If you already have, or are looking into purchasing WindowBlinds 6, then this new tutorial might be useful for you. WindowBlinds is well known for its ability to change the visual styles in Windows Vista and XP, but it can also change and manage your wallpaper collection. Read the full article over at WinCustomize.
I was looking for a new skin for Vista and it just so happened vStyler released Vienna 3. Staying true to the Vienna series, it’s very detailed and gives a sleek new look to Windows.
JJ Ying has updated one of his GUI Champs ‘06 WindowBlinds skins to be Vista and WB6 compatible. This is a really nice skin to use on a daily basis, thanks for updating JJ Ying!
The WindowBlinds 6.1 update is available to current customers as a free update, and users can upgrade either through Stardock Central or the Impulse preview. The WindowBlinds 6.1 release includes the following updates:
Several maintenance and performance tweaks.
Option to force start button to the middle of skins.
Explorer background feature.
WindowBlinds has a free download available for evaluation, and is $19.95 for the full enhanced version. WindowBlinds is also part of the Object Desktop suite of desktop enhancements.
Updated might not be the right word, as this was almost a complete re-write. This guide, which I wrote a while ago shows you the best and easiest way to change Windows XP to look like Vista. The applications and skins that I show do not contain any spy-ware or anything like that. Some of the applications are a free download, and others might require a small purchase.
Object Desktop 2008 was just released, so I created a screencast which walks you through what is included with both Object Desktop 2008, and Object Desktop 2008 Ultimate. Each application gets a brief overview, along with a look at Impulse. This is great for anyone who might not be too familiar with the popular applications that are included.
This skin is designed for Vista, and gives a clean, dark look to your Windows desktop. This is compatible with Windows Vista, and you will need WindowBlinds 6 to apply it.
