[quote]Fourth, could we please have update notes when themes are updated? As for finding out themes are updated, If you go to Impulse, you will see what has been updated. If there's a major update, something is usually said on WC or the forums about it.[/quote] Knowing a theme has been updated is as easy as looking at MyColors/Impulse.... but thats not what we are looking for. Update Notes = How its been updated. That said, even the normal Stardock products are s

Title says it all. I found this in my Gamasutra RSS today. Interesting read.

[quote]We don't get to pick the free ones. Stardock will make them available. Quest is outside of of the subscription. It's there for everyone just "because". [/quote] Fair enough, just as long as I don't get any of the state-sider ones (University/sports teams/etc), and none of the ones I've already been buying :) BTW, for those who originally got the original Magic theme given to them free for extending their subscription, do they get that updated to th

[quote]Quest is just a freebie for everyone. The ODNT one will come throughout your subscription.[/quote] Is that a case of 'will be' coming through the subscription, or 'is'? Because as yet I've no found any way to chose any 3 Premium skins as free. Yours, Ann-Marie

Generally I like the new Impulse and MyColors software very much, but I've got some concerns too, predominantly with MyColors at the moment - I'd put it in a MyColors forum if I could find one, but since its all part and parcel of the new OD, I figure this is a good place to add the concerns. a) When you first announced the new packages (OD2008 and OD Ultimate) you stated that OD subscribers would be getting MyColors + 3 Premium MyColors themes. So far, I've only found the Quest on

I've tried with Stardock Central, and with mIRC... both ways, when i try to connect to irc.strdock.com, port 6667, I get an 'Unable to connect to server' error and in mIRC's case a '(connection timed out)' extended error message. Is there an alternate route to get to the chat channel? I can get to other IRC channels just fine, so mIRC isn't being blocked by my firewall (I've even tried turning it off just in case). Can anyone help? Yours, Ann-Marie

Never mind - my bad. Thought I needed to use the Diamond(Vista) version to get the Aero effect, but changing to the Diamond(XP) version fixes the crashes (and still gives me the Aero effect). Didn't fix the CursorXP/WB Z-order addendum I added though. Rebooting cures it, but it'll happen again after a time. BTW, shouldn't WB6 know if its on XP or Vista, and show the appropriate version - rather than allowing either to be used to XP?

Anyone else run into Internet Explorer 7 crashing when skinned? I'm using Windows XP (SP2), Diamond(Vista) skin, and IE crashes to desktop when i try to add a bookmark. System Information from WB6 is as follows: WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 6 (6.0 (beta build 21 x86)) WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC WindowBlinds appears to be activated on this PC Your machine supports per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

I've been trying to get through to the chat server via Stardock Central all day, and I'm getting 'Unable to resolve server' errors? Yes, i've got through before only a few days back, and yes, i've even tried turning off my software firewall. Is it down for some reason? Yours, Ann-Marie
