Suggestions for 2014 WC Community Project

Suggestions for 2014 WC Community Project

The last community skin we did was the Holiday Community Suite back in 2009.  I wouldn't mind doing another winter holiday suite, but that's for later in the year.

https://forums.wincustomize.com/363398/

So lets start getting ideas for the next community suite.  Do we go for a season like Spring or Summer?  Another holiday?  A different type of theme?

Lets hear it and discuss it and get moving on the next one.

sydneysiders with Theme Manager Suites not an option it would appear that the only way to get notice for the project is once everything is uploaded a thread be done where the list of skins with links could be shown with some desktop screenshots.  The thread should be pinned so it stays at the top of the forums.  I was going to suggest using the ScreenShot Gallery but it would just get pushed backed with new uploads. 

I wonder if Island Dog could be convinced to help with that?

probably what he requested the list with links for methinks....  :|      :)

think we've gained some notice throughout the project though with screenies in the screenshot gallery from the beginning and now the March Desktop screenie thread... and links in all the upload comment areas... but will be nice to have a finale type release thread with all the details..

Yes! I just might rearrange a few things over here. I need a bigger screen. :rofl:

  I forget that some people are still using the old version.

No problem I also didn't included the 1.9 version in the zipped file

this is a very fast trick just in this case and as some user requested

and naturally you can use it whenever you want ;)

I've upgraded to 2 this afternoon... but not sure I like the new way of doing the settings.... and not to be able to just scroll quickly through the icons & have them instantly show flicking down the list...but have to stop and click and choose each one... is an absolute pain...   :-|   I mostly don't choose by name.. but by just matching up... this takes wayyyyyy longer...     v_v

still, suppose it's better to update.... but I prefer the design of the previous one I must say... and a few things like..... Keep on the bottom.. and they don't... is very frustrating...

hoopees not to late ! maybe you could recover the old version from a backup

or install it again from http://www.filehippo.com/download_objectdock/8443/

personally I'm keeping both versions 1.9 and 2.0 just in two different folders

well I cannot use the 2.1 version because it's only for W7 and W8 ! :-"

thanks frankell... but I'll stick with it... don't want to have to be adjusting new docks that are made now on 2... I'll see how it goes...

just the scrolling inability being lost is unfortunate...  not sure the people who change these designs... really use them frequently themselves to know what features are valuable against what can be changed/improved...   :|

thanks for the option link to get back 1.9 though...might come in handy...  :)

Zoomers, Clock gadget and widget, multi gadget and widget coming today.

 

My zoomers work well with both versions of ObjectDock.

I personally don't like ObDock 2, but I have both installed.  I don't actually use ObjectDock, I only skin it.

 

From my end, all you gain with 2 is reflections, but the GUI isn't great and there is a convoluted workaround to get the plus and minus icons to work. So, I prefer 1.9.

I have the feeling that Matchbook is gonna knock our socks off. It takes time to render a true masterpiece. I can't wait.... :pout: :sun:    :star:
