I think we're all basically adults here, right? But just in case, let me start by saying that this thread is NOT about slamming anyone. It's just some advice...from the heart...for anyone...and someone.

I believe that when folks post in the forums, whether noobs or veterans, the majority of the community responds in a positive manner. Yeah, we have a terrible habit of going off topic. Hard not to with so many overactive, overly creative, and talented folks around, However, in general,...

Pardon what is prbably a stupid question or two, but:

My son would like Assasin's Creed.

I was going to purchase it through Impulse (since I already have an account), but he has expressed interest in the PS3 version. 

Can he play the Impulse version through his PS3?

And

Which version would you all recommend, PS3 or PC?

He runs WOW, STOL, and the DC Online BEta just fine on his PC.

It hadda happen sooner or later. My step-son is now 12 and interested in RPG's. We've kept him away from a host of them. Our biggest fears are

Weirdo's trying to chat him up in the gamePredators trying to chat him up in the gameLanguageSexual overtones (We had major issues with 'Fable' when we discovered he was playing that outside of our house. I just don't know that 10 yo is the right age to have a child play a game where he can advance his character by having sexual relations of the hetros...

I'm having a couple of issues with Zubaz the new forum.

Unable to post pics: Now this is a HUGE issue for me. I wouldn't doubt if Zubaz was behind this. Blocking my ability to post my Zubaz and skinhit pics is just wrong.  It's abuse of power. I won't stand for it! I know people!!! And when they are released from observation there's gonna be trouble.I have to log on separately for the forums, even if I am logged onto the rest of the site. I am sure this is more Zubaz tom-foolery in an ef...

So...I have been thinking...for a long, long time..about venturing into the RPG area. I have looked at a few on-line and even tried one that FF had an add-on for. (Some kind of Space RPG).

 I'm looking for something that I won't lose my ass in, right off the bat. And preferably, something through Stardock.

 So, for a novice in on-line RPG, what would be the recommendations?

I've made 2 DX Themes. I want to thank all who helped, critiqued, and downloaded. I have a question for those who use the Themes. Any Themes.

What do you look for? I know these answers will be widely varied, but I am curious. What features (weather, DXPlayer, etc) and anything else you want to throw in.

What links and/or shortcuts?

Finally, the one thing I am confused on is the whole 'tool tip' thing. A few people have said they don't like it, especailly if they want to change the l...

In case you missed my Screenshot, http://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SkinID=16615&LibID=13&comments=1 I have been working on my first DesktopX Theme and I am finally ready to be brutally assaulted and flayed by anyone who is willing to test it for me. I only need a few. Leave a message here on where I can send it.

It's larger than most (4.5MB)..lots of graphics and there are some sound clips. I realize not all email accounts will move files over a certain size and that this may be a...

I'll try to make sense with this if I can.
I'm making a DesktopX Theme. I have a widget/group with a button on it. What I want the button to do is this...
Open a smaller version of the group/widget
and CLOSE the larger one.
All I have been able to do is toggle the smaller one to open and close, without being able to close the larger one with that single button click.

I don't want to open the smaller version and then have to close the larger, I want it to work with just the one click....

I have looked through the forums and tutorials I could find and can't find what I need. I want to make a widget that connects to a specific radio station and can not find how to do the script for the link, or anything on making a radio widget. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction?

When I am making Icons I start in either 296 or 512...I find it easier to see what I am doing. When I go to 'resize' them..or even just make the pgn's smaller...a lot of the time I find they are suddenly too dark to see the detail or even get a good idea of what it is (Printers, Camera's, etc...Folders and files are usually okay).

Does/has anyone else run into this? Is there a trick to fix this, like the number of pixels I have it set for when I begin in Photoshop or something like that? ...

I am a newbie and haven't gotten into scripts yet. I am working on an object/widget (my second) and have ended up going in circles trying to figure out the 'Action" settings.

I have gotten my object to do what I want, but not the way I want it to. I can set the following actions with no problem...mouseaway, mouseover, mouse down and up...and default. Even manged to figure out the Command exe.

My object consists of animation files and sound files. All my images are good, same size and all....

I recently created my first DesktopX Object (link below)

Link

Now I would like to animate it. I have done all the work as far as Photoshop and Imageready. I have saved it in several formats (Gif, png, animated layers in both..) but I can't figure out how to save it in DesktopX as an animated object.

Some facts;
a. I have 57 files for the animation. (too much?)
b. It's not a simple 'resizing' animation. I have 'Fella' blinking and a couple other things.
c.I have read over the...
