YES
absolutely... WindowsFX, Webblinds, Windowblinds, ObjectBar, Object Edit, IconPackager and Logon Studio are all getting a workout on my machine... and then there's also DesktopX, SkinStudio, Winstyles and a bunch of other utilities...
yep - it's more than 'worth it'...

If your asking us (and you obviously are) then yes. I think use users might be bias so I will try to give you a honest opinion
It rocks!!! Hard!!
There are a few bugs that I have noticed after using it for over 3 months. Not all of the features work (but who needs them?) For a program in its first stage of evolution, it is pretty damn good.
It is so good that I have many plans for it in the future as far as design. I want to show my alumnus the program so maybe they will allow it to be taught in school for Electronic Design and MultiMedia. It would be a nice addition to the other programs taught.
I am waiting for the full version 2 before I aproach the idea to my school. I truly believe this is going to be a very big thing.
So get it while it's cheap!!

I bought Object Desktop mainly for WindowsFX, but now I regularly use WindowBlinds, ObjectBar, Object Edit, Tab Launchpad, and WinStyles. It's fantastic! It's like having the beauty of a Mac, but with a PC.

vimalkumar, if I were you, I'd try a few of the trial version first.
Object Desktop has a lot of cool stuff, but I found personnaly that in the end I really only use Windowblinds. But, what I like about my Object Desktop subscription is that if I wanted to use it, I could. And once in a while, I actually do. I run Desktop X or Objectbar for a day or two.
As for Windows FX2, try the trial version if there is one because it's useless on a few computers that don't have the kind of graphics adapter needed and/or the proper drivers. It doesn't work on any of my 2 computers.
So, in the end, don't rely on people: see for your self: download and run the trial versions. If there are more than 2 programs you like, then it's worth it (20$ per program vs 50$ for Object Desktop).

totally agree with paxx.
there's a bit of a learning curve
tho' the package is great once
you spend the time with it.
depends on what you're looking for.

WindowFX 2 is great! I upgraded my graphics card just so I could enjoy it more.

Listen to paxx! You might not want it all, and you could save some money for other proggies like Hoverdesk, or NextSTART. I have all 3 and find that all I really use from OD is WindowBlinds.

You can never have enough skin appications. I've purchased and registered Object Desktop (DesktopX,ObjectBar,WindowsBlinds, WindowsFX), WinStep (NextSTART and Workshelf), and HoverDesk. All have something unique to offer a desktop enthusiasts. (Did Jafo mention LiteStep yet? )
As Paxx said, there's a lot to choose from so you may want to download trial versions of the above to see what suits your fancy

I'm upgrading my Graphics card too, on Weds. Radeon w/128MB of graphics memory just for WindowFX. WooHoo! Can't wait. The new WindowFX is great.

Just bought it! Still exploring. Love the easy downloads and installs. Had bought about 4 of the individual programs and love em. Wish I had bought Object Desktop sooner would have saved a little money. Any problems, try the stardock newsgroups and here. Lots of support. Well worth the money!

There's a lot of Good Stuff [tm] in OD, but me being pre-occupied with LiteSTEP mostly only use Windowblinds, as that is the one single thing that goes best with LS, enhancing it perfectly...
