From technology to politics to video games; these are the random thoughts of a geek with too much time on his hands
Ranting and raving...
Published on July 7, 2008 By Zoomba In WinCustomize News
Today's show is just ID and myself.  In episode 12 we talk largely about the loss of SkinArtistry and the (&%@ hackers who ruined a great site.  We get probably 5 or 6 min of ranting out of that.  The second half of the show we talk about what we look for when picking skins to feature on the front page.  Everything from proper previews, to original and enticing designs.  If you've ever wondered what goes through our minds when we pick a skin, then you definitely want to give this week's show a listen.

WARNING: There is some explicit language in our hacker rant segment.  If you're easily offended fast forward to the 6min mark of the episode.

I thought the language was pretty mild considering the subject.Tom and crew are some of my favorite people in the whole skinning community.I used to be one of them...but kept getting sick and homeless and wasnt contributing anything to the running of the site.Stll saddens me to see it go. (  And a big yes to the importance of a good preview.I'm as guilty as anyone...you work and slave away for weeks sometimes to skimp out at the end because you just want to get the dang thing uploaded.

Are folks interested in a semi-regular rant as part of the show?

Yes - with of course the whys and why nots - sort of like do's and don'ts....
