ok, we've had the music, cartoons, movies, and tv threads.. let's hear who reads comics, and what they like i tried a couple copies of xmen again the other day, and was actually pretty disappointed in the art.

to get around that paxx, if i'm modifying an existing file, the first thing i do is save the template file with a new name and work on the copy brad's right, standards suck. in modern industry, quantity and timliness is waaay more important than quality. it's such an aggregious insult to the work ethic that made this country a success i'm surprised it's not talked about more. my grandpa

the subscriptions are not a money making thing.. it'd be nice if they were.. lol.. but they're not. it's just one more element working toward the site supporting itself. the kind of bandwidth in use here is verrrry pricey.

hehe.. with a nick like old crab, i think it's your responsibility to be a wet blanket.. another interesting fact is that the vast majority of signers didn't sign on july 4th, but here and there over the following months.

precisely.. it's all one big community. in a community you care about what your neighbors think here at wc, we care about what the da admins think.. not because we have some sort of 'papers' on it, but because we're all in this together :]

someday, advertisers will realize that net ads need to be a combination of tv and print ads. when they realize this, they will also realize that net advertising is much more valuable than they currently think. the backlash from the dot-comet convinced advertisers that, no, people don't buy directly through your little ad like you thought they would. but.. they over-reacted and went too far the other way. it's just as effective as tv or print, and perhaps moreso. net ads coul

"the stars are right!" i think i actually detected paxx and jafo coming close [close, not meeting] to a neighboring opinion on this.. their points, though not meeting, are seeming to converge a bit. i think this fortells a new golden age of harmony and.. well, maybe not all kidding aside, i have the utmost respect for you both, and relish the opportunity to hear both your views. that said, i'

Reply to paying for a skinning site??? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

yep ...for example carlitus, since you have an od subscription there's no limit on your downloads. the way most sites are going pay these days is to offer special services for paid subscribers. i think this can probably work. the things which might change this are advertisers waking up to how things really work, and bandwidth costs getting back down to realistic levels. both those could take a

i think it is valid lecrayon.. if a movie bombs at the box office, the studio may not know why, but it's still a valid criticism by the audience. in a judged olympic event, they don't have to explain why they give an athlete a 2.5 or a 9.9, but it's still completely valid. i think everyone 'wants' comments, and often when we want something but aren't getting it, we find a way to label it as unfair. of course, this isn't necessarily the case. not accurate? perhaps not perfec

ok.. above i asked 'do you feel it's empirically wrong to give low ratings?' most said no, only if it's done maliciously. i think this is far rarer than most may think. i'd bet the vast majority of ratings are given honestly. see a skin you thought was neat, but it was rated low? maybe so. somebody found something wrong with it, that perhaps you overlooked. it happens some sai
