RobJK...Sound Packager is something I forsee as being part of a unified software (like a total theme) package in the future. I think Snidely has a valid point..."Don't curse the darkness, light a candle." I've been guilty of being negative in the past...that's because it's so easy, and I'm by nature a pretty lazy guy. I really do hope you put together a package...so I can enjoy it! :D
Well, we all know what's going to happen if MS says "...by the end of 2008"...LOL. ;p Don't hold your breath unless you've got some [U][/U]huge[U][/U] lungs.
It is very reassuring that a government (occasionally) wants to do what's right!
The best from me....if I can help with advice or expalations, please let me know. The folks in the community really do care and (again) I wish you the best. ;)
The problem with the use of patches is that they maintain the same number of nicotine receptors in the brain...only by gradually decreasing the amount of nicotine in the patch can one reduce the number of receptors and proportionately the severity of the withdrawal. Chantix has recently been reported to have sleepiness, and depressive ideation as side effects. Try to avoid yo-yoing with the patches, vStyler: you're increasing the number of nicotine receptors. Talk to your M.D. about Cha

[quote]If I am reading Dr JO622's WinCustomize profile correctly, he is Male and 24 years old residing in the USA, which makes his serving from 1969 to 1970 in the IDF highly unlikely[/quote] In fact, I am 60, and don't know why age 24 appears on the profile. You did not write this "tongue in cheek", so don't try to back out of point that you try to assume the mantle of others' accomplishments.
Besides Kuperman's blog entry being completely self serving, the individual who wrote this is wearing the accomplishments of others as a badge or totem as if their accomplishments (not unique to the Jewish religion, and having nothing to do with it) somehow rub off on him. Too bad...they don't. Oh, and why were the pictures necessary? Arrogance should be esched. Pride, if justified and reasonable in proportions is not a bad thing. Why is just one group singled out? They did not do this
[quote]I think the point is that buyers of these themes won't have to care about the software . . they don't even have to know that they are "re-buying" it over and over again. [/quote] ZubaZ, there's something not quite Kosher about that...it doesn't ring right...I do get the point about it being a different market. It seems like alot of disk space is used up by duplicated software? Or, is it like Thememanager, and additional themes would use the [I][/I]same[I][/I] software? :NOTSURE
Takes special people to view things from the opposite direction...many would have been happy with just OD and other programs....looks stunning, but if I understand all this, each theme would come with the same software, and each would cost the same? I don't understand why folks would want to spend $20 each time for software they'd already purchased. I probably am just not understanding this as well as I'd like. After the initial purchase, would each additional theme cost a lot less? :NOTSURE:
I'm with you, Draginol...My case is my secret dust collector...why spend more to glorify my dust? I'd rather invest in some cool gadget. ;) Thanx for the update!

You don't know what the First Amendment to the Constitution is? Try Googling it. As I wrote before: Time to close this thread.
I served 1969-1970 Airborne Infantry, and after Medical School 1977-1980 Navy Medical Branch.
My objections have to do with the Antisemitism revealed in some of the comments and the appearance of religion where it doesn't belong. "If I don't like it I shouldn't take part?" Absurd, Fuzzy Logic. I don't like Antisemitism. I don't like bigotry and hatred of any sort. I served in the Israel Defense Forces. I fought in a war there and I've earned the right to protest "pro" [I][/I]and[I][/I] "anti"semitism. My protest has [I][/I]every[I][/I]business being here. "Here" is America. The First Ame
[quote]Can't go hating on him for that too much. [/quote] I don't hate him at all. I am upset that this is here. It has no business being here. Can't we speak about skinning? I thought that was the purpose of this site. Now I'm stuck on the roof, and at best I'm a [I][/I]Reform[I][/I] Frisbitarian.
Can someone please stop this thread? I am Jewish and find this whole thing very upsetting. I thought this site was about skinning. How does this topic have [U][/U]anything[U][/U] to do with skinning? What role does religion play in this? America is obsessed with religion/lack of religion/who believes what. Can't we end this public airing of private values? What is this thread accomplishing, Mr. Kuperman? Why on earth did you start this? Of what interest is all this? Next time stop at a traffic a
Why not make a widget to do what you do manually....and repeat each time. Probably a stupid question.

Always wondered about that...thanks Cavan1! I learned something! :CONGRAT:
[quote]Any illegal software is risky business at best and ill advised; it's just not worth it.

I didn't think of the people who think they're getting something great "free". TANSTAFL (R.A. Heinlein) "There ain't no such thing as free lunch". Thanks for your comment, rickalot.
[quote]Under what business model is this kind of comment acceptable? This should have been removed immediately & the person dealt with! Especially considering all of the shooting incidents this country has endured this year.

You shouldn't use this forum to threaten or give the impression of threatening anyone. Speech is free until you shout "FIRE" in a crowded movie
You know, Neil, even posts like this serve a value: They let us less knowledgable/savvy folks in on potentially or even actually illegal software. Many of us don't have the time to surf and learn about all this stuff so here's an idea...how about a guy at Stardock, or in the community having a section here that warns us about this kind of stuff, malware and infected apps....could do a body some good! If you'd like, I can post this in the forum as a separate thread (if you're planning to yank
One is almost tempted to say, "Elementary...."
Sorry for your trouble, Kitty. As they say, the best install is the clean install (ie...that's the first OS on the computer). Good luck....don't try asking MS for help, they'll only charge you an arm and a leg for what should have gone smoothly from the get go.
