Reply to This is gonna be fun!!! in Virtual Communities WinCustomize Forums

Oh good grief, PC... This is the internet, my friend, and there's always the danger of every keystroke, comment or rant coming back to bite you in the a** eventually. Just think about it as if you were in a room full of people, live, in living color, and without the benefit of cyber anonymity or the security of it being just you and your computer, would you make the same comments, threats, etc.? Probably not, but if you did you'd have to take what follows...just like on here.

Once you import it, tweak it. It looks to be a 60,60,60 - 35,35,35 gradient with a pixel of border...190,190,190? and another pixel of black bordering that on your bars. Probably the same on the menu, buttons, etc. so it should be a breeze to replicate.

Reply to Why do YOU do it.....? in Community WinCustomize Forums

It's artistic expression and a creative outlet for me. I can't paint, sculpt or carve (tried 'em all and failed miserably) so pushing pixels around is what I've chosen to express myself. And I think it is art, I mean, you normally have all the necessary elements (shading, shadowing, lighting, coloring, shaping, layering, etc.) using them all to try and convey an idea, thought, inspiration, etc. just th

Thanks for the kind words, Lantec & Bichur. I consider myself a true freshman, just a mere babe in the woods when it comes to skinning though, my friends. By the time I have all this figured out, here will come Vista and then it's back to the ole drawing board! On second thought, I believe you're correct, Jafo. Think I'll rescind my comment related to the extent of DA violations...I guess I've finally

Moderation in WinCustomize Site Issues WinCustomize Forums

Hello, Just wondering if you guys ever considered creating a "fast track" through moderation whereby established authors who consistantly play by the rules, being careful to avoid copyright violations, ripping, objectionable material, etc., have their submissions posted to their appropriate galleries automatically? Seems it would make the authors happy by having their work available more quickly, the customers happy by having possibly more (and better) skins available to them in less ti

Oh yeah, Acrylic is a remarkable skin! Just wondering though, did someone mention it was based on an existing skin? I don't have a clue about it is why I'm asking in general terms because no matter how much I may love a skin, I can't bring myself to vote for one that existed before the contest.

When I access the comments section of my Joker blind, nothing's showing except the following message: ADODB.Field error '800a0bcd' Either BOF or EOF is True, or the current record has been deleted. Requested operation requires a current record. /comments.asp, line 190 Checked a couple of the others and they seem to be working fine so help please. Thanks in ad

I believe I'll stick with the original plan, my friend, no sense in risking an atmosphere of resentment where it can be avoided... And thanks for the vote of confidence in my art. I try to consistantly maintain the appropriate mechanics of creating a skin although the graphical aspects are strictly in the eyes of the beholder...what I think looks nice may look terrible to someone else...and vise versa. <im

Question... in New Users WinCustomize Forums

Hi guys, I'm thinking of moving some of my themes/skins to this site although I don't want to flood the categories with new submissions. Is there a way I can upload them exclusively to my personal page and avoid them being listed as "This Just In"? Thanks in advance!
