Object Dock new 'skins' (Rant)
Saturday, December 13, 2003 by c242 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I think it is about time to do the same as with walls, speak to take new submissions to the OD section out of the Newest Additions box... It becomes annoying... People, please do packs and don't upload every single icon as a seperate task. My rant for the weekend.

I admit I hadn't really considered it until I uploaded my own OD pack, then within a day it had diasappeared a few pages back...

I'd also like to point out that the deluge of individual objectdock icons impacts the wincustomize system tray notifier which pops up with great regularity whenever there's a bunch of objectdock icons that have been uploaded.
Though this may be a bug because I have the wincustomize system tray set to NOT notify me of objectdock icons, but nonetheless it still does

BoXXi......Thanks, Bryan this needs sorting.
If i am not mistaken this was raised also several weeks ago by IR who made some good suggestions.
Good to see that C242 has taken up the cause as well. BTW Calle, we don't see enough of you these days. Please pop by more often.

IRB....if something is in the queue for days it's public posting date is reset so it's visible against the current day's releases, not the day of submission.....however sometimes an updated skin may miss out, but not often....
I've never bothered with the relatively simple works such as an individual icon, or perhaps a beatnik skin, preferring the more 'complicated' proggy skins and can sympathize with the frustration of seeing a flood of individual icons displacing works that may take days or weeks.
My opinion is that this will change...one way or another...

And my wife wants to have a bit of my time also. But nevertheless WC is my second home.

Same here, but no big deal. I don't have tons of stuff to go through and moderate.

Iconpacker should become into the 'highest'.
Working on some icons and takes me about half an hour to create one singel icon!

I agree full icon suites have to be one of the most challenging things to create in the world of skinning. Especially the really good icons.
Changing your icons is a mjaor step to changing how your destop looks.
