Reply to A Little Perspective on $87 billion. in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Heh, I wrote a blog about this very subject. I think the link was http://xendre64.joeuser.com/index.asp?AID=374 Bush was only elected because of some stupid people in Florida who couldn't write. Makes you wonder, how would have things turned out if someone else had been in the chair (9/11, Iraq). Of course, I am not trying to defend Bush. I'm saying that we need to get him out of that highly efficient money-wasting corporation before there's another stock market crash. Think:

Also, I personally like Avenger by MikeB. Sort of like Carbonix, but better. Let's see, anything by DuoPixels is usually top-notch, MetalColor is really good, Spectre2003, Steelix, Subterfuge2003 all are sweet too. Hey, most of those were made by our very own MikeB. Stand up for the applause, all of you! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle" ALT="Powered by SkinB

I gotta check out Realized. Sounds good! But wait! I just changed my skin to the WC premium skin Kryptonite by Pixtudio. It's cool! And green.

Neophil, the idea I had in mind was not for users to link to skins or say that they can find them elsewhere, but just to list what they like. Thanks Brainiac, I use Oxidglass too.

WindowBlinds Skin Sharing Post in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

No, this has nothing to do with P2P stuff as you might have though when you looked at the title... Currently, this site has...let me see...2,465 WB skins. Holy smokes! That is the most skins I've ever seen concentrated in one place except for Wallpapers and DA. I'm sure there are a ton of really good skins that are "buried" here, and not many users know about them because they didn't reach the Top Downloads list or for some other reason. This is kind of sad. Everyone who makes

Hey BoXXi, I'll do your job for you...Always wanted to do something to help this site after getting a subscription and that doesn't involve skinning becuase I'm not so good at that. Papidon, I think I have that same disease.

Reply to The Evil Nasty Bios Flash (Part 1) in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

See, this is why I WANTED a Gigabyte motherboard in my system. All GB boards have this feature called Dual BIOS, which means if you screw up the first one by overclocking or flashing, the board will switch to the second one. Handy.

kthxbye, Athlon 64 FXes are incredible and can beat the pants in every way (except price) off the new P4s. The benches show this. However, spending $700 on a chip that will be phased out in January seems kind of stupid to me. AMD will be releasing their 939-pin Athlon 64 FX very early next year, which promises higher clock speeds and support for unregistered RAM (costs less). Solution_Design, if its possible for you, I'd recommend waiting until the 939-pin Athlon comes out. It will just be bette

Reply to If you were building a computer what parts would you use? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I built my system in July, the specs are modest: MB: ASUS A7V8X-X (VIA KT400 chipset for AMD CPUs) CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2700+ RAM: 1GB Corsair DDR 3200 LLPT GFX: ATI RADEON 9500 PRO I don't know what kind of budget you have, either getting a new (800Mhz FSB) Pentium 4 or an Athlon 64 (FX for the high-end) sounds good. I'd lean toward the Pentium because the Athlon is brand new and yes, actually, really, costs more. (ouch) For motherboards, I've had good experiences wi

I think there was also a program called Y'z Dock. Never used it, I have ObjectDock. Y'z toolbar is actually pretty nice, at Designtechnika you can get a GANT set (by Mattahan) and I think there's an iCandy (by FOOOD) set there too.

S'okay, Shmoopy. Just intone the words "I am a skinner" into your mind by repeating them a hundred times every morning. That should remove your desire for emotions. Hey, it works for me.

Reply to Logons in library that won't install in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Sometimes an author changes a standard ZIP into a logonxp file, but without the ini in it. On occasions, the logonxp file you download actually contains two other logonxp files, which are what you really want. If this one doesn't work, try to open it with WinZip or whatever you use. If there are logonxp files inside (usually the same thing for different resolutions) just extract those and run them instead. That should work. <A HREF="https://www.wincustomize.com/index.asp?Cmd=fu
