Chas....what I do to make money never started out as a hobby....it started out as a career choice. Preparation is necessary in any career choice. And while you were learning about cars (however you did it), I bet no one was paying you. Chemistry was my career choice. But, no one paid me will I was studying in school. Then, it was just a

Reply to messed skin in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

As another hint, most good/great skins take three to four months to create. In that time, you will learn alot. And most of the great WB skins, are created by people with lots of experience in manipulating their choosen paint program. If you take six months, you will create a great skin with the beginning skills you have already demonstrated here. If you rush and make a skin in one week, you will be disappointed with the response and likely with yourself too. Take your time and learn the craft we

If you think about it, everything we do to make money starts off as a hobby. Playing music is a hobby, until you get a paying gig. Most people desire getting paid to do what they enjoy doing as a hobby. Most people study in school, the subject that they are interested in pursuing. It is just a hobby until you get paid to do it.

Reply to Loading Suites in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Theme Manager has always seemed really buggy to me and I don't use it. I would uninstall it, and download Winstyles instead. It is a free download.

I hear a lot of problems with people using Theme Manager, none with Winstyles.

You must realize that a lot of the icon packages will "skin" the system icons. It is best to find a package that will skin the ones that you want. You can do it manually, but most people complain that they have messed up their systems doing it that way.
