Philly I was able to get to show up through "add registration". Thanks for your help- I've got it installed now.

Philly Thanks for that. I didn't have Impulse on the machine I want to add WB to. So I installed impulse and logged on to my existing account (same account as the machine with WB7). However, when I clicked the "My Programs" tab, it doesn't show WB. Sorry to be so dense, but it seems to me that Stardock makes this process uneccesarily difficult.

Thanks, but like I said, I couldn't find where to download the installation software on Impulse. Right-clicking Window Blinds in "My Software", I did find the "download and archive" option, but I was unable to locate the installation software after I tried that. I wasn't sure exactly what I downloaded and where it went. Please tell me, specifically, where I can download the installation software in Impulse. Thanks.

I own a registered copy of WB 7, installed on one machine, and I would also like to install it on my laptop. I understand this is okay to do as long as I am the owner and primary user of both machines (which I am). However, I can't seem to locate the installation software anywhere although I assume I downloaded it when I installed WB originally. I also can't seem to be able to access it through Impulse. Does anybody know what, specifically, I need to do?

Thanks, Bichur

Hi. I just purchased the WB6 upgrade. I currently have WB5.1. Do I need to uninstall the old WB, or can I just install 6 now? Thanks.

I'll look into Object Desktop. Thanks, everyone.

Hmmm...

Thanks everyone. I already have Windowblinds and Icon packager, so there's not much sense buying the whole Object Desktop suite. I'll look into Avedesk.

I took a look at Desktop X, and while it looks cool,I'm not all that interested in a lot of the Desktop X features...I just want to make a few of my desktop icons larger, that's all. Is there anyway short of buying Desktop X to do what I want?

I was wondering if IconX can change the size of individual icons. For example, I use IconPackager, and I can make icons 64x64- the custom icons look great (because they are part of a package that includes 64 x 64 sizes), but the software icons on my desktop (Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.) look lousy at 64x64. Will IconX allow me to change, say, just the "My Computer" and recycle bin icons to a larger size without resizing everything else? Would it be able to do it just on the desktop (I don't wan

If it helps, I haven't noticed any problems with WindowBlinds slowing down my system. I was reluctant to use it at first, but I'm very happy I purchased it.

Anyone having trouble clicking on "my account"? It doesn't work for me. I put in an e-mail to Stardock Tech support, so, if previous experience is a guide, it should be about 4-5 days before I hear back. Anyway, none of this is a huge deal...it all started because of one particular skin I wanted to use that wasn't working well.

Here's another weird thing...I tried to log out and start over, to see if that made any difference, but I can't even do that.

I've been having some problems not only with Stardock Central, but also with the WB site. When I click on "my account" nothing happens. It doesn't show up as a link when I mouse-over. Sounds like a job for WB tech support?

Hmmm...I went to Tools/check for application updates, checked the box for the WindowBlinds update and then clicked on the "update now" button...but nothing happened. I've had some trouble with Stardock Central before.

BTW- how do I get an icon to show up with my screen name on these forums?

I have Stardock Central. I'll give it a try. Thanks!

I purchased WindowBlinds only about 3 weeks ago, so it's pretty new. It's version 5.0. Is there an update?

Well, I'm back. Something screwy was going on and I was locked out of the forums for a while. It kept saying that there was something wrong with my account and it didn't recognize the password. Then, I go away for a while and- poof, I 'm back in. Anyway, I tried the DreamLand skin and it seemed fine- only one minor issue with Yahoo, but it seemed to clear up. So apparantly, there's no problem with transparent skins per se. <

Thanks, I'll try it and see if I experience the same problems or not.

I don't think so. Maybe I should try another. Got any suggestions for a fairly clean-looking one?

Well, I suppose there might be a new driver for my graphics card. I always hesitate to make an upgrade unless there's a problem. Besides, the Arrow theme was acting strange...slowing down the system, too. And it was the only skin doing that. Hmm...I can check with Radeon to see if there is a new driver available, though.

No, I have the full edition purchased for $19.99

Well, looks like it got to the WB forum after all.
