Nuage Redux & Optix Updated for WB6/Vista

Now with extra "Shiny"

Thursday, October 11, 2007 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize News

People are asking more and more about when they'll see more skins supporting WindowBlinds 6 and Vista specific features.  Last week, we added a filter to the WindowBlinds gallery so you could quickly find skins that were optimized for WB6, Vista or both, making life easier when someone would ask in the forums about such skins.

Today, we have two major skins that have been updated to work fully with WindowBlinds 6 and Windows Vista: Nuage Redux by Essorant, and Optix by MikeB314.

Make sure to check out both of these skins, especially if you're a WB6/Vista user.

That version is actually WB6/Vista ready.  It was built during the beta, targeting compatability.

yeah, all I see is the 82107 skin for Optix. that 1.5 months old already. for those who have this "older" one it's confusing. what is new?

If you participated in the WindowBlinds 6 beta, you probably already grabbed the Optix update weeks ago. If you were not in on the beta however, and just got WB6 since it was released last week, then you may not know that Optix is already updated for it. So, it's news to those people. To be clear, nothing has changed in the skin since the 82107 version. The release version of WindowBlinds has simply caught up to the skin.  Also, it has been marked with the site's new Vista Ready/WB6 Ready labels.

Have updated my StingRay suite to WB6 and Vista today. You'll be able to add it to the list soon, also.
