unclerob...my wiseassness wasn't directed at you specifically. Coincidence has it that you happen to have alot of updates in the update gallery. There was one specific skin (not by you) that prompted this post. It wasn't even touched by the artist as an update. They simply just reuploaded the skin.
Just pointing out (in a light hearted way) to new people that the people that have been around, know the things people try every now and then. Newer people seem to think we are all stupid and haven't run into this type of stuff before. Where they think they are being clever in finding loopholes in the system, it actually has a negative effect on their reputation in the end.... usually.

I would like to see Boot Skins packs that not only have the "Windows XP" and "Windows Vista" whithout the "Logo". Some are great without it and I do know what system I have installed.
Thanks. Just a thought.

don't forget a thing if the work is good peoples will download it without think on his name.
I agree with you for the 30 bootskins per day it's crazy and more when you think they get fews downloads and if the author upload just one per week or month in place of 10 per days he'll get certainly more download. (Skinned Alive have got this mater with his astro suite and he removed all not?)
Perso i like more comments to let me know i have make a mistake(to improve my work) or to let me know that the skin is good than enormous download count and no comment. Example: Vista Ultimate Boot

This is why download counts and the top 'authors' list are useless shite. You can 'make' and upload a thousand bootskins in the time it takes to make a good WB skin or iconpackage. Where's the justice? There is none.

I hear what you're saying Night Train and I know you weren't directing your "wiseassness" at me specifically but thanks for saying so anyways. I'm a smarta$$ by nature and I usually leap before I look which is why I added my 2 cents (cdn) about ripping a skin to get better downloads but I should definitely think 3 times (twice even) before letting loose with all the details as I did in my above rants which were thankfully "edited" by zubaz.
Skin for fun is the best attitude, if anything it promotes the best creativity.
Otherwise skinning just for downloads (it is nice to be popular, just wished I could get on my wife's top 10 list ) becomes more of a job than a hobby and then gets old real quick.
Zubaz, I actually really do like that wallpaper (give yourself some credit, it is good), you should upload it to the site (I know it's at the guichamps website but you should upload it to the wallpaper section on this site) and maybe do a hue shift and make a wallpaper skin pack out of it (orange, blue, red, green, b/w, etc.). That software is very interesting - I'm wondering if I could use it to create some gui elements in my wb's - we'll find out soon enough
I may even ask your permission to use it in a logon in the future
One thing for sure, you guys sure are a friendly bunch, I'm used to other website forums where you can literally be "cyber lynched" for saying something wrong or stepping out of line.
....Now I just have to train myself to stop stepping out of line!

I, on the other hand, simply make a screen shot of the stats page, photoshop in the #s that make me happy and set the entire finished product as my wallpaper...now, with .dream I can even have winky walk out and present me with the award....

The aim is for Wincustomize.com's skinning forums to be 'friendly'. Gone are the days of wise-arse ganging up on people who may be mildly out of step with some 'in-crowd' or other....

Or, go to the bathroom and forget to leave the room then realize that you must now leave the room to go change the drawers..

I also just downloaded ArtRage 2 Free edition, I had never heard of it before, from what's shown on their website gallery, it looks like pretty cool software!
