well said to here this. your themes were indeed the best i ever used. however everyone has there time and chance at everything and i guess you finished yours. you gonna be missed but your themes will stick around and remind who made em ... hehe take care man pz

He stopped for a good reason. He stopped because he is just tired of theming. It's the same reason I stopped skinning. I hope somebody with a new style steps up to the world of theming. And maybe now people will stop trying to copy bant's style.

exactly. something like a new era because eversince reluna came out its been like luna everywere. maybe now we can get some more life into themeing

It's the internet; he can do whatever he wants to do. Leave him alone.
who cares if its "the internet" ?

I think his idea of removing every single download link to his theme is childish and pointless. Even though he's a great skinner/themer I definately don't see him the same way now (not that he cares, but that only adds to his bad attitude).

Saying that its just the internet is just an excuse. You can't be two different person in real life and on here. Its just a reflection... I'm sure he has that attitude in RL too. You can portray a different image, but deep down inside you, you act and react the same way.

Don't get me wrong, I totally support his decision to leave the skinning community (plus the fact that he can do whatever he wants). I just think its childish and lame to remove every single download link along the way.

A chick named Heylove left a comment on one of his journal entries @ devart (along with several other people). Its pretty direct, but straight to the point.

I don't get it. if you wish to not be apart of the customization community that's fine then stop but don't take it out on the people who appreciate and admire the work you have done. what harm is it going to do by leaving the work you have done there for people to enjoy? it's almost like a sick cry for attention, like you want people to kiss your ass and tell you how good you where and how much there going to miss you. quite frankly, i personally think that makes you a piece of ****.

Frogboy of Stardock also left a nice big comment at the bottom...

    • This seems backwards. You should have to explicitly authorize files for outside use. It shouldn't be the default.
    • Wow you are right, I never even noticed this until you said it! (870E Aorus Master) Before testing this card I had a TP-Link tx401 10GbE PCIe card in that slot (now using XikeStor 310 Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter).
    • Lack of 5.1 makes this a no sale. What I really wish creative would make would be a USB version that supports 5.1 analog audio for speakers, can switch to headphone mode, and matches the specs of their top tier cards. The current X870E AMD motherboards dont have a great option for adding a PCIE x1 card without cutting down pcie lanes to the graphics card.
    • The Microsoft Office feature that time forgot by Usama Jawad I have been actively using Microsoft Word for the past couple of decades in academic, professional, and personal capacities. Although I used it through the perpetual version of Office apps at the start, I have been an active subscriber of Microsoft 365 Family subscription for over five years now. This means that my Word installation is regularly updated with new features, some of which I don't really like, but that's beside the point. As new features get continuously added, old ones that used to be a staple of Word have started to take a backseat. While I was reminiscing over my Windows experiences from my childhood today, I suddenly remember one such capability that I heavily used in my younger years but have not really touched in over a decade, and haven't seen in documents created by others either. That feature is WordArt. Just to clarify, WordArt is not a Microsoft product specific to Word, and is included in other Office apps like PowerPoint and Excel too. However, Microsoft Word is the app that I used Word Art in heavily, while making assignments or other deliverables for school. If you're unaware, WordArt offers a collection of styling techniques for text, introducing 3D effects like shadows and reflections in the text. It used to be one of the coolest things ever when I was at school and me and my classmates would often compete to ensure that our assignment's title in WordArt was truly the best and stood out above the rest. See some examples of WordArt, still present in the latest versions of Word below: Although WordArt is undeniably cool, it has taken a bit of a backseat, and has been relegated from the Home tab to the Insert toolbar, along with a bunch of other utilities, making it very easy to miss. This isn't exactly surprising because WordArt doesn't really have a place in academic and professional documents anymore, and while I have seen some creatives using it while developing promo material, even that sector has gravitated more towards dedicated graphic designing tools in the past years. For the vast majority of us, WordArt doesn't really exist, and that's alright. At least, it's still an option that can allow us to reminisce our childhood or even make some quick text stylization, if we really need it. Perhaps its usage has waned over time or the novelty has worn off, but I haven't even seen children use it in their academic assignments anymore. In fact, many don't even know that it exists. Maybe that's the fate of every beloved feature. What once felt cutting edge eventually becomes a relic, quietly tucked away as tastes, trends, and technology move on. WordArt may no longer dominate school assignments or decorate the covers of classroom projects, but for those of us who grew up with it, it remains a colorful reminder of a time when making text glow, bend, and cast giant shadows felt like the height of creativity. Hidden behind a few clicks in modern Word, it still survives not as a productivity tool, but as a small piece of computing nostalgia that refuses to disappear.
