Reply to WB7 doesn't shrink buttons with skins like Aero does in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Some skins have a smaller button than the Aero Orb, and they still don't expand. http://yfrog.com/6tcaptureyxp I put anymore icons on there and it doubles over to the next bar. With Aero it shrinks to fit around five more icons. It simply doesn't with windowblinds. edit: and I am just fuming angry :( This is my face here :( frown It is like someone took a [e digicons]:banhammer:[/e] to my [e digicons]<3[

Reply to US Congress Considers Orphan Works Act in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I think this is fantastic. Finally the artists have to do something, or its fair. You lose a wallet, you put up fliers. You lose a puppy or kitty, put up fliers. You want people to pay for your songs, register with this. Granted, I came in here expecting some law designating a home for orphaned children who paint and whatever very well. This is almost as good.

Reply to Most compact skin? in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I need compacter. I use eminence currently and for a long time I used iFlex. I need something along the lines of those. Eminence is too dark, even with trasparency, and iFlex looks too.. rubbery.

Most compact skin? in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I'm looking for compact skins. I use my taskbar on the left side of my 1280x800 laptop screen. I have a third of it for quicklaunch, the rest is for window lists, which display only the program icon. I just made a fresh install, so I plan on adding more icons to quicklaunch. I like two columns for my quicklaunch and systray. I'm looking for a skin that gives me the most room in the taskbar and which has a mininal window scheme. As far as looks go, I'd like it not to be buttass ugly if poss

Reply to Windows XP Sucks! I'll Never Leave 2k! in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I keep seeing these articles on WinCustomize saying how we are doing to vista what we did to xp. I can't help but notice, though, that I see these articles nowhere else on the internet. Coincidentally, Stardock and Wincustomize have new applications that have brand-new vista features and some are vista-only like deskscapes. I just can't help but think its dirty to try to change public perspective just to suit your own ends.

Searching for an orange skin. Thought was named Zitec.. in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I'm looking for a skin to mimic ubuntu, really, but the wbs and vss all have a bland taskbar that drives me insane, so I wanted to use this orange skin I had a while ago. The official wallpaper of it was some pantheon-like building with orange rays coming down from above. Thats really all I remember. Can anyone help me out?

Windowblinds on 2000? in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

What is the most recent version that supports windows 2000? I'm downgrading a machine with xp since it runs so slowly, but I still want it to look halfway decent. Also, is there a faq or anything for downgrading to 2k from xp? I figure there must be somewhere.

Reply to LED Keyboards - Skin your Keys in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I can't imagine any person wanting to make their keyboard brighter. The people who don't have all the key places memorized are people who wouldn't want to spend money on a brighter board, and anyone who has them memorized doesn't want to waste money on such a trinket.

Reply to Discover OS X Vulnerability, Receive Death Threats in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Wait, did I come off as a mac user? Oh heavens no. I value my money enough to spend it on more than one thing every 2000$. I'm a linux boy, m'lads. My OS is free and customizable until the very end. I bought a laptop with Windows XP MCE, uninstalled all the crap, and dual-booted with Ubuntu. It took two solid days getting XP to mimic Ubuntu close-enough that it didn't look like poop. Yes, thats right, I actually paid money for a piece of microsoft software. I.. I wasn't feeling right, I
