Mixing and Matching your icons and your skins

Wednesday, October 1, 2003 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News

So you've found the ultimate skin...but unfortunately the ultimate icon package you just got doesn't work with it.

The new version of SkinStudio on Object Desktop can RECOLOR your icons enmasse.  I used it today to turn icons that were blue to orange (to fit my Halloween theme).

Brimo, this is already available for ObjectDesktop subscribers, there will be a new Beta release for registered users today or tomorrow, so if you have purchased SkinStudio before you will be able to play with it too.

This feature together with the other cool features like recoloring Winamp anod other skins (sometimes not even supported by skinstudio - like Sysmetrix) will NOT be available in the Free version of SkinStudio. Although the free version will come with the demo of how it works (it will just not save the changes).
there is a new article on recoloring other skins here:

Which version of SS is this? I have v3.00 and can't see anything newer on Component Manager.

Is "Component Manger" even updated with new releases these days?

In Stardock Central, the lastest version (3.96a) is "pre-release" so you have to have SDC set to display pre-release versions. The last "full" version was back at 3.0.
