Hi. I like the old Macintosh look and I'd like to get a theme that is Windows 7-compatible. I want to find a theme that looks like System 7, but all that comes up is the "OS X" one. I'd make my own but I don't have the knowledge...

How To Create Dreams

Hello.. I just purchased DeskScapes 8 for my Win8.1 custom PC, but I notice there's barely any dreams that are high resolution.. So I got the thought that maybe I should create my own. I came to the forum to see how this might be done, but I can't seem to find that information anywhere. Would someone inform me of the process by which dreams are created or link me to a place that shows how this is done?

I purchased Windowblinds, Modernmix, and Start8 and everything is working good except when I open an explorer window the background is all black and icons inside the window are all distorted and blurry. Here is a screenshot:

Is there any way I can fix this?

If you are a subscriber to Object Desktop, it gives you a bunch of great applications like WindowBlinds, DeskScapes, Start8, ModernMix, and more.  We also make a download and update manager specifically for Object Desktop users so you can easily manage the apps available to you with your subscription.  I wanted to give you a look at Object Desktop Manager, and how you can take full advantage of it.

Icons (still, but only occasionally) falling out of fences (Win 8.1)

Dear all / Stardock

 

The (very) old problem persists, albeit only occasionally: I have a fence down on the left side of my screen, and several fences across the middle of the screen, and sometimes operations on items in the middle fences, or, I think, on the general desktop, cause icons in the left fence to keep their position but drop behind their fence, or to jump to a difference fence.

Evidently this is a breakage in basic functionality and, thus, fairly serious.

Please help...

What happened to Global Warming?

When I put my first above ground pool in around the late 90's we were able to open it in April and start swimming in May.

Now my pool is just opened and still not warm enough to swim in

 

I'd like some global warming back...

Will ObjectDock be continued or not ?

Hi,

as a long time customer and subscriber I PLEASE want an honest answer if ObjectDock is still in development or not and if it EVER will work right on 64-bit systems (shortcuts always pointing to c:\program files (x86)) problem. I am really sadly tired of the update politics and public relations on this matter at Stardock at the moment (again). Seen too many good SD-programs going down the drain I relied on (aka DesktopX / RightClick...).

A general update-plan would be great and also a n...

collected images to start skinning

This is my first step into the skinning world. I've bought WindowBlinds and it came with skinstudio 8.

I've got my idea for my theme and my graphics programs to edit images.

Where I choke is setting up the images. I wish I had a folder of all the base images used in a basic skin. Then I could just replace the images... Something to just get my foot in the door as it were. 

Is there anything like that out there? Surely someone has made a .zip file like this?
If not then I g...

Can ObjectDock launch 64bit apps from a folder yet?

I have never been able to launch a 64bit application from a folder shortcut in ObjectDock. Is this possible?

 

Explanation:

I use the 64 bit version of FireFox (named Nightly). It is installed at "C:\Program Files\Nightly\firefox.exe".

I have a shortcut to the executable in a folder named "Internet". The shortcut target is "%ProgramW6432%\Nightly\firefox.exe -p Nightly -no-remote". This shortcut works fine when double-clicked.

I have a shortcut on my ObjectDock to the In...

Why can Stardock Central update Stardock programs without requiring a restart, but the downloaded installers can't?

OAuth and OpenID login tools have large security defect.

We were all pretty frightened by the ‘Heartbleed’ exploit.

This may be worse, because there’s no ‘easy fix’ to the “Covert Redirect” vulnerability in both the open source login systems to steal your data and redirect you to unsafe sites. Read about this one on Neowin, then went to the original source at c|net.

Beware of links that ask you to login through Facebook. The OAuth 2.0 and OpenID modules ate vulnerable.

Need some Antivirus Techie advice

In my house for a long time we've all used Norton Antivirus however Now I'm hearing it may not be the best solution? So I'v heard of other antivirus programs but I'm not sure which is the way to go. Currently I have Mcaffe installed on our computers because we got it for free from comcast. But is there something better? Plus I'm kinda annoyed with Mcaffe as it keeps quarentining files that don't need to be and even though I'v restored them, with the next scan they get quarentined again. It get's...
