The skins on here (WinCustomize) are for use with WB, not commercial apps. They are copyrighted, so you can't just use them. I assume that your company is working on a particular branding? Have they contacted Stardock Design to help with skin creation? (stardockdesign @ Stardock dot com) DirectSkin skins are not identical to WindowBlinds skins, btw, so you won't find a free library of skins for it.

Probably not luck -- he bought the ranch as a campaign prop before his first run for Texas governor Please post where we can read on this. This sounds like more liberal bs. Maybe all these people bought their houses in an era when people didn't look at politicians' houses, or when it was a big grand house instead of a green house that got you respect? So, people's persception on your house is wh

I was basically a single parent from Jan-April every year which is most of the school year. My husband wasn't around to help with schoolwork or any other household chore. I had three kids in three years. I had laundry, doctor appointments etc. What about the parents out there who are HomeSchooling 7 kids? You think they don't have laundry and cooking? The point wasn't single parenting. I'm not comparing myself to a single p

I don't think that the general release for sale is this Friday, however. I will clarify this and post specifics once I have them. This suite was p

The kids who don't have someone at home to help them (which is crap...it's adults choosing NOT to help or care at this level) just don't turn it in. So, you are saying that illiterate people don't have kids? Do you have no immigrants in your classes. It's not crap- the fact is that not all parents are capable of helping their kids. How does a teacher satisfy everyone? If I didn't send homework home,

I didn't understand two and three-digit subtraction with borrowing until my grandmother sat down with me once in fourth grade and helped me figure it out. My teacher just wasn't teaching it like *I* need to get it. It wasn't that he wasn't a good teacher, I just didn't understand. But, what happens if there is nobody at home that can help? The problem with relying on homework is that you are assuming that there are educated parents at home that

If I ever get this Windows 98 CD going Yikes! 98? That's almost a 10 year old OS..... eBay walks you through just about everything.

Repetition. We all learn from repetition. The HW is just disciplining the children by having them repeat what they have already learned in class The teachers on;y teach it once, then? The current teacher that my daughter has is very good. She goes over the same subject matter throughout the week, and attacks it from different angles. My daughter has had very little homework. The homework that she has had is very advanced, but

With any luck, when we will begin - really begin - solving the problem, simply solving the balance will tip strongly in our favor, and the corrections will be way quicker than planned - like with the Ozone layer -. But I would not make a bet on it. But, how can anyone really say that what humans do actually makes a difference in "global warmin

Why do the kids need homework while that young? If they are getting taught in school, why do they need homework each night? I understand reading each night, as there isn't enough time in school to read, but why homework? My daughter had homework every night last year. It was a horrible year for her and she felt stressed all the time. This year, she has a teacher that sends homework home once or twice a week. My daughter has learned more with this teache

Anything that decomposes creates CO2. You left out factory farms in your list of CO2 production caused by humans. Not only do all the livestock produce methane gas, but they also produce CO2 from decomposing waste. The slaughterhouses also produce CO2 since they have "compost" areas from animal parts that they don't use. Americans eat way too much meat now. From the USDA: "In 2005, total meat consumption (red meat, poultry, and fish) amounted to 200 pounds per pe

I have a few suggestions on the photo: 1) Your selective color layer is a bit too strong on your eyes. The results would be better if you desaturate slightly. 2) The image is srtonger if you crop off the top 1/4 of the photo 3) Your skin tone got a bit muddy. Is the photo a bit over exposed? Did you try adjusting the contrast before desaturating? 4) An almost desaturated sepia tone along with your eye color might have more striking results. </P

I miss my fiance. I just wish there was a way for me to talk to him more often. I cry about all this every night. I really didn't think that last night I spent with him in May was truly going to be the last. No one here (my family) seems to understand just how much this hurts and how bleak my life is. When do you plan to get married? Why don't you come back to the US on a fiancee Visa? It sounds like your parents will never agree with wh
