Great article Island Dog ! Very easy to follow. One Question, to change the Hue (color?), it has a slider and a color bar above it. However when i drag the slider all it seems to do is change the saturation, from color to black and white and not the colors or nothing at all? Is this the same for others ? GigaByte69
Thanks All has been much better since i uninstalled everything on system, installed stardock central and impulse, however did all application installs from impulse, and just use stardock central now for wincustomize browser and discussions. Im just behind my Router and my windows firewall and panda antivirus 2008. Logging in fine today :) Thanks GigaByte69
It seemed to connect after i posted the message. thanks, i have now tried once again the changing the sever to server 2, however on restart of impulse, it is back to server 1 again, these setting are not being saved or or are they changed everytime impulse is updated? I also noticed after the update today, impulse is no longer having to restart, like previous updates? GigaByte69
Is anyone having issues with logging into impulse today (May 6 2007), it just says logging on steadily... I cant even change my logon server till it actually logs in? Is this a known issue? Should you be able to choose which server to logon to before login ? Patiently waiting to logon to impulse to browse and use my applications.... GigaByte69
Just installed the DeskScapes 2.00.058 update and after requested system restart, my currently applied windows blind theme, Stardock Molten is acting up. Now, when i click on the start menu, the animation of the dragon at the top of the screen is blinking white squares on it? I have no deskscape currently applied, and all was fine before update. So i reapplied a different theme then went back to molten, and like magic it was fixed :) strange issue, just thought i would let all kno
Hi iRXEVAN What update level of Vista Ult. Sp1? What is your cuurent Video Card Driver Vers.? I'm running the Dec 2007 169.25 (last whql driver) from www.nvidia.com. Do the Windows Dreamscenes (if downloaded and installed from windows update)work fine? Have you tried the demo Dreams in Deskscapes? [quote]I just purchased DeskScapes but loading a wallpaper does absolutely nothing[/quote] Are you downloading Wallpapers or Dreams from WinCustomi
[quote]When I go to Control Panel\Personalization It is always defaulted to Windows Standard. When I try to apply Aero, and go back, its back at Windows Standard. Any ideas why this is, or what I am missing?[/quote] Hi bodean What theme are you applying with window blinds currently? "Areo" is the deafault windows theme(style), when you apply a windowblinds theme, it is no longer "AREO" Compliant and uses all the window blinds features. You can go, as Bichur sugge
Why are the Stardock, Objectdesktop forums so disorganised. Trying toi find topics that interest me is very frustrating and tedious. When someone makes a post can it not be automatically directed to a related folder? For instance the stardock support board is full of everything from hundreds of posts for galactic civilizations and sins of a solar empire, which i'm not interested in, but there are posts all through the list of windows blinds and every other title. Is there no organ
I happen to really like my drive scan, gives you a great picture of where all your hdisk space is being gobbled up. It works awesome in every single OS too, no issues for me in Windows Vista Ultimate, please dont remove this one :)

[quote]Magic was a free suite to customers who renewed a couple time. Pirate, however, was never free. Magic is applied trough ThemeManager. It will not work with MyColors as it is not a MyColors package. I would suggest uninstalling ThemeManager, rebooting, then reinstalling it through Stardock Central. You may also want to delete the suites, then redownload and install with the fresh ThemeManager. You can get your download links from the lookup at: www.stardock.

Hi Last year, Object Desktop/WinCustomize subscribers were granted a couple special free pre-release full themes, Pirate Desktop and Magic Desktop. I however cannot install these anymore? They are not recognized by My Colors as a theme, and the file is a Theme Manager file. I can import into theme manager however, i cannot apply them, they partially complete then lock computer. I want to use these two products to dress up my computer. Any help out there....
Windows vista 32 Bit SP1 rc, i have not been able to download using stardock central either. Just says failed everytime for skins, cursors, wallpapers.... have tried for 2 days now.

Whoops ! sorry must have been reading another post , or my coffee intake has slowed down, hehe. My aplogies. However, my windows vista sp1 rc i have tweak vista installed ever since the beta and rc, no issues. The only thing i did when installing is to, disable my antivirus/firewall before uninstall then install newest relaease. All is great.
hi, when did you purchase the cursor fx? I bought mine end of december 07. I waited till the full version, not the beta came out and installed it after removing the beta/rc/ there was issues with the registration system, contact stardock support and they will send out a new updated serial key, fixed all issues for me. <img src="http://images3.stardock.com/wc/icons/wc.gif
I have been running WIndows Vista Ultimate with the sp1 rc1 and it runs beutifully. no issues with window blinds or cursor fx. cursor fx did have issues with the beta and rc but as soon as the full version was released, all cursor vanishing issues disapeared. love it :) i also run nvida 8800 gts 320 mb on smd x2 6000 +. newest graphics drivers are a must <img src="http:
Hello I have a few niggly things in sound packager, you may know about them already, but thought to see if any progress is being made. 1. when importing packages after downloading from stardock central or wincustomize, in sound packager i have to constanly re-enter by browsing the last folder i downloaded or installed to. Why does it not remember this setting? 2. In soundpackager, on the packages screen, the packages are in a long up and down list you have to scroll through.
[quote]just a query, is the deskscapes version 1.02.037 an update of deskscapes version 1.90 b 0.023 because my computer says it is an update. just find it odd. [/quote] Hi, have you checked to make sure your selection box for "show prerelease versions" at the bottom of the screen in stardock central is checked? When it is unchecked, i see the beta as curently installed and the 1.02.037 as an update dated 1/15/2008, which is the current full release product of Deskscapes 1.02.
Hi Devit, GigaByte has no issues with the wincustomize browser. The only thing i have had issues with over the last while is it does not always show whats in the folders, i click on the view comments button at the top then the libraries button, and like magic they they all are. If its still updating the categories with new items it may bump you out as well, so just click back on the folder to view and you may have to redo the comments then the libraries button. Cheers, Gigabyte <a hr
Thanks for the updates, and will wait for the final releases of the products.Cheers
Hi I am running Object Desktop Suite, and my "edit in skinstudio" button in wb6 is not working. I do have the beta version of skin studio pro 6 installed. Has anyone else seen this or no of a way around it. I want to edit some of the suites i have downloaded into window blinds. Yes, i can load skinstudio, and individually load the skin files. Your computer has a Windows Experience Index base score of 5.4 Your Windows Graphics Experience score is 5.9 WindowBlinds
yes its similar, but mine is maybe worded a bit clearer than youre post is. But thanks for the help nighttrain, amazing we both have similar issues, mine does describe a different one than yours did though.
Hello I am running the newest builds of window blinds. Some interesting things i have noticed: 1. Everytime i restart the system, the main windows blinds interface pops-up on the screen ? 2. The UI no longer shows the currently applied theme, it always defaults to Windows Areo, on restart? 3. WB 5 used to run on xp, without any running background processes, wb6 on vista seems to always have one wbvista.exe running, is this just the task bar tray icon ? cheers<b
HiI cant even open window blinds at all, i can no longer run either 5 or the 6 beta. previous the 6 beta was running, then i updated to new beuild, then the ui became black, so uninstalled rebotted and installed 5 again, , no it wont work either, i get a constant message to reboot system for either version 5 or six, i have both uninstalled at the moment till i hear what is happening. <img src="ht
