Stardock has released two Mycolor Suites
Monday, July 7, 2008 by Elsius Saint | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Stardock has released two Mycolor Suites: Basketball desktop Theme and Khado Desktop Theme.
Basketball desktop Theme is basically the same typical NBA themes without a special team logo; nothing more and nothing less. Its Iconpackager is the same as any of the NBA theme without a particula team logo.
If you don’t care about any of the NBA teams and like the design, then this one is for you. The theme is well made by artists who know how to create clean theme.
Khado Desktop Theme is a very nice looking suite made by a well respected artist who needs no introduction. The windowblinds skin looks real nice. Its Iconpackager is not a WOW and looks like a Déjà vu, but quality work. It would have easily been one of the $4.95 master skins.
In
other news
Rock Star has yet to be released! Known for its beautiful and highly inspired IconPackager made by one of the greatest artists of all time. The spotlight (The heat) is on the one creating the Rock Star windowblinds. Everyone is expecting it to be one of the 5 top of very best windowblinds ever made. The expectation is so high that the skin is being hold from being released until they find it safe. The heat is on and burning! The judgment day will come!

Now I wish they were putting those info out up front. Nice to know Basketball desktop Theme as an animated start menu and Rock Star is waiting on MyColors 2.5 to be released. How long wit might take for MyColors 2.5 to be released? I think they should release a beta to let RockStar out.
Thanks for the info.

^And yes, they should have a beta - a public beta. That would give the entire community (beyond Wincustomize - i'm talking about Winmatrix, DeviantArt, JCXP, ect.) a chance to try it out.
I just don't wanna see MyColors reviews like those on C|Net again...

The basketball skin has magic pink corners on the non per-pixel XP version.

Will this Version have Vista64bit support?

Yes, these are the major features:
Vista 64 bit support
Substyle support
Wallpaper tab (so you can easily change just the wall that you are using)
We also worked out a way to compress animations so that animated start menus are more efficient.

Nope, it's being released on schedule.

Does that mean me downloading it(the windowblind only) from the subscriber resources page last night was a mistake?
I wondered why it was there but there was no front page announcement.
Before people run to check I happened to look when reading this thread and it is no longer showing.

They STARTed the substyle love.
Wonder if that's as far as it's going.

Actually, that isn't true. It has an animated start menu (the NBA teams do not). It's basically for people who like basketball but don't want a team specific theme.
RockStar is waiting on MyColors 2.5 to be released. 2.5 supports substyles, and RockStar has substyles.
