Boozker's Windows Tweaks Blog For a simple blog how is it?

Recommended Posts

Well people kept asking me how they can mod their computers GUI and UI like mine. After awhile of doing one on one over AIM i got tired of it. I deiced i could make a blog, write the tutorial, put screen shots, and more quicker then a one on one session all the time. Because of that i made:

I will add a new tutorial EVERY day until i completely run out. I need tutorial testers. I would be happy to add your myspace/website to mine if you test out or submit tutorials or software that tweaks your computer. My site DOES NOT HAVE PROGRAMS WITH SPYWARE, ADWARE, TROJANS, OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. So do not submit anything with that or pre-packaged programs along with it.

 

I want to know what else it needs. I don't want it to be to hectic of a site considering they will need concentration for doing the tutorials and don't want the bothered by unnecessary graphics and designs. I want to add some things though. I just don't know what. I added a tracker and favorite sites list, but i mean something more interactive.

 

Thanks

Thank you This is exactly what I've been looking for for months now - no need to continue looking into buying a copy of Window Blinds. It's great and useful and I'm downloading the files now to begin customising. I'll post what I find goes well and wrong.

 

At the moment, it does look worth it.

wow! I didn't think people would like it that much! I am going to be getting the basic style of it and moving it to trap. I still need to customize the footer. It's still the default from blogger. For sure though I will keep the simplicity since that is what it looks like you guys like. Please tell me how it goes everyone!If there is a tweak you want email me at boozker@gmail.com or PM me.

I actually have about 9 tweaks that i have ready for the site. I think I will keep blogger, but then sometimes i want to get rid of it. For now i will be adding a new tweak today. This tweak will involve making a non-responsive window shut down so you don't need to push ctrl + alt + del over and over again. It will just shut off, or should.

I tried out your two tutorials, and they seem to work fine, and gives windows a nicer GUI. However I will most likely uninstall is as soon as I start running resource heavy applications (I really only run text editors and browsers at present), due to having to activate the themes service to make it work. The themes service if I recall correctly requires about 12MB of RAM, which is quite a lot on a system with only 256Mb of RAM running windows XP.Good work on the tutorials anyway, keep them coming :)

I'm glad to hear that. I work hard on that site. I just thought i would get much more constructive criticism. Have about 8 more saved up. Always looking for more. Hopefully by the time the 8 are up i have found more!
