not on sites that hope to thrive. how many skin authors are gonna post skins to a site where the admins are going to ridicule their submission? thats the beauty of the free market. lots of choices. lots of people have said they aren't gonna go there. i know i don't. if i want to read kiddies flaming each other there are lots of better sites i could go to do that.
bizarre. if all the losers of the net got together to create a putrid black hole of hatred and uglyness then it would look something like customize.org. truly a tragedy. so who owns customize.org?
skinz.org is up isn't it?
moral relativism is one of the reasons why our society has become so uncivilized. in a world where no behavior is 'wrong' then there is no right. it's the easy way out.
doreen i think you miss the newness of things. so do i. now theres so many skins to choose from. i sometimes run with simple skins but often my skins are loud and crazy. like me!
good ole equivication. can't criticize indecent behavior because it's not indecent, it's just 'different'. pity. once upon a time there were concepts like right and wrong and people knew the difference. now it seems nothing is 'wrong'.
ya know there are now 3 different sections here that have wb skins. am i the only one who finds that obnoxious?
the style xp trolls used to spread fud about wb being a slow buggy thing. hell the style xp page still implies that 'other' with 'other' being wb no doubt slows down your system with system hooks. what a load of crap. i don't have xp so i don't care but anyone that anal about performance should be using no skinning at all.
gimme shadows!!!!!!!!!!!
there's warez users and then there's WAREZ users. some people act like stealing software is not just not wrong but a good thing. the net is full of people who think that capitalism is evil and that warez is a way to fight the power.
i am starting to hate web surfing. i end up with 20 plus browser windows open because of pop up ads from those sites. those pu's then open more pu's. is this what the net has come to???
funny that anyone would complain about things like skinning while the interface most people deal with the most is the web which is incredibly inconsistent.
this is pretty funny that someone would attack skinning! if they wanted to be constructive why not go after UI problems that affect everyone like every damn website having its own interface and own conventions. he's sweating themes on a personal computer while his site is hard to navigate and different from every other site? why not advocate website ui standards?!
anyone see the list of demands some of the other sites have made? they want skin authors to be anonymous and stardock's judging powers reduced to nil. ha ha he he my cynical half tells me that they are try to juryrig it so that they can give out the prizes however they want and do it under the guise of fairness saying that it was anonymous. i'm not even into skin stuff much but i can tell an alexandrie skin or treetog skin from a mile away without seeing any names and i'm sure these gentlemen ca
to people like this shog, every bump in life is an intentional slight against him by the world it seems.
at least they finally put forth in black and white their manifesto. i belong to a community, they belong to a scene.
came across this tonight. i dunno what 'the scene' is. written by one of the persons who administers customize.org. =========================================== i would like to take a moment to present to you the 12 thing s i wish to see as the foundations of the scene: 1. the scene is created by artists and hackers and only artists and hackers 2. the scene is targetted toward artists and hackers 3. the scene is dedicated to the combination of art and personal tec
i'm old. i'm fat. you don't want to see me.
i see shoggot has showed his true colors in posts on other sites. people like him are the reason people in the real world don't volunteer to do things. it's always some loud mouth loser in the back row chewing out the people who try to do something nice.
i didn't read hamster's remarks in saying there is no community. quite the contrary. i read his remarks as saying that giving money to tgtsoft supports no community in particular. do you disagree? if so, what community is tgtsoft supporting and how? as fb says, even stardock, which does very overtly support communities of users, doesn't use that tactic. when you act like a charity you raise the bar. where does that 20 bucks go? what support are they giving with that money?
what happens when you maximize a window?
apple might argue that it dilutes the value of their work and causes peopple not to buy macs.
this is like attending my daughter's schoolboard meetings. this mb needs a killfile so that we don't have to read the 'stardock is evil' horsesh*t from the hysterical anticommercialists. winstyles..winstyles..eh? hmm. mountain from a molehill. i've been using it since it was called convergence. it ain't gonna take over. here's why: it is a great program. don't get me wrong. but it is a lot of work to put together one of these suites. for kicks i made one today. it takes quite a few
i don't like the idea that they can keep me from making backups of my CDs. my CDs scratch like crazy and i have some that are irreplacable.
