WC personal sites & recommending skins

Thursday, October 28, 2004 by Keila | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I have noticed that I can only recommend a skin from the authors personal web site (please correct me if I am wrong). The only problem is that sometime these are hard to find. some authors name their sites different the their author name. This is understandable but non the less very difficult to find their sites at times.
This morning I wanted to recommend and feature The Skins Factory, Halloween-2003 for WinMedia. Problem was I never did find their WC web site. I am assuming that there is one because VF has skins recommended by them.
I was wondering if it could be done so that everyone that has a WC site that it could be auto added to their profile. I realize that each author can just add it themselves like I have done but not all will think of that. Besides there is only one place to add a web site and they are used for there other personal site.
Please, if it can be done, make it easier to recommend skins.
Thanks.
WOM

If you make a comment on the skin it will show in your recent activity.
Then you can add it to your favorites from your own site.

Iben, that helps.
But, what if it is an older skin and you commented on it a while ago. Still need another way to be able to do this a bit easier.

With WC2K5 [http://www2.wincustomize.com], it is now possible to recommend a skin by going to the details view of a skin and clicking on the "Recommend this skin" link. For this to work, make sure that you have cut off any pop-up blockers, and that you are logged into your account at WC2K5.

Any questions?

Thanks again Byron for all your help.

On another note. I would like to add what a wonderful job T-Man has done with all of this.
Who would have thought WC could get better then it is already?
