Stardock has released Liquidox for MyColors

Stardock has released Liquidox for MyColors.


“Liquidox” for MyColors gets a perfect 10 while “Dance Floor” gets a negative 10.


Stardock has released Liquidox for MyColors. Lot of nice work done to it as you would expect. The IconPackager is a masterpiece - A very nice suite to have. But I can’t say the same for “Dance Floor”, a one time one of the best suites for XP. Very poor Vista update! You might as well still use the old “Dance Floor” and let Windowblinds V6 tricks it for you for Vista. Not much was done in that Vista update. The bar at the bottom of windows explorer is simply plain and could have sealed the deal for them had they used the graphic of the lighting sphere on the start menu to make it more outstanding to say the least. Logoff buttons are the same as the one on Vista. They have not done a better job than Windowblinds V6 would have done by default.

Liquidox for MyColors goes over the top.

Honey I'm home!


Since Stardock released Skinstudio 6, I thought I was out of business for good. I just decided to load skinStudio for the very first time. I'm impressed!

Here's my little "Dance Floor" personal update. I 'm only getting warmed up

that's interesting. i just tried to buy liquidox while getting  my discount since i previously pirchased the suite. when entgering my name and email address. i'm told they aren't in the system. that's odd. i know i am. i can also see Liquidox listed in my list of purchased apps and skins sent to me by entering the needed info at support.stardock.com. personally, i'm blaming highlander, milksama, and seabass. one of them has to be the author of the conspiracy!

NO! This "Dance Floor" is not the Official "Dance Floor" It's my own updated version as well as the wide screen updated wall. The IconPackager is "Cosmos" recolored by me.

Same here. I have gone for the ODNT discount to support a bit.

Ditto! The only thing I am not sure (the email doesn't show the purchase date) is whether I have purchased before or after November 30th 2007.

Same for me... I have an update serial # email that shows I purchased the Liquidox before Feb 2007 but I can't seem to access the 4.95 discount.

Hopefully it is just a glitch for now.

I thought someone said that the discount doesn't actually show up but is taken off at time of purchase...I could be wrong though.

Snidely - If you already have Liquidox, why would you want to purchase again through MyColors?

I see Abracadabra is on the list for release soon. I purchased this suite many years ago from Pixtudio just after Treetog released it and it became my all time fav. Can't wait to see the update.

messiah, it's because the original didn't have a version for vista. i bought it the day i was released and it was for xp only. btw, i hope a version of MyColors for vista64 is released soon. i can use it on the laprop but not my desktop rig.

Amen to that. Those garbled up WB's are not really attractive (beside the fact that they won't load).

oh right. Too bad you can't get the vista version for say 10 bucks since you purchased the original...

From the product page:

* If you purchased the Liquidox Premium Suite prior to November 30th, 2007, click here for a special upgrade offer.

And:

Have an Object Desktop Subscription? Click here to get the discounted price!



It seems that Stardock is doing it's best to respect prior purchases but still get paid for new work (Vista).

Just got the report this morning.  I tested with my account, and cannot reproduce.  I will check with KarmaGirl to see if I can duplicate with her account still.  If you're able to upgrade now, please let me know.

Ok, tested with another account that had LiquidOX from the day it came out.  I found the issue, and have fixed it.  Let me know if anyone still has trouble upgrading from the Premium Suite to the MyColors version.
