Reply to When Did You Join? How Did You Find Us? in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I believe the date was around June, 2004. I came across WindowBlinds on some site...don't remember which one and thought I would try it out. I was tired of the same old Windows boring skins and wanted something with a little more kick to it. Voila, WindowBlinds was the answer. I joined Wincustomize and have enjoyed the best skinning site on the Web. Although I don't have the talent to make skins, I marvel at the talent that is displayed here at Wincustomize. There is a skin for every taste tha

Reply to Weekly Poll: Site Sponsorships in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I'm all for a sponsorship of the site as long as all of the sponsors are placed in the sidebar and nowhere else on the site. Even if many of them were placed in all areas of the site, on every page,they should all be in the sidebar and nowhere else! As a paying subsciber, I would be offended if they were placed any where else on the pages. Bottom line......Great Idea!

Another issue I have is when I download an update to WB,why are there several skins included in the download? I end up deleting these skins as I along with

Reply to Don't Want IE7? Some Users May Not Have a Choice in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I have been using IE7 beta3 for about a week now and finally had to delete it. MS went overboard with the security thing. It's too heavy on the system. With all of the security gizmos built in,surfing is a lot slower than with Firefox. Pages take longer to load and downloads take longer to start up.I got broadband to surf faster not slower. Microsoft is going the way of Norton by taxing the system too much. All you need is a good antivirus an

Reply to A few WB 5 Bugs I've encountered in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I had a similar problem with a few programs with the windows a little jerky. I'm running a HP 2.53 Ghz with 1G ram and Intel 845G/GE graphics. I installed 512MB ram to make 1G and updated the Intel driver and have had no problem since. I'm running WB 5 and everything is working great. Try adding some ram and update the driver.I got my updated driver from Microsoft Updates. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Wink.gif" bo
