The 'no' topic thread... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Let me start by sharing my poetry... Titled, FEAR It keeps me awake when I should try to sleep It takes away my laughter and causes me to weep It increases the rhythm of my fragile heart?s beat And I?m afraid to stand alone on my own two feet? It?s fear It keeps my legs hobbled so that I can?t try to run It takes all or any pleasure out of having any fun It robs me of my faith and any hopes for my tomorrow It rapes me of my integr

Thanky Doreen and KG. Having things explained that way I don't feel quite so criminal now and I'll be sure to not drift into idle chatter. I guess the term "thread hijacking" to me sounds hurtful as if I'm trying to be mean on p

Reply to NOTICE: Off topic Posting in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Nehyah Admittedly, I used to hang out here too much for my own good...I probably was one of the most notorious people here as far as going off topic is concerned (and giving people hugs and greeting people along with answering questions when I could or trying to cheer them up if they came onto a thread and seemed down and out). I dunno how many I entered 'early on' and went off topic ...but I used to make a lot of my own threads way back when too. Ah well, live and learn. I've

Reply to Filter by color in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I've often thought this very thing too...not just for wallpaper but for all of the skins. Like maybe a check box a skin/wall author can put in for silvers/grays/blacks red/pinks/oranges or perhaps cool tones or warm tones. I dunno but it would make it nice when you are trying to search for something to match a theme you're making on your desktop and be able to search by color/tone etc... I know there are multi-colored skins/themes too so maybe a checkbox for multi? Ah well...just rambling and dr

Ingui, I'll keep this short. I have used PSP 6 and 7 and after using the 8.0 beta and going 'gaga- over it I pre-ordered 8.0 and really it's just PSP only better once you get your feet wet you'll see. The only suggestion I would give you if you do purchase 8.0 is to order it 'physically' from Jasc. It's an extra ten smackers but you'll get the physical CD along with a very LARGE user guide with many tips an

Red Robin's steak fries are pretty addictive. Thick 1/2 inch sliced 'home-style' cut fries deep fried to a perfect buttery golden crispy blonde and soft and moist inside. But I dunno if everyone has a RR in their neck of the woods. Now, where's the "Anything goes... Off topic thread" thread? <b

Reply to Please, do something about it! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

*Keen insight* I like being judged by the admins...they've seen everything there is to see here...and I generally take to heart their initial rating no matter what I'm rated later. This is not because I think they are "GOD" but because they see a LOT of work and judge it accordingly. So, I always make note of my first rate and keep it in my mind. When an admin gives me a starting 7 I feel quite honored. My heroes here remain the same...Adni18 feels a bit hurt but nobody should

Reply to Please, do something about it! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I consider my ratings from the admins to be very fair even though sometimes I've had my doubts . Usually I'm a 4-5-6 and lucky if I get a 7-8 from the admins and it goes from there. But 'skins' are still 'out' there so people will vote you eventually what 'they' think you deserve. Walls on the other hand are a different story. And I don't think ANY admin would HONESTLY allow a wall they tho

Reply to Please, do something about it! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hmm. This is something I truly don't understand. If someone is higher ranked (Master, J-men) their auto-vote is a '6' which is very fair as far as being in the 'skins' category whereas almost everything is auto-accepted in skins anyhow as long as it's functional, only exception is walls tho? Why can't '5' being the 'mid-range' be the general public number for walls? The 'general' audience can then have access and the rest of the people can vote it as they wish but at least it has a chance to be

AMEN, Jafo and Dark! I do think with wallpapers it's a different sitch because wall authors don't even get out of the 'gate' on initial submission to the 'general public' without at least a 7 rating...I think? Mormegil, I love your new skin but I haven't rated it as yet because it won't resize th

Reply to Where do I extract a mouse pointer scheme to? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

If it is a .zipped file you need an unzipping program like Winzip to extract it and once extracted you browse for the .curXPtheme file then just double click on the file and it will auto install into your XP theme directory which will then be available in your mouse properties under the "cursor XP" tab under the name of the cursor (alphabetically listed). I dunno if I just over-explained that. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/notsure.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absm

Listen guys, Cheer up k? I’m back. Sigh But, the reason I’m backing away because the stress of being “shmoopy” was just too heartbreaking for me especially after getting an email from one of the admins I loved and respected a few weeks ago that basically stated I ‘hijack threads’ and that people had emailed her complaining about my activity on the board even though I felt that I was barely posting at all as it was and the little I posted was positive at least in my heart. But ‘sh
