Wow, that sucks, they are gone. He had a nice collection of them too. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a mirror anywhere. After doing a quick check, that seems to be one of the few theme sites around. I don’t know of another and have been making my own themes.

Comment on So, what’s really the difference between Scrivener and OneNote? by Dussault

I used Scrivener for six months and then switched to OneNote. At first it was only for the outlining capabilities, but the only thing I miss from Scrivener so far is the appearance of the program: I like white text on black background, but can’t do this with OneNote. This aside, Scrivener for Windows doesn’t compare well with OneNote. Granted, I was using Scrivener as a program to put all of my writing in.

The link for themes has been down for weeks. Do you know of another themes link?

Do you know if the Sigma 150-500mm will work on a NEX VG10 with a ‘A Mount Adapter’?

You are in serious need of Lyx, it can do everything you mention here, and is free. If that doesn’t put you off then give it a try. It offers various “classes” of documents that you can create, the memoir class is perfect for books. It prduces beautiful PDFs, and can export to Word, but not import directly. For import it needs either RTF or Open office documentsy , or a variety of other formats.

For the really advanced type of desktop publishing, there’s desktop scribus.

I use both but have not seem them as similar. I use OneNote as as project book and data collection tool, and Scrivener as a writing tool in which I collect filtered data for the piece I’m writing. Note that you can launch OneNote from within Scrivenor either via a hyper-link or by importing a OneNote section into the Scrivener research folder which gives a hyper-link to launch the relevant section.

There’s a 30 day free trial of Scrivener so it costs nothing but time to see if it works for you.

Comment on DxO and Pace Anti-Piracy Scandal!! by xPreatorianx

What they are doing is obfuscating (I hope that’s the right word.) the registry settings in a horrible effort to deter pirates from simply copying all the needed files and bundling them in another installer. Basically it’s security by obscurity. They sit there and produce a whole shit load of registry keys plus bogus files in an effort to hide the real critical files. But the funny thing is most monitoring software can pick it all up like you did with the post, so it’s already negated.
