Hard To Stay Motivated...

July 18, 2004 1:15:35 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
when you're making a skin and you don't see half the features in it yourself... Pah... That and doing any kind of graphic work on a laptop just plain sucks, O' how pray for a new computer but other more pressing expenses take priority. And I want a tangerine, but tangerines aren't in season... Just had to vent a bit.

True that. I do it all on my Dell multimedia Powerhouse, and that should explain why I don't update things very often. I have to perfectly line stuff up, it can take me hours for one button.

It takes me about a half hour to open and saze a PSD file over 1 meg. And O! the horror of trying to zoom out, my little tinie-tiny processor fan all kicks in high gear and I hear my laptop cry...

It's not really those problems for me because mine's brand new, but I have to use that little mouse that's built into the middle of the keyboard and i like 3 millimeters in circumference, so it's really hard to not pass the mark you're aiming for. I'm going to get a Lgitech wirless mouse and keyboard for it soon though. But I do have to say that the subwoofer in that thing is a beast.

Mine makes a funny ticking when the fan isn't spinning, and when the fan is spinning it makes a whistling noise. And it only has a 1024 resolution and a whole 190meg of RAM... Did I mention trying to create graphic art on a brick would be more effective?

Very much so. I've got a 1280 by 800 res, and I love 'Labby' I really do, but I can't use the normal in your face themes on it. I have to go more minimal and graphically simple or the plasma monitor will get mad at me.
