Crap I forgot to use the hyperlink thing. Oh well We have about 12 projects that are unreleased as our clients wait to release them Jafo. We have tons more being developed. But like i may have mentioned, most of the work wasn't WMP skins though we have done a few gadgets and only a couple of WMPs. There's more to skinning then just the categories listed on Wincustomize.
Can you show us some links to your material released to the PUBLIC in 2006? Well let's see... Gadgets for Vista count? Yahoo!

Considering I've been a member here since it's opened, considering i think we have the 3rd most downloads (translation: we contribute to this community), I think I'm well within my rights to speak my peace. So spare me the troll comment.
Loving the propaganda. The name of the article is a bit misleading though. Should be called the State of Stardock Skinning in 2006. Chock full of biased information. I'm glad some things don't change. Always need something to read when i have my coffee There are legal ways to skin Windows without Windowblinds. While Rafael's way isn't exactly sanctioned by Redmond they aren't sending out Cease and Desi
"StyleVista"? LOL. That's original.

Yes, I imagine they'd like you back so they can open the worm exhibit. LOL now I'm a "worm"? That's mature.

First: I've known Brad a lot longer than you so he knows its me behind the name. It's known. So your argument doesn't wash. He knows its me talking. Most of the old timers do. And I do not credit the artists. Show me one real Design studio that does? Frog Design? Nope. REZN8? Not a chance. The projects are done by our studio. We are not an art agency representing artists. Amateur hour is over. Its so funny how all these people ri

Perhaps some of you should consider whether you are "naughty or nice" if you would like Santa to be good to you. This should be the season to rejoice and be happy, not to bicker like children. I fall under the "Hanukkah loophole" so I get to be naughty and it doesn't affect my bottom line <img src="h

That's funny....I've never seen a single skin done by Jesh.......but I see he takes credit for them all. I'm not here as "Jesh", I'm here as The Skins Factory. Where have you seen me personally take credit for them? They aren't released under my name Jesh, they are released under The Skins Factory whe

If a theme looks good, it won't really matter will it? The most popular themes are the clean ones like Royale Inspiriat. In the end I would argue that all the extra eye candy (animations etc) gets old too quickly and are not needed. The ones with real "legs" are the clean ones. The ones that you want to use on a daily basis. The D2Bug: I have no idea who you are other than you've made a few Winamp skins. I have no idea why you felt the need

One more piece of advice Brad... spend more time running your company and less time of forum boards. For a CEO, you spend a lot of time (equate that to resources) on forum boards. That time could be well spent actually making command level decisions. I would surmise that the entire list of mistakes your company made in 2006 that you listed fall in the category of... your fault. As CEO of the company it is your job to make sure your management team does

The problem that I see is simple. You've bitten off more than you can chew. You've expanded in so many directions without having the proper resources in place. That means something is going to suffer. We watched it happen as you took bandwidth from Wincustomize and used it for the release of Gal Civ. This is an example of poor upper management skills. Your Executive team dropped the ball plain and simple. Now you're going to try and compete with The Sk

Jafo: No because I know who did it or suspected who did it. I figured Mike B did the theme since it looks like his work and Ian would probably work the icons. I didn't know for sure until the other day though. No my point is I got slammed left and right for not displaying who did what when we released our work. So much so that I had Brad doing a news blurb giving props to an artist who I paid. Which was tacky and frankly out of line. Its no one's business who does the work but mine since i'm the

Except there is no mention in the description of who's created what. I believe I have a right to say something since I've been repeatedly bashed over the years for doing the same exact thing. Only it's ok when Stardock does it. Isn't that just a tad hypocritical?
This release fixes all of the animation errors users were getting with our skins. Just thought some of you might like to know that.
Most issues should be fixed when it goes Gold. I spoke to them about 4 months ago about this.

There's more than 2 and the first set garnered more than 2.5 million downloads within the first year. We can't control how a client distributes our work. As far as your opinion on what beats what to death, you're free to like whatever you like. Isn't that great?

I'm a little surprised there are no props given to the individual artists since I've been slammed numerous times for doing the same thing. Who did the icons? Great job on them. The best part of the suite. The rest is just average looking but the icons are definitely noteworthy. Soon as I find out who did them I'm going to hire them
Battlefield 2: Modern Combat is like crack. I can't stop playing it. Xbox 360 is amazing. I play it on a 56" Samsung DLP (HD) and the graphics are jaw-dropping. Advanced Warface is to die for in the graphics dept. but i still prefer BF2.
Phoon: Are you the new Stardock spokesmodel? I must have missed the swimsuit edition. Any one have pics? My point is the patch is not some backyard hack like was stated. All it does is unlock Microsoft's skinning engine and it works perfect for me. So does StyleXp for that matter. I prefer going "native" than using a third-party solution. I can't afford a crash when i'm working in photoshop doing layouts or working on a contract. And while W
