Well? Where are you?

Sunday, October 2, 2005 by Bichur | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I realize this is only the 3rd day.
Just curious since I haven't seen any DX Themes or Icon Packages yet --- Can we expect some? Are there any uploaded awaiting mod? Y'all holding out until later?

I'm working on a DX Theme, but it's the first one I have ever done so I'm not sure if I am doing it right.

I here ya. I still haven't been able to do one worth letting anyone see... My skills are so limited I was vastly surprised I got the 'view link' thing above right on the 1st try!

I'll be waiting for yours. Considering some of the cursors you've given us...any hints?

It's holiday based, and it's very simple.  I like minimalist themes.  Like I said, some people have DX themes where it's a total "environment", and some just have a collection of objects.  It's hard to figure out a nice balance.

simple works for me.
or a nice layout - some of the one's with lots o goodies throw me as far as use. i still like SSDDDX, the layout works for me. Keep at it, you got 2 wks.

I thought JJ Ying posted an IP, but the image of it is in his Preview for the blinds. I guess the Pack is not available yet.

Something was wrong with it causing IP crashes according to another thread.

If I recall right the DX section is down right now (for approving uploads)... think Jafo told me something along those lines.

I'm trying to make a DX Theme,but i'm kinda stuck,trying to make it as minimal as possible and as multifunctional as possible. If i work hard it'll be ready for competition,but with midterms coming up i don't see that happening any time soon.

Contest ends on Oct 14.
A week extension might be granted considering delayed uploads or approvals due to site issues.

It concerns me that no new DX Theme have been approved yet. Not even those competing on the contest.

I was told by FL yesterday that it was due to problems with the moderator lib access. At least it's across the boards, so no unfair advantage.

Hey A_67 i suggest that you do extend the competition for a further week,since there is still that problem with DX Themes!
