I think a lot of the issues with DX have been covered over and over on the forums. DX "things" fall into 3 categories (as i see them). 1. [B]weather/clocks/Cals[/B] - SKINS - taking an existing widget, changing the location of the items in it, and calling it a new "widget". To me thats SKINNING, not Widget "creation". There are some AMAZING ones out there, but i think DX is so much more. 2. [B]Themes[/B] - these are desktop replacements. there are a lot of these out th

Bruce, You need to understand that the people at Stardock are like all of us, they like to poke fun at things. I for one have no problem in seeing the joke here. Its a shame you are so upset over something like this. If you want a company that has no sense of humor, than go to Microsoft, I for one LOVE the fact that Stardock has an awesome sense of humor, and that they love to poke fun at themselves. Having Brad come in and post things he does, these kinds of jokes, and the overall feel

[quote]Case in point, DesktopX. Is it really skinning? Sure you can 're-skin' clocks, weather widgets, etc, but original DX work is more coding/building than anything else. It's one reason I think DX is stuck in a sort of niche and doesn't flourish as much as the rest of the site's activity, because the site is so skinning oriented and DX, depending on your definition of skinning, is not. Vad_M recently pointed out the decline of DX activity on the site, and I wondered what is your take on it (n
