Reply to Loading a desktop with DesktopX (Newbies #15) in Tutorials WinCustomize Forums

Akicetrek - thanks for your kind words. Weather widget: DirectX shouldn't have anything to do with a widget, do you mean DesktopX? In terms of the function of the widget it all depends on which widget you are using and where it's stored. The default widget should use information from the registry and the internet to get you the correct weather. Perhaps you are not online when you launch the widg

Reply to Need help here in SkinStudio Help JoeUser Forums

Welcome to WinCustomize Nightstelth. I'm sure you'll get used to us around here. I'm not a skinner myself, but it's my understanding that you would be better off using Photoshop or your favorite graphics program to make the bootskin and then editing the .ini file with notepad. It is only like 3 lines. SkinStudio won't allow you to make a .bootskin file. HOpe

Manopeace - try your blacklist and let me know if it's fixed. If not, e-mail me here: Email little_whip (and everyone): feel free to post suggestions/comments/rants here. We don't currently have a suggestion "box", but it would be a good idea.

Reply to JU Trouble? Tell Us About It Here! in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Manopeace: Also working on your Blacklist issue - give us until the end of the day (EST). Thanks again for responding everyone, both with issues and with suggestions. We will take a look at everything that has been said. I can't make any promises (since I'm not actually the one doing the fixing) but obviously we want the site to run well and we appreci

Reply to Unleashing a never ending supply of crazy in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

Ah yes, the pain of embarassment: I know it well (much to my despair). I would say that based on the fact that you are currently here and wondering about your state of affairs you are not doomed to a life of some permanent childhood where you throw tantrums because you can't get what you want. We ALL lose our control from time to time, and I suspect that in the future you will not again put yourself in a similar situation. Does that make you feel bette

Reply to JU Trouble? Tell Us About It Here! in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Thanks for responding all. There is work being done behind the scenes even now. At the moment we are most concerned with those who cannot connect at all, but any comments or suggestions you want to leave here will be read and discussed. I do realize that it is difficult for those who cannot connect to report their problems, but since others were posting the requests for help for them this week I was hoping that might continue. <img src="http://images.

We have been seeing several articles lately that indicate a number of you are having a problem connecting to JU. Personally, I would wither away and die without JU, so we understand your pain and want to get these issues cleared up if possible. If you or someone you know is having a problem connecting, please respond here and tell us EXACTLY what the error message is (include a screenshot if you want to) and when you started having the trouble, and any other information you think is

lifehappens - I've been behind schedule in checking out blogs. I'm honored to be mentioned in yours! Really nice work on the "goat collage" - much better than anything I could do at this point. Thumbs up!

Sorry you are having trouble - I assume you are talking about IconPackager? You should contact technical support at [email protected] . If it's a bug it should be reported.

Loading a desktop with DesktopX (Newbies #15) in Tutorials WinCustomize Forums

Today's topic is loading a DesktopX 3.0 desktop. A DesktopX desktop is basically a snapshot of your desktop. It can be a desktop you've arranged with all of the widgets and objects you like displayed in a pleasing manner (or a displeasing manner, if you have a taste for suffering. Who am I to judge?). </P

Reply to Always room for Jello in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Danny: I TOTALLY agree we should have a cooking section. Why have we missed that before? Unfortunately I can't help you with the jello issue - I can barely boil water much less actually make any food stuffs. That's why a cooking section would be so helpful to me.

lifehappens: thank you very much for both the cookie advice and the newbie article comments! It's always a nice feeling to know someone is gaining something by reading what I'm writing. Oddly enough I've been reading your blog and Hyperborean Wanderers blog as well. There is much to be learned in the digital pages of your blogs.

That's how they have the nice dense cooked-but-somehow-still-almost-gooey centers, right? At the very least I don't think they should be dome shaped. I'll have to make a special effort to flatten them next time. And perhaps cook them slightly less? I thought they were a bit on the dry side. Ah, I have much to learn about baking.

You go boy. Be true to your true nature. (I happen to be grumpy - I call it "bitchy" - a lot, and today in particular, so I can't very well complain about you attitude).

I have put off too much stuff for far too long. In order to have one more thing checked off my list, I am writing an update blog. Sorry for the list-like format and sorry to anyone who accidentally clicked on this blog hoping for some kind of interesting information. I have none. I have nothing of interest for anyone who is not a close friend, and even the most hardy of them will be hard put to refrain from yawning as they re

Reply to When Marx met Rand in Politics JoeUser Forums

Gideon - a very well written article, as always. I agree with you that both had grand ideas, and that both philosophies have flaws. As polar opposite as they may be, though, both have one common theme at their heart: the idea that personal responsibility is the only way to make either system work. It may not seem that way with socialism, but socialism could never work if each individual did not fully understand the system under which they were operating and realize that
