Quick question about the EULA for Fences version 1.01.143.  

Am I allowed to install this on a corporate machine without purchasing a license?  This release had a paid for and standard version.  If you wanted the additional features (which I did not) you needed to purchase a license.  Here is the EULA that came with my version (for those who may still have it installed it is located here by default: C:\Program Files\Stardock\Fence\eula.txt).  This EULA says nothing ab...

Hello,

 

I sent an e-mail but did not receive a reply so far - not sure on if it made it´s way to Stardock at all ...

 

Can someone please reset the installation counter (my e-mail adress should be visible to Stardock staff) for at least my ObjectDock Plus license?

 

Thx,

 

Jens

The last community skin we did was the Holiday Community Suite back in 2009.  I wouldn't mind doing another winter holiday suite, but that's for later in the year.

http://forums.wincustomize.com/363398/

So lets start getting ideas for the next community suite.  Do we go for a season like Spring or Summer?  Another holiday?  A different type of theme?

Lets hear it and discuss it and get moving on the next one.

Here’s a look at some of the most popular CursorFX themes on WinCustomize.

Lately, I've taken to tweaking and modifying certain skins so that they are more to my liking. However, I would not upload them and claim them as my own. Does anyone else do this as well? Like I am thinking of making a copy of Frontier and tweaking it. It's an awesome skin, but I feel that it needs a hover element when selecting something on the start menu. Just a little touch to make a great skin just perfect for my own use!  

It may even be fun to see screensho...

I have already searched for a solution but found none, so I am forced to post here.
Details:
WindowsBlinds 8, Stardock Fences 2.0, Windows 7 SP1

Problem:
The software works correctly but at startup it always defaults to the standard windows theme, so I have to manually go into settings and re-apply my theme at shutdown/restart.
I have tried adding windowsblinds exe to startup folder but this just loads the config panel and it still defaults to windows basic theme.

Please advise on fix....

Never mind.  I went back to the desktop and found the Unlock, which took care of my issues.  Sorry for the bother.

A couple of weeks ago I noticed that some icons that were installed on the desktop from installations could not be moved into Fences.  Didn't have time to troubleshoot then.  Today Fences stopped allow me to drag a fence to another location or to resize it (in addition to being unable to accept icons).  Updated to the latest version, r...

Yeah…you guys and girls are probably pros at this stuff by now. I figured I’d do this for the folks who want to check the topic out – especially since Yahoo’s email got hacked. Also, it isn’t a bad thing to be reminded of from time to time.

First, always be suspicious. You’ll see an email purporting to be a prize, or a ‘fix’ for a problem – like a patch for software, or against malware, or of account compromise. That’s the...

Every time I install Windows it runs very smooth until I install .NET framework or .NET updates. What is .NET and can I live without it?

Been slacking a bit as of late on the ol' WB production...

I thought I might explain why... I have been working for a few Music Software companies designing new interfaces for their upcoming software plugins and libraries.

I'll post some here as I have time...

Thanks for everyone's patience !!!

I can be also contacted @ the link above by anyone in need of a UI design

Thanks everyone!

This is a follow up from a prior article about net neutrality (here).

Undoubtedly, you’ve heard of the recent 9th Circuit decision essentially striking down net neutrality which ruled that the FCC’s rules regarding anti-discrimination and anti-blocking. Those rules were:

“The second rule prohibits broadband operators from blocking lawful content on their networks. These rules differ in strictness depending on whether the provider is a fixed-broadband provider or a wire...
