Moving ObjectDock Free to new PC?

0
0
I have a nice collection of docklets on my old Windows XP machine, but it is heading to the bit bucket in the sky soon. I recently bought a nice new Windows 7 Pro x64 laptop to replace it, but I'm not sure how to get my old stuff over to the new machine without having to laboriously recreate them one by one.

I did see a thread about this after a quick search, but that was dealing with the location in windows 7, not XP. I'm sure there are other threads, but I didn't find ...

New Type of Malware–Steals Your Info at Store Register

Meet “vSkimmer”.

Say you wanted to be secure and not do business over the internet. You just wanted to go to the store and buy what you needed and “pay” at the register. That’s secure, right? Wrong.

In the past you bought gas and used the credit card swiper at the pump. Well, the machine could be “crooked” and record your card and then someone could take them off the machine. The solution was simple. Just pay with cash.

Stores are secure, though. Nope. Well, not for t...

Problems with Fences 2.1

Hi,

 

I have been experiencing a problem with Fences 2.1 that occurs after I install the application on my Windows 8 x64 operating system.

 

The scenario:  Before installing Fences 2.1, I am able to freely move my desktop icons to any location I please, without the "Align to Grid" and the "Auto Arrange" options selected; which prevents free-move of icons.  I had these two options turned off and my icons were where I wanted them to be to begin with.

Windowblinds for Windows 8 Schedule

Hi Guys,

 

I know you have mentioned that you would not have a build ready for the launch but I was wondering what sort of timeline you would expect?

 

I ask because I'm due a workstation upgrade and its going to include a fresh W8 install. I didn't install WB on my current computer as I always found Windows 7 pretty enough for me, however after two weeks with Visual Studio 2012 Pro I'm starting to pine for pretty windows again.

Make empty fences invisible?

0
0
Hi

 

The SubTitle pretty much says it all.

I made a fence for temporary files - that is, documents with assignment descriptions for today's class in school etc. which I would like quick access to for a few days (which is why I store them on the desktop). Often, that fence will be empty, and thus does not need to be visible. On the other hand, when a file is in it, I would like it to be constantly visible.

I set Fences to always place documents in that fence, so I won't h...

A request for all those skinners out there

I've been downloading skins here since 2007 and Love all the wonderful artistic talent I've seen with all of the skins.

I've only had one occaisional problem and it may be the contrast level of my monitor. In a few of the skins I've downloaded, the contrast difference between type color and element background has been a bit close so it makes it hard to read some of the type. I know how hard it is to get a good contrast because some of the best designs I've seen out there h...

Navigating the site

Wincustomize is one of my favorite web sites. I’m a big fan of Stardock’s program’s which I’ve been using for about ten year’s now. It seems like I’m always finding different ways to find things on the site that I never even knew were there. There doesn’t seem to be a up to date or complete guide to navigating the win customize libraries anywhere that I have found, and I’ve spent a lot of time searching.

For example, I just figured out that ther...

I'm trying my first Winstep theme and I must say I need help.

 

I am hoping Xiandi or WebGizmos, or anyone else who skins Winstep might see this and help me?

 

I need to know which graphic the NextStart menu uses.

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 ...

I'm logged in currently because I've saved the relevant cookies and bookmarked WC with me already logged in.  This is on my main PC.  However, I cannot log in when using another device or browser that does not have my details saved.

For example, I have a net enable media player connected to my TV upstairs and I can navigate to Wincustomize easily enough, but for the life of me it won't let me login.  I must have tried 20 - 30 times earlier without result.  I tr...

Fences - Icons fall out of fences (Office Applications)

0
0
I've got actual version of Fences pro running on Windows 7 Pro. Everything is workin as expected except when I'm using MS Office Applications.

e.g. EXCEL files placed within a fence jump out every time, I save them. Off course I'v configured new icons to go to the desktop. And technically these icons are new, since office deletes the original file and recreates the icon from a temp file with the original name. But I would like these icons to stay within the fence I've placed t...
