Still, for them to state it as a current fact could get them into a lot of trouble.

By the way, if anyone has a 20 second load time for SD, remove everything and follow the above sequence. For some reason, the 20 second load is caused by SD thinking you have a G4 and tries to load stuff that isn't there. With a proper load, SD should take 2-5 seconds from start to music.

I built out the skin for Aptera and I don't know if they are still using it (and StreetDeck), but I am -Love it!

Also, if you pause the video on the Aptera home page, you can see StreetDeck with the skin. If they are not using it, they haven't changed their video.

Edit: and it is also in their pictures of the car as well.

Sorry, but no.

In my understanding, Aptera dropped SD a long time ago. I wonder if they got their money back?

Uh, yeah, a picture dated 2006 means it's two years old. Read the news article - it's from SEMA 2006 - it's not a live picture, it really is from 11/3/2006.

I really wonder where this guy gets his information from?

Folks, I believe you'll find your answer here:

Click on the 11/9/06 link, the Aptera article is not there... click on the 11/18/06 link, it is there. Apparently it wasn't very eye-catching as people haven't seen it for a year and a half. I don't think I've ever been to Streetdeck.com before today, so I have no idea.

Here is SD in its early days.

DigitalWheelz is/was Chucks company so this makes sense.

Is this fix for when SD is loaded in the start-up folder, or doesn't matter. Just simply when you start SD from windows.

It shouldn't matter it applies to whenever SD it opened.

LOLOLOLOL - I wonder if they're going to censor me again.

And I had a valid point to make... which they're not happy about because it would mean no money for them.

I'm okay with mp3car.com making money... they're a business... but they also need to learn how to issue a proper press release. That last statement was pathetic.. textbook pathetic. have a little respect for people who have been waiting patiently for months now.

MP3CAR.COM+SD=FAIL

pamunoz,

You last post was deleted NOT censored because you were asking someone to hack SD. If you had bothered to read the forum rules, you would know that this is unacceptable, no matter what the software is.

I will draw you attention to:

B. Unacceptable Forum Behavior

5. Illegal activities
Mp3car.com will not tolerate any use of the forums to facilitate any illegal activities. Links to websites that share illegal software, music, movies, or other data are not permitted. Links to private FTP sites with illegal content are also not permitted. Discussions on how to circumvent software registration & activation, workarounds for software copy-protection, hardware hacks to bypass safety features and other discussions of obviously illegal activity will not be permitted.


Asking for someone to hack SD for you is NOT a valid point.
