Reply to Activation? in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Ah. I figured as much. My point, and forgive me if I've missed this in an FAQ or if I didn't make myself clear is that...when did Activation become a requirement, and what happens if I don't "activate"? Will WB5 not work? Will I not be able to load it or load extra skins? I'm very particular about what accesses the Internet on this machine. I also have a machine that doesn't access the 'net at all. What if I want to

Activation? in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

When I went to install WB5, a program "activate.exe" wanted to access the Internet. (I'm paranoid, and only select programs can even access port 53.) What's with the activation?

Reply to Rewriting deviantART history in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Jark has posted his side of the story (the part he could...some details aren't there because of legal ramifications) in his latest journal. I'd recommend EVERYONE read it. It does confirm a few things... http://jark.deviantart.com/journal/6119826/

For the record, Bookdiva is Scott's Mom. She's also one of the most vocal supporters of DA there is. Some of the deleted comments in question were from her journals...

Reply to Goodbye to Jark? in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Well, since I do have an account here, I'll offer my two cents... First, the primary focus of my request was to focus on the COMMUNITY over at DA. That's what has always been a focus for me over there. I've made friends, and formed relationships with a lot of people over there. That's one thing I feel DA has lost. As for "not submitting anything", yeah, I did suggest that. Moreover (and what might have been lost in this) was

Reply to deviantMEET is coming.. in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I just think it's a shame that Jark, one of the founders of DeviantArt, isn't going to be able to get to the meet. What kind of DeviantMeet would it be without someone who's heart and soul of DA?

The Soundtrack of a Life, Part One in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

Liner notes to The Soundtrack of a Life, Part One The following is part one of something I'd written (or at least, started to write) some four-plus years ago. I'd compiled a CD (all tracks I own legally, or at least, did at the time) of songs that had some importance to me, and decided to create a liner for the disc with my reason

Reply to Saw a possible rip, what should I do?? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hmm...I've found a rip as well. https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=8&SkinID=15612 I e-mailed Jafo earlier today, but I saw the image was still there. Maybe there should be a direct link, or an account created, for rips? Make it a little easier for folks to report them? Just a suggestion...
