Reply to The Last Few Days Have Been Bloody Awful. in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

It seems if anything bad can happen, it happens to Mark. I'm very disheartened to hear about this latest travesty, Mark. You're a decent guy and don't deserve this crap. Even though my rig is much older than most (I built it when the CPU, an Intel i-2600k, was first released), I've been thinking about updating my security apps and system with it due to fear of what has happened to you somehow happening to me. Maybe now is the time to do it. I'm really sorry you have had to experience this cal

Reply to Happy Australia Day... in Community WinCustomize Forums

Happy belated Aussie Day to the land who created and broadcast Packed To The Rafters. It's my favorite show of all time. If you haven't seen it, give it a shot. Seasons 1 thru 6 are on Hulu. Seasons 1 thru 4 and 6 (why skip season 5) are on Amazon Prime. The reboot, Back To The Rafters is on Prime. I've come to the conclusion anything Rebecca Gibney is in is a good show. Enough of the commercial,... HAPPY AUSSIE DAY, everyone!

i just finished off a big pot of traditional ground chuck, italian sausage, bean, onion, and tomato juice chili. i absolutely love the stuff but the older i get the less it loves me. tomato juice wrecks havoc on my stomach anymore. i started making white chili a few years ago and it may be my go-to chili from here on out. i found a Paula Deen white chili recipe that calls for collard greens but i'll substitute baby spinach and kale for that. i may make that next week. saturday, i'm planning o

Reply to Master skins in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I don't mind paying for a skin every now and then. I appreciate essorant (retiredmaster) releasing his skins as freebies though. I really appreciate him making some skins for Curtains too. Honestly, I've found myself using Curtains more and more. I check the WB library every few days and if something intriguing has been released I'll download and use it for a few days. I don't think anyone has moved up a tax bracket with his/her earnings from master skins. The skinning community isn't as popu

[quote who="Hankers" reply="29" id="3815488"] Nothing has changed. Free skins, yes they go thru without moderation. Master skins (paid) have to go through a process. Note: Journeyman and above free skins already in the galleries, if edited by uploader and resubmitted, will require moderation. [/quote] You are absolutely correct. My mistake.

Reply to Stardock Announces Start11 - Get into the Beta Today in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Since my old rig does not meet the current minimum hardware requirements to install Windows 11 and I'm not going to build a new one, is there anything about Start 11 that will benefit a rig running Win10 and Start 10? I'm assuming Start 11 is meant for Windows 11 only to be honest. Am I wrong in that assumption?

Reply to Important to remember before updating to W11 in Windows Discussion WinCustomize Forums

"upgrading" to Windows 11 won't be an issue for me since my 9 year old system that still does everything I need or want it to do can't get Win 11. My mobo does not have and can not get any TPM. I'm not building a new system just to get Win 11. This rig was a top of the line rig when I built it. To me, it still is. Of course, I've added things such as SSD's, more HHD's, and new vid card. To all of you who install Win 11, I wish you good luck and enjoyment. Maybe some day I'll

[quote who="LightStar" reply="6" id="3811131"] When I get paid by Stardock 4 times a year for my Master Skin sales (which have been horrible for the past 3 payments), I then give that money to help the poor and needy (which can be verified). I have been designing skins since the late 1990's when I did .MSstyle's for Windows XP using a company called TGTSoft's software (StyleXP and SkinBuilder), but when WIndows 7 came out, they shut down and I began using Stardock's great prod
