Reply to Ok!..Don't say I'm a stupid but I really to know what's really mean "Sub Prime" in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Sub-Prime lending came under scrutiny when interest rates were exceedingly low (I even saw 5-year 0% mortgages). Sub-Prime candidates were getting approved left and right with 5-year ARM loans. "ARM" stands for adjustable-rate mortgage. That means the interest rate fluctuates with the market. The purpose behind these was that the people would have lower payments, because typically ARM loans have lower interest rates. After 5 years, they would increase their credit rating and be able to refi

Well I have a motto, but it's kind of morbid. Don't fear doing anything, because we're all going to die anyway. Whether you do something great, or you do something horrible, it won't matter to you once you're dead. There is a caveat to that, however. There are still certain things that retain repercussions that could create a much worse life until your death. For instance, I wouldn't rob a bank, because I wouldn't want to live the rest of my life in prison. It mainly pertai

My friend, Nicole, used to work at Old Navy, and they had machines where you put a quarter in it, and a rubber ball would come out. Some lady gave her son 50 cents, thinking that that's how much it was for one ball. The kid came back with two of them, excited to have twice what he originally was hoping for. As they ventured through the store, the kid was bouncing his balls for about 5 minutes. Now I'm sure most of you haven't played with rubber balls in quite some time, so you may not realiz

Reply to Learning how to spell or at least proof read your post. in Community WinCustomize Forums

I stopped reading comments, so this may have already been covered, but both m-w.com and dictionary.com do not recognize "miss-spell" as a valid entry. I don't care what IE says. Also, I completely agree with you, but I also don't agree with you. You see, I happen to be quite a spelling/grammatical genius, so I could correct just about anybody with more than a two-sentence post (sometimes less). The point I'm making is this: where do we draw the line? Obviously, we don't want people that

I downloaded that program. I hated it. Unfortunately, it didn't come with any UNinstaller, so I just deleted the folder. Seemed like that would work, right? Nope. Every time I would restart my computer, it would try to install it again, so I had to edit my registry to get rid of it. Most annoying thing ever.

@Jafo: Man, you just snuck that comment in there, didn't you? LoL That is true about the lack of customer support. I start theming Litestep about 9 years ago, when the community was bustling with themers and people ready to help out. I see how it would be very difficult to start in Litestep nowadays.

@messiah1: Ha ha. I meant "Am I crazy, because I think this?" I already know I'm crazy in general. LoL @BigDogBigFeet: Looking through 5 pages of the top downloaded DesktopX objects, I've surmized that I can recreate anything I've seen through modules in Litestep (mainly xlabel.dll). Also, the entire purpose of Litestep is to make an enirely customizable desktop, so I don't get your point there. @Lantec: You have a VERY good point about the idiot proof. Liteste

Question for the community in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I just recently purchased Windowblinds, and I've been perusing through wincustomize for a couple of days now. It wasn't until then that I realized how many different programs there are for changing the look of one's computer. I then realized that every program costs money, except the logon program, and a lot of people on here have all the programs. After looking at all of these, I realize some people spend $80 or more to have all this customization. My question is this: why spend so much
