Happy New Year Stardock and WinCustomize!

from WinCustomize Forums

Well, folks...here we are, together on New Year's Eve...with the desktop you chose (almost) unanimously.

WB/Winstep theme is Evolve WB by Master BoXXi, Winstep by Masters DanilloOc/WebGizmos and brought to you by Winstep Technologies/JcRabbit, wall by me and AI nano Banana.

To all the great, hardworking folks at Stardock, and to all the great people here at WC...to our community whether active or not, the happiest, healthiest and bestest (yes Jafo, that's a word ;)  ) new year EVER!

Doc :waaaa:

MS is still doing updates on windows 10, until oct 2026.
They are??? I was given a notice from MS in Oct. 2025 that my system was finished receiving updates, and suggested I upgrade to a new computer with Win. 11. So, I installed 0patch Pro to keep my system safe instead. And it's doing a very good job doing just that. Did you get a 1-year extended support from MS, Barb?

Hey, Reaper. Thought the MS option free updates for a year was discussed in forums. Glad you're happy with 0Patch.

I guess I didn't read that post thoroughly, Doc. :blush:  Anyway, I would rather support 0Patch, than have to deal with MS's BS! ;)  And there's no rebooting with 0Patch! :sun:

Fair dinkum! I give folks a choice. Some want free because their machine is old (like "them me" :-"  ;)  )

That's a colorful setup, Reaper. Did you make that Rainlendar skin? I recognize the graphics used in that skin is from a wb by Ross Fairbanks (Z71) called Light Mark, and he also made a Rainy to go with it but it's not this one. Just my usual curiosity :D

Well I found how to get rid of the white area on the task bar, whew!

Windowblind is  Don's  Geared up     https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/windowblinds/9355/

I also experimented with Fences settings.  The wallpaper is mine. 



 

Really like the colorful wall, Barb. Nice combo!5*  B)  |-)

No, I didn't make the Rainy, Jan. You are right on the money; it's Light Mark, by Ross Fairbanks. I have hundreds of these rainys, widgets and gadgets from years gone by and every now and then they come in handy, to mix and match with different skins. :grin:

Some of them are really nice, Doc and even comparable to WindowBlinds in some cases. But I still prefer WBs! ;)

Vad_M is truly a Master Skinner. I hope he's well (he lives in Ukraine). Az's wall is an excellent match, spiffy widgets, Chuck. Solid. 5*  B)  :thumbsup:

Liking this quite a bit. I knew someone was going to use this wall when I saw it yesterday.
P.S. Are you ready for the big freeze this weekend?
