contractarlist, <br /> <br />I´m glad to see you are trying to "earn" something. Might I suggest mowing lawns or doing extra chores around your house? When my children want something that is usually the route they take. That or screaming uncontrollably until I submit. <br /> <br /> :Happy

I got I freeware INSTALLER from pcworld I tried to find the link just now but it is uselessly lost. Its there somewere. Any way I can´t begin to use it till I understand how to Tell it what to add to the registry. <br /> <br />I´ve got windows blinds now, and skinstudio. I screwed up my last two attempts at installing litestep 2 years ago, I´m not keen to try again at a unfamiliar shell replacement for a while. So I think I will just to my luck at skining windows blinds <br />or msstyles for a whlie. :p

Thought of topic recently when reading news about 5.10 beta I think in SD central browser window. For the heck of it clicked TRY NOW link and read comments on it, seems trial version of WB 5.10 is now functional for two months and might have not all functions yet but in 2 months things can happen. Glad to see the helpful spirit around here. Later you could upgrade to OD incl. Skinstudio so as to gain time, including that ones trial options first maybe. I started with icon packager and upgraded later to od. In fact, was keener on cursor xp plus first which is separate though, but also existed unlimited free with less options when I got into it all. <br /> <br />Btw the ASTON site also has a trial phase for there skinning app and say if you make a skin they accept - sureley some work, but nevertheless an option, they would unlock your registration permanently (this was some months ago, that app might also be worth some support. Ideally you would make a separate user account on pc for it because it works completely different with your icons, shell, etc.) <br /> <br />Some might even make suites for both versions once they have their images made or have permissions for them. <br /> <br />And yes, good question, should uploaders make more things with installers so as to make it easier/cheaper for the downloader? <br /> <br />The screensaver maker I bought recently but havent managed to test much (manual 100 pages, installing takes time, e-mailing bout laptop license etc.) DOES make installers, even with unlock codes if you like, and allows for users configuring settings individually. But from MY end, THAT app was 50โฌ, and in moderation mask the other day, where we are forced to do more malware checks lately before approval, I realized this installer thing (inside a zip, again, which format, how deep are your scanners and how good - this week false alarms from data becker and bit defender btw) also means more time and or staff if we TEST all installers. <br /> <br />OR we just say, download at own risk, please yall tell us fast if anyone finds a virus, then we remove but no checking. Hmh. Good questions. Because technically, installers ARE interesting. <br /> <br />But your main issue was solved fast, thanks everyone! :) ๐ :aw

I have 5.01.... believe it was $29.99 but I´m not sure. I´m not sure what your situation is, but put aside a couple of bucks a week. You´d be surprised how fast you could save up for it. I realize that I am fortunate the I can afford these things, and some cannot. So, that is the only advice that I can give- put aside a couple of bucks a week. <br /> <br />Good luck.

I´m going to have to step down from my "work for windows blinds" request. <br />I truely thank you for your support. I´ve all ready started saving up for that one. <br />But I would still be intrested in what ever 3D modeling, or art programs you may have <br />to offer (links welcomed). I would also like to do some collaboration on a theme anyone <br />may be working on. I will no longer be requesting anything in return. I have been <br />inspired by a friend to be more selfless, and work to help make SkinBase a even more <br />enjoyable place to befriend others, share our work, and help each other. This friend did <br />not tell me any of this I´m only learning from his example. Again I would like to thank <br />you all for support.

โ VERY good idea! This thread. A bit earlier but I realized a bit late Stardock themselves needed more feedback on betas. I dont know if that means anything, and now they are sort of changing their strategy anyway. But I hope people post offers here sometimes can be linked back to this message, its not bad. <br /> <br />So basically, the OD suite would make sense I guess. But you can upgrade in stages... <br /> <br />Hmh If 5 people can spare 10$ around Xmas and we dont have millions of people wanting more after that, maybe I could be 1 of em if nothing happens til then. <br /> <br />Right now I get some help (cheap or free keys) for some testing and translating around some tool forums which takes time but is fun because they fulfil some of your program feature requests. Too bad its other tools though. Saving up on 1 or 2 things myself (9 birthdays this week but if it could wait til XMas, I could see helping A BIT). ๐ <br /> <br />You are talented and doing nice stuff. Basically industry should offer more installment plans and rates for young people and things :, <br /> <br />Reading another thread I just realized you might be a maker of CD cover albums like Sally, hey?

Mabe someone just needs a hand in a theme they are working on, and would like to colaborate, pay maybe on a piece-meal basis. โ

Many sites are grateful for translations + feedback. Dont know if Stardock is looking for translators but some of their apps arent german in all help texts. What do I know? Who speaks what language. In the end, you cant even skin or go on photo trips, instead you are translating :( Must admit it strokes ego plus they add features u like and help with registration keys but testing and stuff, its all a bit more than saving a buck. On the other hand, tragically I should confess often having more time than money, so... at least those things can help :p

Taxi you are too kind and generous. I would rather earn it though. It makes me feel quilty and ashamed for some odd reason to think of taking from someone who is a real hard worker, and dedicated to helping others, without giving something in return. โค๏ธ โ :taxi

โค๏ธ ๐บ I have made a freehand of an album cover! It is in my gallery called journy. I was only paid 15$ the amount of effort to duplicate in pencil, the image in as close to an exact entirity, was worth more than that I think. But I also didn´t want to do it in the first place, which might mean something. The work I´ve been doing for skinbase is fun and exciting. I´ve realy been polishing my skills, and finding new ones ( my space themes).
