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

Question.  I am using Atlantis word processor.  Every time I open it, a button shows up in the upper left corner and stays there until I minimize or close the application.  I have spoken to Atlantis about it and they say it must be something in Windowblinds causing it.  Is there anything that can be done about this or it is normal?  I am running the latest version of Windowblinds, Win8.1, (it has also happened with past versions) and only with Windowsblinds running.

It’s always a nice morning to come in and see a fresh batch of skins from such a talented skinner like Xiandi.  Today we have a set of skins submitted called Lapidi.  There’s a WindowBlinds skin, Winstep skin, and a skin for Rainlender so far.

Looks great, so be sure to download them all and keep an eye out for more!

For several years I've been using the Apple wireless keyboard that came with my iMac.  It has held up from use and I really can’t say anything bad about it, aside from the fact it’s small and the wireless version doesn't come with a numeric pad.  I had a coupon for Staples and saw the Logitech K750 wireless solar keyboard was on sale, so I decided to try it out as I was looking for something new.

I went with the Logitech K750 for a couple of reason.  First, ...

Fences does look very nice, and I can see why people would say after 5 minutes they want to use it forever.

Unfortunately the fact that the product just doesn't work has got to be a major problem.  On day one I had no problems, however on day 2, when i tried to move a fence, the icons stayed where they were, and were hidden when they were "out" of the fence.  so I could not move or resize them.  After a reboot, all the icons were gone to desktop.  I moved them back. &n...

Hello,

I have an anoying bug:

1- If I run photoshop using skin on it: I have an horizontal offset (to the left) when using the color selector (for example). So I tried over skins and the conclusion is that the amount of the offset is related to the width of the perpixel side frame.

2- Then, I tried excluding photoshop skining in WB8 options, And in this case I have not the offset problem BUT I have no image displayed !! (my image only appears in the navigation preview area (at top right...

I have some folder portals that point to areas located on an encrypted drive. When someone logs in the drive is mounted, but Fences runs first. Because the target folders don't exist, it shows a blank folder, which makes plenty of sense.

I'm trying to devise my own solution to this but so far nothing I've tried is working. I can't get fences not to run when I startup the computer, so I can't delay it being run. I tried calling the fences.exe file with /disable and then /en...

Is there a legit way to get WindowsBlinds 5.5 or earlier.

 

I'm running WinXP 64bit and the installer I borrowed from a friend for 6.0.2 said I needed 5.5.1 for my OS. Yet all I see on this site is WindowsBlinds 8 which is only compatible from Win7 or Win8. And I refuse to buy Win7 or Win8 till Microsoft stops support of WinXP which won't be till next year.

 

I would really like to have this software, so I ask is there a legit way to get WindowsBlinds 5.5?

In each reply, simply include the prase "I would give you karma, but" and insert a funny/rediculous reason why not to. And don't even THINK about it Anatar11. Anatar11 may now play if chosen to.

Karma will be given for the following posts:

1000
1074 (don't ask)
1111
1234
1500

Ok, so I decided to create a new Chatroom, because the old one was getting pretty....old! 

Everyone may post here, as well as in the good'ol Flameroom...I mean, Chatroom

I would like to keep this Chatroom civilized. Well, as civilized as most forum threads are (doesnt mean that you all have to be polite like Oatesy, lol).

So for this reason, I may update the OP of this thread in the future, posting certain thread rules, as I see fit.

Well, as the song goes, “Another one bites the dust”.

There’s no notice about the SourceForge installer (SFI) when you go to download software there. The SFI is only for Windows, not Linux or Mac.

I agree that devs need funding, and that’s a valid and good thing but bundling without notification isn’t the way. Pretty much all of us have left Download.com . Confusing installation choices isn’t either. The SFI uses the “Accept” or “Decline” choice leading the downloader to th...

For at least the last 10 years I've been running OD's Control Center on my company issued machine, mostly for the virtual desktop features.  My old XP machine has now been replaced by my company with a Windows 7 machine.  Desirous to not completely disrupt my work habits, I went to stardock.com, logged into my account, and downloaded the "Legacy" version available to me there.

Unfortunately it doesn't work all that well.  Even though I've tried locking certain w...

I'm posting this from my Surface RT (on an airplane no less).

When I first got my Surface RT, I really liked the hardware but the software was in a terrible state. 

Now, 9 months later, I am happy to report that Microsoft has so improved Surface RT that if I bought a Surface RT today and compared it to what I had back last Fall I would think it was a "Surface RT 2". 

So what's changed?

First off, it's much faster.  Gone is the lag when I was typing or launc...

I have WindowBlinds installed on Windows 8 and it seems that when I run any theme other than the default Windows 8 theme (YUCK!), when windows open on the secondary monitor in a maximized form, the window gets distorted and the only way to fix it is to un-maximize the window and re-maximize the window.  Also, it seems that there is some kind of extra border around the window that that seems to stop the window from fully maximizing on the secondary monitors and the contents of said maximized...
