Where are all the old WB skinners.

Thursday, January 3, 2002 by Paul Oberlin | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

OK, Treetog's posted a few skins recently, and Tinyray posted one yesterday, the 1st in a while. Haven't heard from Aleksyandr, Alexandrie, essorant, Dangeruss, oe even Mangass in awhile. What happened?

Paul Oberlin & Jafo: Ithink what Adni18 is asking is, how long have you two been in the skinning game?
Is that right Nikos?

Oh....I started with LiteSTEP in early '97, if you refer to 'real' customizing, rather than tweaking and hacking the standard Windblows...
That would have been around B21 and 23 vintage....LiteSTEP was basic and buggy then, as was eFX and WindowBlinds 0.something.
It was not all that long after Customize.org started, and before skinz.org...
First graphic comp work was done in Dos 4, but the first 'real' paint proggy I used was PSP3.

I really started taking an interest in drawing back in about '59 or '60....tanks, planes and cars....'72 saw me starting Architecture at Melbourne Tech...[RMIT], where Fine Art was a 'little' section, along with Life Drawing, which was fun. Now I design domestic Architecture...[houses and stuff], and annoy people on Skinning Sites [as a hobby]...

So now you know Jafo's personal history...
