Reply to Firewire or USB HDD Caddy in PC Hardware WinCustomize Forums

Thanks for all the info....most likely go with firewire. Still gonna get one that handles two drives, since there won't be much swapping or traveling with it going on...just having the convenience to swap drives out when needed. Thought about an external at first, but I tend to swap one of my drives out of my case every couple of years....so why waste it. I got two 80gigs....recently swapped for two 120gigs...just waiting for a new home <img src="http:

Which setup, USB or Firewire would you go with? I'm looking at one of the 2-bay units to put two drives in.

I just have one question for people who "never had a problem with XP" and that therefore there is no need to try something else: are you going to get Longhorn when it's released? No, but when I build my next PC, I'll put the latest version of Windows on it. <img src="http://images3.stardock.com/wc/smile

I just read the skinning readme, probably should've read it before commenting...a little rusty here. Everything you said in #4 is right. My take is that outsideborder affects where the icon starts...at least it works that way with tabbed docks. Where as topheight, bottomheight, etc. affects where the background center starts to stretch or tile, depending on the tilecenter tag. I've only made a couple of backgrounds for zoomer docks and I think that ima

Reply to background.ini tag trouble - see screenie in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I've had a lot more experience building tabbed docks vs. zoomer docks. I found it more difficult to manipulate a zoomer dock than a tabbed dock. Unless I'm mistaken the outsideborder tags only work with tabbed docks.

Corky O...you pretty much nailed it. Font size and margin settings for tabs in SKS will affect what JeRrYFaR is showing.

Reply to Shortcut and tabs into OD+ disappear! in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

After you have setup your dock, tabs and shortcuts, save your settings as a theme. Also it is recommended to close the dock before you shutdown your pc, since on some fast machines, the dock doesn't have the time to close properly and save it's settings before windows closes.

I'm switching to a new ISP (DSL finally) this week and sometime during the remainder of the month, I've got to switch over my email address for my subscription here, all the software I've bought from SD and my logon at the SD store.
