Sysmetrix help please........... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I love this programme and some of the skins have an audio player on. Questions - Can you use this audio player to play CD's? Can it be linked into your default media player to play CD's (mine is Creative Play Center). Is it only linkable to Winamp?

I would like to say that "quality" is more important than "quantity". Having used both MSS styles in the past for some time and now that i am a converted Windowsblindite i can truly say that Windowblinds skinners have "quality" by the bucket load. The only really talented skinner in MSS styles that i ever came across in the type of skins that are my preference was Chaninja and i have a sneaking suspicion that he may join us here at some stage soon. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/sm

Yeah i have had similar problems withsome of the pre DX2 themes. I am going to bear with it for a while but if i cannot get some of my older ones like "Colony" to work properly then i am going to unintall DX2 and go back to an earlier version. [Message Edited]

EH.........You would need to more than just a graphics card upgrade to get an old computer to run faster..........you would certainly have to upgrade the CPU to notice any discernable difference. This then can act like a bit of an avalanche all newish CPU's are not compatitable with the older motherboards so you would have to replace that as well. And if all that is not bad enough your old system would more than likely be running old SDRAM and after shelling out your cash for the other component

look what i found. IR please accept this as a present as i reckon your SMITING STICK must be getting worn out by now Now if anyone else comes across something else that he can use perhaps they might like to post it on this thread alternatively with the undoubted graphics skills that a lot of you possess perhaps someone would like to design one for him and post it here. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/lol.gi

I agree with manni......Pixtudio, Skinplant and not forgeting The Skins Factory. All three of these have web sites and you can view them and get an idea of the work they do and some of the work that they have done for some very large commercial organisations. If you are looking for some Icons as well the best in the business are Paul Boyer at FauxS-X, Jairo Boudewyn and Fooods Icons. All in my humble opinion i hasten to add as there are many more top artists which I have not mentioned w

Reply to no more political threads for me, if you see me in one posting remind me and then chase me out! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I stay away from them as invariably they get heated and someone or some people end up going over the top and getting mad. I know we can discuss most things on these message boards but i feel this is not the place. Furthermore when people start loosing their rag friends are lost and enemies can be made and that is not what we want on this site. The reason i am here is for skinning and light hearted discussion and most importantly to make friends and learn about skinning plus help other potential
