Helping WC Community Members
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 by Island Dog | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Over the last couple of weeks we have had some negative drama on WinCustomize. The weather widget alone has caused a ton of frustration alone, so I wanted to do something to bring some positive vibes to WC, and to show that we are a community.
Since the economy is in a bad situation, I know we have many members on WC who have been hit with very hard times. Trying to help someone who has lost a job for instance can be difficult, but I do know things like hobbies and friends can make a difference in attitude, which is a big step in moving again in the right direction.
I wanted to put an offer out there for people that might want to help other members with a WC subscription or even software gifts. There are people here who would like to contribute to the community, and we would like to give a helping hand in getting them started if they can’t do it on their own.
I’m going to start the ball rolling by offering 2 WinCustomize subscriptions for two people who are not current subscribers. Just tell us in 50 words or less why you would like to have a WC subscription, and what the community means to you. You need not give any personal details about your situation if you wish, I would just like to hear how skinning and the community might help you in general.
If there are any other community members that would like to help, I would recommend gifting applications to someone which is easily done in Impulse. Perhaps an upcoming skinner that needs a full version of WindowBlinds for instance, instead of relying on the trial or friends to test, for instance. If you would like to do that, you can PM me with details.

Spyderbyte....all you do is go to the store...click on 'buy subscription' and in the next screen there's a 'gift' option .... then you enter the recipient's email addy [twice] and proceed to checkout...
[done that a 'few' times - it works fine]...
Incase anyone's wondering...'Matchbook' is/was Spyderbytegraphx ...

Jafo has the power to make his replies (and certain people) disappear. Your secret identity could still be safe.

Quoting Uvah, reply 133Now all I need is the WC sub What benefits would the WC sub bring you (beyond removing adverts)?
I have been wondering that myself. I fail to come up with an answer. Anyone care to enlighten me?
Beyond what LightStar has already added, obviously.

Thanks, DP, although I didn't think it needed pointing out, obviously it did.
Aaron you, of all people.....should know better than to ask such a question.

Huh? You work 3 cubicles over... and you need a membership to complain?
A paper plane would work.
Not trying to give you any ideas, though...
*Please make a paper plane and write on it: Doc wishes you guys a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

nice....
@madcat21.........hang in there bud..... we're all here to help.
BMN...in keeping with my online persona, greedy sucker that I are, if one is a WC sub I'll take it so I can be 100% WC instead of 65%.
*waiting for the hammer to smack mine noggin'* LOL
Apologies if it seems like I'm taking advantage.
