The 4th of July is rapidly approaching and as with many holidays this is also a good opportunity to customize your desktop a bit.  A new WindowBlinds skin from k10w3 called ‘American as Apple Pie’ has been shared with us and gives us a great looking skin with a patriotic feel to it!

New Master WindowBlinds Skin: Frontier

Master Skinner vStyler has kicked off the weekend with a new WindowBlinds skin called Frontier.  Described as a “futuristic” theme the contrast between the dark and light colors look superb.  He also includes a light version of the skin and both are compatible with XP, Vista, and Windows 7.

Frontier for 7, Vista, and XP

We want to say a big congrats to the newest Master Skinner here on WinCustomize, Xiandi.  She has been with WinCustomize since around 2007 and during that time has made her way up the ranks with beautiful skins in various categories.  Using her skin, especially the WindowBlinds ones, you can definitely tell the extreme attention to detail she takes and that no doubt is one of the reasons her skins are always high-quality.

Take a look at the latest WB skin, Mezzanine.

I am lousy with dates and such.....but as long as I remember my Wedding Anniversary and Terry's birthday all is well....

 

One date that Hankers reminded me of [dunno how he does it] is June 24 [and it is that already now, here in Australia, so....]

Happy Birthday, Frogboy.

Wincustomize.com's [and all of Stardock's] members are all "numbered" [eg, I'm '23']  and so it goes that Brad is Number '1'.

But he's more than 'just'...

Maybe that’s not the greatest title, but as you may already know I like when a bunch of skins come out based on a WB skin, or just an idea from the community.  Jingo is a skin made for WindowBlinds by Master skinner essorant, and I have seen some fantastic looking skins that are perfect with the WB skin, or on their own.



I wanted to give a roundup of these skins so you can easily find and download them.
