My dear old Pappy told me that "practice makes perfect".

Also what Jan said!

Woah, thank You! That was like over 18-22 years ago. Also I had big help from Gillon and a friend who never made it here (Liquidchrome). I remember we did the suite in 2 days and 1 night and litres of coffee with Liquidchrome coming over to my home with his computer with him sitting in my kitchen and me in another room with a network cable through my whole flat. Actually the iris in the theme was copied from a Storm wrist watch I had at that time. We sat there like 2 hours with me constantly opening and closing the watch and Liquidcrome doing the photoshop parts step by step. Then he would deliver graphical parts over the network and me cutting and pasting them into a DesktopX theme and doing an iconset, zoomers and containers. Gillon later got these parts to make the 1st WB theme for Windows 2000. I later took that one to migrate the skin to XP. BTW, I really worked with this desk. It looks really clunky with todays standards.

Sorry for the rather long offttopic bla, but I was overwhelmed by memories. And I MISS DestopX.



Storm Watch "Camera" and me doing things on my computers in 2000. At that time I had a private one and one from the company I worked for.

As Jafo said it the other day : "Jan has been around for a million years [but holds his age well]". That's many words for "Getting old!"  

Old??? He'll, I am 72! 🙂👍🤣

I am very happy to see an artist figure out Windows 10 start menu and explorer tabs. I know it has been a process getting it all figured out. The final product looks good as well. It has the retro feel with the modern day tools making this an excellent skin

75, here. Feeling like 95 with this crumby back, lol.

Not a lot of blah, Carl. Great history.   

You have. I haven't been here a million years, but my childhood play pal was Methusalah.

Wow, I am the rowdy youngblood here then with 57.  

I am 70!!!

Anyway Dark Christmas 22 by Don5318. Widgets and dock are for personal use........

The reverse of mine. Yeah, youngster. You're the kid. Why do you think we made allowances?

Don's skin looks great, Chasbo.   

76 years young

Yes, you are. I'm 64, but with today's flu or something with fever & a bad cough   I feel like 90.

Get well soon!

Thank you, Carl, and thanks for the nice story!

Missing: Decent dark Windowblinds 11,

 

There are a bunch of dark themes on deviantart. Though they are quite old, so idk how they would look now a days.

Well I would prefer Windowblinds 11. And a bunch of old themes crash WB and partially explorer here. And I have no time at hands to throw them into SKS myself.

We're almost the same age: 58 here. Kids. I guess we should be more respectful to our elders here.    

Get well soon Jan! I had Covid earlier in the fall and I'm just now getting over the flu. The flu was worse than Covid! I seem to be back to normal now. My wife didn't get Covid but had the flu pretty bad,

Thank you, Chasbo! I've tested negative for covid, so I just have to take it easy and let this thing run it's course.

Right on, Jan. Just rest until you feel up to taking on the world again.

I wonder...you have real chicken soup in Norway? Stuff's great

Not so much, and the ones I have tasted from cans are no-no.

Get well Jan. I'm 74 and just getting over Bronchitis that I caught on Thanksgiving. It's not fun getting older.

Thanks sureshot106!

Never from a can! My lady made some chicken soup yesterday...it's so good I think we have a cure for whatever ailes one. This stuff would have one doing cartwheels even if they were on respirators.

STORM... What a cool Brand it is.
