for abuse. [/quote] I read sometime ago (I don't remember where) that the rerating is possible only for uprating the previous vote but

... the skins reaching the main gallery already have gained the honorific to be shown to the world, as with a very poor first moderators rating the skin is only uploaded in the personal pages what about the second idea: leaving everything as it is now just adding [quote] a sticky poll in the Wincustomize HomePage: "Which skin are you using right now?"[/quote] naturally with a pizza and maybe a beer as first prize !

.... just give a try to BigMousePointer (click "free software" in the top left of the page, there BMP is the 4th entry from top) This program sits in the tray bar (with the clock, etc) and enables you to use a BIG arrow (of just about any size and color) as the mouse pointer. <img src="http://www.infocom.cqu.edu.au/Staff/Michael_O_malley/web/pics/bigmouse.gif" alt="" width="385"

[quote]Forget the stars and let the downloads and comments speak for themselves[/quote] consider that 90% of dowloads are from unregistered\visitors moreover the citizens can comment but they are not allowed to vote what remains ? as Po well pointed out the 5 stars (10 points) rating seems quite elitarian, how to mix the two completly different systems maybe 1 bonus star when the skin reaches 10.000 downloads ? ore something similar

[quote]or less honesty as friends dont want to upset friends so they vote with ther hearts instead of thier minds..[/quote] ... ok for the anonymity but what about to have the total count of how many persons voted and even better the specific number of who voted 5 stars \ 4 stars \ 3 stars etc. it will be just few lines more respect the usual 1 line of the average count ! easy to say but I don't know if it's also easy to realize for a good site developer ! <

Reply to Rotate Icons + Rotate Themes in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

ok maybe you are not so much interested on rotating icons on ObjectDock ! what about to rotate the dockbackground theme just changing the position ? just needed 4 different settings 1 for each position (4 different backgrounds\images in the same skin) let'say for the "4 Seasons": Spring in Left, Summer in Top, Autumn in Right, Summer in Bottom position, (naturally on OD plus you can have all the 4 seasons at the same time !)

Rotate Icons + Rotate Themes in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

this is the simple but effective idea: to use the AnimatedShortcut docklet as an Automatic Icon Changer this way you can periodically rotate as many icons you want (the same concept of any wallpaper changer) on setting the docklet the only parameter to consider is the time delay you have to choose a quite long period (in milliseconds: 10.000 for 10 seconds or more) you can even stick with 1 icon temporally or definitel
