Three Years on WinCustomize (and counting...)

what will the next three years bring?

This may not matter to most of you, but it does for me.  I can't believe that today marks the three year anniversary of me joining WinCustomize (Member since 1/15/2008).

Remember when I threatened to leave this site?  Click http://vistartxposed.wincustomize.com/articles.aspx?aid=354371 to read it.  I'm glad that I decided to pull-through and stay as an active member of this community.

Here is what I want to accomplish during the next three years (If anybody cares):

->Build a "Glassphire 2" Icon Set (Command Prompt is already finished.  Click https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/misc_icons/4284/ to download.)

->Build a "Glassphrie 2" WB skin.  (The current one is rather dated, as it doesn't support Win7.)  Click https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/windowblinds/6924/ to download.)

->Upgrade my member status to the next rank up (whatever that may be)

->Upload more super-cool screenshots!

->Maybe think up of some completely new projects.

And that's all I can think of for now.

I hope to still serve as an active member of WinCustomize throughout the next three years as well.

Comments are welcome.

*sigh.

Many times, and in many different places this has been covered, but to reiterate:

There are two certain ways that one/one's "friends" prevent promotion here at WC:

1) Asking for or talking about why you believe you deserve it: Those who promote don't like the "They'll do/did it to please me" or the "They'll do/did it because X said he/she deserved it". Those who do promote members don't wish to appear as if they were influenced by anyone's say so.

2) Being cruel/purposely unkind to other Community members. A member becomes eligible or not for promotion by one's behavior in Forums and in the Galleries: Viz. "in public".

Hope this helps you enjoy the next three years as successfully as you hope. Keeping the above in mind should certainly help.

I took it more as an aim...than talking himself up and saying he deserved it... part of the 3 year plan... nothing wrong with striving.....;)

good luck with it all VistArtXPosed...  :thumbsup:

You've been here three years!  That long, really?  :O

It's so nice to know that there are 'young folks' in the community who someday will turn into the 'old folks'. :-"  :rofl:  

Hope your next three years are as enjoyable for you. :sun:

I'm hoping that you'll put some more art work out, and congratulations on your three years.
