Stardock has launched a new site for premium themes for users of Object Desktop. These themes use the latest version of Theme Manager and offer an easy way to purchase and use premium themes.
https://www.stardock.com/products/themes/
To kickoff the new themes site, a new premium theme called IronWorks has been released!
If we already have some of these themes, can we download them for use with Windows 7?
I like it. Already bought the Iron Works suite. Fantastic. Hope we will see all the themes treetog has shown us very soon. Would be nice christmas presents.
It could have been a FREE one for the first 
i'm with greg. if we already purchased these premium skins when they were first released years ago, do we get the upgrade for win 7 without cost or do we have to buy them again?
Check if you see them here, Pas: https://forums.wincustomize.com/account/regs
Ok. Sorry. I just hoped that those links would bring you to the updated files.
Plus: For the ones that were MyColors, do we have to re-download MyColors to use them?
2of3, i appreciate it. honestly, i didn't know that site was there. you pointed out a needed tool.
Yes. On the old WC, there was a my registrations button on the top right. Now it's only 5 clicks to find it.....call it progress!
I'm ready to purchase. I need to know if I buy all six or will the old ones be updated?
If you purchased them, those links (for the Theme Manager version, not the MyColors version) are the same as what is being sold. We use the same links for both, so if one gets updated, the other will, too. Almost all of them already ran on Win7 with no issues.
The MyColors themes are not being updated and will fade out over time. We are going back to our roots and offering Theme Manager themes as the focus.
that's really cool, there's a list of supported skinning apps?
I apologize for perhaps being a bit thick on this but I'm not clear on what to do if I already own a suite via MyColors. For example, Dragon.
I do not have MyColors installed at this time, but I do own Dragon (and others) purchased via MyColors.
If I now wish to install it, do I have to do so via installing MyColors, or can it be done via this new (or perhaps old) method using ThemeManager? If possible, I would like to have just ThemeManager and not both platforms, particularly as one is being phased out.
Thanks.
Nice site but I noticed a mistake
Only one of the screen shots for "Winter Wonderland" are of the actual theme.
The Windows 7 one is correct, the other 5 are from the "Winter Theme".
The screenshots (what sells the art) really need to be bigger, they are too small and distorted imo.
great site tho, best of luck with it. 
I installed Ankh via ThemeManager and the preview pic is a desktop screenshot of the Stardock Design Release Schedule.
Pretty sure that is not what is intended.
The screeny on the site for the W7 version of IronWorks is identical to the Vista shot.
A lot, but not all, of the MyColors themes also had/have an unencrypted ThemeManager version available after purchase. Check the link 2of3 posted in Reply #7 and see if Dragon has the extra download link. What you're looking for is 2 download links on a single line for the MyColors theme, the ThemeManager version should be the one on the right. Don't know for sure if Dragon came with the TM version.
Ironworks looks nice 
(Might want to show off the icons and gadgets more in the preview? - C'mon, make me buy it 
).
I forwarded by pm all problems up through reply #19 to KarmaGirl to distribute to where they should go for action.

Thank you for the tip. It appears as though a couple do have TM d/l, but some don't. It looks like Magic and Dragon don't for example, which are both featured with the new TM. They have a second d/l site, but it is for the extras such as gadgets. Gloss Grey and Burgundy do have TM d/l, but in TM they do not show a Windows 7 substyle (as Ironworks does) so I'm not yet clear on whether they are for Win7 or not.
I think I'll wait a bit and see what washes out over time. It looks like Stardock has their hands full right now and I have plenty to play with over the holidays.
I sent a PM to KarmaGirl about the theme release schedule showing as the preview screen.
