My Colors and x64 support

Any ETA on support for x64 based Windows Systems?

I bought 2 skins for my colors, before realizing that it is only 32bit, I only have 64bit Operating Systems, Since I own Object Desktop I was only planning on using the components through WindowBlinds and IconPackaer, yet without my color installed I can not even access the components (which obviously makes sense).  So what I'm looking for is an ETA on 64bit support.

it may be  while, unfortunately. i'm not a stardock rep, so i'm not in the loop as to when apps will be released or updated. i imagine there are other apps and games that have to updated for x64 use first, namely IconPackager. i, also, purchased a MyColors suite before realizing it wouldn't work. you can contact Stardock via phone or email and ask for your credit/debit card be reimbursed as i did. they gladly did it for me. it took 2 or 3 days for it to show up in my checking accout, tho.

I understand you can install mycolors via Impulse even on a 64 bit OS and assuming you have a full WB and IP already installed it should work, though you will need to apply any skin from the MyColors UI at least once.  Once you have done this the WB skin will show in the skins list under WBConfig.  I am unsure if the icons show in the IP list or not.

It installs but the themes are still encrypted. When you try to apply a theme via MyColors it applies the classic theme. I'm not on x64 at the moment but I remember checking the system info in MyColors and it was missing the WBSrv.dll

What I was told was "summer if we can get all the time we need to do it in".

The developers are scrambling here with all the current projects so for 64bit please be patient. It will not be forgotten. So far as I have seen they have taken quick shots at it already to see what is needed.
