Masterpiece Inside!
Sunday, November 2, 2008 by Elsius Saint | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
From the maker of vStyler , Mike Bryant, and I made you too, comes “The One” – A must check out masterpiece.
I’ll get really serious. I’d like to see more appreciation and encouragement being shown to new skinners trying to get in the skinning community. No matter how bad a skin may look, a lot of dedication and hard work have spent on these skins. I hope one day it pays off for them and remember they need your encouragement so they can become the next vStyler and Mike Bryant. I, myself, enjoy playing with Skinstudio every now and then, so I get to realize the hard work that’s involved whether a skin turns out good or bad. It’s worth supporting the real skinners.
It's also worth stating that Gui Champ is the battle of champs, so I expect nothing but the best. It is the only place you’d see me add some spice to my critics.
By the way, I’m using an Icon Packager of the Gui Championship 2008’s entry that will no doubt be a winner.
Last but not least, you have to find out yourself what skin that I have massaged on the screenshot.

Um.....'prominent' in that he has a huge nose, perhaps?....
The conversion and/or alteration may be prohibited...but you would need to specifically also prohibit the display/distribution of such to be empowered to have them withdrawn..... and US 'fair-use' Laws will likely skuttle that, were you to try....

Not even for personal use?

The Skins Factory . The Sony of the desktop customization world. And likely going to be just as liked and respected.
Better start checking for rootkits in those Hyperdesk themes.

I suppose he could say the same thing about us.
Where my hackles raise, (and it's just slightly mind you), is the use of the words "right" and "wrong." We're talking about business, commerce, capitalism, and consumerism here -- there is no such thing as right and wrong in this world - there is only punishable by law, and unpunishable by law. If Jeff feels he has a case, I suggest he pursue it to the fullest extent of the law. This forum, however, does not appear to be the most effective place to seek justice at.

Is this going to be one of those threads that goes all weekend? Just asking, I'm almost out of popcorn and need to know it I should go get more. Damn and I wanted to watch baseball today too.

You need a Costco ( or Sam's Club ) size bag of popcorn dude.

Good morning Everyone, i see this is still going... 
Do you think Jeff had any frends when he was a kid..... 
Just messing.
I know nothing about legal rights...
it just seems to me he is looking for things to make wincustomize and the people here look bad..

What is the huge deal?? If this thread had been left alone, it would have sunk into the netherregions of the forum and likely never seen again. The modifications would have been forgotten and that would've been the end of it.
But no, the previous "incident" got Jeff's hackles up and he obviously decided to dig around a bit and obviously found a bone to pick. Everyone knows what they say about that. 
The post didn't make any major waves when it was posted so why bother splashing around now after all this time? I mean seriously, what possible effect could this single screenshot have on TSF's sales? I would say miniscule, if any at all. Although he probably put some work into it, It's not a hugely great port and not likely to be distributed at all, so why make it so much bigger than it really is?
I mean, seriously, come on... build a bridge. Sheesh.

I am no friend to Jeff but come on people really....
All he did was ask for it not to happen again and the wolves came full attack. I haven't posted in months but this topic is dear to me so I can't just be quiet.
You all have it wrong except for TSF. Your personal feelings towards Jeff are making you look bad.
I assume it has been requested in private that the post be removed by now yet remains.

Exactly! Jeff made a simple request but, as always, unnecessary nastiness brought the thread into disrepute.
Sure, it's an open forum for public discussion... but that's no reason/excuse to use it to air hostility towards another member.
If there is a downside to WC, this is it!

I said all that needed to be said in #35
I fear this thread will become another trollfest :/

Post hidden. This is too much trolling for a stupid screenshot from 2008.

Just food for thought...
Jafo., and everyone.., you are wasting your time with Jeff., he is stuck to his idea and he wont move from there..., no inteligent, polite, friendly or reasonable arguements will move him..., is like telling a young boy that what he did was wrong., he wont gave a shit what you are telling him...
