New WinCustomize Subscriber Skin: Rockstar by Stardock Design!
Get it while it's hot!
Thursday, July 10, 2008 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize News
As part of our ongoing effort to give subscribers more bang for their buck, we added professional skins to the subscription package earlier this year. To start things off we released Stardust, a new skin by Adni18. Today we're ready to release another skin, and give you a hint of what's next in the pipeline.
Our second Subscriber-Only skin is Rockstar by community veteran Hippy!
Rockstar turns your desktop into concert stage with the look and feel of classic guitars, speakers and amps. Rockstar comes with 6 great substyles, letting you pick exactly the kind of amp you want. It's the perfect skin for music enthusiasts, especially the rockers out there.
If you're already a subscriber, you can get the skin HERE.
If you're not a subscriber, then you had better sign up RIGHT NOW!
Our next Subscriber skin is going to be Boulder from MikeB! A great skin that will give your desktop a clean, chiseled look. Expect some teaser previews of the skin soon!
Stay tuned for news on MyColors and the full Rockstar Suite later today!

The IconPackager looks great, but Stardock's so impress about the suite they feel they have to charge more than expected charge for it.
The argument why they charge so much for other suites is due to use of copyright materials being used, therefore they have to pay the third party for using them.
Now you go and purchase a $69 Object Desktop, Stardock is charging you all over for the same software. Wait! They give you $5 off. I'm not impressed!
Some terre à terre (French word to refer to the lowest class of trash) will be replying to my comment against my opinion. While Stardock can charge whatever they want for the own contents, it's that kind of gestures that drive others to force life for a much enjoyable living. That's how clear I will get.
I just want to let PixelPirate knows that the Icons that amazing and they deserve any $ for hard work put into them.

Elsius... here's how the pricing works for MyColors Themes...
- Full Theme: $19.95
Why: MyColors Themes are bundled with the software required to run them. You are paying for the technology as well as the theme itself. This is for users who have no software and want JUST the theme. - WinCustomize Subscriber: $14.95 (when applicable)
Why: WC subscribers, in the case of Rockstar, already have free access to the skin. However, being a WC subscriber doesn't guarantee that you own the software to run the rest of the theme. So if you are just a WC sub, you can get the whole thing without having to worry about software for $5 off - Object Desktop Subscriber: $9.95
Why: You already have all of the software, so we knock off $10. You're just paying for the skins at this point.
Obviously, the best deal is if you're an ODNT subscriber since you've already purchased the tech to run the theme.
If you went to the Rockstar Theme page on MyColors, you'd clearly see a large button for ODNT subscribers. Before yelling about how we're ripping subscribers off, please read the product information.

I was going through some heart-attack
I've always wanted to support Pixelpirate again right after I've seen the RockStar Iconpackager screenshot, I was expected the usual price though the IconPackager is PRICELESS.

Where was there mention of a media player gadget? I don't believe there is one so I'll need to track down anywhere it says there is one.

I would not bet on that but time will tell.
But you do wonder how you can make a Rockstar Suite and not make one as part of it.

I think Think green is going to be a free theme entirely.
We have some cool MyColors suites in the works for ODNT users but they would come out FIRST for ODNT users.
