Reply to Touring Windows Vista - Part 3: Controls, Apps & Games in Windows Vista WinCustomize Forums

This is at Adamness Why would we not want to rely on our OS for everything we need? I think thats the point of additional features. A fully loaded OS with everything. Same reason people buy fully loaded cars. Sure you can get aftermarket stuff for maybe cheaper, but will it look/feel the same? of course not. Mac OS X comes with everything you need (within legalities) and without banners or ads I might include. Windows instead offers you link

Relax? No, you people need to learn that "tongue-in-cheek" articles, shouldn't be featured on the homepage of a professional site. Keep ur joke posts strictly to the forum as a thread and not an article. Saying what you did, joke or not, would have spread the wrong message to those that didn't know any better, we want to spread facts not what one may think is funny, by poking fun at another os. You really need to grow up and keep frontpage articles pro

Gee, what rock have u been living under, Mac OS has been theming for years, and you act like you know everything? You really need to get informed before you make articles trying to sound smart. Shapeshifter has been out over a year and there was themeing before that as well, many Windowblinds themes have been inspried by Mac themes. Not to mention Shapeshifter is in version 2.4 not 2.0.4. You seriously need to research a bit before you make a post, bec

Has Theming Gone Downhill? in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I don't know how long its been since I have seen a skin thats caused as stir in the world of themes. Maybe I'm the only one feeling this, maybe not. With Vista nearing completion it seems theres been a drought in fresh original themes, hell even Mac replicas I noticed the decline before the release of WB5, it was hoped that with this release, new themes would surfac

Reply to Your thoughts on Marijuana in Blogging WinCustomize Forums

I love how even in 2006 people reply to an article written in 2004. Now I have cleared my mind since I have originally posted this. I still use, but I understand it all now much better. I agree not using clears your mind allows you to focus and think better, driving while sober is much better but can also be worse for those with road rage as marijuana helps relax. That is the only reason I still use is simple to relax as I have a life full of stress an

Heh, yea I have. I'm not going to be using them until they add support for additional buttons such as rollups and I'm still fighting for the visibility options to link buttons together.

Calling It Quits... in Life Journals WinCustomize Forums

It's been some time since my last skin, and an even longer time since my last original skin. I've been working on different skins over the last year, and I have some outstanding designs. Although it seems the farther along I get, and closer to finishing the theme the more problems I run into. Time after time I have run into problems due to the restrictions Windowblinds has. Now some of you may tell me to simply suggest it to Neil, but I have conversed

Reply to How To Make Windows Look Like A Mac in OS Customization WinCustomize Forums

Sorry about the late reply to your questions above, I have been very busy these past months. Life has gotten a lil hetic for me and I'm just trying to deal with the things one by one. Now for the problems with the skin. Everything you see from the Menu's to the titlebar glyphs all appearing at the same time. That is how it is done in Mac OS X and that is why it may appear odd on Windows. I made the skin as accurate as possible and down to ev

Reply to iPod Nano screen scratches easily.. in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I'm not surprised by this at all. Apple is a very "greedy" company when it comes to music and specificly their iPods. They are more than happy to take plenty of your money at first and then if something goes wrong, oops? they don't cover it, and if they do, they will take their time shipping you a new one. If they don't cover it, they will be glad to take more of your money to give you another one that will most likely break of the same problem or a ne
