Windows 7 and Old Windowblinds Theme

Tuesday, November 10, 2009 by Gman17 | Discussion: Stardock Support General

I am about to get a new computer which is running Windows 7.  First of all, it looks like there is a new version of Windowblinds for Windows 7 correct?

Also, one of my favorite Windowblinds was the "Zippo" suite.  SO awesome.  Will I be able to use this in the new Windowblinds and Windows 7?  Or would this particular one have to be updated to be used with the new version?  I hope I can still use it.  This will determine whether or not I renew my subscription.

I find that if you use the small icons option for the Windows 7 taskbar that most Vista ready skins will do very well.  Not 100% Win 7 ready, but good enough for daily use.

I prefer the small icons anyway, especially on my netbook.  I'm all about screen real estate.
