New (Potential) series: Ask a Master

from WinCustomize Forums
The Master skinners at Wincustomize are a special breed of people. They done the time here.  They skin, they mentor, they skin some more.

So I'm going to try to suck them dry of anything and everything they know.  I want you, the community to send me your questions.  I'll collect them, pick out a couple, and try to collect answers to post here.

No question is too big or small; too general or specific.  It can target one master (but I'll probably open it up too many if I can) or one application.  You wnat to know how they started skinning, what's their favorit skin, how do they start a visual style, what apps do they use; ask and see what happens.

There are lots of questions I've wanted to ask of all these guys and gals at once.  In a perfect world I'd get them all at SD HQ and fire up a camera.

Having said all that . . . I don't know If I can pull this off.  I'll try if you will.  Send your questions to zubaz@wincustomize.com and we'll see what happens.

I think that the Masters will buy into this.  I think the community will too.

Wish us luck

Excellent Zubaz, this not only helps new skinners it also allows the rest of use to meet the masters. That even sounds good, once a month or quarter an article called Meet the Masters. It could work.

For me the introduction of the true Typonese language to the forums definately tops the list.   

Seriously, I'm not opposed at all to answering any question I can to help anyone I can in anyway.

Bring on the questions

I'll be writing some up today.

I'm going to try to compile and send off the questions by Friday, October 12th.

The Masters have bought into the project, now it's up to you.

Thank you to those who have sent in your questions already!

It's been reported that email through the site (by clicking on my mane in my posts) is not functioning.  It failed for me when I tested so  . . there you go.  The PM system is working so you can hit me that way instead.

(by clicking on my mane in my posts)

Maybe it needs some grooming?   

Seriously though, I see that problem here too... I don't know whether you've mentioned anything already, but I will let the web team know anyway.

Sent an email to websupport@stardock.com but always appreciate a nudge.

I found the problem . . . I DON'T HAVE A MANE!!  But clicking on my name fails too.
