Reply to How to set automatic installation for WBA file extension in win2000? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Thx guys. Right now the behaviour is that whn clicking a WBA download link, the WBA is downloaded to a temp dir, and installed to the WB theme directory, a 2nd WB icon appeares in the tray, with a tooltip, promising, that skin is applied if I click the tooltip, but it's not applied. Tooltip disappeares, and after some seconds the 2nd WB icon disappeares from the tray. However I can switch to the new skin from the WB config utility. This is a Win2k machine. Is there a chance, that the new

Yep, I have managed to try that on an Xp myself, and you're right, that's wbload, not wbconfig. Still, that setting is only for setting an action for doubleclicking a WBA. What I'm looking for is that when I download, it shouldn't ask where to save, but save it to the correct folder (all WBA's go there anyway) and load it automatically without being necessary to doubleclick or load from the configuration utility. Just the same way as a winamp skin behaves when you download it.

Logon uploaded for more than a week, still in "waiting for approval" state in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Did I miss something, or made a mistake? I have updated a submitted logon on the 2nd day after being uploaded. Now it's waiting for approval for more than a week now. Is it possible that it was rejected, just I don't recognize it? It mustn't be that bad. Actually the logon is using on of Vlad's wallpapers, with his permission. Is that a problem, that I'm using the artwork of someone else? Or is it normal, that it takes this much time untilit gets to the public libraries

How to set automatic installation for WBA file extension in win2000? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hi, when I download a WB skin, it is simply saved to the destination folder, with .wba.zip extension. (Win2k with registered WB and winzip installed) I have tried to copy the options that are set with WAL and WSZ file extensions, which simply have an install option with "c:\program files\winamp\winamp.exe" "%1". The same won't work with wbconfig.exe. Could anyone help how to register the wba file extension so that a downloaded WBA is automatically installed? Many t

Objectdock 1.0 eats up 100% of my CPU on a Win2k SP4 PC when I start apps in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hi, I wonder if this is a known bug, or maybe a confiuration issue. Time to time if I start an application from the start menu or from windows explorer or any other application, ObjectDock starts to consume 100% of my CPU. Only thing I can do is to end the OD process from the task manager. The PC is a HP/compaq NC 8000, running win2k SP4, 1,5 GHz Mobile Pentium with 512 MB RAM. Object Dock version is 1.0 (and some more zeros) which I cant upgrade from stardock cen

Reply to Why doesn't anybody hitchhike anymore? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I don't hitch-hike any longer myself. 'cause I have a car. 10+ years ago I started to hitch-hike from Hungary to Portugal. We had some of those cardboard signs. The sign said "New York". And "Portugal" of course. It was fun watching people in their cars, you could read their lips saying "NNEEWW YYOORRKK??". They must have thought they've lost their way. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/s
