Chances are that you don't like my comments when I rate you a 4. I would have to hurt your feelings. I stand by my position! If you are going to rate something with a low rating so the general public (the majority) won't see it, at least offer some CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. If you feel you must rate a skin that low and can only offer hurtful commen

Chances are that you don't like my comments when I rate you a 4. I would have to hurt your feelings. Madlce: Why would you have to hurt their feelings? You couldn't offer some friendly advice on technique or content instead ? hashonboat, if you looked real close, you have a rating of 3 and only 1 rating, that means thats what it was moderated at. So the A-hole is a moderator. It's not s

Want to hear from a "newbie" ? I discoveres Wincustomize & liked it . Bought the od & wincustomize subscriptions suites, yada yada. I decided I liked what I was seeing & wanted to learn myself how to do skinning. My very first logon was rated a 3 within just a few minutes of it going up WITH NO EXPLANATION from the rater. I thought it was pretty good. I made something I like & it's what I use as My logon. All my friends & family I showed it to thought it was cool. Granted they aren't skinne

No!, I got your point. I don't know of any other sets specifically for webblinds That's why I said I use YZ Toolbar for the icons because there aren't many for WebBlinds. There aren't that many for YZ Toolbar either but I like them better.When you use it you can't tell if it's webblinds or whatever. You just see icons. AS for throbbers, don't know about any others except here.

Just 2 cents. I'm fairly new to all this customization stuff. I bought Abracadabra. I also downloaded morphium's skin. No offense but I never thought , oh that looks like Abracadabra. I just thought it was cool. Yeah, the toppart is similar. Does that mean it was ripped? What is a rip anyway? Can someone define it. Look at all the new cars for sale. They all look the same. If he sent it to Treetog for permission would it have been granted? How much do you have to change the buttons for it not t

http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp This is a link for a memory diagnostic program. It is small. You download it & put it on a floppy then boot off the floppy. It will do a thorough diagnostic check on your memory. My system was having similar symptoms & it was a bad 256MB DDR stick that was only a month old.

I changed the name of the old object dock folder then installed the new one and moved all my stuff over. It worked fine, the install did require a re-boot however.

Let me just clarify quickly before someone chimes in that I should upgrade to XP. I have upgraded to XP but still multi-boot with 2K because the fax software that I have and really love is way better than the XP fax & it won't run on XP. Diamond Multimedia doesn't even make modems anymore so no updated drivers are available. SO I have to keep Windows 2000

The only thing I use from WebBlinds is the throbber. I use the use windowblinds skin option for the skin and YZ Toolbar for the toolbar images.

IP's are dynamic. Hence DHCP. They change. They are leased. Depending on where you are your IP can change evry hour. You can force an IP change. Whoever hosts your DHCP sevice (usually your ISP) can match you with your IP. Do you think they can get court orders to get that info from your ISP? Will your IP address have changed since then? Hummm........ With a packet sniffer they may see your username when you log on to your ISP, unless it is encrypted. Will they hire codebreakers to

How are they going to positively identify you? Has the Government given them some secret authorization to snoop around in your computer for personally identifiable information? While I agree with copyright laws I also support the American Constitution and Big Brother granting some special right to a private organization to spy is ludicrous and worthy of another American Revolution.

That key will change the size of icons on your desktop. It is the radio button in display properties>effects>Use large icons. I'm looking for the XP start menuicon size. In start menu & taskbar properties it says "select an icon size for your programs" ..."Use large icons" or "Use small icons" The small are 16x16 the large are 48x48. I want 32x32

OK!, Here's a question from a guy in his mid-forties who now needs reading glasses. Anyone know where the registry key is to change the size of either the small or large size, doesn't matter which. AS I said the small size is just too small & the large size is way more than needed. I'm talking about the user pane side of the start menu. I have geeked on the internet & in the registry here for about

Doomgaze, just use SkinStudio to remove the logos for your own PC. I myself made an Object Dock background & 2 menu skins that use the nvidia color scheme. Unfortunately as Treetog told me, he could not give me permission to post it since Pixtudio does not own the rights to the skin, nVidia does. So I use the skins myself but cannot share them and no one can modify them or use their graphics and post it here or any where without nVidia's permission. Hope that helps. <img src="http://images.sta

Here's another link that includes '98, ME,2000 & Xp versions...http://messenger.msn.com/download/v6preview.asp My brother & I have been using it for about a month now & we both love it. Since we live 6,000 miles from each other it's great to video conference for free. Looks like koop was giving out the same info at the same time. I guess I need to learn to type faster.

I just got a new 128 MB NVidia GeForce FX 5200 Ultra last night. I haxe WinXP Pro, P4-1.6 GHz, 512 Mb DDR, It worked fine for about 7 hours then crashed my computer & I haven't been able to get it to work since unless I un-install the card in device manager. I downloaded the latest drivers from BFG before I put the card in. I tried using the drivers that came with the card & no luck.

After having Object Desktop for 10 months I just realized I couldn't change the icon for the "WINDOWS" folder. I found a nice icon I thought I would use for it but the customize tab is not there in properties. ( windows xp professional). I checked around & noticed it's not axailable for "Program Files" or "system32" foldeers either. I could not find anything in Icon Packager to do it but I could change it with "Magic Tweak". Maybe that could be something for the next release of Icon Packager?
