MyColors
What Good Is It?
Thursday, August 15, 2019 by RedneckDude | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
Hey guys in charge, whoever you are.
I have about 20 MyColors files in my downloads that just add clutter. They don't work, and are encoded, so I can't even extract to use them, could someone please just remove them from the list for me?

I have 18 of them. You can't open them, they are all setup.exe files. It's a shame you paid for these and can't do anything with them.

Mycolors were great, don't know why they just can't be used with theme manager? it should not be that difficult to convert them. or at least allow people to extract the window blind and icon packager theme, most if not all would still work.

This can be done, but the files are still encoded and will not apply correctly.
Then they must have encoded them within the las couple years because at one time you could extract the files and use them, I still have some in my drop box that I can use.

Are you still whining this in 2019?? I thought you got the idea last time I have replied to you specifically??
Themes in below link are fine without pixelations (encoded) of WB skins,couple with Collegiate(University),Basketball (NBA),Hockey (NHL) and exceptions of Camaro and Corvette which are no longer available to purchase.

Saint Row 2,Mustang and Harley-Davidson Raw are encoded WB skins,because:https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/306746/get;1677477
One theme still encoded without any reason: Think Green and it's free.
It amazed me that it has been almost 10 yrs,people still do not know to backup files or save file at somewhere instead of blaming software company for lost of their files,etc.,

"It amazed me that it has been almost 10 yrs,people still do not know to backup files or save file at somewhere instead of blaming software company for lost of their files,etc.,"
So what is the problem with the software company providing a copy to its paying customer if for some reason they did lose the files? Hard drives die, cd's can get lost during a move, I even had files backed up on the cloud with adrive and that company had some sort of a crash a few years back and I and most people lost all their files, shit happens sometimes.
I do have some mycolors themes that I have not used for ages but there are other ones that I would gladly pay for if they were available but I know that is not going to happen, I am just sayin.

Sorry, but the problem is that Stardock has offered a lot of stuff in the past, people bought them, but then Stardock never updated a lot of stuff, MyColors for one, and all the Subscriber Skins are ancient too, for XP and Vista. I emailed Brad asking about the Subscriber Skins and making a recommendation, but no answer yet, still waiting.

Again, I asked to have them removed. Not whining. Go be somewhere, you're not helping here.

Most of the MyColors files are under licensing so they cannot be distributed or broken up, so sorry.
As far as hiding them in the account, I will pass that on.

I managed to extract a few, just now. No WBA files tho. I must be doing it wrong. Oh well, life goes on.

....................., the gadgets don't seem to work though.
Of course,they are not going to work on Win10 which the main reason Desktop X ceased development after being restricted by MS.

Unless of course you're feeling generous and want to make em work, or at least supply me with the WB files unencoded, since I did pay for them.
