Reply to Stardock 2008 Report in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Brad, This kind of transparency in the business plan is a breath of fresh air. The Gamer's Bill of Rights initiative is a great thing if it can be implemented broadly, though my feeling is that this may be akin to herding cats. Other than Windows itself, Stardock's software is the longest running title on my machines and will continue to be for the forseeable future due to quality, customer responsiveness, and just plain old value for the dollar. Thanks. MichaelO - Dallas

Reply to WB6 Black line above Taskbar in certain skins in XP Support WinCustomize Forums

I will have to reinstall WB6 to do this. I reverted to WB5 last night out of frustration with WB6 due to issues other than the Black line. Problems with the Font properties changing irratically. If screenshot not posted before this evening I will reinstall and grab a screenshot for you. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards - MichaelO.

WB6 Black line above Taskbar in certain skins in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I installed WB6 last night (licensed) and noticed that there was a heavy (5 pixel?) black line now running across my sceen at the top edge of the Taskbar. I am currently using the Pantheon Suite and have uninstalled/reinstalled both it and WB6 to try and correct this. I have noticed that this does not happen on all skins but it is happening on some. Since Pantheon is a paid for suite I was wondering if this a a WB6 issue, a skin/suite issue and/or if there is any known fix that can be made local

I too work in an application that has hard coded PF keys and the F9 and F10 are used for various functions throughout the app. This needs to be made a configurable option.

WB 5.1 forces MSMoney to full screen when opening in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

I installed WB 5.1 last night and upon opening Microsoft Money this morning noticed that it was going to full screen vertically (not horizontally). I have excluded Money via per app setting but thought I would go ahead and report this. It woorked fine with version 5.01.

Two other sites you should check. ZipZoomFly for parts - comparable to Newegg but carry some different items, and Tomshardware.com for reviews and tips on building. Regards - MichaelO

Reply to iconpackager 3.0 in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hi Folks, I was just checking for this thread because I too have a problem with Icon Packager(3.00.090). When I install it, it corrupts PaintShop Pro 9 and Photo Album 5. I tried to uninstall it and got an error that it could not be uninstalled. Tried to restore previous version from archiver and no go there either. Finally resorted to a checkpoint I created to debug this and the checkpoint rolled me back to the .089 version which seems to b

Reply to Sneak peek of Society at Gamespy in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

The concepts are very intriguing especially the idea of persistence. I have never been into this type of game - strictly an FPS player but Society could very well assimilate me. Please keep us updated through both Wincustomize and Gamespy.

Reply to Thinkpads as Tivo replacements in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Brad, I've been thinking along these lines for awhile now, but didn't know about the WMV format stuff. I would be really interested in more information or articles in this area. And when I'm not watching TV programming perhaps I could have the fish swimming on the screen.

Reply to /me needs a guru..... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Boxxi, I am assuming you are using DSL rather than cable. DSLreports diagnostics is good for both. I have got cable so my settings probably would not help you, though I routinely move files in excess of 5 meg with no data/packet loss (which may be part of your problem). If I can be of any assistance though feel free to drop me an email - its on my profile. Regards - MichaelO
