WindowBlinds 5 now available!
Start personalizing Windows!
Tuesday, November 29, 2005 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Stardock has released WindowBlinds 5 to the public today. WindowBlinds allows users to completely alter the look and feel of the Windows interface by applying visual styles (skins) to title bars, buttons, the Start bar, borders and more. Consumers customize nearly everything else in their environments: their cars, homes, clothing and cell phones are based on their personal preferences and needs. With WindowBlinds 5, users can now make their Windows desktops look and feel the way they want.
WindowBlinds 5 introduces a broad range of new features, including per-pixel alpha blending, resulting in smooth or glassy title bars and borders that realistically distort the content behind them; as well as the ability to change toolbar icons, progress animations and the hue and saturation of the Windows interface.
With over over 8 million users worldwide, WindowBlinds 5 is the most popular desktop-enhancement utility of all time according to CNET’s Download.com where it recently passed the 9 million download mark. It is also used by companies such as Microsoft, ATI, nVidia, Alienware, Nintendo and many others to provide custom Windows user interfaces for their customers.
WindowBlinds 5 is $19.95 as a stand-alone program or for $49.95 by purchasing Stardock’s award-winning Windows enhancement suite, Object Desktop. A shareware version of WindowBlinds is available for free download.

1-3 times a day, but it comes up everytime you change a skin too. What do you mean how many days left? is the shareware like a trial?

Izzee: If it comes up every time you change skin then you are trying to apply a per pixel skin.
What is the name of the skin you are trying to apply?

| we just don't support it on downloaded skins. |
Neil, does that mean that the skins for wb 5.0 that I made will not work with the shareware version? I only need to know because the email will start flying in if that is the case. I will need to do a form letter or something.
Thanks for any feedback.Reply #29 Tuesday, November 29, 2005 3:15 PM

Anyway. Thinks it's od, that transparency has been added to the new version, while I could get (at least some kind) it with VistaXp in the 4.9 version...?
