Zippo
Saturday, February 7, 2004 by Vlodec | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Beware the Zippo.exe file in the Suites section. Windows XP thinks it's a DOS program. When executed it resulted in an error (it made my printer churn out page after blank page), and worst of all it then refused to be deleted, even after a reboot and even in safe mode. and if you think the fault must lie in my system, well perhaps, but check out the file size. It's given as 10Mb, which it isn't.

That was your problem, you didn't get all of it. That happens sometimes. That's why it's best to check the file size that is given and compare it with the size of the file you downloaded.
See Jafo, the sysmetrix doesn't work properly in the Winstyles theme download. So, it was a relevant comment. It didn't work properly for me either. But, I figured out what was wrong.
Still, its a great theme.

| The downloaded file on my HD is about 2.4k in size btw. |

| Jafo is right, wonder if it was updated 'cause in the version I downloaded the Symetrix skin didn't work and I had to download it separately. |

Sysmetrix skin didn't work properly for me either. I ended up downloading it from Zippo's site.

Chas...no, you placed the comment about the non-working sysmetrix on the sysmetrix page which DOES work, confusing people.
Maybe the one included in the Full package didn't work but then that is where the comment 'should' have been placed...in the relevant location....

Well, it was a sysmetrix error. So, I posted it on the sysmetrix page. How was I suppose to know that the sysmetrix in the full package didn't work right and the sysmetrix in the single download, did work right? My idea was to give this information to the artist. Making it seem like I was unduly trying to criticize the artist didn't help, and it didn't make me look very nice. I like Pixtudio themes very much, I was only trying to give them information.

Chas....it's no biggie, except as I explained on the Zippo sysmetrix skin post, there was nothing wrong with that particular file at all, the problem was with another one....
Just the right comment in the wrong place, that's all....no dramas....
