Rip !!!

Monday, June 24, 2002 by adni18 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Unbelievable!
Someone yesterday has upload in WinCustomize a skin call “XRojoplata”, the author name is “Arcila”.

This skin is 90% my skin “Ambient”, he just recolor some parts from blue to red and he has change only the start menu, but not the buttons of start menu. In the rest of the skin he is using my bitmaps with no change at all!!!

I can't understand this kind of people...

I can't see it Nikos, so I guess one of the other admins removed it.

That explains it. I downloaded it when it was new and then I couldn't find it. Today I tried to apply ambient and had a whole bunch of problems. Guess I should go into that folder and delete both of them? And then redownload Ambient, of course. I wouldn't let a treasure like that go!

Heh... It is scary when nothing at all will load when you reboot, but I always feel kind of bright if I can figure out how to recover without loss. It's like a puzzle. But I can do without these surprises.

Adni,

I sent an e-mail to one of the admins last night soon after the skin was posted reporting the same. How anyone has the nerve to post a rip like that is beyond me. I hope this Arcila person has received a very blunt e-mail from the admin.

Um.... I'm feeling all kinds of guilty for even trying to download it. I'm sorry, I should have looked closer. I'll be more careful.

Thank you Paul, I know...

Thank you Diane


You are right David, I don't feel glad about it, but wasn't feeling well before this action also.
By the way, what means Dinsdale, I open my dictionary but I didn't find any translation about it

Nikos - I believe it was a giant hedgehog named Spiny Norman that roamed the streets calling out Dinsdale's name. Dinsdale was terrified of it even though he was known for cruelly enforcing his will on the local populace. Once to show his his displeasure over a remark someone made he nailed a coffee table to the guy's head. But the guy felt that he deserved it because he had made an unkind remark about Dinsdale's cat. He was described by most people in the town as Cruel... but fair...

Like most of the obscure stuff that shows up on the message noard, it's from a Monty Python show...

Thats why I didn't know what Dinsdale was. Iwas not a Monty Python fan.

I understand now...Monty Python show was great, even if their humor was not very much understandable for the non English language countries all over the world, but very clever though! Thank you David

I love Monty Python.... they just crack me up. They have also influenced other movies, like "A Fish called Wanda". "Ke-ke-ke-ken is going to ki-ki-ki-kill me!"

Fierce Creatures is another one for good mindless entertainment with ex-Python folks.
