A serious question.

from WinCustomize Forums
I have spent the last two days converting ChaNinja's beautiful simplex subzero msstyle to windowblinds. So far all thats left is the toolbar icons. It even includes his animations. My question is if anybody knows ChaNinja's stance on people publically posting conversions of his themes? I need to know if its worth emailing him or not.

Travis - no one is going to answer for ChaNinja. Whether it's worth it or not you're going to have to e-mail him and ask.

The guy is well known, but I never see him on here. So I couldn't say much on his opinions since his opinions are never really spoken.

I thought he used to be here and left. If that was the case I thought he might have hard feelings against here thus not letting me post the conversions. Plus I thought that since ChaNinja has been around for a while that somebody else might have tried and been told no.

I'll just email him when I'm done.

same email addy as here and neowin. I left him a note in a forum over there that he has visited often.

I thought about it, and it may just be my email server not liking the address.

Start button is screwed up during conversion process...

Cute WC icon... you make that and Winamp icon? The Subzero AVI's are absoloutely stunning, specially Internet download as the globe spins.

Also font in User pane should be Hooge_53, can't remember its exact name.

I'l fix it I just loaded up the msstyle to look at it, I think its just a sizing error.

I recolored some icons to make those to icons.

and I like the dungeon font, but that isn't what I'd post it with.

He's a really good guy. You do need his permission though and he has been quite generous.

Travis.......Cha is sometimes very difficult to get hold of. He often disappears for months and then suddenly reappears as if by magic. I know a few people who might be able to help find Cha so i will do a bit of digging and come back to the thread. As Brad says Cha is a generous and very approachable person.

Travis, most people will give you permissions, you just have to ask.

I guess I'll have to wait. I've done as much as I can trying to get a hold of him. Oh well I can use the skin

I still have to work on the fonts though. does anybody know what fonts are supposed to be used in it. I have the hooge font right, but the others are a little off.
