Shellstyles are 'wonky' that way for me to. Sometimes you'll get the shellstyle that the theme uses, and sometimes I'll get the standard windows XP shellstyle. I've found that switching to the diamond theme gets things back to normal, for a short time, then all of a sudden the shellstyles will change.

I believe it's all about more than just the one server.... So - the site has been brutally slow lately, and all we get for an explanation is a wink? And does subscriber mean OD subscriber, or are we being locked out of the site too?

This is a brutal error Stardock. Can we get this resolved somehow, so people don't end up wasting money on one or the other product. (WB or CursorXP) Because from the comments above it sounds as if this problem is too much for Stardock to fix. Maybe an incompatability warning should be included with each product...

I'm having all kinds of trouble installing this beta. I'm jumping straight from the 4.6 official version (first time WB5 install). Earlier on it was crashing SDcentral when it came to the activation step. So, I uninstalled/reinstaled SDcentral, and the install went OK apparently. My OD subscription was seen OK, SDcentral did not crash, and prompted me to reboot XP. Following the reboot I'm greeted with a WB activation prompt. Entering my OD

Brad, when DesktopX first came out I'm sure it was covered in all the press to a greater degree than this is. So, In a way, sour grapes is an appropriate title for this rant. Personally, brand loyalty is ridiculous. Whatever runs the best on my machine is what I use. Right now that's AveDesk - running 4 desklets @ 5 MB RAM total. If I fire up one DesktopX widget I'm looking at 5MB+ for that single widget. I'm an OD subscriber, so DX is bought and paid for - it's resource usage that keep

I looked in the user overrides section, but could only see where the theme font could be changed, not the color. The titlebar font had the option to bold, italic, etc, but that's about it. I've tried in the display properties-appearence-advanced settings for menu, titlebars etc, but the settings don't 'take'. Looks like I'll have to dig into SkinStudio...

I'm using the new K2 WindowBlinds theme, and it's almost perfect for me except for one thing. I find that the fonts used throughout the theme are too light, and as a result are a little hard on the eyes. What's the best way to darken all the fonts in a theme at once? Can it be done somehow using WB, or will I have to switch them all in SkinStudio? (hope not, as I know jack squat about using that app <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/joke.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle"
