Member Spotlight: WebGizmos

ObjectDock Background creator

If you are a fan of ObjectDock, then this weeks member spotlight should ring a bell.  WebGizmos has been a member of WinCustomize since September 2003, and during that time he has built up quite a large library of skins, most of which is in the ObjectDock gallery.  WebGizmos specializes in dock backgrounds, and he is one of the best when it comes to making either new docks, or docks based off of WindowBlinds skins.

I see about 14 pages in his gallery with just a huge selection of dock backgrounds.  If you are looking for a matching dock background, you will most likely find one here.

There is in the works "Object Dock 2" with an included feature called "Fences"


"Fences" looks like a total trip!

Thanx for the 4-11 Shelby GT, I'm signing up.

Now now Webgizmos... You really have nothing to be sad about. Some people are very busy doing things other than working with computers and such.There is a lot of things happening which are good and that should make up for the things that could be missing at the time.

But there are always somethings that get me down too. So in a way I know where you are coming from. Some how I get around it though and find it is better after a while. I need to with draw sometimes to get my brain to working right again. That or it gets clouded up with crazy stuff. Then that drags me down to where it makes things harder than they really are.

Anyway it is always a better tomorrow and things get better with time. Least so they say they do. All I see is whats in the mirror and it aint getting much younger or better for that matter. But it does somehow...

Tomorrow is a better day here too. I got this major project at work for some new equipment that is going to payoff like ever. I love that "new stuff" it is like toys. You never get enough of them.

hard to find time though.


Aint that just the truth... Ive tried to make some graphics but it just takes too long. Ive got ideas, shedloads of ideas, but havent got the patience or time to do it in photoshop. Im a perfectionist... so if it aint right ill end up changing it.. and being a boob at PS that will be a lot of time spent changing things. Time which i should spend filling up my art portfolio and just doodle in general lol. Although i do need to learn PS for when i get me wacom and practice digital doodles... ahhhh the time!! *cry* :SNIFF!:

It's called "fashionably late" or some ms like that. :LOL:  It's great to see that my mentor and all around good guy WebGizmos has gotton some well deserved attention. A ways back, I started creating docks (crappy docks) and this fella jumped in and gave me some advice on how to make them better. I kept asking him question after question and he kept answering them. WebGizmos was the reason I started skinning docks and to have the greatest teach you how it's done is awesome.


So WG, here's to you buddy! Keep up the great work my friend!

And you've had my vote for Master for a long time. Let's hear it WinCustomize!
