What Skins, Themes, Stuff you want?
Thursday, November 18, 2004 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
According to the poll, the #1 way for people to want to visit WinCustomize.com even more (other than more time) is if the site had more skins and themes.
What we'd like to know is, what kind of stuff would you like? Is it more skins and themes of a particular type that we already have here or are there skins and themes you wish we had here that you have to go to other sites to obtain?
Let us know! Thanks!

"A freelance icon secion..."
That sounds intriguing...
And to echo what lots of others have already said.... Trillian!

With Firefox gaining in acceptance, it would be a great time to help out the effort with skinning.
And I would like to see a MusicMatch skin section but it appears that I'm the only one using it.

"Open License" sections. A place where people can upload objects made with "public" theme's so that they're all in one place.

I would like to see a RightClick section. I've been very excited about this program, and it's future. I'd also like to see a section for the various Mozilla programs. Perhaps a tutorial section for graphics/skinning, and another for scripting/xml since these things are all a big (and growing) part of the whole skinning phenomenon.

I would like to see more complete suites WB4 skins with matching Icon packages that are comprehensive, sysmetrix and the more popular desktop X widgets.
I'm also frustrated by the fact that there have been very few desktopX themes for 1024 x 780 resolution since DesktopX 2 was released. There are some very nice themes for higher resolutions that my laptop cannot support.
Firefore and trillian skins would be nice too. If objectdock were less buggy I would add it to the list above too.

Are you all mad?? I don't see anyone mention Samurize!! A WC section for Samurize would be far easier to browse than the tedious library on Samurize.com and the talent of skinners here could produce some incredible configs!!
I also think ObjectBar skins being left behind a little, I know DX can do the same, and in some cases better, than ObjectBar but ObjectBar runs much better on lower-spec machines.
I believe that WC should refrain from creating a section for Mozilla/Firefox for a few more builds until the UI is well defined.. just a thought.. but it'd be a pain to put in the time and effort to create a skin which suddenly won't work because a new builds been released.
I'm not a fan of Trillian (too bloated for my liking) but there certainly seems to be a large enough user base here to warrant a library!

I'm for Trillian skins as well. I'd also like the dual monitor wallpaper advertised a little more. I made the suggestion to put it up but I'm not sure the public knows it's available.

Recently Martin made a great desktop note widget. I was wondering if some could come up with one that in addition to being so attractive looking and easy to use- could also provide the capabilities of printing out the note? It would be timesaving to use destop post-it's and then print out my idea's/errands out and take them with me for the day.

Well... what I would kinda like to see would definitely be a Trillian section - however, there's one big major problem with Trillian skins: They're version-specific. Sucks big time.

I agree with I psikle that some of the great old windowblinds skins should be updated to the latest version. It's a bummer having to rotate some of the favs out of the list when they don't work properly any more. The addition of a Firefox section would also be most welcome.
