I couldn't take it anymore...

That dull desktop!

... So, I figured it was time to renew my OD and WC subscriptions.

 

Everything looks great so far! OD is better than ever. The quality of the skins on this site is still great. The only problem I now have is: What on Earth do I pick!

 

Cleaned up my destop (only 3 icons left), installed all the OD apps I used to love. Ordered some chinese food. Ready to browse all this new stuff. This going to be a long night...

Hi there, Snowy!

 

Live's been good to me.

 

Good to see that you are still on the job here. Everything OK with you?

 

Woah. I am not sure if I am able to select a skin. It's almost impossible to choose from all this great stuff.

 

Do you recommend something, sir? I like it dark (and no green!).

Eggsealent!
Good to hear.

Things are going great up here.
Seem like I'm makeing more babies than skins though....

Hmm... I'd recommend MikeBs latest WB - Ozone, but it might not be dark enough for you
Try out Kittys Razor X: KALIK RAIT HEAR

btw... are you gonna hang out on IRC again, now then?
We sure had some great times, back then.... hehe

I'm having some problems getting on, at the moment. My crappy router won't keep me online if idleing
(Which seems to be the main hobby in #Stardock and #Wincustomize )

Too bad your router is giving you issues. I had some problems with my connection too. Bought a wireless LinkSys thingie recently. That one is OK. It seems my line has hickups, but the LinkSys is spoofing the connection, so it fixed the issue.

 

I am cutting back on IRC. But I do still frequent some dutch channels. Idling in IRC and gaming don't mix.

 

I'll try to give IRC a shot, but don't expect me to hangout 24/7.

 

Thanks for the recommendations. I'll have a look at it. Mike was always a great skinner. Don't tell him that.

 

Going to look for some dark suites. Maybe the two you recommended are part of one.

 

Obviously I haven't done any skinning lately. I wasn't great anyway, so nobody missed it.

 

Time for coffee...

Mr WOM

 

Thanks for the beer, I am doing fine, sir. How are things going in Texas?

 

Great to see you are still around.

 

I might drop by in IRC this weekend. Don't count on it tonight. Looks like I have a couple of reboots to do.

No need to tell him - he knows

I've had two more since last we spoke. So I'm up to 4 now
And that's it.... no more 'snowflakes'!
If you happen to be on Facebook, look me up (Morten Prang Norup - that goes for anyone btw). I have plenty of pics of the kids there.

@Zubaz...

 

Hehe.. Those skins are still around? LOL.

 

I was wondering... Does WBAmp still work or do I need to create a new one?

 

Thanks for the welcome back!

 

@Snowman...

 

Four, hey? You've been busy.

I'll have look at Facebook. I hope I don't need to create an account there to see the pictures. Not a fan of sites like that. I'll certainly try to have a look.

Unfortunately you do.....
I only share pics with people on my friends list.

I do, though, have plans for making a web-thingy for pics of my kids.... when I eventually get around to start doing it....

I'm usually on IRC weekdays. PM me next time you jump on.
