Anyone having the problem of not being able to make a new paragraph or empty line when hitting the "enter" key? I hit enter to get to a new line or leave a blank line between text and nothing. (Can't even hit enter to drop down to the next line to put my sig)....DD

Tried both links and came up with zilch so someone must have heard your cry and taken care of it. Never ceases to amaze me the nonsense that some people will come up with. DD

Reply to Idea New Feature WindowBlinds 5.0 in OS Customization WinCustomize Forums

There's already free software out there that does exactly what was requested: Webshots. It has many different effects, you can either use stock images they provide to free customers, premium images for paid subscribers, and you can add your own images to the mix. It can be timed to change at different intervals or only when you decide to do it. For a freebie program that isn't packaged with any snoop/spy/advertizement ware it's pretty nice. I'm a

I once had 144 days and was still going until I forgot that if you keep ignoring the Windows Updates eventually it will reboot your computer for you if its a major update. I'm at 10 days now with no signs of problems. DD

Reply to Most useful widgets in OS Customization WinCustomize Forums

I like unique looking widgets. I don't use my Outlook except for business related mail so I use Rainlender all the time. I always have my Speed Ohhhh Dashboard widget running (I like to know what's doing what to my system when it's running). Since I have to travel quite a bit for work, I use the Fuel Price Checker widget quite frequently, but I activate it only when I need it, instead of letting it run continuously. The other widget I use all the

I very rarely ever use the WC website so I can't speak for how things are there, but I can say that my WC browser is much faster lately. Discussions that used to take minutes to load and show are popping up like popcorn in a hot skillet (bigger discussions/thread will take a bit longer, but they still are faster then before). Every once in a while I'll hit a thread or discussion that won't load, but that's always been a problem. Only problem I've b

I think the 'yellow thing' might be marzipan Actually the "yellow thing" is what's known in the US as a "Peep". Peeps are an Easter tradition (even more so in the Eastern US as the Just Born manufacturing company is in Pennsylvania - a short drive from where I live). Peeps are a marshmallow shaped form (

Happy Easter, to everyone in this little WC community. And, hey, does anyone know what is the best Easter Egg color? Eggs are very obvious symbols of resurrection and continuing life. Early humans thought the return of the sun from winter darkness was an annual miracle, and saw the egg as a natural

I'm not having any problems at the site, but rather my WC Browser. It's not updating and showing any new discussions for the forums for the last two days. I had to come to the website to see what new discussions were here at the forums. Any ideas what could be causing the WC Browser to not update? I perfer to use my WC Browser to read the forums and download content vs. the website. Thanks for all the hard work and welcome to Dean! DD

Reply to New Rating System in WinCustomize Site Issues WinCustomize Forums

I could be wrong but that still seems to be all about numbers.... In this case, the numbers are relative to the comments not the rating of a skin; the better question would be of the 1300 or so comments gotten at the other site, how many are REALLY communicating some kind of discussion on the merits
