WinCustomize 2010 Beta Feedback Forum [Read Before Posting!]

from WinCustomize Forums

Hello everyone!

Welcome to the WC 2010 Beta.  We are excited to be getting near the release of the new WinCustomize, but we still have many things to be worked out, and your help in finding issues and other feedback will be appreciated.  Remember, this is a beta and problems can be expected.

You can access the beta site at:

www.wincustomizetest.com

This forum will serve as the place to give your feedback whether it's a site issue, or general feedback about the site.  To make this organized and efficient, there are a few guidelines to follow in this area.

Tag posts with the titles.  Example: [Bug] Page Not Working

[Bug] Use this if you find a site bug.

[Feature] Obviously, if you want to give feedback on a specific feature.

[Request] If you are requesting something.

[Question] If you have a general question not pertaining to other tags.

If your post is something other than those examples, just tag the post appropriately so we can view them with some type of order.

The forums are not part of this beta, with the possible exception of a new theme.  Feedback for the forums doesn't need to be posted here.  If you run across a forum issue, please use the existing thread here.

Thanks for your help!

In IE for WB it open it and loads it right in to WB the old site WC you could at lest right click an save link as

but if it is in a zip then you would not have to do that it would give you the opption to save just WB out of a zip

Again.....I don't know what browser your using but I can click on anything...meaning the download button...on the old or new site and I'm given the option to either directly install it with the appropriate software or save it to a folder of my choosing. I've never had to to right click and "save as" on anything.

Just click on it and a window opens and YOU choose to open or to SAVE. When you choose SAVE you'll be given a choice where.

[Bug] Clicking on the blue BootSkins XP link in Featured Galleries takes you to the BootSkins XP Gallery. Clicking on Download Software takes you to BootSkin Vista. These two should not be confused with each other.

[Request]

can Dock Icons PLEASE be separated from the Docks/trays/zoomer/Tabs. when I go to the Object Dock location that is what I want not the Icons... Call it Dock Icons

Good luck.  You might as well try kicking Chuck Norris in the tenders as wish for Dock/Icons separation.

What's wrong with the Dock Icons filter?  Works for me.

DisturbedComputer...I stand corrected. Just tried downloading in IE which I hardly use and you are correct. And I could find no settings to change the way IE handles downloads. I use Firefox and don't have that problem.

WebGizmos I fixed it read my post abover your last post  but for Win 7 will look in XP

Reply #113 from WinCustomize Forums Top

Ok great! Yeah...I looked all over in IE to find a way to change that download problem but couldn't find anything. One more reason for me to not use IE.

 

Update: How to change the downloads in IE. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/177976

That looks like it only applies up to IE 5 Giz.

I'm using IE7 Bebi and it worked. ;)

[Request] Could "Recent Forum Posts" on the home page be linked to https://forums.wincustomizetest.com/recent like the old site?

Reply #119 from WinCustomize Forums Top

All the filters working now except in the WindowBlinds gallery the filters for XP, Vista & Windows 7 ready. All the other filters in WindowBlinds OK.

 

Still having problems with this, I am sorry to say.

 

Just like to say I appreciate how quickly these problems are being sorted, I also am very impressed with the new site layout, definately easier to navigate than the old one.

Ok...how much did someonme pay you to say that? I could use the extra money! XD

Reply #121 from WinCustomize Forums Top

[questions] I know that some of this may have been discussed but....

clicking on my moniker and clicking on "my site" comes up with the same page, and this only shows the most nine recent skins with no direct access to the others from there.

typing in gmc2 in the search in the combo box on brings up "gmc2" skins and not the others that were made under AKA "wimpy". (should I resubmit the others lol)

how do I change my personal information in the new settings.

where is "my skins"? I use this to monitor comments for the submission.

Just my opinion, WebGizmos, sure it is all different but it did not take long to find my way around, & I find it better than the present website, but there are a lot of sites out there that are very awkward to navigate. I also think that we have not seen the finished article yet, eg personal sites.

I know CY...just kidding! ;)

Yes I Know, never thought anything different,

Reply #125 from WinCustomize Forums Top

Is it just me or are preview images on new/updated skins not showing on the new site?
