Xwd - The Off-topic Thread

[Deavy]

Deavy, so it's what, embedding flash? Semicolon S.

With my «exelent» english better to give you few links than explain details

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Inma...ash_Replacement

http://www.mikeindustries.com/blog/sifr/

Look at the article name at the last link — it using custom font via sIFR technology.

and maybe will be better to stop flame on this thread and back to discussion subject.

By Panta: moved to this thread as this topic has nothing to do with the main thread.

Just want to celebrate it by creating a new Thread and saying thank you, Aqua-Forum!

XWindows-Dock Subforum was an excellent step

By Panta: this is the real first post, and atreiu is this thread's starter.

XWD deserves this man

Cool ...this means that XWD is a mature app who deserve a sub forum

[Panta]

...and now we are going to keep it organized!! Yay!

@all: I urge you all to read the Announcement thread at the top of the forum. There are some news over there.

yep, it's cool, but I don't like when my dock compares with M*c os because with next realese it'll be another dock at all

Ohhh... Amazing *0*, I want to see it ñ_ñ. if you dont like it change it. is your program but a dock is a dock everywhere. I compared with Job´s Kids dock because the concept appears on Nextstep but actual clones are based on OSX version

Trying to improve that Wiki page but too hard for me because I can;t upload pictures for logo and screenshot.

Deserve a logo and a screenshot on that wiki page...what do u think?

I guess it was more for organisation than because it is a mature app. But still, it's a great news. I don't know if it's possible, but I have too much free time for a week. I would like to help to organise everything,

You know it's gonna be messy with newcomers posting in the wrong places ¬_¬

But with the subforum and new threads, this should clear things up substantially.

Hey, Why my replay was moved?? ¬¬. Its unfair U_U

I don't think they will do it. Dell has made one too, large amount of money will be in play if they sue someone.

By Panta: moved. Doesn't belong to the main thread...

Woahh very nice!

[nodeffect]

Glad to see a new sub-forum for Xwindows. For now, I'm still using rocketdock since so many people facing bugs with Xwindows. Hope bobah will improve it and fix all the bugs. All the best Bobah, will support you as always. Can I design a logo for Xwindows? or that logo that Bobah's using is already final?

By Panta: moved because it's off-topic.

[Panta]

@magnus87: already explained.

So... Is this thread for where most of the junk in the original XWD thread is gonna go from now on? I'm getting that impression... If so, then what will the original xwd thread be for (besides new version releases)?

that's exactly what I'm asking myself :confused:

[Panta]

You both realize you're asking a rhetorical question, no?

[AndrewYY]

I believe a rhetorical question is a question asked to state a point... I don't have a point; I'm seriously asking what the main thread is for now

[Panta]

New version releases and updates (bobah), relevant information sharing (all of us) and the like, but mainly no crap posting; the aim is finding relevant things easily and as fast as possible! As we all know this is totally impossible in the current main thread.

Of course we're still experimenting things, trying to find the right balance between organization and freedom, so almost everything is subject to refinement. Let's see what happens in the forthcoming weeks...

Well I didn't think Andrews post was "crap", actually it was quite interesting to know that he did these Wikipedia entries. It's certainly not "off topic", imho.

I think a new thread is fine for such news like Andrews, but remember: this wasn't possible at the time he posted it, so please don't overreact, guys. We all have to fit in with this new situation Splitting the main thread is a good idea, but finding the right place for things might be hard from time to time.

@Panta: I think in difficult cases like this one, where it is not clear where to move a post, you could PM the author before moving the post. This would be more polite, imho. You don't have to do this in obvious cases, of course. I would be pissed too, if I found my post, which i thought would be interesting, suddenly in the Off-Topic-Thread

@Andrew, if I where you i would start a new thread, with the Topic "XWindows Dock on Wikipedia" or something. I would like that You could collect the Links to different language Wikis, when there are other people writing articles or share Info with other authors. (BTW: Is XWD really considered to be Creative Commons?)
