What downloads?

Monday, April 27, 2009 by squidie | Discussion: Object Desktop

I'm runnin Vista Home Premium and using all the software that came with Object Desktop Ultimate, I'm also using Cursor FX. But what I'm unsure about is what downloads will run, some say Vista ready and some say WB6 ready. I'm using WB6. Now what downloads can I use, only ones that are Vista or WB6 ready or any?

 

Thanks in advance

some wb6 ready skins do not have subskins for vista. the reason for this is simple. some skinners do not have vista. therefore, they do not make sklins for vista. if a windowblinds skin is vista ready, it is wb6 ready, also. so, download any vista ready wb skin you want and you'll be fine and dandy. honestly, you can download almost any wb skin even if it doesn't ahve a vista subskin. wb6 can adapt almost any wb skin for vista. granted, the logoff/shutdown buttons on the start menu won't be skinned but they will be using the default vista-style buttons instead. also, some skins having anything but a 'square-ish' lower start menu may show the search bar outside the start menu in such skins. anyway, using any vista ready wb skin will give you fantastic results. one more thing, some skins may need altered to suit your preference regarding the left side of the start menu. almost all vista skins have wide enough left panels. there are a very few that do not per my preference.

As pas said ya can use almost all the WB's.  Most of what I use are the older(3-4 years ago) blinds.  Love them the best.

there are different apps for bootskins and logons for vista. using the apps to change the bootscreen and logon for xp on vista would cause damage, i'm sure. use logonstudio vista and bootskin vista!
