Taskbar: Center alignment and custom folders in Start Menu Products Stardock Forums

I'm using Start 11 (10 when I first got it) on Windows 10. I have a custom folder set up to act as a Quick Launch area. I have my taskbar on the left side of my main monitor. So the configuration is basically like this (only on its side -- imagine the bullets represent the top edge): Custom folder System icons (pinned/running apps) Start 11 Taskbar options include a "How would you like you taskbar configured?" section and I have set this to "Posit

$51 for Tropico 3? And that's with the 10% discount? Sorry, but I'll be passing on that one -- over inflated regional pricing just isn't acceptable to me.

There is obviously a problem with the pricing, as those two games were priced at 7.11 yesterday and now 7.05 today. It seems to me, that it's basing the dollar price off the same system that calculates the daily exchange rates. It's too bad too, as I would have happily bought one of those games at $4.99 but I'm not buying it when the pricing is obviously glitched. Lost sale I'm afraid guys...

Is there any reason why both Imperium Romanum and Star Assault are advertised as being $4.99 but are infact shown as being $7.03 on the store pages and in the shopping cart? Don't tell me you now do regional pricing on sales!?

A: This is something we’re particularly interested in too. I would personally like to see some duel maps (1 on 1). I’ll have more info on this soon. I would love this. I think it will be one of the thingd that really gets me playing online. So far, I'm reluctant to play online (ping permitting) as I don't really want to burden a team with my lass than stellar skills >_> With 1 v 1, I'll probably feel a little more comfortable and if I lo

Snagged that Hack and Slash bundle as soon as I saw it. Always been a little interested in Space Hack and for $5 with another game too? Can't go wrong =) Hope to see more such deals soon.

Reply to Demigod: Breakthru in Demigod Journals Stardock Forums

if you're in Japan and it uses a proxy server in Singapore, you're adding 200ms to your latency which can make the game a total lag nightmare. so this is clearly your last result. This sums up fairly nicely why I play very few games online. Japan is apparently supposed to have some of the fastest internet connections going, but the reality is that most of us actually have connections far slower than people in the US along with having the added problem of dealing with ser

Some XP related questions before purchasing in DeskScapes Stardock Forums

Is the demo still only Vista only or should it work on XP? I did try it on XP but get a run DLL error. Will this work on non English versions of XP? Useful information concerning my system: Windows XP Pro, SP 3, Japanese language Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT with latest drivers (Sorry for the brief post, but I did try posting before, and it's been eaten by a 500 error each time)

Reply to Demigod: So much for piracy in Demigod Journals Stardock Forums

if you’re one of those people on Hamachi or GameRanger playing a pirated copy and have been for more than a few days, then you should either buy it or accept that you’re a thief and quit rationalizing it any other way. I totally agree with you. The one thing I hate most about pirates is the way they constantly try to justify their actions -- trying to lay the blame on anyone but themselves. "Oh, I pirated it due to the DRM" or "I pirated it due to th

I haven't even tried to play online yet, but the thing I would most like to see addressed before the addition of content, is the ability to actually start the game. Right now, the only way I can start it is to click the shortcut several times as fast as possible in the hope that eventually it'll start, of course, then I have to close all the error pop ups too -- it's mildly annoying.
