Keep a Word - Drop a Word

0

Quite simple:  I start off with 2 words.  The next person keeps one of the words and replaces the dropped word with another.

Examples:  Run fast

                 Fast cars

                 Cars rock

My word to start:  Christmas holiday

Compatibility Issues

I installed WindowBlinds 8 Beta yesterday and ran into these issues:

 

Logitech Gaming Software will not load under any condition while WindowBlinds is running

 

Google Chrome Browser crashes universally, any webpages in their respective tabs will not load (state crashed)

 

Once I had uninstalled WindowBlinds the Chrome Browser worked perfectly fine and I had to unload WindowBlinds to get Logitech Software to work.

The most enjoyable book you've ever read that people you like and respect really trashed

We invert the last question--so instead of a book you've really hated that friends recommended highly to you, now we have a book you ended up liking a great deal, that friends and such panned.

 

I'd have to go with the fourth part (book) of Gulliver's Travels. Back in junior high (which for those of you who aren't USian, means about twelve to fourteen years of age) I read the version in my school library. It consisted of the first three parts of GT, but not the controv...

I was wondering if there was a way to have systemtray icons as a flyout menu item on OD 2.1?

Also is it possible to move the system tray icons from left side of dock to right? (OD on bottom of screen)

Thanks in advance to any & all who can help

 

Feature Request

I would like an option to mirror a dock onto multiple displays. As it stands, I have to create a second dock and it always crams on top of the primary dock if I disable my secondary display. 

 

This dock would have to gain / lose focus and animate independent of the primary display dock as well, but synchronize tiles / shortcuts.

Do You "Skin" Your Browser Start Page?

0

Well maybe skinning isn't the correct word for this.  How about "customize" your browser start page?  I have used iGoogle for ages as my browser start page.  It displays some news headlines, a few RSS feeds, my inbox, weather info, etc.

So back to the question.  Do you "customize" your browser start page?

Post a screenshot if you do!

Peak oil is upon us!

Recently, a Wiki Leaks cable indicated fears that Saudi oil supplies are overestimated by as much as 40 percent.

Global production is on a plateau for some 5 years, and most large, cheapest oil fields are in decline.

Many countries, like China, Indonesia, and notably Egypt stopped exporting oil and started importing.

Jeff Rubin sees the dwindling oil supplies in Egypt as a major reason for the current political changes - the country could not afford to subsidize food anymore, and the re...

Hi,

I have Windows 8 Pro 64bit on my machine, after installing and registering windowblinds the main skin selection screen comes up. I can choose any of the skins on screen when a dialog box comes up stating windowblinds not installed correctly and do I want to fix this, I click yes but no skin gets applied.

I have tried to uninstall then re-install, but I get the same error message.

I know its a beta, but can any one help on this matter.

Thanks

Distant Worlds Shadows

I'm glad I got in on the beta for FE:LH, all that time with the game was great but the day after release I picked up the new expansion for Distant Worlds and I don't think I'm gonna look back, the improvements to the engine are so good that it feels like an all new game, and it's one that'll suck up months on end

Why is it taking so long to process my order

0
0
I placed my order for Object Desktop, Tweak 7 and Objectdock Plus v2 last Saturday. I was advised that it would take up to 2 working days to process the order. Well it's now another weekend and still when I log on it says I have no orders and strangely the shopping cart still says I have 3 items in it despite receiving an order confirming the order and giving me an order number 2171806.

Can someone from Stardock please look into this as I am getting concerned.

Many thanks.

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...

WindowBlinds 8 Feature Request

Might I ask for an added function. I'd like to see the name of the skins in the previews without having to mouse over the preview. That's just me.

 

Being able to store the WB skins in a different location would be awesome as well.

Issue With Auto-Hide Feature

While using multiple displays, my docks stop detecting full screen applications and it pops up when I am playing games / watching full scree videos. It causes my applications to minimize. Nothing seems to fix it short of deactivating my second display or unloading ObjectDock.

StarDock central has updated Tweak7 6 times in 5 days on my Windows Vista system because apparently, it's still showing up in StarDock Central as version 1.50 even though when I launch it 2.0.1 is actually installed and running! How do I fix this so it stops reinstalling every day?!?

Windowblinds 7.9 GUI performance side effect?

0
0
Is it just me or does the new Windowblinds actually speed up the UI. My GF uses drawing applications that run a bit slower in Win8 than Win7 but after WB7.9 was installed these issues seemed to go away. Is WB7.9 overriding the desktop renderer in Win8? Just curious not that this is an issue or bug . Just wondering what could cause this positive side effect. (I had her test this by unloading and reloading a skin and the effect was that when WB was unloaded the slow drawing issue came back but wh...
