theme manager and winstyles.
Friday, February 27, 2004 by thehighlander | Discussion: Stardock Software
i posted this as a reply to another question, but thought if i started a new post, more people will see it. i had winstyles and theme manager installed. last time i went to SD Central, it told me theme manager wasn't installed, so i reinstalled it. problem was, it didn't recognize my old suites, and winstyles didn't work anymore. so i went to my program file for object desktop. go to winstyles/themes, and copy everything to theme manager/themes. say yes to replace all to avoid duplicates. i did the same with winstyles/suites. you will have all your old thems, plus the ones that come with theme manager, and it works. love being able to change skins on all my apps from one place. hope this helps.

A quick question.
I have been using Object Desktop on Windows XP for a couple of weeks now (Loving it). And when i read in the documentation I get the impression that ThemeManager replaces WinStyles.
Is this a correct assumtion? I currently just have Theme Manager installed. Am I missing out on something?

Thanks. 
Then I will hide the WinStyles app from the list.
