Actually, I do intend to re-subscribe to both Object Desktop & WinCustomize... So the WC browser comes with the WC subscription? Excellent. I don't suppose a fully-integrated utility comes with the Object Desktop subscription, does it? I can't tell if Impulse has the ability to browse WC, download skins, and install them the way SD Central did...

So, it's been a couple of years since I last used SD Central or even purchased the Object Desktop suite. I booted it up today so I could browse WinCustomize through its built-in interface, but as it was trying to update its own components, it basically crashed. Several tries yielded the same result. Figuring there must be a newer version available, I check online and it appears to not be made anymore, but seems to be supplanted by something called "Impulse." Okay, no

No matter where I would put the new icon set, I'd still have to set each and every item to use that new icon, I believe. And I'd rather have a new icon set in a different folder anyway just for organization and cleanliness purposes. Any other ideas?

I recently upgraded my copy of ObjectDock to the Plus version and am enjoying it thoroughly. However, I was wondering if there was an easy way to change the icon set from LaST to something else? By default, ObjectDock automatically uses the LaST icon theme set. I've downloaded several icon sets from the IconPackager section of the site which I've used to change my default icons in Windows. However, I'd also like those same icons to

Muchos gracias, senor! I actually had gotten an email response from him letting me know of the situation. It is the same as in those other two threads. Thanks, and I can't wait to start using it!!

Tried emailing him two days ago; no response. And it's not just Wallpaper XChange. I think it's all of his software products, because I got the same result when trying to download SysMetrix.

Ah, okay... Just those two things, eh? And how about if I want to add items? Somehow clone one of the existing items? Removing should be easy enough, I think. I was kinda hoping for an easier, more intuitive method of adding items than going into the Developer mode and mucking around with properties... Something like dragging-and-dropping would have been nice. At any rate... That sounds good, so I'll give it a whirl. Now how

Yes, I'm quite a newbie when it comes to DesktopX stuff. For the past year, I've had the old Longhorn desktop theme loaded in DesktopX (the one that comes with it) and just left everything at their defaults. Now I've decided to go further and download a few themes and give them a whirl, since I was never fully satisfied with that Longhorn theme. Well, I've found one or two that would fit the bill nicely, only I need to be able to customize t

Exactly. That's the error page that appears in IE. Sounds like the sysmetrix.skwire.net server is down or has been removed. Temporarily or permanently, I don't know. In the meantime, is there a chance some kind soul out there would be willing to host this file and post the link here for people like myself to obtain it? Even if only for a day or two? Or even to email the file to me ([email protected])? This wouldn't be a problem if there

I've noticed that most DesktopX Themes require the use of Wallpaper Xchange in order to change the wallpaper while that theme is active. Fine, I'll be happy to download it. Only... It won't download!! I've tried Firefox and IE from two different physical locations with essentially the same results. Firefox says the connection is refused when trying to DL it; IE goes to the ubiquitous "Page cannot be displayed" or some such message page. I

I've finally been successful in creating a bootskin, for the most part. I am not worried about putting a progress bar in it, just to thave the bootskin image showing for the duration of the boot. But, like a couple of other folks here, the image was shifted to the left when I rebooted and it is always like that every time I reboot. Sure, I could go into PhotoShop and displace the image to the right, with the pixels wrapping around to help offset this, but it seems like this would be unnecessa
