Political correctness was invented by those who lack the nads to say what's really on their mind. How can anything be resolved if discussing certain subjects is taboo. I respect outspokeness whether I agree or not. It's those fake, phoony people who really scare me...kind of like the dog who doesn't bark but sneaks up behind you and bites you in the a**!
I suppose selling skins isn't a bad idea as long as the Windowblinds section isn't innodated with premium content to the point of pushing free content to the side. I (and I assume others) skin purely for pleasure rather than for profit so if it became too commercialized, I doubt I'd have the enthusiasm to create that I do now...
Usually try to refrain from profanity but gotta say: "Damn! This is Great!"
Slow... I can hum the entire "Jeopardy" theme between pages...
Vista RC1-Design by Microsoft Corporation Wall-ABC by Adni18 My skinning machine stays a total mess with pieces and parts of what I'm working on at the time so this is about as consistent as it gets...
A WB I'm calling "Orange Crush"...it's black and...uhhhh, orange, as the name implies. The wall is a Bryce rendering...lots of depth, super dooper glass and you guessed it...orange! It's about finished...just adding the little details and making the final fixes throughout so instead of a screeny peek, look for the real thing in a day or so... <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 AL

Wow! I'm genuinely humbled and surprised that some of you have placed your confidence in my work so I'd like to say Thank You very much! As far as a featured artist though, I'd have to agree with S.K. that maybe strong consideration should be afforded some of the newer skinners...especially if it would motivate those "on the fence" to try their hand at skinning. I'm relatively new to this site but I've
Happy New Year! It's sipping on Liebfraumilch for me...what's "snog"?
I used to love Aston, used to love skinning it too, but after several years of waiting on the elusive and much touted Aston2, I finally gave up on it....
You might be able to do it by adjusting your screen refresh rate (proceed at your own risk!) but if your video adapter doesn't support the resolution, it's probably going to look terrible anyway....

I don't share the enthusiasm in celebrating the death of another human being, even someone who probably did deserve it. It seems to cheapen the value of life somewhat, don't you think?
Happy Holidays!

Same here, Betty... What I've learned has come from trial and error, examining popular skins in SkinStudio, what information I could pick up on the forums and considerable sweat equity. I guess sometimes I forget just how overwhelming (and frustrating) it is when you first open up SkinStudio and be faced with all the different sections, subsections, settings, elements, graphics, etc., etc., etc. without a complete, detailed tutorial as a guide. <i

And I hope a new SkinStudio manual will include lots and lots and lots of screenshots because personally I can get more from a visual presentation than from alot of written documentation. That's just my preference though...just like tomorrow, if something needs to be assembled it'll be, "I don't need no stinkin' instructions, just show me the picture on the box!". </fo

Being a relative newbie on this site and maybe a little spoiled from the instant gratification I'm accustomed to at Deviantart and Skinbase, I'd personally like to see the moderation process improved. I've noticed alot of posts throughout the forums from people experiencing problems with long delays before their work is posted, their work being lost and having to resubmit multiple times before it's posted. You really can't blame people for being a little anxious and impatient when they've put fo

I agree, daft... Documentation and instruction manuals are wonderful tools to have although you can provide the most detailed, comprehensive documentation known to man and if one lacks the desire to learn or doesn't want to put forth the effort to create they won't...regardless. As vStyler correctly pointed out, if you want to learn, you will...if you don't, you won't.

I agree... In a world of excuses, blame and pass the buck, it's refreshing to see the man at the top stand up and take responsibility for his company's shortcomings. You've earned my respect and I suspect with that type of attitude, you're destined to success! Merry Christmas everyone!
Still can't understand the flipping the bird thing though. Maybe one of the youngsters can explain it cuz I just don't get it... Guess I'm just too old school...and southern, but getting flipped off don't do anything for me but turn this neck of mine a touch on the crimson side.
