[quote]Btw, I guess I should update this thread too..IP4 4.09b cured all my issues with activation it seems.. I can run all parts of IP4 in sequence as many times as I want to without any of them nagging for activation.To be sure the beta contained activation I renamed the sig.bin and they asked for activation when they should (I only tested one or two of the parts this way).[/quote] I wondered about that. The release doesn't mention fixing that issue. Comments Zargon? .. or an

Reply to What SKS 5 bits are missing from SKS 6 in OS Customization WinCustomize Forums

What are the chances of having an update to this thread whenever one of these now officially noted missing bits are in fact added to SKS6? Could be very useful; especially in light of Release Notes being no longer kept up to date. ;)

[quote]You can trust that the mods take all claims to ripping (let's not beat around the bush here) seriously. But (and here's the big but) they will always try to moderate in favor of the artist. no matter who the artist is. If there is proof that something is amiss it will be dealt with. But with some visual styles the source is too muddled to be sure . . and we mods don't have the time to go through each skin in SKS.[/quote] Fair enough. I don't believe it serves anyone for a ski

I think I said this in a similar thread .. might have even been about the same ... altercation ... or a variation thereof. Regarding the issue John is referring to ... if the site admins/mods don't 'deal' with it, they are 'choosing' to let the members handle it in whatever way they feel is appropriate. ...

Reply to No, There is Nothing Wrong With Selling Skins! in OS Customization WinCustomize Forums

Island Dog, what you don't understand is that to an anti-capitalist which this person obviously is (I prefer the shorter and more profound term 'asshat'), offering a product or service for sale amounts to coercion on the part of the seller. Only the lowest of the low would actually offer a product 'for a fee' thereby [B]forcing[/B] the unsuspecting and powerless masses to 'pay' for something that by all Karl Marx given rights should be free! -Insert appropriate background soundtrack her

Thanks BDBF. If I understand right, you installed with Impulse rather than SDC? And had no issues? I knew there was a good chance that they both were the same release (although the large variation in dates seems damn odd), but about the same time that many posts were being made about the third set of numbers having no significance (I read them also), an Iconpackager release came out to fix an activation issue and, yep, only the third set of numbers changed ... which kind of shot that gu

Reply to Skinstudio 6 Freezing Issues in SkinStudio Help WinCustomize Forums

I don't know if this is what is causing SKS6 to crash for you but I've already found if you have overlapping margins on a piece, SKS6 will crash. Example: Toolbar is 30 px high; bottom margin is 17, top margin is 14 ... they overlap, SKS6 crashes. Open in SKS5 to adjust the margins for no overlap (SKS5 doesn't mind if they overlap) and SKS6 will be happy again. On the other hand SKS5 can break your skin; best to adjust the margins in notepad to be safe.
