Goetz&acute;s file splitter <BR>Fav-to-HTML <BR>JpegConverter <BR> <BR>and EditPad Classic <BR> <BR>While none of these are skinnable they are all great survival tools for those places where the sysadmin is a maniac. <BR> <BR>For me ControlBar has been the most useful skinnable app. (that sysadmin killed all of the toolbars...not just the quicklaunch). <BR> <BR>OH! and don&acute;t let me forget FrontPage Express.

KewlpÄd, colorpad, Cursearch! and Panekiller is the one I use the most and I actually did thank them at one time. But in general I use too much freebies for me to list them all here.

I must say that the most frequently used freeware on my box is LiteStep. However, you are correct Jason, we don&acute;t get a chance to actually thank the creators and Dev teams. I am also talking about module creators that I never get the chance to thank and there are just way to many to mention. As a matter of fact, along with LiteStep core modules.. I use more LS freeware modules then all other skinning apps put together. <BR>LS is self contained.. when I am running my &acute;larger&acute; themes, the only non LS skinning app I use is WB (EFX) because LS comes with modules that just about cover any task. There is even an ICQ plug for LS.. hehe. However, I do get to use, test and skin other freeware. 8) <BR> <BR>And most frequently used non LS freeware app on my desktop is... ICQ+ <BR>;P <BR> <BR>

Well,. the problem with winsite is that it is unmoderated, so anyone can submit to it,... for example: It has Babya downloads... :| I go to skinnables.org for most of my software needs (although i dont need much..).

Great reminder Scarebear! Freeware plays a big part in the skinning world and we really should thank the authors. If it is freeware I am thankful for it, even if I don&acute;t use it! LiteStep and Winamp2 would be my two favorites. PK and Pogz make great freeware apps too! <br />So I would like to say THANK YOU PK and THANK YOU pogrelz! :)

Ezpop. A powerfull App: Mail Checker, Notepad, Popup Blocker, Reminder, AntiSpam, IP Indication and great Skins ( e.g. Animus and AnimusII ). <br />New Users should try it. Link: http://ezpop.hoverdesk.net/ <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />

Diggin&acute; up all the <b>old</b> threads eh? ;) <br />Thats quite ok, as long as its for a valid reason :)

EZPop - all the way. Fun to skin, INVALUABLE TO USE. The fact that you can get right to the mail server without downloading makes it a tool that I use all the time, especially when troubleshooting email problems with clients. <br /> <br />

Ahh...this thread. <br /> <br />It being almost Valentines day, here&acute;s a freeware love story for you. LOL <br /> <br />Back in Sept. my computer blew up. Power supply went and took everything but ATI card. I got it fixed and got it back, but didn&acute;t have a DVD codec anymore... <br /> <br />I could buy one for $40 sure, but I went looking for something free first and found it. http://www.videolan.org makes the skinnable VLC media player which works without said DVD codec. Maybe there are others out there, but this is the only one I found that would. Now I love it. ❤️ LOL

An invaluable little application is sTile99 by Harmware available from thepluginsite.com in the resources section under free programs. I have never had it off my computer since I found it four years ago....has some neat little distortions and you can make basic walls with just that one little app. :o
