August 2022 Desktop Screenshots
Sunday, July 31, 2022 by DrJBHL | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Back at the fave part of my job here at WC...the desktop screenshot thread...June first, I had a back operation performed by a classmate of the Orthopedic persuasion who inspired my theme for this month.
So, mine this month is Darth Xtreme (recolored) ported by WebGizmos from Darth by Dangeruss. The Windowblind unfortunately isn't updated for the current version of Windowblinds.
The wall is, of course, Lord Vader.
Post yours!

Listen to the Doctor....
Yes, it's about skinning and modding [the Screenshot thread] ...so anything goes in that regard.
Just as long as what's shown doesn't break the 3 Laws...
[no porn, no politics, no prejudice] ...

I will Doc.
To be fair, if you look at my topics or posts dealing with this matter, i always include some phrase or another, informing peeps the pit falls of what i am doing right now, that too will continue. I do not want or wish, one single member to get into a situation, they can not recover from should problems arise, IT CAN GO WRONG, if it is not done correctly. Never do this on your everyday machine. Yes , i now too, have a Theme on my everyday machine, but not before experimenting on cheap SSDs, honing my skillset, working out how to get out of trouble FIRST. This is not for everyone, but to be fair, they are used well and in the correct way by Millions, just as WB10 and hopefully WB11, has and shall be. Yes Windowblinds is the safest option, as the devs take all the risks in development, hopefully removing any issues to the end user. I am not your average joe, and as such , i am an IT Pro with years under my belt, developing different skillsets, Themes, i can now add too my customisation passion, still learning, but well past the risky stage, even then, i have many man hours into themes now, how they work, more important , how they can go wrong, including the biggest skillset, how to sort things if that happens.
DO NOT FOLLW MY LEAD, IF YOU HAVE NOT RESEARCHED ALL I HAVE SAID PREVIOUSLY.
Thank you Jafo, way too old for porn mate, Politics can be boring, no prejudice her from me, i just wish other offered me the same in that regard, but i have no control over others. Peace Love and Chippy grease to all at the forum. Hey, i just want to show my desktop, but as i use 4 SSDs, i have more desktops to show.

When this thing is running right [issues with VMWare and VirtualBox] I have 3 physical OS installs and about 9 virtual.
These's also a Csirac emulator around here somewhere [first gen computer] ...

A lot of peeps are now surfing the nostalgia wave right now, rightly so, it is good to look back and smile at what once was. I did a bit of work a while ago with Virtual machines, they have a good place in any IT toolkit. My 4 SSD Multi Booting System is just my everyday Machine, the one i use for work and my forum, but i have built up a whole sloo of equipment and older gear, i think i have around 4 or 5 laptop's too, all doing there own bit of work in one interest or another. For me Tech is a passion, if it grabs my attention, i am all in, but once i achieve a new skillset, mess about with it , push it a little to see what it is capable of, i can get bored quickly. Until WB 11 gets here(i here that will be soon), Themes are for me , learning how to mix and match the best of one into another is were i am right now, slow going as it is a lot of info to swallow up and considering my Vascular Parkinsonism Dementia is pushing back at anything new i try, i do my best and i am chuffed when i have a new Desktop to show.

Thanks for the mention, Seth!

Let me attempt to settle the question of SD software vs. non-SD software.
This is indeed the Desktop Screenshot of the month thread. It isn't limited to Stardock apps although, considering who's hosting this thread, folks who show SD apps in these screenies won't be punished.
I posted Darth, which was originally Dangeruss's blind. WebGizmos ported it to Winstep. Unfortunately, many great blinds won't be updated, and that's a damned shame imho.
The take away? naroon1 has every right to post his screenies. I would only add a note for those folks who value their OS warranties. Altering system files will void that warranty, and as far as I know, the "patching" by msstyle type apps will void the warranty.
Here's a good article on how to repair W10 and W11 system files, if you need to:

Please keep posting dynamite screenies, everyone.
