RipOff

Did anyone get an email to upgrade from windowblinds to get MyColors, Desktop x, my skins and a couple of other things for $20? I did it thinking I would get to use some My Colors themes other than the four that could already get with windowblinds. Wrong. I'm just wondering what did I actually get for my money. I emailed Stardock and got the runaround. They said I could get the four free themes from My Colors that I could already get before I upgraded. And they will not refund my money. I'm just wondering what did I pay for.

I get the impression that you should look at the receipt email detailing what you bought. I don't remember that offer exactly, but why not give us some details about what exactly you bought and what you thought that included or, email stardock sales?

Object Desktop Standard (which is what the promotional email was for) comes with the programs listed here:

Bootskin Pro
 
WindowBlinds
DeskScapes
 
IconPackager
Thememanager
 
DesktopX

SkinStudio

If you review the Object Desktop page (https://www.stardock.com/products/odnt/), it clearly states:
Object Desktop Subscribers Now Receive 4 Free Themes Annually!

You will be receiving 4 free MyColors Desktops over the course of the next year.  They automatically get added to your account when they are released.  In the meantime, you can get some free ones to hold you over here:

Hope that clears the confusion up!

It means you get the MyColors *software*, not all the themes (with the exception of the 4 free subscriber ones).
