Back Again

Journal Entry: Sat Jan 19, 2008, 2:24 AM
Hello All

If anyone is still keeping track of my nonexistant existance (that made no sense) than this message is for you. You have been warned.

My life started sucking tremendously about seven months ago and I had absolutely no time or energy to keep up with the skins and themes and whatnots so I stopped suddenly halting all progress on everything. Of course, over the past few months Firefox 3 has been developing nicely and more people (shockingly) started using Windows Vista. This is relevant to my work for the following reasons:

1. I mostly skin Firefox. I don't use Firefox anymore which makes things awkward. Yeah.

2. Windows Vista is lovely. Really it is. It also has NO skinning or customization capabilities. Well, you can change the color of your Aero if you have it. Whoopie!

So anyway, the whole point of all of this is to say that I'm intending to do some work on some new projects here and there. Not as much as I used to because I work and have school and a completely overwhelming social life that unfortunately takes precedence over anything remotely technological but I am still aiming to devote some free time to some stuff. I'm not going to say what I'm doing because I may not finish but I figured I'd give a small update for whoever is interested. Oh, and none of my previous projects will be updated. Ever. Sorry, it's just that it takes too much time and I'd rather move on to something better. That does NOT mean I won't create "newer" versions...but it's nothing guaranteed. Cool?

I'm glad everything is kosher. Have a great day.

.

Hi SD, many thanks for your FF and TB Tango skins. They are my default on XP and Ubuntu. Just one thing I see with the TB skin in Ubuntu - for icons with drop-down menus, it seems to suffer from the old issue of oversizing the icons. If you recall, your gnome FF theme had the same issue in Linux but not in XP, which you subsequently fixed. (Indeed, many FF themes suffer from the same issue in Linux). I note that your screenshot of the theme doesn't show this. I can send a screenshot of TB in Ubuntu if it's of any help.

Cheers

Your Tango skins for Fx and Tb are simply awesome :#1: and you Tango styled avatar is cool too.

Well deserved, my good sir!

Hi there - just downloaded your Gnome Firefox skin again - for my new Feisty installation. Still my fave FF skin - many thanks for it.

On youtube is saw something like a commercial for PS3 and i guess (everyone does so) that they used scenes out of RuC 5. So i am hoping.

Heh, I do really hope Insomniac will continue the series. The games are just too friggin awesome!

Heh, thanks for reading the journal. I actually have no idea if anyone reads the thing. I just assume (which one should never do :P) that it's ignored. I stand very much corrected!

I have always respected and admired Mattahan and his work and wouldn't mind toying with his icons. They are, however, licensed differently and require permissions for use and distribution. As I always say, we'll see what happens :)

Thanks very much for the compliments!

Just 'cause you said nobody ever reads your journal - I did. Tried all the themes for FF 2.0, not really my style but I have to say they are very complete and I found no glitches or bugs.

If you do a set with Mattahan's Buuf icons i would be interested in seeing it. He's done several hundred icons in the set and based on your skill as shown on Tango and Tangerine you could do great things with them.

I don't use Thunderbird so I'm not sure. We'll see ;)
~tigrca:icontigrca: Nov 18, 2006, 10:12:15 AM
Awesome work! Do you plan on skinning Thunderbird too?
