Totally Pointless Feature Poll.
Tuesday, July 17, 2001 by CygnusXII | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
In the Other Thread on Custom Colors the Point was raised, about features. To promote the General Welfare, and further the Quest for knowledge. I ask of you these Questions.
1. What feature in windowblinds, do you find the most usefull?
2. Blue or Grey,or other, what Colors make the best receptive Skinz?
3. How often do you switch, Themes?
4.What do you think the perfect theme is?
(Insert dream features here.)
Also this is a NO Point Garnering Post.
No Point where harmed in the writing of this post, and Only trained Stunt Points were, used in the writing of this Post. Any Similarity to actual Point is a Coincidence, and perceived by the Reader.

The roll up thing.
Any color, if it looks good color does not matter.
I hope I understand this question. Metal finish works fine to.
It's most likly once a month, but it can go longer, or shorter.
The one theme that comes the closes to the perfect theme, for me is Sorbet Blue Basic.

Most useful feature - makes my machine look better. Don't really use the various features enough to commit to them.
Blue or Grey - I usually end up using the skins that are less showy and obtrusive. So, Grey it is for me.
I switch themes probably about once a week on average. Maybe even more frequently considering I sometimes change a few times in a single day.
Haven't thought of a dream theme yet.

1)
Middle Click
2)
Dunno, I change colors all the time. At the moment I'm going through a purple phase.
3)
Hmm, Sometimes I can use the same theme for more than one day, and days like to today I've lost count. I'm restless.
4)
There is by definition no perfect theme. Thats what makes this an attractive hobby/obsession/lifestyle.
I read this somewhere, can't remember where:
"A man must shape his tools, lest they shape him."

Most useful feature: rollup
Colors: Mostly earthtones or turquoise or purple
Switch themes weekly on home computer & less often at work.
I have yet to see a perfect theme (but Treetog's Siderado comes the closest)

rollup/dock-to-front has to be the best feature(s)
(sorry if two doesn't count but they are equally usefull to me)
as for colors... anything thats different and new from the typical windows colors
as for changing skins... i tend to find one thats well built and created and looks good and stick with it, unless i find a new one that's better than the last one that fit that category
the perfect skin?... right.... if such a thing exists... it would be something made by each of us to fit our own likes and dislikes, or just one that incorporates all the good features and plugins and looks good doing it!
