As I said before, no problems with SDC, often I experience difficulties logging on and such, but it's nothing I can't solve, and it is getting less frequent day by day. "That however, is not the issue at hand, nor is it the reason why I started this thread. Stardock has chosen to use banner ads on their website to increase their revenue. As I said before, that's their prerogative, but I feel it is wrong; it

Do I have problems with Stardock Central? Of course I do. Who doesn't? I am quite practiced in how to solve them and expect the problems with alpha and beta programs. The only problem I have there is that component manager no longer works and Stardock Central is still in beta, leaving nothing that is "stable" to use. That's fine. I accept that. The Object Desktop system wouldn't work any other way. I realize and am grateful that I can download the newest versions of these fine products without h

If Stardock doesn't have investors, I am sorry I implied that you did. I was positive that I have seen an investment page on your site before, that's what I was going on. Maybe I misread, or something, anyways, I am truly sorry about that. I don't want to sound hostile or rude, but print has a way of doing that to you, ya know? However I still strongly disagree with those tactics. If you you guys are hard up for cash, I'd be glad to pay more for your products, seriously, they are more than a bar

I was nice about it. I sent him a link to stardock.com and told him it was available on object desktop, at the time, I couldn't tell if he was trying to solicit warez or just a confused user or something. Sheesh, yaknow Eric, for future reference, skin authors are probably not the best people to ask if you are trying to find pirated software, just a heads up there bug guy! <img src="http://images.st

Made sure Jafo, my system is clean (triple-checked with adaware) and I am at that page, looking at a banner on the top directly across from the stardock logo, checking out an excellent ad for a lendingtree realtor! always needed one of those!

It's stardock, on the component manager page, (the link in the 1st post) I don't think it will show up in the wincustomize browser, or in the stardock central browser, and I am aware of the difference between wincustomize and stardock. Stardock should also be aware that paying customers use other browsers, such as internet explorer. I am not mad anymore, just slightly irritated, and disappointed. Allowing your paying customers to be spammed is unacceptable, and it cheapens everything about the c

I just went back there, this time they wanted me to join the navy, That's not so bad, The one I got first was extremely deceptive, and I'm sure not at thier intention, but man that steams me, when I am a paying OD customer and I get subjected to that... I was there to Re-download component manager because WB expired > and then the new version wouldn't install ><img src="http://images.stardock.com/image

https://www.stardock.com/products/odnt/cm.html WAY low class, Stardock!

I've seen this before when I tried to do one a couple of months back, never solved the problem but I think it has something to do with logonstudio resizing the picture

I think static got the first question right For 2, make sure "Translucency IS being used" is turned off for that section, only enable that attribute if you are using a targa, never a bitmap. If you already know this, it might be the version of WB (Betas have some bugs with start menu right now, I know first hand). For 3, not sure, I have always built my stuff off of the Luna skin, but you can pull up any sk

HI, Just thought I'd say that I mentioned this problem to the Skinstudio newsgroup, and they are looking into it. Also, for all WB artists, if you have upped a skin in the past few days using the latest Skinstudio/Windowblinds you might want to check out if this is affecting you, I know I am not the only one with this problem, I also downloaded a couple of newer skins over the weekend with problems in the start panel, just a heads up! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/joke.

Yeah, I noticed the same problems on a couple of other skins too, really nice looking ones that have been put up recently, with incomplete xp start sections. I don't think it is WB that is doing it, I think it's the way skinstudio packages the .WBA file... (MHO) Is Stardock aware of this, and if not where is the appropriate place to tell them? BTW thsnkyou for the kind words Delicious, means alot condidering the source. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" border=0 ALI

First off, thankyou for taking the time. The background is black, but there should be a button between the background and the text, like in the screen, why it is doing that I don't know cause it's fine for me, even when I delete the entire skin and download it from here. What version of WB are you running? Maybe there is a bug in a bug in WB? I am really confused about this But at least I know it's not j

I got a comment on my skin that the XP start panel was showing up completely black, which shouldn't be... like if I forgot to add the "translucency IS being used" feature to the section. I haven't been able to contact the person who posted the problem, and it looks as it should on my machine. If someone could download it and tell me if the start panel looks as it does on the screenshot, or if it is in fact all blacked out I would really appreciate it. https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?libra

It's more time consuming than it is "HARD" but it's not easy either, especially if you are thorough and do everything in the skin. LOTS of images, especially now with the shellstyles and all. Give it a try, Objectbar makes it rather easy to canvert your windowblinds skin over to it. That's what I usually do; a WB and an ObjectBar that work together.
