Reply to MyColors Replacing Premium Suites in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I just noticed something about the new suite delivery system. The graphics are coded. Unless I am missing something, this means we can't use any of the graphics to make widgets and such. I do have Mustang working now, on both my XP PC, and Vista Laptop. But in the blinds folder, the graphics are coded. I was hoping to make a DX Theme, for personal use, of course. Unless I could get permission from Stardock Design to release it. But with coded graphics, I can't make it to begin with. Bummer!

[quote]The X64 version of MyColors will be out soon. VERY soon or you'll be hearing about deaths at Stardock. Purely accidental of course. Heh, glad I added that last part. [/quote] I am running x64 Vista Home Premium and My Colors works fine for me.

[quote]Do tell how you got it working. It installs, but doesn't decrypt any suites for me.[/quote] I don't really know, I just installed Impulse, then My Colors, and all my suites work just fine. I actually have more trouble with My Colors on x32 XP than x64 Vista. This may sound dumb, but you are trying to use MyColors suites, right? The older theme mgr. suites don't work with MyColors. Just checking.

Also, off subject, maybe, I just bought the Mustang suite several days ago and can't use it. It will not activate thru my colors. It is being looked at by someone at Stardock Support, but it is taking time. I may wait a while before buying any more suites so they can work out the bugs. I don't like paying for stuff that I can't use.

My question is this: Will the old suites still work with the old theme manager? Call me a tightwad, but I don't want to pay an extra $4.95 for a theme I already bought for $19.95. I once bought a skin called challenger, and when it was updated, I got the new skin for free. Personally, I think the same should apply here. I will probably just continue to use the old theme manager for older themes. I could be wrong..... (:(

I have 4 walls recently uploaded to WC and approved. But I do not see them in newest uploads, wallpaper gallery, or even when I search. They don't even show on my site in recent skins. Does anyone know why? :CONGRAT:

personal site in Stardock Support General WinCustomize Forums

I have emailed 2 people suggested to me by a moderator and I still get no response!!! When I try to go to my personal site, I am taken to an old site I had under a different email address. It does not show any of my skins, etc. I just uploaded a new skin, and it went to chubbyhusband/wincustomize.com!! It should have gone to PuterDudeJim/wincustomize.com. I really wish someone would fix this. I am going to write Brad about it and see if I get a response. It was either Zubaz, or Zoomba thet

[quote]One think i'd like to be pointed out is if all those programs will have skins stored the same way as WB6 skins in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Stardock or if there will be a possibility to leave them elsewhere (on a second partition for example ... )[/quote] Yes, it would be very nice to be able to store them on a different drive, I have gigs of stardock stuff on my PC. That's why I call it my Stardock Box!
