The Community is.....us

WinCustomize Forums
I am feeling really inspired about some recent events on WinCustomize.
The first is the community skinning project begun by ^^Gabriel and c242. I know of several skinners that are devoting their time and effort to making this cooperative venture successful. All involved deserve to be praised.
Which brings me to the topic of people willingly contributing their time and efforts to "make things better." MadIce has spent a huge amount of time and effort to create an IRC help guide, so that chat will be less intimidating to newbies. If you visit #Wincustomize (and I encourage everyone to say "hello" at some point) you will probably be treated to seeing skinners helping others, a regular occurence. Some regulars that offer help include DaWebMassa, MadIce, PJPowell, Pas, Keila, Voodoo_Freak and many others. Of course, you will also observe the usual inane banter that makes it a fun place to be.
Deserving of special mention is the omnipresent GreenReaper. He seems to be everywhere and answering every question. It was great getting to meet you in person, GR!
Let me add that I am really inspired by the thread begun by Goodmorphing about our own KarmaGirl. She has recovered from surgery and I am sure that she will be thrilled to read the notes of concern and well-wishing.
So, what do you get when people help each other and care about each other? You get a wonderful community! Which is...us!
