Reply to Rainlendar in Customization Software WinCustomize Forums

Rainlendar 2 is finally done and released and it rocks! I ran it just now for the first time, and it automatically transferred all my preset dates, appointments, birthdays, etc. to the new version. All I had to do was open the "Skins" folder of both the old and the new versions side by side on my desktop, and copy to the new version, close everything. Restart Rainlendar2, and it is so much an improvement! Get it. Run it at startup, and you'll never forget an appointment or important date again.

Smart monkies! We can do all this and it's still the same. "Man plans...God laughs". Right on, Arizona and Queensland!

Reply to Object Bar Theme Settings in Object Desktop WinCustomize Forums

I've just re-discovered Desktop X after years of not using it. Now, it's a whole new program! I've been trying different combinations of Object Bar 2, DX, Sysmetrix, ObjectDock+, and the matching bits and pieces. Yes, I agree, Object Bar 2 has a lot of potential (thanks, jeff!) and I check often for any themes or new offerings/news regarding this program. So far, only the one (new) theme, but that could change any time. I like the "chameleon" effect OB is capable of. It makes it easy to match WB

I wasn't able to change menu backgrounds either, and that would be an improvement. Ability to select font style would be really nice, too. I was able to change text color, however, on newly-created popup and drop-down menus by somehow, hit-or-miss, working down to the next layer in the config menu system and then adjusting color with the option provided on the Properties page of the form. Case in point: the "Stardock" icon at the right-hand end of "Minimal" bar didn't do anything or change

Yes! WATCHERS is good. Just read it again, and even bought it this time. How many? Many. I get a book from the Public Library maybe once every two months. Thriller/Mystery I read a book-a-week on my IPAQ 4700...Thriller/Mystery Beowulf, Kipling, R.L.Stephenson... Koontz, Gregg Hurwitz. some King, Patterson, Stephen Hunter, Ridley Pearson, Chrichton, anything that's well-written and holds my interest. Cub Scout and Junior Girl Scout manuals with the kids.
