Ready for Primetime?
Saturday, May 22, 2010 by DarthBrundleFLY | Discussion: WinCustomize 2011 Feedback
Hi as a long time visitor to WinCustomize I have always enjoyed this site and the community here, a lot of very talented people. But I have to question the decision to go primetime with the WinCustomize 2010 site it just does not appear to be up to the standard that one expected from this site.
I am not a skinner just an average Joe and this is just my thoughts on the state of WinCustomize. I like the new site don't get me wrong but it honestly can't be ready for general release with over 3 weeks of not alot working or containing bugs, isn't that what the beta was supposed to be for.
I am impatiently waiting for the update to VXP 2010 for windows 7 as I purchased the blind here on WinCustomize and as such can't get the update from the Maxstyles site as I bought it here. I was going to wait till his Venom skin was released here as well but after a week I gave up and bought it from his site, 3 weeks later from release it still isn't on WinCustomize.
I see there is a thread on uploads in the 2010 feedback thread which has been going for 3 weeks now...I am being told uploads aren't working by the author of VXP 2010 yet in various other sections, DeskScapes, IconPackagers ect new things are appearing. Is it just Windowblinds where uploads are not working, is it hit or miss, it just seems this site was not ready to be released.
I mean no disrespect to anyone, I am and have been a fan of this site and software since OS/2 days but the old site worked I would have been able to get my 'free" update on the old site within a day or 2 of it appearing on MaxStyles.
I guess I would just like to know when I will be able to get the "free" update to the Master Skin I purchased on here?

HAH! Looks ok to me. Uh oh. That's the problem! The links got crossed! WC can't recognize v's skins upside down!
Still, the kinks will be worked out...might even be fine already. Hope so.
