I thought Mac users have already had something to change the style for some time. There's so many themes available for Mac, it's a big thing porting them over to Windows (I have several Mac-ported themes).

Oh comeon.....Apple invented skinning.......

See.....I knew it...

Yeah... i've known about shapeshifter for quite awile.. nothing new really.

Unless you are just referring to Mac OS X, I remember using Kaleidoscope on System 7.5 as far back as around 1995 or so. For the most part, it was what began my interest in customization. From there it was onwards to a PC and the likes of LiteStep and eFX, which all eventually lead me to Stardock.

Dear god people, get a sense of humor... the entire article was written tongue-in-cheek.

Relax? No, you people need to learn that "tongue-in-cheek" articles, shouldn't be featured on the homepage of a professional site. Keep ur joke posts strictly to the forum as a thread and not an article. Saying what you did, joke or not, would have spread the wrong message to those that didn't know any better, we want to spread facts not what one may think is funny, by poking fun at another os. You really need to grow up and keep frontpage articles professional, and not a bias opinion.

Steve, you should just relax, and stop trying to make this so 'politically correct'. Zoomba has taken the step of informing our community of a cool update to Shapeshifter, and if you dont like how the article was written, take it up with him in a private manner, either email or chat. If that had been the article it is now, I'd have probably though 'well laaaa-deee-daaa' and not taken a look. However, due to the funny nature of it, I now have learned that a new version's been released, and it looks very complete! How about... we stop trying to make it so 'professional' and instead work on expanding our community to include others, and give attention to the other skinning apps out there? Sound good? Mmmkay.

In the subtitle area I often place little joking comments regarding the news story. That will not change, and it seems when it's not a joke about Mac, everyone thinks it's OK.

eh.

Wish I had seen the 1st, I coulda used a chuckle.

Lesson learned for me.

eh. woulda been better if the lesson had been learned from you.

take things less seriously

I find it hard to believe people can be so ignorant in this day of age

Oh really? I find it hard to believe some people can be so arrogant and thin skinned in this day of age! How about that!? I guess anything is possible! And whats with this "You People" crap! Posts like that are far more annoying than anything else. You need to get over yourself.
You are not the only person that reads these posts. You are not the center of the universe!

Zoomba...just because some people have no sense of humor you should NOT re-write articles. There was absolutely nothing wrong with what you wrote the first time. Its just not right that the many of the users here be denied your humor for the sake of a few that are so thin skinned. There are far more serious things happening in the world to be concerned about...your light hearted articles are welcome any time.

No wait!...maybe I should sue for damaging my sense of humor. And I suffer daily migraines now as well...and my back hurts too! Have you no shame Zoomba!

To be quite honest with you, Zoomba, I've always found your articles to be interesting and informative....regardless of whether there's a bit of tongue in cheek involved or not...

Sadly, I didn't get to read your original version, but I have no doubt that it was far from being offensive or inappropriate, and thus would hate to see you change writing style based on the narrow minded opinions of some who were either born without funny bones, due to a possible birth defect, or perhaps had them removed due to spoiling their enjoyment of being unhappy, too straight laced and humorless.

You no doubt will have noticed many of my replies to your posts (others too) contain much tongue in cheek.....why? Because life's too serious to be taken seriously, and if ya don't lighten up sometime yer gits grey n' wrinkly prematurely.....

I wholeheartedly agree with WebGizmos, don't change who or what you are to please anyone but yourself.....continue as you always have done, otherwise you're not being true to yourself.

Anyhow, Zoomba, I'll see ya later....I still got two cents ta spend so I'm off ta find another conspiracy theory, gov't coverup.....OS sh!t fight.
