Oh, you guys are so great.   I'm wondering if a suite [hint, hint] could be in the pipeline to commemorate this most auspicious occasion [hint, hint]  Well, I'm still muddling my way through a meltdown blind.  I think I have ironed out some of the problems (Either that or I'm going to bury it, and if I do you are all invited to the funeral).

Oh, and you actually saved my earlier pieces!  I shudder when I think about some of them.  You brave, brave soul.

 

Fuzzy, hope all is well with you.

Yes! So many past Masters. Now we need to hear from IRBraniac and the A/VMan. Who else?

 

and Tiggz...  

 

hope IR is OK...   

 

Nice to see some of the originals/oldies dropping back... maybe we should have a WC Veterans Thread where people can check in and say howdy occasionally.....

Possible name suggestions:

DejaVu

Reunion

Resurrection

Rewind

Future Past

Never Say Never

This would be one killer project!

 

Forgot one.......Blame It On Hippy

Yes, I saved to disc just about all the old skins I'd collected.  Back in the day I was right into metallic and glass skins, and most of yours fitted the bill so they were must haves... and saved for posterity, nostalgic reasons.

Holy cr@p, just trying to work out if I've died and this is some sort of skinners graveyard, or just some freaky reunion????

 

Martin! OMG dude how the hell are you???

Man we shared some laughs and some frustrations. I am still grateful for your help on the DX stuff.

 

Haha, yep ... in the end the frustrations got too much for me. I wanted DX to be huge, and could see it doing that, but I don't think that's a vision that was shared and after beating my head against a brick wall, I just got sick of seeing rehashed weather and calender widgets and decided enough was enough.
Not that I have time to breathe or relax these days!!

I concur... I loved the idea of DX but I hit so many walls it got frustrating. I wanted my Warehouse theme to be so much more than it was but there were so many things I couldn't do that I wanted to. Thanks to you though I got my cool flickering light.

Where's Greenreaper?

He lost his glasses and was last seen roaming around in aisle 13 at his local Walmart hoarding cookies and yelling profanities at old ladies

Oh man, you had the cookies picture! I thought that was lost forever after the Great Hard Drive Meltdown of 2003.

The most concise summary of my years at Stardock and beyond is on my LinkedIn profile. I've visited Walmart more than I did in Michigan, but I get those 60% chocolate chips rather than cookies. One layer in a sauce dish makes a great dessert.

I was more a creature of Stardock's old newsgroups and IRC than the forums. In the interest of history, here's ten years of #stardock's stats.

I got all the way to #53 before I found a name I didn't know......

I spent far too much time on that retched piece of 1's and 0's.

Typical, late to the party again! Where's all the nibbles? I bet Hippy scoffed the lot. Incidentally I thought you were launched into space when I kicked you off #stardock one of those times many moons ago.This is a real blast from the past though, those days were a lot of fun.  Somehow there seem to be less hours in the day now
