Windowblinds 5 Sensation!

Tuesday, April 1, 2003 by Fuzzy Logic | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Despite Windowblinds 4 being released this week, it was announced today Windowblinds 5 development is well under way. Unlike its predecessors Windowblinds 5 will use a new skinning technology called 'virtual skinning' to complete the Windows skinning experience.

Tired of that bland coloured monitor frame? Well Windowblinds 5 will use its vitual skinning technology to expand the skin outwards to cover the monitor frame. The skins will also employ smart buttons for those of you with monitor controls.

With the latest version of SkinStudio now available some of the top skinners are already working on WB5 skins.

It's not known yet if virtual skinning will extend to peripherals. A Stardock spokesman was unable to comment further.

More information to follow...

Press release to the world today april 3, 5050. WindowsXP for automobiles was out on store shelves today, by evening 15 billion copys were sold. How everby late evening Microsoft found codeing errors in the program and had to release it's first service pak. It seems the car would develope DLL errors and lose it's tire on the drivers side, and hood would always fly open. Microsofts workaround for this until it releases SP1 is call a cab or take a bus. In other news today WB 500.673a has now added planetary skinning and Stardock is working on adding black hole skinning with in the next 2 to 3 weeks.

First report of "out of computer experience" as would be hacker overshot the latest build of windowblinds and actually broke out into real life. Said the hacker on his return... 'It's cold and scary out there. There is no back button, no refresh. Popup control doesn't work and speech and reason is the only option when actually meeting other people."

I'm hoping one of these new betas will incorporate odour skinning. I'm sick of my brother's shoes stinking up the house.
Hmmm... imagine an odourSkin smartbutton outside the toilet so you can press it before you go in and is time to turn off 5 minutes after you leave.
