We have another Master WindowBlinds skin this week, this time from 1MrPaul1 with the second theme in his ELEMENTALS series…Elementals WATER.  One of the things I like most about this skin is the colors and textures used.  It definitely fits the “water” theme, and is very usable on XP, Vista, and Windows 7.

The Windows "ecosystem" is complex these days. There's Windows XP users, Windows Vista users and Windows 7 users both in 32 and 64 bit versions which require their own versions believe it or not if you want to fully support it.

Our question to you, what would YOU like to see in the next major revision of Object Desktop?

If you don't have Object Desktop already, what are you waiting for?!

A great start to a new week is the introduction of a new Master WindowBlinds skin.  This was put up last Friday, so I'm sure you have already seen the newest creation from vStyler, Stripe Poker.  The colors of this skin are very refreshing, and the clean lines will guarantee this stays on my desktop for a while.

The Fall season is approaching, and with hopefully some cooler weather on the horizon, some of you may experience the beauty of leaves changing colors for the season.  I'm starting to change my wallpapers over to ones more seasonal, so I wanted to post some links so you can easily search and find some Fall and Autumn inspired wallpapers.

Let me first apologize for my lateness as I was certain I made this news post months ago, but apparently I didn’t, and these two deserve the recognition.  Hankers and WOM are both long-time members of not only WinCustomize, but the general skinning community.  They have been volunteer mods on WinCustomize for years and have been valuable members of the site.  I’m happy to announce they have been promoted to Super Wizops for their great work and dedication to WinCustomize.  ...
