Reply to Problem with skinning Skin Browser... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Haven't tried any other wide framed skins Wise. I don't have any downloaded right now so I'll have a look through the WB library and see if I can find a few to download and try. The old wallpaper was/is called WIndigo. (my poor attempt at a pun. ).

Problem with skinning Skin Browser... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I recently received a note from a member letting me know of a problem with my 'Indigo' skin and Skin Browser. When the Skin Browser window is maximized the right side scroll bar is hidden behind the wide borders of 'Indigo' and also the button along the bottom of each section in Skin Browser get partially cut off. One is required to 'restore' the window to a smaller size and then manually size the window. I have tried every other application that I own and the problem

Reply to Need some sort of confirmation button after pressing 'delete' in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

It's just a simple little wall I made a while ago to go with my Indigo WB skin. I only got a few hundred downloads, so I'm not too concerned. Mostly, I posted this thread to see if a confirmation screen was a possiblility in the future. It would reduce these kind of mistakes (I'm a bit reckless with the mouse sometimes <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/lol.gif" border=0 ALIGN="ab

Need some sort of confirmation button after pressing 'delete' in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Just recently I was updating a wallpaper and accidently pressed the 'delete' button. Boom, gone! No confirmation of deletion, just gone. Maybe a secondary confirmation screen would be a good idea for just such mistakes. I've uploaded the file again, but it will now appear as a new wall when in reality it is just an updated, 'old' one. Oh well! <img src="http://images.stardoc

Sorry to hear you can not recover much of the drive. It will take many hours to remake everything. And when you are trying to do it all from memory it is very time consuming. Everyone is suggesting ways to store your data for safe keeping. I have a way that I do it that works for me. Many will laugh at my system, but it works for me. I use old fashioned 3.5" floppies. Most of my designs are small enough to fit on a standard 3.5" floppy, (if they aren't I use a file splitti

adni, the link I gave for 'DriveSavers' says that they can recover disks from a 'head crash'. I may be worth making a phone call to them just to see if they can help, and to get a price quote. It's worth a try.

Oh adni, this is terrible. All that work, all those hours. Just terrible. Is it completely gone? Have you tried contacting Data Recovery specialists. There are a few that say they can recover up to 90% of a disk that looks impossible. You may want to try to find something online. Try a google search for "Data Recovery" and see what comes up. Here is one such place. http://www.drivesavers.com/ There are many more. I am so sorry for your loss of all that

Reply to CorelDRAW 11 OK’ed for Skinning by me. in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I have always used Corel. At my work, the 5 Graphic designers use Corel. We find it is easier to work with. And files are easily ripped to an imagesetter, or in our case, directly to plate. (no pre-press) It has proved over and over again to be a real workhorse for our printing company. Looks like we will be purchasing 5 upgrades soon.
