Icons broken after uninstal

$

I recently gave IconPackager a whirl. When I decided to go back to defaults and remove the program all seemed fine. I selected the default Windows icon set and uninstalled the program. I've now found though that Live Folders are still using the icon set I had previously selected, and so are a few special folders here and there (such as recent places). Does anyone know a way to fix this?

Reserve edge of screen keeps failing over and over and I have to set it again everytime.

The close "X" button fro the settings is kind of broken, is hard to get it to close the window. Is like the programmed mouse click area is misaligned.

Has anyone been able to install any version of DestopX lately?

I have been struggling with trying to install DesktopX after a recent rebuild of my Win7 Pro system. I have tried from both the Stardock Central app and the downloaded installer from my account. I have tried both the regular and the professional version (I have purchased the professional, and have OD.) Everytime I try to install it says the serial number isn't correct. (I have even tried swapping them up to see if maybe the stored serial numbers were wrong, you know pro and regular!)

Hi guys. I'm doing a folder for Dropbox... the idea is that when you drag a file over the object, the file will be moved on that folder. How can I do this possible? Many thanks in advance.

Lastest Objectdock 2.1 Crashing

I just upgraded to the latest version of OD on Win 7 x64 and have consistent issues with Objectdock crashing at random times.

When these crashes happen, it will crash my browser and any other programs that are open and running at the time.

Any ideas? For the moment, I'm going to roll back to the previous version.

The weird social life of a tech CEO in Michigan

The number of tech companies in Michigan is…well not very high.  And I’ve noticed a trend over the past 20 years: As time goes on, an ever increasing percentage of my friends that I talk to socially boil down to one of 3 categories:

Lawyers.  When I started the company, I didn’t know any lawyers. The first lawyer I hired I found through the yellow pages. At our 10 year anniversary, I think about a quarter of my active friends were lawyers. Today, it’s probably about half. ...

PC Magazine put out a ten question “quickie” to test your knowledge about key loggers, viruses, phishing, etc.

It was fun to take…no stress. The nice thing? The explanations of the correct answers.

Comodo & Windowblinds

Hey,

Just wanted to drop a post here to say that I am working with the Comodo mods/devs to hopefully get it fully working along side Windowblinds.

Link to comodo topic: http://forums.comodo.com/bug-reports-cis/comodo-windowsblinds-causes-crashes-t93566.0.html

Just a heads up to the stardock staff: The comodo devs may require a serial for testing purposes (not sure if they have one). 

Invisible Dock

I am using the newest version 2.1. I created a tabbed dock and then deleted most of the tabs, and then I deleted my main tab by accident. When I tried deleting the dock to start a new one, the dock would not delete nor will it allow the creation of tabs. Now it's just an invisible dock that's sitting on my dock list.

Who's the MOD in charge...

I would send a PM but I don't know who to contact so I'll just throw it out here in front of everyone. Maybe they will see it. Heck, my name should raise a red flag with at least one of them.

So here's the deal. I uploaded a skin(cursor)yesterday and now it's on the home page(new skin)and it's on my page but it's not on my skins list and it's not in the CursorFX gallery. I don't remember checking the box for "show on my page only" but ya never know.

The amazing Entlebucher mountain dog

As a side-hobby, I run the Facebook Entlebucher page. Entlebuchers are an amazing breed of dog.  They’re closely related to the Bernese Mountain Dog and the Swiss Mountain dog.  What sets them apart is size, life span, and hair length.  Entlebuchers are about 50 pounds, they have short hair and live around 14 years. 

Personality wise, Entlebuchers (pronounced Ent-Lee-Booker or Ent-Lees) are velcro dogs. That is, they want to always be with you.  There is a saying...

Recently I was involved in a discussion regarding the two Boston Marathon bombers.  It started off with someone expressing concern about the amount of anger and hatred being directed towards the bombers.

I am dismayed and afraid about the amount of hate and vengeance for the two who planted the bombs. It is spreading the attitude of vengeance in our country. I saw a quote from Ghandi this morning which I have not verified, but it struck me as true. "An eye for an eye will make ...

The Amazing Walt Disney

I’ve been doing a lot of reading on Walt Disney recently and he tale is both amazing and quintessential.  His professional life was a conflict between his desire to do amazing work with the challenges of running a business.

Early in his career, Disney was devoted to moving “cartooning” into being a serious art. His first true sound cartoon, the famous Steamboat Willy, required the invention of numerous new technologies in order to synchronize the sound with the animation.  It was ...

3D Printer Opinions

3D Printing seems to have crossed a major mile stone in that a start-up, called Defense Distributed, has used a 3D printer to create a working gun. It’s still mostly a curiosity since the cost to make such a gun and that it isn’t yet very robust still keeps it firmly in the early adopter era.

So here’s what I’ve found out so far :

No matter which printer you get, the materials for it are currently over $100 a pound. To me, that makes it fairly impractical for most uses. I could imagine...

Back in the 80's Ted Turner colorized both of these movies, yet I've never seen either one on cable tv or on dvd.  Anyone else remember watching these on TNT and where are they now?

Question on versions

Received email announcing Objectdock 2.1 but looking at the Stardock Central Installer, the only thing that shows available for download is Objectdock plus version 1.90.  Are they different products, interested since I'm using windows 8 and the 2.1 version says it supports it, not sure about the 1.90 version.

 

Thanks.

One year anniversary

Hey folks,

A year ago today I moved in to my apartment after a spell of living on the streets. One whole year with a roof over my head and a warm bed to sleep in. Whether or not you know it many of my friends here helped make that possible. With support and kind words and some encouragement to go along with it. I may not be here as much, my book is taking up so much of my time, nor have I skinned as much for the same reason. However in the year I've been here things are so much better. Be...

So, not just any book that you found tedious or poorly-written, but a book that came with great praise from people you respect. Just the worst of these, if you please.

 

 

Calling WB Skinners A new kind of WB Request

To all the great artists here at wincustomize

This is a request for a windowblind which I think is a bit different.

I was wondering if someone could do a windowblind where the taskbar is in 3d along the z-axis alot like objectdock is.

A bit like frankells screenshot here http://www.wincustomize.com/explore/objectdock_backgrounds/452/ although he advises me this is not a WB.

Any takers?  I appreciate this is time consuming & you are all v busy with real life, but I thought it...
