Wednesday, July 9, 2003 by I.R. Brainiac | Discussion: Stardock Software
I bought SkinStudio XP But when i look under the "help about" it says just SkinStudio ver. 3.0.0 build 619.No reference to XP.Is this SS XP?Also i see references to SS ver.3.9.?.Is this the newest version?Which one am i supposed to be using?Stardock webpage is a little unclear about this.

From the website............. https://www.stardock.com/products/skinstudioxp/media/
What SkinStudio XP is
In essence, SkinStudio XP is WindowBlinds 3 bundled with SkinStudio and optimized to work only on Windows XP. It will not function on any OS other than Windows XP or later. When you install SkinStudio XP, your appearance dialog is modified to support additional visual styles along with new buttons to make it easier to add, delete, and edit them.

Latest non-beta release is 3.00.008. Only Object Desktop subscribers have access to betas.

Then my guess would be that 3.0.0 build 619, is the same as 3.00.008.

Brainiac, make sure Stardock Central is set to show pre-release versions.

That will be 3.9.2 build 707

pictoratus.... I'm assuming he doesn't have an ObjectDesktop subscription, because if he did, he wouldn't have purchased SkinStudioXP.

Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to tease you. 
ObjectDesktop is worth it though. And you may be able to get an upgrade price.
