Since I have been wanting a Coffee Mug forever, and since I still owe Crae one, may I make a suggestion? Has anyone looked at CafePress http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/ , I would gladly shell out a few bucks for a Coffee Mug with say Alexandrie's wonderfull "Skinning Community" https://www.wincustomize.com/download.asp?SkinID=73&LibID=18 on it. Not to mention there would be no unsold items and Wincusto might even make a couple of bucks. Like I said it is just a thought. <A HREF="https:/

You have the same download privileges as a Wincustomize Subscriber with no limit on what you can download. The Skin-browser is a benefit of supporting Wincustomize itself. So if you would like the Skin-browser and the custom suites (only one at the moment) you still have to subscribe, and 19.95 is not a lot for a 2 year subscription and to help support this site. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif

One thing that seems to get forgotten in everything is that We Americans are the mutts of the world or as Bill Murry said in the movie Strips "We have been kicked out of every self respecting country in the world". We truly are the mutts of the world, EVERY nationality is represented and for the most part our differences are embraced. I'm sorry that we are a diverse mixture that accepts that people are different, I'm sorry that the residents of this country try to help their former country men,

Crae, A couple of articles for your enjoyment http://www.cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/09/09/time.saddam.weapons/index.html and http://www.cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/05/06/time.saddam/index.html . From what I have been hearing is that if they remove Sadam they will set up a interum Military Goverment untill free elections can be held, on the lines of what happened in Japan after WWII. I hope that he decides to leave on his own but I don't see it happening and I would worry about who his heirappa

Ok, that is the ground plane, you can select it and delete it or probibly better change it from the default gray material to one that works better for your picture. That is my suggestion and it is what most people will do. Just select the plane, click on the little "M" and change the material.

I'm not sure I understand the first question your going to have to rephrase it. The second questions is well yes, get a faster computer, cut down on the number of reflective textures, turn off volumetric atmosphere, the more objects, the longer the render, render to disk, it runs a little faster. The reason that the render times tend to be long is the fact that the rendering engine is true raytrace, and Bryce will run up Billions (I'm not kidding) of calulations to generate an image. Turn off "F

Reply to How can I speed up WindowBlinds? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Are you running an AntiVirus program, and if so is it set to scan every file. Windowblinds will run to a crawl if every file is getting scanned everytime. I've been running WB for ever, and as a matter of fact I just rebuilt my sons system (PII266, 256, 16Mb Video) and WB is smoking on it. If so set your antivir to "Smart" or "Selective" or what it is called on your system. Other than that try your videodrivers but even with what your saying I don't think that is it. Chris

Ok, question 1, what OS are you running, and 2 what does your system look like (and I don't mean a gray box about this tall ) PII, PIII, PIV, 64mb, 128mb, 512mb RAM? Sounds like 98 or 2000 since your talking about grey stuff. So I'm going to take a leap of faith here. 98 is a wonderfull OS if you like to tweak, first I would suggest going to http://www.outertech.com and downloading cachman which will help yo

I'm a little biased because of my job, but a couple of things. 1) The war never ended there is a "Cease Fire" in effect that has been violated by Iraq more than 400 times at last count. He has not allowed weapons inspectors into country for over 4 years. Either and both of which are justification to resume hostilities, since they both violate the terms of the "Cease Fire" 2) The United States and the United Kingdom have enforced the "No Fly" zone for over 10 years with little t

Tarkus, I guess that you are correct. I and I really mean it. I'm just tired of things that are cool vanishing not because of lack of money, or interest, or desire. No things that are cool go away because of the 10%er's that seem to pop up all the time. These people seem to feel that for no investment on their own or a very small one, they have the right to very loudly voice a "Dissenting" opinion. Every one has a right to their own opinion but as you put it an amount of "Tact" should be involve
