June 2024 Desktop Screenshots
Friday, May 31, 2024 by DrJBHL | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
June is here...I'm sticking with Tubular by Lightstar (recolored), and Tanger Winstep ported by Giz from the WB by Lightstar.
The wall is Planet Arrakis from Frank Herbert's Dune (actually Mars), and Space Guild Heighliners transporting Duke Leo Atreides and his House to Arrakis from Planet Caladan to take over spice production from House Harkonnen.
Post yours!

Here's what I have on mine
It's the Colony theme by MikeB314 (Bryant) and Chad Ross with some mods by myself. Still tidying up and add some more.

Thanks for reposting, aceuk007. Colony was a great skin...could I ask you which version of Winstep Xtreme you're using? Did Colony give you any problems?

This is colony DESKTOP X on win7. I did think about trying to convert it to winstep for my future planned win 11 laptop. But redneckdude said it will work on win11 so I'll try it first.

I asked because it has a winstep (https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/winstep/338/) and I thought you were using that.

Here's House Atreides home planet, Caladan, the water world with a Spacing Guild Heighliner getting ready to fold space to bring Duke Leto, Lady Jessica, Paul, Gurney Halleck, Duncan Idaho, Thufir Hawat, Dr. Yuey and House Atreides Army to Planet Arrakis, the Spice Planet also called Dune. WB - Omicron by adni18, Galaxus7 ported by Giz to WSX, and the wall a melange of images and blends...

I didn't notice that there was a winstep version. I'll give it a look if I get winstep as I only had a trail version which has now expired. Thanks

I don't know if the Winstep version will work as the skin was made for v. 3 and we're on 22.4 atm, if memory serves.

I thought It had expired but I still have a few days left on my winstep trail. Tried the theme out but could not install it correctly as available options have changed and you can't follow the install instructions. Shame.

Agreed. I'll ask JcRabbit if he thinks it'll work.

aceuk007, I asked Winstep's owner and coder (Jorge Coelho), and he said, "No reason the theme shouldn't work."
Here's an explanation of where to put the folders after unzipping the theme:

Hope this helps. I honestly urge you to get Winstep Extreme. I absolutely love the app and there's really no end to the ways one can customize it, without any conflict with any other skinning app...you can even make your own menus!

Test driving bazzite as a possible daily driver. Really reminds me of my steamdeck.
