Firefox 3 Release & Stardock Site Compatibility
Jul 30, 2008 12:59

Firefox 3.0 goes final and is scheduled for release on Tuesday, June 17th.

There are currently known incompatibilities between Firefox 3 and many of our sites and forums. For the most part, the sites function properly, but have formatting issues. A specific example are the login & password fields to log into these forums. In Firefox 3, instead of both being on the same line, they are stacked vertically.

We will be addressing these visual issues in time. Please do NOT post threads on the forums pointing out Firefox 3 site issues. They will be deleted. We are aware of the problems and will work as quickly as we can to resolve them.

Until posted otherwise, the only version of Firefox our sites support at the moment is Firefox 2.

I wonder if this will go up on the WinCustomize Wiki as well?
November 6, 2007 20:10:34
Yeah, why isn't this on the Wiki!!

After spending so much time getting the Wiki setup and filled out and Zoomba promoting the wiki, it kinda sucks to see all these articles only being put here and not on there.

Yes, they will be along when ready.

Put it on there

It's not my article....and I'm already in the process of adding a bunch of others. I just wish they would be added to the Wiki to begin with...that is what the project was for, wasn't it?

This it still the best place to announce and market products and tutorials.  The wiki can come later when the document is complete and ready.

I sympathize with Bebi. She's been working her butt off adding content to the wiki (original and migrating the work of others). I know that the best way to get the word out is to announce it directly to the audience (WinCustomize Users), but there is a slight lack of integration between the 2 WinCustomize sites.

If tptb could consider posting future articles/tutorials on the Wiki and then posting a short article and link about the tut here it would be greatly appreciated. (Just something to consider. ) The Wiki's got alot of potential; I'm just hoping it isn't forgotten.


We now return you to the original topic...

Wow...this will help alot when I get skin studio O.o
November 21, 2007 03:26:54
How does one make a skin with skin studio? I have worked on this for hours on end and I'm not got nowhere. Are all these skins made from skin studio or is there another program that these people use. I may just have to realize that i'm just stupid...HELP PLEASE!!!!

SkinStudio is the application that packages the graphics that you create.
What specifically are you having trouble with? (You might want to start a new thread with your specific question.  You will get better response that way.)

Where is the rest of your Tut?

Do you know where to find good tut's on Photoshop or ImageReady?

The SKS tutorial is currently being worked on, and the next chapter will be available just as soon as it's ready.
