Thank you for taking the time to read my comment.

Seems to me she's trying to add value by including the wallpaper and some shitty icons.  It doesn't change the fact that she's making money off of someone elses work.

I read many things Dr just don't comment very often.

What the hell part of that didn't you understand?

Real classy.

Oh, and for your information, her description is in error.  It doesn't include the wallpaper or icons.

Well, it ain't flippin jealousy ID.  Not on this skin, not on any of her skins.  It's ok for people to comment about how excellent and creative a skin is, but if someone puts in a true opinion about how they don't feel it's master quality, it's automatically bad and destructive and blah, blah fucking blah.

I'm sick of the mod/admin cliques on here myself.

I'm not a classy guy.  I speak my mind, just the way I always have.

Oh, that makes it ok then.    It's not there because she forgot to include it.  Not because she didn't mean to.

I never understand why people will complain about a master skin not being good enough.  If you don't like the skin, then why do you care if it's free or not?  Obviously anyone who shells out the cash is happy with the skin, so good for them.  If you don't like it, why would you want it even if it's free?  Just let it be.  I personally don't like it, but who cares?  I won't buy it.  But I'm not going to bitch about it costing money because honestly I wouldn't be downloading it even if it was free.  I think it's obvious that she out alot of work into it, it's fully skinned from what we can see... so what is there that makes it "not good enough" to be a master skin?  Just because someone doesn't like it?

I don't like Pepsi.  Should I go to my local grocer and demand they stop charging for it because I don't like it?  No.  I just won't buy it.  But others will...

actually, if you don't like Pepsi, just buy it and give it to me. Pepsi is the nectar of the gods. i'll take all the pepsi you want to buy for me.

As I said, skin cliques around here are getting old and tired.  Constructive and negative comments are one thing, a coordinated attack against one person is another thing.  Nobody here has a problem with telling someone how they feel about a skin, it happens every single day.

The problem here is the clique that goes after people they don't like.  I know this as fact as I see the PM's sent to people.  I don't want to get involved in things like this, but I WILL defend any skinner that is being unfairly treated.

This is the same situation that happened years ago that drove many skinners away.  The solution was simple, and it appears it needs to happen again.

Great point! I don't understand why people won't have the common courtesy to give Vampothika some respect. She's one of the most creative skinners I've seen. If you don't like her work, don't buy it and move on. There's no sense in saying things that don't benefit Vampothika as a skinner. This is the wincustomize community.........I think we are supposed to SUPPORT one another.

And what PM's would those be ID.  I hope you aren't accusing me of anything here.  If you've got proof, show it.

How is telling a skinner that their work is subpar and showing how they are stealing other peoples work an attack?  It's ok to show plagarized work publicly and try to sell it but not to criticize it?

This makes me sad.

Constructive criticism is a good thing.  But should be done with the goal to assist.

Protecting your and each other's intelectual property rights should be done.  But privately.

Supporting skinning and skinners should be somethign we all try to do.  Because it helps us all.

I expect better from senior and long-time members of this site.

And that is a winning statement right there, even though it is directed at me.  I too expect better from senior and long-time members.
