Some of my best friends are skinners.... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

For those old enough to remember that joke, I don't need to actually say the punchline. It is close to two years now that I have been hanging around the skinning scene. I am fortunate enough that I get to hang out with skinners pretty much all day long. Millions of people come here each month for the art, but never get the opportunity to meet the artists as I have. So let me say "thanks" and tell

No one said Paul McCartney? You can listen to Yesterday and not get emotional? /koop is non-plussed! (someone plus me quick!) Did you ever hear Judy Collins in her Wildflower days? Annie Haslem of Renaissance. Listen to Carpet of the Sun or Mother Russia. Janis. Greg Lake in his day. And how about Peter Wolf from J. Geils?!?

Fuzzy Logic, I agree that "The problem lies with the fact that most of the posts we've had recently (and there does seem to be a lot of them), consist of someone stating 'blah blah this sux blah blah' and then disappear without trace." Since they have already disappeared, only those that remain actually read the responses. Therefore, don't yell at the ones that stay. Trolls look for a response. Deny them their masochistic pleasure. (If I misspelled masochism, you would have to beat me,

I can't control their (whiners,trolls, etc.) posts. I can, however, control my own. I will ignore the whiners and deny the trolls the response they crave. I will onle reply "You said something silly!" when needed. And if they really need to feel the weight of sarcastic invective-- I will tell bakerstreet! ( Or if they misspellef a word- Jafo!)

I am probably going to regret this but: Blog is the truncated version of Weblog. Everything that you might want to know about Blogs can be found at: http://www.rebeccablood.net/essays/weblog_history.html I found this link by going to Google and typing "Blog and defintion." If you learn to use search engines, you will be able to amaze your friends with your wealth of knowledge. Also remember that every know-it-all was born helpless and ignorant... but was determ

I've only been using it for two days, but it is a nice little application. The email notifier and recycle bin alone justify it. Besides, there are some pretty nice skins! Thanks for a good app.

Completely off subject, but on topic, did anyone else note the Jethro Tull allusion in Sally's topic? That put a smile on face! I used to use the always on top button for IRC before I switched to skinbrowser. Now I don't use it. But still nice to have.

"If anyone killed a person not as a punishment for murder or for spreading evil it would be as if he killed the whole of mankind. And (likewise) if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved all of mankind." From the Quran (5:32) Let us remember not only the terrorists who committed a terrible crime against humanity, but also the firefighters and police who risked so much and lost so much. Truly the Bravest and the Finest.
