Well done Carlitus in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Noticed over at xicons.com that your "Noia" set made it into the top ten downloads for November, with 8,290 downloads in just 1 week, which is quite an impressive statistic. Well done.

After seeing threads about where people live, what they look like, what music they listen to, I'm curious to know what people around here do for a living.

Reply to Macromedia and Stardock in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Jafo- thats what I meant, Macromedia installed before Stardock stuff ,sorry, I should have made that clearer. Remembering back, I had Dreamweaver 4, Fireworks 4 and Flash 4 installed long before I installed anyhting from Stardock, and there were no problems when I first installed Windowblinds, then when I updated to a later version of Windowblinds things started going awry, and got worse when I updated to the MX series. Maybe cleaning out the Registry when uninstalling helped... Either w

Just uninstalled Object Desktop and removed all references to Stradock from the registry. Re-installed Object Desktop components and now all Macromedia stuff works faultlessly. Maybe the order in which things are installed impacts upon performance, kinda like the way ATI Catalyst driver installation works, but needless to say I'm a lot happier now that everything is skinned and functioning correctly. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/bigsmile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle"

Your lucky paxx. The windowblinds problem has been around for a while, there were a few message a while ago in the WB newsgroup reporting this problem, but no answer was ever forthcoming if my memory serves me correctly. What I've found also is that it's not confined to my machine, also happens on my laptop, which is running WB 3.41 at the moment and with a different installation of MX suite, and also happens on my work machine, again with different installastion of MX suite, and with WB 3.5.<br

Macromedia and Stardock in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Will some Stardock apps, noticeably Windowblinds. Window FX and ObjectDock, ever be fully compatible with Macromedia programs? For example, skinning any Macromedia proggy with Windowblinds causes toolbar buttons to not function; applying shadows to menus with Window FX causes the menus to freeze, and locks up the proggy so I have to bring up Task Manager and end the "not responding" program, thus losing everything since last save; restoring Macromedia proggys from ObjectDock causes ObjectDoc

I don't think I'll be a "switcher" just yet . So I'm grateful for Stardock and the their products that can at least allow me to have something that looks a bit like OS X...

JamMeister- Hell, if I could afford one I'd buy one too, but here in Australia they are considerably more expensive than in the US- around $10,000 (Australian) for a PowerMac to match the configuration and performance of my PC...

With the amount of interest generated by ObjectDock, I am curious to see what kind of desktops those that use it look like. Here's my rather plain effort http://skins.wincustomize.com/tinkergaloot/desktop.jpg
