I do VC++ development with a DX desktop loaded all of the time now, and I wouldn't want to do without it. I wouldnt mind seeing your desktop to get an idea. I do VC++(among other languages) and I havent found a DX desktop arrangement I could use. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/s
While I have WB and IP applied full time, I rarely ever use DX anymore. Whenever I'd get something set up just how I wanted it, a reboot or even a log-off would screw it all up again. And yes, for me, running a full theme, or a group of objects (widgets?) took a sizable bite out of the RAM. If you're running any kind of resource-
some different gaming would be ok... getting tired of Everquest.
Compuserve HA! yep that was it... Cant believe how long it has been!!
wow sounds like a fun project. Does Stardock or anyone use volunteer programmers? Beats the same ol stuff I work on heheh.
wow brings back some memories!! Heh sometimes I still use blackbox for windows. Its amazing how much has changed tho. I started on the IBM PC Jr when PCs first came out. Text interfaces unless you had time to write some sort of text based UI. C and assembly language programming.. heheheh it was a bit fun! I forget exactly who, but there was a BBS that had a sort of graphical UI back around the late 80's maybe 1990 or so... ah well. <img src="http
LOL wow interesting to see where people are!! very cool!
Its a shame each upgrade breaks SDCentral somehow. Not true in all cases. If a person has a problem they should contact support so the issue can be resolved and the problem made known. Thats how fixes come about. I had a problem with the SDC and contacted support a few days ago and they sent
you can upgrade to DX Pro for a reduced price if you are an ODNT subsrcriber heh That would work. I had to send off an email to sales to get the info about doing just that. Information doesnt seem to be readily accessable on their website. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/BigSm
As I understand it Desktop X Pro does not come with the Object Desktop Network subscription correct?
cool. Neat to know where people are
Well interesting software. I like it. However I unloaded it did some other chores and then ran the Aquarium Desktop again. This time I had a whole bunch of anchors and the fish count was off from when I unloaded it. Not a problem as I removed all. However I think this is a bug that it repopulates with and over abundance of objects when it gets reloaded. Also the wallpapers dont load. I have to do into display properties and reset the images ther
Does Windows 95 count as a software bug?
Anyone play these games? HOw are they?
What?? The string to the cambell soup cans got cut? Wow!! No worries here!
Just bought and installed. Very nice!
There is a bug in firefox which can cause its content to jump around. This can happen with or without WindowBlinds. hmm now that I think on it, it was only Firefox doing that. Cool thanks for the info.
Kevison: The Outlook issue should be resolved in future builds. There is a minor colour scheme applying issue with the current builds which is making certain system colours turn black. Ok, Im not worried about it as I dont use the calendar much. However about the jittering. Whenever I have an
Is working well for me with the exception of the Outlook problem. the previous and next months days are blacked out on all the custom skins I try. But at least its not blinking all over the desktop. Every now and then I get jitters when I have a rolled up app and I switch skins.
Anyone remember Enlightenment.Org. ? Its a linux desktop. I used it on my linux boxes a while ago and it seeems they have slowed down to next to nothing. Anyone know of a skin that is like the Enlightenment gui?
just thought you might want a little encouragement on some theoretical progress... your thoughts? Nice cover!
heheh almost makes one wonder.
maybe more females would join if the "pretty" were more prominent. beauty is in the eye of the beholder... and those with the money to expound on it heheheheh
Sure, and what I meant by that was in buying a renewal to Objectdesktop I should be entitled to good skins for a year. I have both ODntwork and WC. WHen I bought ODn it was with the assumption I bought software that could make my desktop look better and function the way I want it too. However it did
A magazine would be great I definitely agree, maybe one that has an occasional CD loaded with goodies. I spend way to much on tech rags and books, but one more def wouldnt hurt. Tutorials would be great. Or even frameworks for things like WindowBlinds. A WC mag would be great.
