Looking at Hybrids and thinking it might be something I could do something interesting with. I've looked at the program's pdf instructions and the .hybrid files floating around but I'm not seeing what I'm looking for, maybe it can be done though. For example, a flame. I'd like it to randomly start up (that is covered by "MinAnimationLoop" and a negative "AnimationGap"). But when it starts up I'd like for it to go through its loop say 3 times at one point, maybe 7 tim

A lot of those skins have been gracing my computer for quite awhile. [e digicons]|-)[/e] Had to track down Zippo Blu and snag it, had no idea that was out there. Site bookmarked [e digicons]:star:[/e]

XPHomeSP3 with MSExcel version 2003 (current patches) I know, old o/s and ancient app, just throwing it out here in case it's useful. EDIT: ***Only seems to be happening with Windowblinds running. Tried it with Gloss Black loaded and Polaris loaded, crashes on both. Doesn't crash after unloading Windowblinds via systray unload. Crashes Excel: Enable WinFX4 Config HomeTab "Add additional options to the window right click menu". Go to

Been so long since I did this I don't remember exactly how it works but - Double-check your email address within Impulse, make sure it's right and the same one you're registered with at Stardock.

You can delete the theme's file directly using Windows Explorer. If you are really using an old CursorXP and not CursorFX they will probably be in C:\Program Files\Stardock\CursorXP\Themes (I think it was "Themes", been awhile). If not there then the newer version have them in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Stardock\CursorFX (or maybe CursorXP)\Themes. You are looking for files with the extensions of .CurXPTheme or .CursorFX. Make sure you don't delete

You can use whatever version you're entitled to [Cavan's post] for as long as you like. Not quite sure which you were asking, don't want you to miss the sale wondering.

I found these 2 by searching "clock" in the OD gallery: https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/objectdock/6433/ https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/objectdock/2249/ They're kind of old, not sure that they still work. Even if they don't it might be a place to start if you want to tinker. Searching a gallery is a little tric

I honestly have pretty good luck with DeskScapes on XP. Have a little trouble pulling some of the video dreams, but it is after all an old box, not a great video machine in any shape or form. The Hybrids and Dynamics run well with low cpu usage. I'm just happy, grateful, and a little surprised that Stardock bothered/managed to get DeskScapes working on XP. When I saw Vista's DreamScenes and DeskScapes I thought "I like it, but I won't be seeing it in the ne

Might very well depend on which version of Object Dock you're running. On ODPlus v1.9, go into Configure Object Dock, "General" on the left list, "Miscellaneous Options" button about a third of the way down. In popup window that appears, underneath "Label Fonts", uncheck "Show labels on zooming docks". Sorry, I'm not familiar with versions other than Plus1.9, so if you're running one of the others and don't see that option someone else will have to help.

[quote]-Autohiding zooming-docks not functioning ideally on multiple monitors is a problem that will not ever be fixed. This problem exists in the free version as well and is fully discoverable in that regard. Due to the way in which the program's visuals are designed, it is simply not possible to fix the problem in a way that would also be acceptable from a performance standpoint.[/quote] Are you talking about the docks "hiding" on the shared edge

Bebi I think you're going to have to send Sales a note and ask them specifically if Koi comes with an unencrypted version to run without MyColors installed and if it works on Win7. It doesn't look like they're going to stumble on this thread. Otherwise we're all just pretty much guessing.

Seems to me that the free skins as a group, while being less numerous, have become much better than they were. Which of course is a compliment to those creating the free skins and certainly nothing to gripe about. That doesn't make the master skins any less master, but it does close the gap a bit. I buy my share of master skins and think they're worth it. If you don't see any you feel like buying, then just slurp up the free ones and call

Starting a ticket would be a good idea. In the meantime I can pass this along: Gloss Burgandy comes with 2 wallpapers, the bookshelf one pictured and an abstract which I think is what you're seeing. After you click "Apply" in my colors a window comes up which asks "Would you like to apply the selected elements below:" and lists a string of wallpapers. At a quick glance you'll see the wallpapers are different resolutions, but if you look more closely you'll see there

[quote]I have a total of 7 fans on my rig and 3 cats in the house. Hairballs![/quote] As a fellow zookeeper, I have found it very useful to put filter material over the air intake sections of the box. Nothing too heavy or tight, don't want to choke it off, and nothing that tends to drop strands/filaments. Something along the lines of low-end furnace filter material if it's not too fuzzy.
