Now I (Andymon):
@Faithful:
(If "ThemeSkins" are actually just regular themes then why are they packaged together and called "ThemeSkins"?)
Read my post "What is Gathering?"
And I made this theme and if i say it's not possible you should really believe me, especially when you didn't get the theme running and have it for less then 4 days.
(and found many bugs (which I tried to work around))
It would have been much more intelligent to post these "Bugs" here, than your other opinions. Maybe you found really a bug and not only a problems which is caused by module incompatibilities with Your system. In this case we could have fixed it.
(it would have been more thoroughly checked)
We (Developers and Beta Testers) had no bugs (NONE). But, if some people (you) have problems with certain well developed and long as bugfree known modules that's not the fault of the theme. If, for example, LSSlider don't work on your system, how can WE know this and make a bugfix before YOU have this problem. Next is, how should I fix it if I don't get this error and 90% of the other users also. I think that very few people have such module incompatibilities, but it can obviously happen. We have used only well developed and long as bugfree known modules (due to our knowledge).
(I don't like the way you're reacting to certain comments)
I react very indulgent to certain posts especially this one.
(Both "fixing descriptions" have the same effect, except his "weak-minded" one is cleaner and nicer than yours.)
If you think it's "cleaner and nicer" for Users to search through 94 files in 10 folders like Inhaler suggests, than editing one line in one given file with a 1 time occuring MessageBox. I don't know what to say :|
Next is, again, how can I fix a problem (which i cannot reproduce), which occours only on a few systems. And how much themers have any beta tester at all, except themself to test their themes? Does anybody complain about..- these?
(excessive use of exclamation marks and insulting people)
Is it forbidden to use exclamation marks?? (Guess what. No exclamation marks till here) And I don't insult people more, than you do. In fact, is it an insult to tell a hint weak-minded if it tells Users to search through all config files to search for some lines. If inhaler had posted the files which had to be edited, noone would call the hint weak-minded. Next is, it wasn't his first "absent-minded" post.
(don't quite grasp the english language yourself)
Well, I'm native german and you're for sure a english teacher, therefore I won't reach your abilities. But you're the first who don't understand my posts. Maybe a reason for this post btw.
