GAIA.CUSTOMIZE.ORG online

It's great to see members here contribute to such a wonderful cause.I think this will reach alot of people and gain understanding of how precious our planet and our natural resources are.

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeebirth!

This is such an amazing release. Congratulations to you guys, I can't wait to download. :D I hope in the near future that Customize will do this again, it reunites all and brings customize.org some of the best works. Damn you guys are good. I think we should digg it to expose the works that you guys created. Wouldn't you say? ;)

I'd like to say a big well done to everyone who was involved. It's great to see such a wide-ranging and expansive project come to fruition like this.

You all deserve a collective pat on the back.

it's nice and all but I hate the pretense that this is a "community" release. It's basically imrik and a few select individuals...

Yeah, we should definitely digg gaia.customize.org, but there are still some Gaia submissions of the community left.
Can't wait to see GaiaCusto on the digg homepage on first place :D

The suite looks phenomenal. Great work! Hats off to everyone involved

Great to see it up now! Expect the latest part of the core releases on thursday (sorry unforeseen circumstances), here's a preview http://home.tiscali.nl/pepijnnuland/GAIA%2007.png, all Litestep =)

please, digg it

thats amazing pep.

Thank you very much everybody! First of all i would like to thank all of your participiants! It was and still is great to work with you. Secondly i would like to thank Lamp and Revird for the great support from Customize!

Maybe we´re going to make this a year by year project..

NOW GO AND TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT IT :D

I really hope you enjoy the release

as amazing as the whole thing looks, i agree with stoptheinsanity. :-\ why should you need an invite to a private group when its a "community project"?

All right. I never did a project like this before. And so we all had to find a way how to deal with it.

And we decided to do it the way we did. Having a specific release date and nobody who submits something unfinished or in the early state isn´t easy to control in a group of ca. 50 people who were invited to the private group. And by the way: Everybody was able to participate in this. As you can read on the subdomain we just upped the core release. And as you see many additions come by time. Samurize configs, handy themes, cursors and a lot other things. This is a community project, i think. And i am really happy that so many people add something to it. That was my thought behind the whole thing.

So what´s your point about this being no community project?

Now, we are waiting for Litestep! :)

the litestep will be great indeed ... and there's bound to be many more additions over the next week or two as people finish up extra bits and pieces

All right! Just dugg it. And I've been telling all my friends about it. Since it's official I haven't linked them, but I shall now!

Also maybe there ought to be a thread for digging it? Dunno how many people will see it in here. We want it to make the front page.

This is a very beautiful suite - could have benefited from a bit more time in some instances and I agree the whole development process could have been a bit more public, but that being said its very nice to have your style back in the galleries. Congrats =)

This is such a fantastic work, done by a first-class team and inspired in the preservation of nature! Congratulations for all artists involved in this!

The quality and quantity of the graphics and design you have putted into this is wonderful. My personal favorite is the website. Congratulations and thank you Imrik.

Thanks for the input about the 'community' aspect of this release. We made it a private group since not everyone was comfortable releasing their works in progress in full view. However, anyone who wanted participate could join (which I hope was clear), and over 50 people did.

As Imrik said, this was just the core release. With so many people wanting to participate, we would've had to make the release date well into August if we wanted everyone to have enough time. This rolling release was the best solution we could come up with.

I hope the entire community will continue contributing and make GAIA the most complete suite ever made! Its certainly going amazing so far!

This just proves why Customize is the #1 when it comes to delivering the latest and fresh styles along with top knotch graphics.

I applaud Imrik and the other participants awareness, their initiative and their creativity.

So you're hoping to make us save energy by turning off computers when not in use. But these great wallpapers are making me stare at the monitor for extended periods of time, when I should've shut it off long ago! :P
