Glowstick Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 Damn! What's it with all these damn faked videos and screenshots popping up everywhere lately. It hasn't been ever that worse before, it started with all that .NET **** like Win.NET and Office.NET. Are people bored or what? Maybe they should get a job instead of faking stuff. :dead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiris Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 Ah settle down Tom its not that bad, without these fakes we wouldnt have those Longhorn themes, they quite good themes. And therell probably be stuff made off this last one, people just like being creative and causing a stir on the net, and why not whoever created that has come up with a pretty cool looking idea for windows, I dont think its useful really but the window splitting looks pretty cool. Anyway people are just bored because they need some Beta Stuff from MS to keep em occupied. Unfortunely theres a long way to go before the next major MS beta.

Glowstick Posted April 28, 2002 Author Share Posted April 28, 2002 Well, then the fakers should make themes instead of pushing the people to believe the crap. My 2 cent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neowin_hipster Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 I guess it would be fun to see others think your stuff for real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deryck Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 Yes, but I worry on how much people spend their time on creating fake screenshots. I soppose that the visual styles that come out of this are quite cool. In addition, I soppose that it exercises their skills as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesseract Posted April 29, 2002 Share Posted April 29, 2002 I am ready for the Longhorn beta to begin. Until then, go ahead and make the fakes. And Tom, if you want to, you could make a fake screenie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
