HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\DesktopX has a Password value. It's not the actual password. I think if you rename it to say PasswordBak DesktopX will allow you to change back (haven't tried it).

They all do different things. Stardock apps like DesktopX, ObjectBar and WindowBlinds are intended to work with the current shell, whilst others can replace it. WindowBlinds skins windows - it change how the frames, buttons and controls look. On XP it also skins the taskbar and start panel. ObjectBar does bars, like the aforementioned XP taskbar (popular on 9x), but it also does mac-like top-bars and indeed just about any sort of bar you want. DesktopX is something a b
This thread kinda breaks the message board on 800x600 - the title doesn't have any spaces in, so it all gets displayed as one non-breaking line . . .
Ahh. The thing with this is, there was actually an Exile skin bundled with it, and (IIRC) a shareware copy of WindowBlinds. What probably happened is WindowBlinds uninstall got triggered by it. Try reinstalling WindowBlinds?
Good question . . . but I have a better - "why are you asking in this thread?"

As another example: I and two other skinners were asked (through a third party) to create a certain skin. Together we recieved 3D graphics equipment with a value roughly equivalent to Dangeruss's proposed fee (either above or below depending on how you view engineering sample hardware). Sometimes you can be offered non-monetary rewards, and if you're interested in them, they're often "worth" more than an alternative money offer. The GUI Olympics was another (somewhat unorthodox) example
jcg: Could you back up that assertion with a link? And the fact remains, assault rifles are intended to kill people. Buckets of water and pantyhose aren't. That's the difference.
At the top of each skin/theme/cursor library there is a "Download" link that takes you to the program you need to install.
No, it would translate into more cracked copies. 30 day countdowns are one of the easiest sorts of protection to crack. Far better not to have the full functionality in the trial version in the first place.
Umm . . . MS paint is not the pinnacle of graphics programming, Lightningraven. Have a look at Paint Shop Pro ( http://www.jasc.com/products/psp/ ) or Photoshop ( http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/main.html ) or the GIMP ( http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html ) - they are all good programs used widely by skinners.
Lecrayon: Frogboy said "if", and "in the future" - he didn't say that WB had stopped selling well. From the volume of posts on the WB newsgroups I'm pretty sure sales are going as strong as always.
JavaBrain: Are you sure about that? Starting on startup seems to be a fairly vital thing - I understood the fact that it wasn't was a bug rather than an enticement to upgrade. After all, it doesn't occur on non-XP systems.
Oops. Sorry about that. Was getting ODBC errors and assumed it hadn''t gone through.

The site got made over a couple of weeks ago - it's possible a few skins got re-included by accident, in which case probably just deleting them again will get rid of them.
This would probably be better done as a small program. I'm sure you could whip up something that monitored the cursor and moved two always on-top lines around.
If the load from WC got dumped on the other skinning sites, it''d turn into a game of "who folds first". Either that or they''d just turn on bandwidth limits and a lot of users would get their skins slowly, if at all. DeviantArt is about the only place I would say could take it, and even then . . .
Really? I thought it did that in shareware . . .
/me wonders if we're going to see any porting requests . . . I'd be glad to see Blackcomb on OSX. *g*
Erm . . . does the WB3 AddUser tool not help? http://www.windowblinds.net/default.asp?page=download
It's not updated yet to show the WC subscription - just write in what the money order ($19.95) is for and what email address the account is (and your name) and that should be OK, I think.
You know, if I saw that I''d just think "well, my wallet isn''t compatible with this site either", and leave.
