WOW, thanks Dave Bax for setting up this thread. And thank you all, folks. You know I love you and always will (as a friend of course). I miss skinning every single day. Unfortunately there is still a plenty of other important things keeping me back from skinning all the time. As Dave says we're in the process of building the house, so currently having a lot of cares about it. Another thing is that my actual job takes me more hours compared to how it used to be in the past. I wish

Do we really know what respect means? in Community WinCustomize Forums

Folks, I know that I am not poking around regularly (being busy about a lot of stuff beyond computer world), but I just couldn't stand that bitter feeling inside. So the question is what has happened? A pure and easy answer: A lack of respect has - around this site. Before making anyone think of me I am a freak, let me give you just couple of words how I have come to this. There's a growing portion of people here (talk to me I am wrong) thinking that being explicit is al

The status of a Master skinner does not incorporate to ciruculate skins only but to encourage folks around by giving some hints, advices and help to them. Provided there is a new guy coming in asking for help and such a help is given by a Master skinner I doubt he will know it is coming from a Master unless a Master says: "Hello I am a Master skinner ready to help you" and this sounds a bit ridiculous to me as I have never done this and will not. It is not about being forgotten rather about t

Tom, I can be speaking for myself only as I don´t know why other masters have stopped circulating new skins. In passing years I have been releasing a plenty of skins. However because of having another newborn I have had to change my priorities. Family comes first now and it will be that way for some time. They have been "waiting" on me for couple years as if I had a spare time I put that into skinning. So now it´s my turn to give a little payback to my most beloved.

What a nice memory. Thanks for this time summarization, Frogboy. I started up with WB4 first but I wish I got familiarised with it even earlier. IMHO and I guess I am not the only one to think that way, the true GOLDEN YEARS of skinning were until Vista arrived. There was a lot of joy. A plenty of in fact. And then it slowly became a bit worse. Yet with 7 it seemed like the old golden echos had arised again but with win 8 coming in... I don´t know... Personally I am still on win 7 and u

Hey folks, thanks for the comments. Yes, I am supposed to be around more and more.

Reply to Proton X I have started working on it in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

Hi folks, apologies to have kept you waiting (provided there has been someone waiting, he he). I've been very busy so today have started working on this skin again. It is not too much, I know. But at least the preview shows a bit more stuff compared to the prior one. I am not sure how much of time does it take before finishing but I guess I can make haste. Anyway, I'd love to take this opportunity to say ma big HELLO to all of ya. Glad to be back guys.

Sounds like you're having fun Tom! [/quote] Tom, having a fun? Not really. Was I amazed? Yes. Was that an easy walking and watching? Nope :D We took the route from the sea towards the hills and then we were going up the hills so the stairs almost floored me. I was totally out of breath. But yes, the view itself

Guys, I loved being there. Pity these photos just suck. It is really like being somewhere beyond this world. When you are passing like at the bottom and you are surrounded by the giant rocks it almost looks as if that all is about to fall down upon you when watching it from the valley. Then you need to take a plenty of stairs to get up the hill. I was outta breath when hitting the top point but it was worth it. It brings you just an amazing look miles and miles around. BTW Nor

Well, folks. Finally the flu seems to be definitely behind me. Yesterday my friend, his wife and I did a trip to the place called The Giants Causeway. It is the place by the sea which was formed due to lava reaction in the past. It created stones of very unique shapes. At the first look it seemed as if a hand of a man had created them.

Especially there are some terrific stones on the coast, very well known, but I can not recall the name. Professedly worth a visit for sure. Need to do something or I am gonna be stayin' death.

I love you guys. Especially thanks to the fact that every thread of mine has ever had a different start and totally different progress. Now we are coming up with Bee Gee's and amazing Stayin' alive.

I know when I was there traveling all over it was absolutely breathtaking. Super friendly people, and talk about a clean country! No matter where you went you did not see trash all over the ground like here in the US, you didn't see garbage and trash anywhere. We have nothing but lazy slobs and pigs here in that regard.
