WindowBlinds 6: Video Demos & Info Guide


WindowBlinds 6 is a big deal for us here at Stardock. It represents a major step forward in skinning and what artists can achieve in a skin. Animations, transparency and blur effects, and more. Coupled with SkinStudio 6, WindowBlinds 6 is something we're all very excited about here. To that end, we've been working up a lot of informational content to let you know exactly what WB6 is about any why it's something to get excited about. Island Dog has continued his outstanding work in developing demo videos by making two WindowBlinds 6 videos showing off the features and improvements. One video is for Windows XP users, showing off the enhancements we're bringing to Windows XP, and the other is for Windows Vista, showing off how we're improving the newest OS offering from Microsoft
  • WindowBlinds 6 Preview Video - XP
  • WindowBlinds 6 Preview Video - Vista
In addition to the videos, we also have a very detailed WindowBlinds 6 Info Guide posted for those interested in reading up on version 6 and what it means. The guide quickly walks you through the visual differences between XP or Vista standard UI, and what you can achieve with a fully-loaded WindowBlinds skin. To read the guide, click here.

Stardock has supposedly begged our beloved Phrozen Crew (I though they
were over????) to not release the warezed version before the official release.

This team presently has a version which is the production release lacking a few
minor features, none of which are cosmetic though. The have hacked the
licensing scheme which was some jazzy one having to do with xml licensing
abilities.

This proves that warez is simply a marketing medium made by the software
companies themselves, and not evil individuals and groups trying to ruin the
businesses of these companies.

Try before you buy..........ha ha.

I italicized the "Himself" in there... (the other way around) is generally used as an insult...
