I'm a sick man.....I need help
why skinners shouldn't use other computers than thier own
Sunday, October 14, 2007 by 2of3 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I'm visiting my parents for 3 weeks and I have (as I promised my wife) left my laptop at home. This has turned out to be a painfull experience for me!
The first thing I saw when I turned on my dad's computer was the res. he was using. His screen is 1280x1024. Why would he turn down the res to 1024x768? When I showed him this he said "Oh now everything looks clearer". My next task was to activate the quicklaunch buttons (I did that without asking). The next time I came back, he had removed them!
Yes, I can still log on to WC and keep tabs on whats going on here, check my download count and such, but here is my biggest problem: My dad uses default luna!
I'm just itching to customize this PC or at least use the silver theme. This blue is killing me
He won't even let me install LogonStudio
I think maybe I should go ahead and change small things and hope he likes it. I'm on a mission: to turn this man from the dark side!

hehe my father-in-law runs his system at 800x600! :/ When ever I am forced to use it, I bump up the res. haha Just seems like a waste to run a PC at such a low res., you know?

This is just bare bones default which is an eyesore IMAO
I've managed to turn a few friends on to customization, which seems to be my mission in life!

I finally got her to use SoulLuna2 by intimating it was a new theme by MS. After she used and liked it showed her LightBlue. We've never gotten further than that.
I have OB docked and hidden on all my systems and when on other systems I get so frustrated when I'm bumping the side of the screen AND NOTHING HAPPENS!! Grrr. How do people work this way? I need OB to run off a thumbdrive.
It. Is so. hard.
