[quote]It's not "alleged" when the perp admits to the crime. I don't have to know every single detail of someone's life to see something is wrong in Wonderland.This isn't about a public execution...this is about allowing people who are sensitive to this situation our space to vent about it. We know Gid through JU. He lied to us through JU. We offered him help and support through JU. Is it so hard to believe we will vent our frustration, anger and disappointment on the same forum?[/quote

[quote]'Insightful articles' or not, every time Stardock allows this man to log on to any of their websites they are contributing to the continued neglect of those children. Sure, he'll just find another place to blog, but so what? At least Brad and crew could wash their hands of it and know that whatever happened, they did the right thing, the responsible thing, and kicked his ass out of here for good. I've seen others exiled for far, far less. (btw, anyone seen Col Gene lately?)[/quote] </P

My, this has gotten so out of hand. Nobody needs to interact with each other on this site unless they want to. The admins on JU are not here to make judgment calls on people's personal lives. However, we are here to make sure that people remain civil and do not impede on the blogging rights of others. If you guys want to battle this out, please do so in private.

Reply to Wallpapers HELP! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

When I moderate walls, I look at some very specific technical things: 1) Does it make a good wall? 2) Are there plain areas for icons? 3) Is it technically well done. The 3rd one is the difficult one. First, the style has a lot to do with what will technically be accepted. If you are making something in 3D (versus abstract or hand drawn) you have to be very exact with lighting, edges, color use, etc. I wasn't able to find the originals on

[quote]Cool! But how do the program know, that I don't share it with a friend?[/quote] You have to activate Object Desktop. If we start seeing a bunch of different IP's using the same serial, then we look into it. Otherwise, you can use it on two PC's as long as you own both. Also, you can always download and reinstall as long as you have an unexpired subscription. Otherwise, you need to archive your programs to reinstall after your subscription ends.

I didn't read most of this because it's too annoying. 1) KFC- be warned. JU does NOT allow you to use a bloggers name in your article unless it is for "good". You say you don't flame people, but all you are doing is throwing stones. 2) [quote]JU is just feeding your self pontificating addiction.[/quote] Gee, you think? It's a freakin' blog site!

I think that there have been a few people on here that wish they wouldn't have disclosed personal info on here (people can always keep blogs private if they want to write to purge, but not write for others to see). I truly hope that you, and your family, get yourselves back on track and become the family that you want to be. People make mistakes- it what you do after realizing the mistake that makes the difference.

[quote]And everyone knows a pasted Toucan wallpaper is far harder to make than a "femine" windowblind.[/quote] The effort that somebody puts into something has nothing to do with quality. Vlad draws all his wallpapers by hand- he creates his own images. How do you consider that "pasted"? Also, did you compare it to other walls that were submitted around the same time? It's a very well done wall. It is original, it appeals to many people, and most of all-

You should photo manip a bow at the top. That would look cool. Nice shot! Looks like cheesecloth? A netting might give you better results as the fibers are more translucent and more predictable.
