Reply to 98 User- What is the best beginner OD program to start with? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Well, personally I have a tendency to download everything that comes across my component manager - even if I'm not planning on using it. Why? Erm, I really don't have a clue - I just do. ^_^ It shouldn't hurt anything keeping the other stuff installed - but it never hurts to get a 'fresh start'. I know I've been planning on doing that myself - but that's because I want to clean stuff up! <img src="http:

I'm glad that an actual /fix/ to keeping Windows Messanger from automatically popping up is out now - although, all you have to do is rename the Windows Messenger folder too. ^_^

And Thornz - no, I'm still not getting those little watermark-esque images in my explorer window. Enh.

Y'know - I still really don't have much of a clue what I want to be 'when I grow up'. I know it isn't any of the things I've done so far, that's for sure!

Above anything else? I'd say Windowblinds. Windowblinds to me, at least, is -the- OD component. After that, I would probably say IconPackager - most of the people who put out icon packages either put out non-WinXP versions, or make sure they work with pre-XP versions of Windows. Outside of those - it really depends on what you're wanting to try to achieve, probably! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/

The only two I really even use are Windowblinds and IconPackager (+ CursorXP even though that's not OD,) and.. well.. no, I couldn't! ^.^

Heh - so I see! For some reason I never think of the newgroups (even though I'm subscribed to them all,) until somebody says "Check the newsgroups." O.o

Hint, hint, guys! Offer us up a list of known issues so we can know if we blunder onto anything 'new'! ^_~

Reply to To Vagrant Frogboy And everybody in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Bravo! Even with all of the quirks, and the occaisional pain, the money I paid for me OD subscription is easily the best money I've ever spent on my PC!

Watermarks is always what they've reminded me of - because they've always been next to invisible on my notebook. ^_^ Yeah, I wasn't expecting perfection - as you said, it's an alpha release after all. Too be honest, it's a /much/ smoother alpha than I was expecting! Many companies would call this a 'beta' so far. I just wish they'd given us a list of known issues. ^_~ <img src="http://images.stardock.

Hrm - I'm guessing you mean the little watermark like images that used to display in the bottom right of the explorer pane in the special folders? No. I'm not. I just noticed. I /am/ getting an icon in the bottom right of the Tasks pane however ("Picture Tasks" for My Pictures, "Music Tasks" for My Music, etc.) The skins are skinning the right side of the control panel for me - but /only/ when it's it Category View (which I never use.) <img src="http://images.stardock.com/

I think we're both confused now! ^_^ But I was confused by your original post (read: I didn't read it closely enough and so my mind filled in the blanks on the parts of it I didn't notice!) and because of that, I confused you! YAY! I blame this new WB alpha. ^_~

*laughs!* OH! XP shell /backgrounds/?? Oy - need to learn to read better (he says as he scrolls back up.) Ahem - I read that as shell (console,) window skinning... egads - just ignore me, I'm obviously more braindead tonight than I thought I was! O.o

Reply to WindowBlinds 4 - Umm, where is it? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Yup - they work fine here for me. I just checked the box (took me a minute or two to find,) and it works with both the Blackcomb and Beacon (which I'm using now,) which came with it.

Reply to Fun with RAID... Tip/help needed in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

But then, at the same time, Fuzzy- most RAID controllers (such as the Promise controller on my Soyo,) will allow you to use the RAID channels as seperate and distinct IDE channels, instead of using them to set up a RAID array. Personally, I can't see why anybody would need an IDE /5/ - but I agree with Fuzzy - it's a hard to diagnose/support thing online like this. ^_^ <img src="http://images.stardock.com/imag

Reply to Freedom...what does it mean to you? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Since we're throwing up definitions... *coughs* Freedom, n.: Exemption from the stress of authority in a beggarly half dozen of restraint's infinite multitude of methods. A political condition that every nation supposes itself to enjoy in virtual monopoly. Liberty. The distinction between freedom and liberty is not accurately known; naturalists have never been able to find a living specimen of either. <i
