If WindowBlinds had a Hall of Fame...?

August 9, 2002 6:42:21 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
What five skins/artists would be the first inductees. IYHO, what would qualify as Hall of Fame Material(don't even think about using ratings) I'm trying to do a personal survey, so any input would be helpful and greatly appreciated. Thankyou

I will start with my five:

adni18(A)
Sputnik(S)
Dangeruss(A)
Shawn Murdock(A)
WBManiaIV(S)

Okay, I admit, I don't really pay attention to all the skins and whoever makes them.

By the way, what's with the A's and S's?

I think A = Artist and S = Skin, but I could be wrong. You know what you get when you have one artist and two Skins don't you?

What would be the criteria? Most downloads? Stardock participants only? Most skins or uploads? Who's the most popular? This would be a hard choice. I like one skin from him, one from her, and so forth and so forth. I'am not sure if I would like to get into this.

How about using Paxx's skins evaluation grid http://pax.gslcom.com/ratings/ as a starting point?
I think it is pretty fair and just.

I think the craeonics thing only works if you actually enter text behind it:
doesn't work: /me
does work: craeonics is listening to: Van Katoen - Alweer een Dag

Using download totals? Maybe. Electing a panel?

Maybe a Hall of Fame for the whole skinning community in general? Inductees could be any type of skin, theme, or wallpaper. Artist, Programs, Websites. People whom have put thier blood, sweat, and tears into making the skinning world possible, and those who keep it alive. Any one who has been/is integral to skinning?

Just some thoughts folks, I think it would be a great idea.

I think it could open up a can of worms. To many egos.

IMHO people with "bad ego trips" shouldn't be included. There has to be a way it can be done with minimal"ego".

Doreen: Dangeruss and treetog have earned their keep don't you think?

oh yeah I can think of a few that would fit nicely into the Hall of Fame...
actually this had been mentioned in the past jokingly but maybe someday there will be a static section on a skin site that will actually keep something like this running?
(anything is possible in skin city) hehe

OK, how about your favorite skinners/artists, that have left and then come back.

(at least I have a slim chance of making that list)

Holy Vanity Miror!!!

A Hall of Fame for Skinners would be a tough call. I think it would take a few more years to even try something like that. To be a hall of fame'er, you have to have staying power. Not just be a skinner or artist for a year or 2 but 5 or 6.

Then, it would take a least another 6 months to decide if they go in.

Does DesktopX get included in this??
