Howabout a version of the skin WITHOUT the damned nVidia logo for those of us who love the skin yet hate nVidia?

Hmmm... as much as I dislike nVidia and commercialism, I gotta agree with Jafo (even though I HATE TO)... His reply sums it up.

Soooo Doomgaze, as was said, yank the offending matter from a personal copy should you so desire. Sorry man.

How about an Radeon skin for use ATI lovers?

TechCat : You should actually read threads You are replying to. Your question is already answered, if You read carefully.
And if I were nVidia I would be a 'little' emberassed if Pixtudio would do a free ATI skin directly following this one (and they sure wouldn't get any assignment again in the near future). Something to think about...

To Pixtudio and nVidia - thank you for sharing this nice piece of work with us. I think i can speak for the vast majority of this community and say we are very grateful and i certainly appreciate the huge amount of work that must have gone into this skin. A big thanks to "treetog" at pixtudio for yet another great skin. You boys rock. I just thought i would put my ten cents worth in because when looking at some of the earlier comments it is pretty obvious that words of praise and thanks are not given as often as maybe they should and without people like you in this community would be a poorer place. Thanks again.

, whats wrong with nvidia?

While I own an nVidia card, my wife bought it for me so I had no choice. What some of us take issue with is that nVidia drivers for the last couple years leave a lot to be desired. There are other issues but let's leave it at that.

Yes, an ATI skin would be excellent for those who own them and those who wished we owned them!

Either way, Renato is one of the best skinners in existance and I have yet to see a skin he did that I didn't gaze upon in awe. He has always been someone I have looked up to.

And PJ... if I were you I wouldn't worry about Mark hitting you, I'd worry more about him getting his love beads around your neck.

Speaking from experience Rich?

Back to the topic at hand (kinda)
I have a Geforce Ti4600 and a Radeon 8500 in separate PC's.

The Geforce beats the 8500 hands down for games on a 1Ghz Duron against a 1.4Ghz Athlon XP. The 8500 beats the Geforce in WindowsFX but has a tendency to cause a BSOD for unknown and inexplicable reasons every once in a while. The ATI multimon support is less troublesome too.

I let each do what it is best at and am relatively happy. If I didn't have two PC's I might have more animosity towards nVidia though.

And yes I like the nVidia skin and the nVidia logo doesn't bother me.

Doomgaze, just use SkinStudio to remove the logos for your own PC. I myself made an Object Dock background & 2 menu skins that use the nvidia color scheme. Unfortunately as Treetog told me, he could not give me permission to post it since Pixtudio does not own the rights to the skin, nVidia does. So I use the skins myself but cannot share them and no one can modify them or use their graphics and post it here or any where without nVidia's permission. Hope that helps.

heh! this thread reminds me why I quit........rude, rude people.>

Pixtudio does wonderful work. I understand why they can't do an ATI theme even if ATI were to offer to pay them for one since nVIDIA might be upset about it. There are other great skinners at this site so it would be nice if another skinner could contact ATI and get permission or even get paid to make an ATI skin. I would also like to see an AMD Athlon XP skin for my favorite processor.

BoXXi: I really like your walls. I downloaded a few last night. Great work!

If you visit http://www.nvidia.com you will see that NVIDIA is spelled with all capital letters.

Rudeness is harmful to the community. It is especially offensive to be rude to someone like Adam, without whom many of these skins would not exist. BoXXi, please note that a vocal minority is still a minority. Don't let the loonies win!

Threatening violence to someone on a message board...what can I say? "It is past the infinite of thought."

I will add that other skins that require the permission of corporations, such as the good folks at NVIDIA and the recent Terminator 3 skin done with the permission of Warner Bros., are in the works. Or so I have heard.
