Freeware Appreciation Page

Freeware I love and who´s creators I think are therefore cool

Oxygenator
SysTrayPlayer
SkinMem
BeatNik
Ashampoo Media Player+
CDrun
eFX
EzPop
eNotes
Zoomer
ColorPad
IrfanView (not skinnable but it´s fantastic! )
QX
kewlpÄd

and my all time favourite - Sonique

That´s a start :sb

Whoa - were do i start?

All of em!

Goetz´s file splitter
Fav-to-HTML
JpegConverter

and EditPad Classic

While none of these are skinnable they are all great survival tools for those places where the sysadmin is a maniac.

For me ControlBar has been the most useful skinnable app. (that sysadmin killed all of the toolbars...not just the quicklaunch).

OH! and don´t let me forget FrontPage Express.

SkinMem & BeatNik, 2 of my favorites in your list.......... I enjoy skinning EzPop & kewlpÄd, but don´t use them as much........
But my all_time personal favorite would have to be QuickChanger......a most excellant wallpaper changer, dudes (and dudettes)

Freeware apps I just couldn´t do without:

eFX
Litestep
Skinmem (Thanks, gRAVE!)

KewlpÄd, colorpad, Cursearch! and Panekiller is the one I use the most and I actually did thank them at one time. But in general I use too much freebies for me to list them all here.

I must say that the most frequently used freeware on my box is LiteStep. However, you are correct Jason, we don´t get a chance to actually thank the creators and Dev teams. I am also talking about module creators that I never get the chance to thank and there are just way to many to mention. As a matter of fact, along with LiteStep core modules.. I use more LS freeware modules then all other skinning apps put together.
LS is self contained.. when I am running my ´larger´ themes, the only non LS skinning app I use is WB (EFX) because LS comes with modules that just about cover any task. There is even an ICQ plug for LS.. hehe. However, I do get to use, test and skin other freeware. 8)

And most frequently used non LS freeware app on my desktop is... ICQ+
;P

I thank them all the time...........

Here are some G R E A T links to check out!

Media Horizon Freeware URL [LINK]

More Games URL [LINK]

Totally Freeware....You name it they got it [LINK]

Well,. the problem with winsite is that it is unmoderated, so anyone can submit to it,... for example: It has Babya downloads... :| I go to skinnables.org for most of my software needs (although i dont need much..).

LiteSTEP [of course]
Sysmetrix [naturally]

To name but two...

Q-notes.
XXCalculator.
Winamp.
Yahoo mess.
EZpop.

winLame
Sonique/sonique2
Trillian(although i recently moved to pro and love it)

Great reminder Scarebear! Freeware plays a big part in the skinning world and we really should thank the authors. If it is freeware I am thankful for it, even if I don´t use it! LiteStep and Winamp2 would be my two favorites. PK and Pogz make great freeware apps too!
So I would like to say THANK YOU PK and THANK YOU pogrelz!

Pocketblinds (well it´s free right now!) hehe
