    Ok, it's been almost a month since the competition closed, but with the forum move and just being generally busy I haven't had the time to go through the entries and setup a poll.

    So here are the final entries for the Needles texture comp, simply vote for the best one.

    Keep in mind, this is what we are aiming for:

    These are the entries:

    Microman's Entry

    Microman win's the Jennifer texture as he was the only one who bothered to make a texture for her. :lol:

    Doctor Emmett L. Brown decided to withdraw from the comp, as such his entry is not available to put a vote against.

    Well, I guess that's everything. Get voting people. Closing date for votes is Sunday 23 November, 10:00PM GMT (London).

    No it was from their website i believe....Brico i think it was?

    That's not where VTP comes from, however it was a module included with VTP8.

    I myself wouldn't download VTP from anywhere other than JCXP.net

    New version works just fine for me, though I only have the basic settings on, glass windows and the other flashy stuff just eats away at your system resources.

    Vista Transformation Pack 9 is finally out, I've been waiting for this for months, finally it has service pack 3 compatability, yay.

    Taken from JCXP.net

    Well, it's supposed to be released in late June 2008. However, due to various circumstances, I'm still amazed myself that it could have gone this far to nearly a year gap release from 8.0 to 9.0. However, I didn't sit idlely during these months doing nothing for sure

    Vista Transformation Pack 9.0 Keynotes:

    New 3rd-party applications

    ViSplore - Vista Glass explorer simulator

    Vista Drive Icon - adding free space percentage in your drive icon like Vista explorer

    Improved 3rd-party applications

    ViStart - Files indexing for documents search, improved reliability and compatibilities

    ViOrb - Improved graphic and reliability (C++ re-written)

    TrueTransparency - Improved reliability with improved AeroStyle's glass border

    WinFlip - Improved stability and reliablity

    New functionalities

    Setup personization - Allow customizing Vista experiences upon installation without access to Welcome Center

    Windows XP Service Pack 3 compatibilities - Now you can enjoy Vista themes after installation with Windows XP Service Pack 3

    x64 compatibilities - More secured x64 installation without getting hurt by incompatibilities

    The emoticons were being spammed in the shoutbox, and the bb code was being used to bypass the word filter, hence the removal of both features in the shoutbox, it's as simple as that really. It's a shame a small minority have to spoil it for the rest of you.
