It is not that impressive though, everyone (including me) can follow a tutorial. Actually not everyone can follow a tutorial. I (personally) know of many people that can’t follow a tutorial even after I sat with them and guide them thru the process. Also, not every one has the necessary program/s to

My thoughts and prayers to everyone in London and around the world affected by these horrific events.

"Professional skinning" is not even third class when i compare it with the quality level of real designers work. That's because there's a world of difference between Engineer Design and GUI Designs. It will be absurd to compare the two.
Congrats Pixel Pirate and thanks for sharing your great work.
1) That is the reason why trial versions are offered, so the public can try/test the product before deciding to purchase it or not. As it stands right now there are over 5,000 free skins between WindowBlinds, IconPacks and Cursors against a dozen or so premium skins/sets. Also, not every artist gets to make premium skins there for the quality of the free skins will not be compromised, yet the quality and features of a premium skins tends to be much hi
it would be easier to resolve the p2p issue first. The p2p issue has been resolved by the Supreme Court, there is nothing you, me, jafo or anyone here at the forum can say that will change the ruling. Continuance of arguments would be like beating a dead horse. But I do find it odd that a
I'd like to see a separate sub category in OD for backgrounds though, they are kinda difficult to find... Ditto. Altho' when I want to find backgrounds I use the advance search feature and then check the background box. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Wink.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle

Vasqo, you are like a person with a cement block tied to the ankles trying to stay above water. As it stands right now, illegal copying, sharing and downloading of material that is not your own work is against the law and it is punishable. No buts no if's. Having a website or providing a way where such material is been exchange makes a person liable. And no matter how many arguments might spark or how many comparisons to automobiles, gu
Kona, that is because you probably live in a state, city or county that doesn’t give points for moving violations. Here in Dade County (Miami, Fla) you get a ticket ranging from $50 to $120 depending on how many miles you are over the speed limit and in addition to that you get 2-4 points on your license (depending if you have previous infractions) collect enough points and you'll get a year suspension of your driving privileges. If you don’
Sembetu, as I mention a few posts ago, you are comparing apples to oranges. GM could make and advertise a Corvette that reaches 300 MPH that still does not change the country's speed limit. When you go and purchase a 'Vette, you don’t do it thinking "wow, I'm going to push this baby at 180 MPH on the 55 MPH zone where I live" NO, because you know better and you know that you are liable to get a big fat ticket plus a few points on your license. Common
Vasqo, age is irrelevant to anything that is and will be decided by lawmakers. Bottom line is; crime committed, crime penalized. Slice it anyway you want it will not change the outcome. There are things that can be stopped all at once and there are others that have to be stop one by one. The later applies to the current issue. And if history has taught us something, is that you can get away with some things sometimes, but you cannot get away
Thank you everyone for the replies. They are as much appreciates as they are encouraging. I’m really glad to know that you all like my work. WOM , the constant thought of you catching up to me is what keep me skinning <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/
Thanks to each and everyone that has downloaded my skins and thanks to those that have help me improve my work. Let me go back to work now. Skinning is a never-ending task.........Ahhh, but how I love it!
Ahhh, but Jafo, at 100+ you still get the satisfaction of looking back and admire how grand you were at 20 something.
you can be rest assured that another similiar operation will spring up and people (including me, cos theres no (edited for language) way I'm paying $22 dollars for a single cd I suppose you will feel the same way when anything you try to sell gets taken away from you by someone that feels they should
Someone will and can figure a "workaround " again....right? I'm not saying it's right but saying it will always be. That's all. This is/could be true just as there will always be thieves and killers among each community but that is not going to stop us from protecting our selves against them or for
I remember my 20's
Vasqo I am not targeting your argument and as everyone else you are entitled to voice your opinion I was merely pointing out the difference on your example. And I was generalizing on my argument. Communities often serve as ground breaking or platforms for individual to grow and expand in their unique fields. So just because a community (in this case the skinning community) started with individuals sharing their work freely doesn’t necessar
afterall was it not a drive to create and a desire to share those creations the basis upon which the skinning community was founded in the first place. Not exactly, and again this is the misconception part of it all. The developers that created these software that we like so much and that enables ea
Ummm no its up to the law. WRONG. The law cannot make me give anything I create for free. It is my sole descition to do so.
I buy most of my music, and Ill say im am seriously sick and tired of you guys and your soap boxes Ahh, in a perfect society you can just browse out of this page and free your self from the soap boxes. And I would love to see your reaction if you was ever to create something of your own to earn
But the point of art is not to make money, but to pass along something which can be enjoyed and observed by other people. This descition is up to the artist/creator not up to the general public to decide what is free to view/observed/obtained. As an artist it's my sole descition to create something
