Rat Pack News Letter Weds. 6-5-07 6:30p.m.
Message from Jafo to AzDude and ( Rat Pack ) :
AzDude...hi....
Just a note to request that you be much more moderate/reserved in your use
of animations within forum posts on Wincustomize.com
The issue is that too many causes dramatic peaks in CPU usage for anyone
reading/accessing these threads. The danger is that doing so may adversely
impact on the viewer's system, and even without subsequent system/program
failures/errors the high CPU load reflects poorly on the site's enjoyment in
general.
This is not an 'attack' on your 'Rat Pack' group, or those who are posting
screenshots, etc, simply a general request that would/does apply to
everyone.
Animated Avatars for the site were rejected as an option for exactly the
same reason, being both a system drain as well as an unnecessary distraction
to others.
My original comment that 'dark glasses are needed to read the thread' was
perhaps a little too subtle as it was a comment with the same intent as this
PM.
I expect one of the major 'drains' is the glitter text and overlapping text
you use. If you must post comments using 'bright' text please confine its
use to that which is available in the forum post options.
Thankyou.

So bottom line is show moderation ,,,, these words were aimed at forum posts
but SS comments were not mentioned ,,,, I guess a little moderation there too
won't hurt ... meaning I guess less glitter and smaller animations .
pictures are OK though , no body right now is complaining about Screenshot comments
just forum posts . I'm probably the biggest offender , I will tone it down a bit

Along with using older skins at times, nostalgia themes for me are always a nice change from the daily grind. ��

Theme shots are always Great they tell a story ,
ya know a pictures is somtimes worth a 1000 words ,
like the screenie i just did ..then i actually added some words too.
I have Vista 64-bit and some of the WC stuff still doesn't work . such as W Blinds and Icon Pkg ... so it's hard to do a good SS and mix it up
enough to be different every time like JM and others
to get around this i started doing Theme shots like the animal shots
my pets or my house hunting shots- girlie shots , etc
to try to let the theme do the talking instead of all the decor
that i cant do right now
So i guess that's what I was hinting at before when i
said think outside the box , is to mix it up some so SS's
don't look like your just changing walls and just moving gadgets around
Route 66 means something to some of us and takes you
back to another time ... so's a nice choice for a wall
So just remember when stuck what to do - let the wall
do the talking for you ...... buys ya some time till ya
think of a nifty new idea for another screenie ..
anyway just my 2cents...
Great SS , just the theme alone !!!

Appreciate the kind words Shenaynay �� Don't have to tell you that sometimes when a thought or idea gets in your head unless you do something it will stay there like a bad song. ��

Oh yeah, the good ol' days when $5 bucks was nearly a full tank of gas! A feast was a cheese burger and a malt, penny candy, TV had to adhere to the code of good taste and signed off at midnight to the National Anthem, we even had hide-n-seek and hop scotch championships of the world!
Our own little safe world!
You see where this shot took me to John!�
Nice clean set up Mr Philly, you know I've collected all of your shots, however I do wish to challenge you to take your designs to a higher level of integrations.
Let's see how you feel about DXT's, OD's, intense IP's either synched or opposite the OD's, Winstep's and so on.
You've Mastered yourself, now go beyond that!
I'm here for you my friend, the silliest question is the one you don't ask!
Cp
FYI: I'm a little slow getting to my comments and have very little time to get a shot out. I'm always watching over the pack at home and work, trust me, and if I have to bust out with something nasty to remind you, you know I will!
I expect nothing but greatness from you John, you are a strong voice of the pack and the pack has nothing but respect and love for you! And this is why my expectations for you are sky high!
There's nothing that you can't do John!
