Actually Turkey played very well. They were unlucky to have the penalty against them as Luizao was definitely brought down outside the area and the play acting of Rivaldo after Hakan Unsal kicked the ball at him was inexcusable. Although the petulant kick at him was yellow cardable I guess so the sending off was inevitable. As to Germany-Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia didn't know the meaning of a tackle. <img src="http:/

Chichigirl: To paraphrase you 'I for one have been hurt by your attitude to Stardock/Frogboy'. Every time I read your posts I feel angry, hurt and puzzled. I have bit my lip again and again but now I just can't hold it in anymore. Frogboy is not out to get you. Stardock are not out to get you. Wincustomize is not out to get you. I don't know if you misunderstand what Frogboy says or what but you seem to read things into his words that I just can't seem to get my head around.<b

DAK is russian so is possibly the best person to speak to as he also has one of his skins on there presumably without his permission. I have emailed him asking him to take look at this thread.

The problem is that there are two conflicting pieces of text regarding the ratings on GUIOlympics. There is : http://www.guiolympics.com/about.asp which contains: "There will also be two honorable mention winners in which they will receive a non cash prize (Object Desktop Sweatshirt, T-Shirt, Object Desktop Subscription/Renewal, Lightweight Ninja T-Shirt or other merchandise.)" and: http://www.guiolympics.com/news_comments_full.asp?NewsID=66

I didn't see a mention of how the ratings system works. There is something about rankings but that is a different thing. The only mention I saw was that Journeymen and abobve would be abl;e to rate. This apparently is out of date as I read above that Apprentices can rate too.

Brad: Just have to say one tiny thing. The reason ratings are not liked is that they are used as a way of limiting what skins visitors can see on the site. I may be wrong but I don't thing other skin sites do this. I can see the rationale behind this but when people abuse the ratings system (as some unfortunately do) it causes ill feeling. If the ratings were tied to comments (so a comment has to be made if a rating is given) they would be more helpful and less likely to be abused.<b

Judging from the only thing I have to use as a basis for judgement (your post here today) I think you are being a bit impatient Gregory. You didn't get an answer within half an hour on a messageboard at the weekend and you feel people are ignoring you. Have you ever visited the newsgroups at news.stardock.com ? They are the best place to go for advice and support. Stardock do not say that once you have OD that everything they produce will be yours for free. They say that any other products

Reply to StyleXP in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Yes Stardock supports this site. They pay for it after all. What jark is getting at is that StyleXP is not a product in the way windowblinds is because it does not actually do anything except patch out some security. The skinning is entirely Microsoft's work. Windowblinds on the other hand has been in development for several years and represents a lot more hours of work. You may be happy with it and that's fine but Stardock will probably not have themes for it on their site due to it being a
