Oops... I mixed up posts here... Edited to make more sense. :D

[quote who="vStyler" reply="23" id="2143467"]The Queen video was as funny as the Susan Boyle one was uplifting.. wasn't it? [/quote] I would have to say.... Not really... Susan had a way greater impact than the Queen video, but it IS darn funny and I sat here giggling to myself the whole time. :P To be as funny as Boyle is uplifting I would have had to be on the edge of totally uncontrolled laughing with a great risk of falling off the chair. Queen just isn't quite there. :D<

I really think the current previews are enough for most people who are willing to buy a dream. I can't see how a big effort like a distorted full screen preview would result in better sales. If you're not convinced by the small preview, I don't believe higher resolution will make any difference.

[quote who="samgoodman" reply="6" id="2142852"] How can showing a preview would put a premium dream at risk of being hacked? If you insist, wouldn't selling it would put it at risk as well? [/quote] Most dreams are nothing but a video. If you display it at full resolution, it *will* be ripped. Ofcourse, selling a dream puts it at risk too, but I have yet to find a single pirate who actually BUY something to be able to redistribute it (they would need to buy ALL

It would be hacked and we'd see all the premium dreams on piratebay before we have the time to spell "copyright". Sad but true. Shortening the length of the video wouldn't work for dynamic dreams.

[quote quoting="post"]So now that I have a Vista Home Preimum 64 bit system wiith lots of memory and a good processor to play with how about a few pointers on what I should look out for. [/quote] Here's a useful tweak: Run services.msc. On every service set on automatic, try to set them to automatic (delayed start). Most will display an error, but a bunch of them will not. It'll reduce diskload on bootup a bit, and reduce the time it takes before the system gets responsi

[quote who="Z71" reply="22" id="2140246"]Then why am I the one who looks like a bag of crap in the end.[/quote] Everyone does mistakes. Not everyone fix them, so in my book you're ok. I think you look like a (bag of?) human in the end, nothing wrong with that. Also don't forget that you've made a skin that rivals zing! and prowler in greatness, no small feat. (Judging by the screenshot atleast, I've had to put a shop-stop on myself, so can't buy it yet.)
