i know graypony passed a few years back. he used to skin the old music player called MusicMatch. he was darn good at it, too.
essorant? chadimus? radialfx? t-man still at stardock hq? davidk was super nice person. RIP, guy. i miss Stumpy, too. iplural? china pretty much dropped of the face of the earth.
What? graypony and David? Strange I was thinking about David a while back out of nowhere and he was heavy on my heart I "felt" something about him going on but he passed?
Doreen goes have a good cry...
When everyone remembers where they were and what they were doing on 9/11 ... I was on ICQ with Dave.... he said a plane had just hit the Trade Center......and I said 'what...fog?'....
I know Jafo, strange huh? I lost touch years ago w/ David and his wife Crowdeer (hence why I thought it strange to be thinking about him so suddenly a few months back) and though I never physically met them they shot vibes to me through the air that felt like they were the sweetest and nicest couple I never met! I hope his wife is okay? Do you know if Crowdeer is okay? I feel so sad to see that news. But maybe he is here in spirit! If so, he'd not want a sad mood so you guys carry on...

Just found this http://web.archive.org/web/20020605230939/https://www.wincustomize.com/msgboard.asp?id=42169
My first post as Fuzzy Logic with my new account. Sadly, the old account, with my much lower user number, no longer exists ![]()

I just flipped through the skinner list at http://www.koasati.net/pix/index.php
.
I only hope that camera technology back then was SO bad that we actually looked better than it appears.
Holy crap! What's that sort of fluffy, stringy protein laden stuff on top of my head?
It almost looks like.... hair?!

Checked out the link. I didn't know there was a wayback machine. Twelve years! That's a whole lot of skinning!

My original user number was much lower as well. My join date is actually 5 years earlier than what you see beneath my avatar.
I wish I could get that user number and join date back. I miss PuterDudeJim....

This thread has become legendary. It's really great seeing you early groundbreakers in the forums. I'm a new guy but have admired and enjoyed your art since joining. Thanks for posting, Hippy.

Hey HG, good to see you too. Seems like old times with (oops, eliminate the old) everyone here.
Reply #254 Saturday, April 26, 2014 7:37 PM
hehe yeh, went thru a bunch of old threads last night and got a chuckle.. lot of names i've not seen in ages..

Hey Christine! So good to see you
Yeah, I'll second that... and third it for old time sake (oops, eliminate the old)
I got quite a few, if not all, of your WBs and IconPackager sets when I first joined up and had to give XP a modicum of respect in the looks department. Although I don't use them as often these days due to using Win 8.1, I still have them saved to a DVD along with many other classic skins [so glad I burned them all off prior to a formatting accident]
In fact, it is so good to see so many of the founding skinners coming back to visit we mere mortals. I'm wondering if a suite [hint, hint] could be in the pipeline to commemorate this most auspicious occasion [hint, hint]

More likely this will be a Douglas MacArthur moment.
Old skinners never die; they just fade away.

Yes, this does start to bring back memories of the good old days. Now to see some of the ones that just up and quit(ie Nighttrain and others).

I was alerted to a gathering of oldies in the forums and thought I might check in and make sure no one had fallen and hurt themselves.
Hi Hippy, and greets to the rest of the old guard. It's good to be back.
Gotta say though, accessing the forums on an iPad on 3G from here is gorram atrocious... And that's not even mentioning the ads! It took me about handful of times to post this.
